According to Nelson
Mandela, “Education is
the most powerful
weapon that you can use
to change the world”. It is
essential to social and
human development for it
is in education that our
lives will transform.

Responsibility Theory in
correlation with his Field
Theory and the main
purpose of this research is
to identify the impact of LPI
programs, SOAECE and
CCDP in reducing illiteracy
among children as well as to
appraise if these programs
have an effect to their
recipients in becoming a
socially responsible person.
8. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
In Kurt Lewin’s
theory known as
the Field theory, it
stresses the effect
of the society to
human
development,
especially on
behavior. In
psychology, it is a
conceptual model
of human
behavior.

10. Since there is an idea of
“need and activity” and its
forces affects the latter, it
shows that human behavior,

forces from its society, will
create its values in life and
will see the ideal society,

12. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This study will be a significant endeavor in the
improvement of literacy rate as well as the values
formation of the poorest children or street-working
children in Cubao specifically in the barangay of E.
Rodriguez.
This research will also be helpful in serving as guide in
the assessment of the effects of LPI programs to help
uplift the lives of these children.
For others, the study can be a source of valuable up-to-
date information which can be very valuable for their
own similar studies on the subject matters well.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND OTHER STUDIES
In this study, Field Theory will
be used where in the social
environment is the dynamic
field which have great impact,
in an interactive way, with
human consciousness in
solving social problems.
United Nations Children's
Fund (UNICEF) saw the
importance of this theory. It
created the program Early
Child Development (ECD),
that was designed on how
different sectors can work
together. It aims to promote
child development through the
support of families and
communities.
15. In our country, the KAAKBAY
CDI, said that poverty here has
reached a point where education is
no longer a right but a privilege.
The public school system was
further found to have failed in
teaching the requisite competence
in order for the young age to
become responsible, productive,
and self-fulfilling human beings.
Linggap Pangkabataan Inc., is an
organization that had perceived
this social problem. Being funded
by UNICEF, it also created a
program based on ECD, the
Situation-oriented Approach to
Early Childhood Education
(SOAECE) and Community-based
Development Program (CCDP)
Since it is the moral obligation of
everyone to help, by giving poor
children a head start in life, LPI,
UNICEF and its partners, aim to
obtain the balance between society
and people.
16. FIELD THEORY AND THE SOCIETY
Field theory is a psychological theory which examines
patterns of interaction between the individual and the
environment. It tackles about human behavior as a
function of both the person and the environment in
which the behavior takes place, including the social
parameters.
There’s a dynamic interaction of elements in the field
and these are the organized perceptions of an individual
that are being laid upon the field/society.
17. LINGAPPANGKABATAAN
LingapPangkabataan
Incorporated, as a social
development organization, has
touched the life of more than
18,000 Filipino children including
their families. It is directly
assisting 2,500 children and
youths in Metro Manila and other
selected provinces and reaching
out to more than 3,000 children-
at-risk through their various
programs implemented by local
project partners nationwide.
Lingap aims to give needy
children in the poorest
communities a good start in life
ensuring basic education as well
as community development
program to the families of the
children.
19. In this framework, the Field
Theory of Kurt Lewin was
used to conceptualized the
impacts of the Lingap
Pangkabataan Inc. Programs
to Cubao’s poorest
community, and understand
the effect of the program in
illiteracy reduction for
better social responsibility
by the use of Social
Responsibility Theory.

21. RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS
In order for the researchers to seek for the answers to the
problems stated in this research specifically in problem
number 4 in the Statement of the Problem, the
proponents used two hypotheses, namely, the null
hypothesis H0, and the alternative hypothesis H1. That is,
H0: There is no significant relationship between the
literacy level and social responsibility level of the
learners of Lingap Pangkabataan in Barangay E.
Rodriguez Sr.
H1: There is a significant relationship between the
literacy level and social responsibility level of the
learners of Lingap Pangkabataan in Barangay E.
Rodriguez Sr.
22. VARIABLES
In his research, we denoted the LPI educational
programs as independent variables, a driving force that
reduces the illiteracy rate of the street children of Cubao.
The illiteracy rate as the dependent variable and the
effect of the said programs to the literacy and social
responsibility of the said subject of this study.
23. CHAPTER 3
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Research Design
Descriptive Statistics: The proponents used the
descriptive method in summarizing the properties and
behavior of the sample data. This method includes the
measures of central tendency (the weighted mean),
measures of variability (standard deviation), tabular
method, percentage and rank. The proponents used
questionnaires to gather data that they needed in this
research. The response of the respondents was quantified
using a scale that is introduced in the remaining section
of this chapter.
24. POPULATION AND SAMPLING
The respondents of this research are the LPI’s learners of barangay E.
Rodriguez under the programs of SOAECE and CCDP. The age bracket of
the respondents is from 5 years old and above. The population is
composed of the biggest barangay namely E. Rodriguez. The population
comprises of 118 students with 51 boys and 67 girls as of February 2013.
Table 3.1 shows the summary of the population of LPI learners in
Barangay E. Rodriguez.
25. To get the respondents for this study, the proponents selected the
50% of the population or 59 individuals that was chosen randomly
using the Quota Sampling technique. Table 3.2 shows the result of
the quota sampling method. As stated from above, the proponents
computed the 50% of the population or 59 individuals. Out of 59
samples, 26 or 44.07% are male and 33 or 55.93% are female.
26. DATA GATHERING INSTRUMENTS
This consists of the students’ assessment on how
effective is the SOAECE and CCDP programs.
The questionnaire is composed of two parts: Part 1
is about the Profile of the Respondents in terms of their
name, age bracket, gender; and their parents’ profile and
their respective educational attainment, employment
status, marital status, and the respondent’s number of
siblings., and Part 2 is the Self-assessment of Pupil
Competencies, it contains two sub-parts, the learners’
Assessment of Basic Competencies and the learners’
Assessment of Acquired Values and Social
Responsibility.
27. VALIDATION OF THE INSTRUMENT
The data gathering instrument was derived from the
unpublished field study research paper of Lingap
Pangkabataan Inc. in SOAECE last 2010. The statistical
tools used in their research paper were designed to
measure and evaluate the pupil competencies and the
pupil’s parent involvement. The proponents adopt some
of the parts of the questionnaires of LPI SOAECE
research and modify it for the purpose of data gathering.
The said instrument from SOAECE was said to be
standardized and therefore it was proven to be effective
measuring tool for assessing the students’ level of
literacy as assessed by both the respondents and their
program facilitators.
28. DATA GATHERING PROCEDURES
In gathering data, the proponents scheduled an
initial visit to Lingap Pangkabataan Inc. located in Ermin
Garcia Street, Cubao, Quezon City. Written reports and
list of current students where provided by LPI
coordinator. After the finalization, questionnaires were
given to LPI students randomly who have direct bearing
of the study. There were also home visitation in
Barangay E. Rodriguez and questionnaires were
provided to respondents who have benefited to LPI
programs.

46. RECOMMENDATIONS
The researcher recommends the continuous
implementation of Lingap Pangkabataan programs,
SOAECE and CCDP because of its effectiveness
regarding illiteracy reduction and inculcating social
responsibility among its recipients. We also
recommend that LPI should extend its programs to
other poor Metropolitan areas. In addition to these,
colleges and universities should provide NSTP
volunteers (National Service Training Program) to
assists and help LPI in attaining their objectives.
