Abstract

This study aimed to record, collect, analyze, and document the oral narratives of Tagakaulo in San Pedro, Sta. Maria, Davao Occidental, and determine their educational implications. Qualitative content analysis was used in the study. Ten participants were involved in the study: nine Tagakaulo elders and one tribal literacy teacher. Thirty oral narratives were collected in the survey. Twenty-nine of them were folktales, and one was a legend. A trilingual translator guided the researcher in explaining the research questions and in translating the oral narratives from the Tagakaulo language to Cebuano. The collected narratives were analyzed by identifying the classification of oral narratives according to genre based on Eugenio. Results revealed that the oral narratives of the Tagakaulo project the culture and lifeways of an ethnic group. The values found in the narratives define their identity as a people. The oral narratives also have educational implications. These narratives can be used as teaching materials in the school and tools for learning.
