Increasing the Science Performance of the Sta. Maria Elementary School Through the Implementation of the Clique-A-Tour

Abstract

The new request of the 21st century requires the populace which is numerically proficient that science is essential in present-day society as most fields of learning are reliant upon it. Moreover, the Department of Education’s advancement strategy is situated towards changing the country from one which is asset-based to one which is a progressively innovation-based institution. Innovation depends on the sciences, and the sciences are immovably founded on science concepts and skills. Science concepts and skills are imperative for further investigations in various fields which are critical to the learners and the further improvement of the nation. In perspective of the significance of science, basic education must create powerful methodologies for improving the execution of students in the subject. TThe descriptive-experimental design was used to secure the evidence to gain information and to gather data relevant to the study. Pre-test and posttest were compared to determine the difference in the Science MPS of the pupils. To find out the significant difference between the pretest and posttest were computed using the dependent t-test. The data and information gathered were systematically checked, computed, tabulated, and interpreted. Purposive sampling was used in the study in selecting the respondents composed of 19 males and six (6) females. The test revealed that the pre-test acquired a Mean of 17.21 and a Mean score of 28.86with 11.65 as a difference. Based on the result, computation the t-Value gained -12.17 and the p-value of .00001, the researchers rejected the null hypothesis which is significant at 0.05 level. The program was effective based on the result of the study. The Science skills, concept, and knowledge were developed after the five-month implementation of the Clique-A-Tour program. Moreover, I was effective in increasing the Science performance of the pupils. The study finds its value and effectiveness in delivering instruction in increasing the Science performance of Grade 4 pupils.
