Developing a Framework for AI-Assisted Values Education in the Batangas, Philippines Context

Dr. Ma. Leticia Jose C. Basilan — 2025-12-03

The growing presence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in educational practice presented profound opportunities and ethical questions for teachers of values education in the Philippines, particularly in Batangas Province. AI technologies reshaped learning processes, assessment, and pedagogy, yet their integration into values formation remained under-conceptualized. This paper developed a framework for AI-assisted values education that was responsive to the said province’s context. It synthesized theories of moral development, character formation, and digital ethics, and examined Batangas cultural values and policy directions under the Department of Education (DepEd). Drawing upon global research on AI in education and the national movement toward ethical and responsible AI, the study proposed a five-component conceptual model grounded in cultural alignment, teacher competence, ethical AI design, pedagogical innovation, and values assessment. The framework highlighted the indispensable role of teachers as moral agents and cultural mediators, ensuring that AI amplified humanistic learning rather than replacing it. Ultimately, the paper argued that a contextualized model of AI-assisted values education could strengthen moral formation, civic responsibility, and digital citizenship among Filipino learners in the emerging AI-driven society.

Coordination and Alignment: On the Relationship between the Newly Revised Vocational Education Law and the Opinions on Deepening the Reform of the Modern Vocational Education System Construction

Yixi Zhang — 2025-12-03

The vitality of law lies in its implementation. The implementation of the newly revised Vocational Education Law requires the support and alignment of a series of policies and regulations, among which the Opinions on Deepening the Reform of Modern Vocational Education System Construction is one. The Opinions has three legal attributes: mixed Party regulations, high-level administrative regulatory documents, and the propositions of the CPC. This means that the Opinions is more likely to be effective, more conducive to the realization of reform goals in the field of vocational education, and also implies that its coordination and alignment with the newly revised Vocational Education Law need to be more precise and appropriate. The basic approach for such coordination and alignment is to be consistent with the fundamental principles and spirits of the newly revised Vocational Education Law vertically, and pay attention to the boundaries and alignment with other legal norm groups related to vocational education horizontally. The essential contents of the alignment and coordination between the Opinions and the newly revised Vocational Education Law should include: enhancing the key school-running capacity of vocational schools, taking the vocational education college entrance examination as a breakthrough to improve the enrollment system with vocational education characteristics, integrating talent cultivation standards into the construction of the vocational education system, delegating core administrative powers, significantly strengthening the management authority of provincial governments over vocational education, and clarifying the micro-level administrative powers of municipal and county governments.

Research on the Application Scenarios and Ethical Boundaries of AIGC in Secondary School Art Creation Teaching

Pandong Ma — 2025-12-12

In recent years, Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC) technology has gradually been applied in the educational field, bringing new possibilities to traditional art teaching. Secondary school art creation teaching has long faced challenges such as insufficient student creativity stimulation and homogenized teaching content. AIGC can rapidly generate diverse visual materials, providing innovative tools for teaching. Through case analysis, literature research, and observations of teaching practices, this paper explores the specific application scenarios of AIGC in secondary school art classrooms and the ethical challenges it faces. The study found that AIGC can assist students in conceiving ideas by generating theme-related images, for example, by using style transfer techniques to broaden creative thinking, while also providing tiered learning support for students with varying abilities. The use of this technology may lead to copyright disputes, such as whether AI-generated content qualifies as original work, and issues such as the decline in students’ practical skills due to over-reliance on technology. The randomness of AIGC outputs also presents potential conflicts with the cultivation of humanistic values in art education. Based on this, the study recommends clarifying the tool nature of AIGC in teaching, designing curriculum norms in conjunction with copyright regulations, and balancing technological efficiency with artistic expression through teacher guidance, ultimately achieving effective integration of technology assistance and art education.

Analysis of the Causes of the “Slow Employment” Group among College Students and Research on Precise Employment Promotion Strategies

Hao Wang — 2025-12-03

This paper aims to deeply explore the causes of the “slow employment” phenomenon among college students and propose targeted and precise employment promotion strategies. Research suggests that “slow employment” is the result of the interwoven effects of multiple factors, including individuals, families, society, and the economy. Specifically, it is manifested in the transformation of college students’ career concepts towards “value realization”, the buffer space provided by family support, and the fluctuation of high-quality job supply due to macroeconomic structural adjustment. To address this challenge, this paper constructs a precise employment promotion strategy system with universities and the government as the main bodies, emphasizing the improvement of the efficiency of person-job matching through personalized employment guidance, deepening school-enterprise cooperation, optimizing policy supply, and resource integration. Finally, from the perspective of empirical analysis, this paper puts forward optimization suggestions such as establishing a dynamic early warning mechanism and improving the effect evaluation system, with the aim of providing theoretical references and practical paths for guiding the “slow employment” group to make rational plans and achieve smooth employment.
