Lang-ay, P.L.D. | Sannadan, J.G.M.
The implementation of Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education addresses numerous educational issues in the Philippines and Cambodia by recognizing a child's mother tongue, culture, and context as the foundation of learning. The study used literature juxtaposition and qualitative meta-analysis to conduct a rigorous secondary qualitative analysis of primary qualitative findings. This is to provide a more comprehensive description of the implementation of MTB-MLE in both countries and its perceived effects on the indigenous communities. The study determined that most mother tongue-based education in both countries occur in the non-formal sector, particularly at the preschool or adult literacy classes. Most programs are run by non-government actors, such as local and international NGOs and other civil society actors. It further concludes that this learning initiative helped the marginalized minorities by supporting the utilization of their mother tongue and helping them make sense of the words and the world they are in. This learning initiative would encourage students to achieve more and would allow them to relate their everyday reality to reality nationally, internationally, and globally.
