CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM
Rationale
Communication skills are vital for a student’s academic success and
future career prospects. In today’s challenging environment, students must not
only possess academic expertise, but also the requisite skills to enhance their
learning and employability prospects in the future. Communication is a dynamic
process as it involves an interaction between two or more people, sender and the
receiver. The main purpose of communication is to transmit thoughts and beliefs
to another person. The school environment takes this learning a notch higher by
teaching the student how to interact with peers and teachers alike. Confidence is
another vital aspect of good communication. A person may know the subject and
yet not communicate adequately if he lacks confidence. The major components
of communication are verbal communication or oral communication and non-
verbal communication. Oral communication is the process of expressing ideas
through the medium of speech and this plays a crucial role in the life of students
(Anton Lucanus, 2017).
The variations in the level of proficiency of communication skills can
improve academic performance in different ways. Communication in its very
basic form is the transmission of messages between two parties or more.
Communication is said to be a natural occurrence in the daily life of each
individual. As said by Adler et al. (2010), we communicate even without any

intentions since a simple blush is considered a form of non-verbal
communication. Communication skills are the ability to use language
(repressively) and express information (expressively), and these skills include lip
reading, finger spelling, sign language, and interpersonal relations. Perceived
oral communication skills are the acknowledged skills an individual is assumed to
use or possess in their day-to-day communication with other people. Perceived
communication skills is said to be part of a student’s self-esteem, whether they
are confident with themselves when it comes to interacting verbally or whether
they find themselves facing trouble communicating with one another. This self-
confidence will affect the way they communicate, and hence compromising the
effort they put in order to perform well in their studies since communication skills
are needed in classroom discussions and presentations (Malissa Maria Mahmud,
2013).
Communication skills are essential for the successful future career of a
student. Into days competitive world, communication skills in business are the
most sought after quality of an educated person. Reading, writing and listening
carefully are the three most important communication skills for students. These
skills like most of the communication skills sounds too familiar as a result of
which we take them for granted. As regards reading and writing, the only thing
that we need to tackle is to adapt with our growing age and concentration. With
these two qualities, it is possible to develop reading, oral communication skills
and writing skills. What deserves more attention is that most of the students do
not feel confident to perform dance, sing, spoken word, musical theatre, and

speech. But realizing the importance of these skills in modern day life, most good
schools have made it a regular part of their curriculum. Expressive skills are
those which are used to express our feelings, thoughts and expressions and thus
get across our point successfully to the listener. To develop expressive skills,
students need to learn is how to communicate effectively and get the full
attention of the listeners (Priya Singh, 2017).
Performance arts help naturally build mental skills, such as imagination,
observation, abstract thought and pattern recognition. The NASAA ( study of
high school students showed that those who participated in dance scored higher
on standardized tests of abstract thought than did non-dancers. This connection
makes sense; dancers need to picture how their movements look from the
outside and how they fit into a larger context. Likewise, musicians study patterns
of notes and sounds, a skill they can transfer to other learning. Thus, students
creating and appreciating art build their observational skills. Performance arts
usually involve a community, which gives students the opportunity to socialize
with others who share their passion. However, art has deeper implications for
social development, as well. According to a 1999 study conducted by the UCLA
Graduate School of Education and Information Studies, participation in art has
been linked to higher student motivation and engagement in school. Getting
ready for a performance or completing an art project helps foster responsibility,
as well. A 2002 NASAA study focusing on juvenile offenders shows that not only
does dance promote confidence, it helps develop tolerance. Creating art is

personal, and the acts involved have the ability to change children’s self-image
for the better (Nadia Archuleta, 2017).
It is evident that Performing Arts form an important part of a broad and
liberal education. They can embrace all subject disciplines as well as social
activities, and because of the confidence and communication skills that they
equip children with, children become empowered in whatever career path they
decide to follow as they become adults. The Performing Arts play a hugely
significant role in helping children to develop their creative skills. While
Performing Arts allow children to develop creative passions, they simultaneously
teach children language and communication skills, helping them to communicate
effectively with others with confidence. Performing Arts are all about self -
expression, exploring alternative options and embracing individuality. It’s not
black and white, or about right or wrong answers, and this allows children to
develop self-confidence and belief in themselves. With improved self -confidence
and self- belief, comes a natural pathway for children to go on to master many
more skills that will equip them for life. Performing Arts in schools, whether
studied and enjoyed by children as its own dedicated subject, to build on English
language and literacy lessons, or as a cross-curricular medium to support other
subjects such as history or science, allow children to experiment. Children learn
to trust others and build relationships as they learn to share their thoughts and
ideas with confidence, to listen to others and to learn about respect for one
another through positive, constructive criticism. This is why Performing Arts are
so important in developing “the whole child” and helping children to enjoy and

make the most out of school life. Used regularly as part of school life, Performing
Arts can really help to strengthen the school community. Children develop a
sense of individuality, perform well and as such are happier within themselves in
the school environment (Emma Homan, 2017).
Stage performance is a challenging art form. Whether you’re acting out a
role in a musical theatre setting, giving a speech in front of a crowd, or even
playing a solo at an open mic night, the experience can be nerve-wracking even
for seasoned performers. It can be even more anxiety-inducing if you’re a
perfectionist, as that can breed a fear of failure and from there; performance
anxiety can feel even stronger. Performance anxiety (commonly referred to as
stage fright) can devastate a performer’s career and enjoyment of their craft, but
it doesn’t have to, performance anxiety is a normal human reaction and a
completely curable condition if given the right resources, patience, and support
system. For anyone who may experience it like musicians, actors, dancers,
speakers, educators, and students. If you wish to understand and improve
anxiety issues that are holding you back from giving your best performances.
Performance anxiety (stage fright) in particular is nervousness or unease about a
specific future event in which you will be required to execute a task, such as a
song, a scene, speech, or test and usually when you’ll be in front of an audience.
Symptoms may be present during the task, for weeks or months leading up to it,
and sometimes after the event is over (Suzy S., 2015).

Theoretical Framework
The study is based on Communication Accommodation theory by Howard
Giles (2005), who gives emphasis on the adjustments of what the people does
while communicating. He developed the theory, according to him “When people
try to emphasize or minimize the social difference between the others whom they
interact with” Emphasizing that “the factors that lead to the accommodation
activity are adjustments which can be through verbal communication or through
gestures.” The theory was evolved from speech adjustment theory, which
demonstrates the value of psychological concepts to understand the dynamics of
speech. But the theory encompasses more fields such as non-verbal and
gestures. The Communication accommodation theory elaborates the human
tendency to adjust their behavior while interacting. The reason behind this their
behavior is explained as to control the social differences between the interact
ants. People accommodate their communication activities to get approval and to
set a positive image in front of interacting the environment in which they are
interacting also affects the communication behavior.

Conceptual Framework
Guided by the principles and guidelines of the Department of Education
Orders and Memorandums, “No student can be claimed to be truly educated
without basic knowledge and skills in the arts.” (DepEd Order, No. 15, s. 2016).
This serves as the legal basis of the study of the researcher.
Throughout history, the stage performances or art education has been
honored and claimed as a part of the formal basic education. (Beyond the
classroom: Performance Arts can shape life, 2016). All forms of arts offer their
unique source of mental, social which includes the enhancement of the
communication skills of an individual (Jordan, Jeremy, 2012). He added, that
Performance arts develop creativity of the imagination, develop voice projection,
unlock and encourage personal expression and lastly and more importantly, it
improve communication skills. Most of the students do not ask question because
of fear, hesitation and low confidence. Communication skills help them to listen,
understand the point of view of teachers.

Total enumeration is also used for the students-respondents.
Instrumentation and Data Collection
The researcher generated the questionnaire based on literature and
articles. On the first part, the researcher will use a five-point likert scale: Agree a
lot (5), Agree a little (4), Neither agree nor disagree (3), Disagree a little (2),
Disagree a lot (1), distributed to the following aspects: Dancing, Musical Theatre,
Speech, Singing, and Spoken word.
The researcher will askpermission prior to the administration of the final
copies of the questionnaire. A letter of request the conduct the study will be
submitted to the school principal for approval.
The gathering of data will be made through the collection and analysis of
data that provided the respondents who will accomplish the given questionnaire.
In accomplishing the questionnaire, the researcher will schedule it during the
respondents break time and it will be properly done in their respective classroom

of assignment. The researcher will distribute and retrieve the questionnaire
personally. The researcher will schedule her travel at Laoac National High
School assignments for orderly floating of questionnaires.
The retrieved questionnaire will be tallied and organized through the
Microsoft excel. The anonymity of the data will be maintained in the study . All
data will be handled with utmost confidentially.
Tools for Data Analysis
The information collected through the questionnaires will be collected,
analysed and interpreted, which will provide answers to the problems embodied
in this study.
The profile of the respondents was determined through frequency counts and
percentage wherein the following formula was used:
𝑛

CHAPTER III
PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS OF DATA AND INTERPRETATION OF
FINDINGS
This chapter presents the details of the analysis and interpretation of the
data in relation to the problems posed in this study.
Specifically it presents the four significant parts of the study through which the
data gathered had been discussed. These include the following namely 1) profile
of the grade 10 students in terms of age, sex, monthly family income, and
academic standing 2) the effects of stage performances on the communication
skills in terms of dancing, musical theatre, speech, singing, and spoken word 3)
the proposed programs/activities to be proposed to enhance the communication
skills of the respondents 4) based from the findings, what are the best identified
activities of the respondents to enhance their talents and skills in stage
performances.
PROFILE OF THE RESPONDENTS
A profile is one representation of biographical sketch and unique
qualifications. The profile of the respondents, the grade 10 students of Laoac
National High School is shown in different charts. The charts show the
differentprofile of the respondents in terms of age, sex, monthly family income,
and academic standing.

AGE
Age refers to the time an organism has lived. It can be gleaned from the
data in the graph that majority of the respondents belong to age 15 to 16 percent
of the total number of respondents. Further, the graph shows that none of them
answer the 13 to 14 years old, 38 or 95 percent belong to 15 to 16 years old, 2 or
5 percent belong to age 16 to 17 years old. This implies that the students still
have a lot of years ahead of them to improve their stage performances on the
communication skills.

classified as male or female. The graph shows that there are more females that
comprise 27 or 67.5 percent while male respondents were only 13 or 32.5
percent. This means that the male group of respondents is outnumbered by the
female group.

MONTHLY FAMILY INCOME
It is the total monthly compensation received by all family members age
15 or older living in the same household. In this study the monthly family income
of the respondents was included which is believed to be one variable to consider
in determining the level of the respondents in the stage performances. It revealed
from data in the graph that 4 or 10 percent of the respondents are receiving Php.
25,001 and below each month, 5 or 12.5 percent are receiving Php. 20, 001 –
25,000, 5 or 12.5 percent are receiving 15,001 – 20,000, 10 or 25 percent are
