AN ASSOCIATE professor of the Davao Oriental State University bagged the Best Research Paper award in the 3rd International Multidisciplinary Research Conference held recently in Iloilo City.

Dr. Saturnino Dalagan was recognized for his paper “Exploring Teachers’ Experiences with Capability Levels in Performing Each Objective of the Assessment and Reporting Domain.”

The study is perfectly aligned with this year’s theme “Decolonizing Asian Education in the Age of Inclusivity and Sustainability.”

“This accomplishment by Dr. Dalagan mirrors DOrSU’s commitment to research by supporting its faculty members in their research endeavors,” the university said.

“Furthermore, President [Roy] Ponce encourages all faculty members to participate in activities that contribute to their personal and professional growth,” it added.

Dalagan had previously achieved the same award during the 2nd IMRC in April 2023.

The 3rd IMRC was conducted in collaboration with Global Researchers, Administrators, Scholars, Professionals Inc., the International Society of Researchers, Teachers, Scholars, and the Cotabato Foundation College of Science and Technology.

It is also affiliated with Notre Dame of Midsayap College and Iloilo State University of Fisheries Science and Technology.
