Abstract

This research was made possible to measure the effectiveness and the Mastery level of the learners in the utilization of Activity Based via Multimedia Learning Approach through Interactive Strategic Instructional Material to improve the Academic performance of students in Science 7-Integrity specifically about Heat Transfer (Conduction, Convection and Radiation), which is one of the least mastered skills in physics. At first the ISIMwas validated by the 3 judges, which composed of the Department heads and Master Teachers of Grade 7 level held at Jose Abad Santos High School, a Division Level Competition, followed by the validation of Pre-test and Post-test and other instruments. Right after that, the researcher identified the respondents by using the fishbowl technique, a random type of sampling. Then, a pre-test was given to diagnose the knowledge of the respondents on the given topic in Physics, since it is considered as one of the least mastered skills in the field of Science. A discussion was executed to the chosen respondents and grouped them into two known as the ABML (Activity Based Multimedia Learning group or ISIM (Interactive Strategic Instructional Material) group and NABML (Non-Activity Based Multimedia Learning or NISIM (Non-Interactive Strategic Instructional Material) group, where the ABML or ISIM is the treated one with use of Computer Simulated Materials, while the other is the NABML or NISIM which is simply an (ABL) Activity Based Learning, where students perform based on what is in the module. After that, the Mastery level of each (ABML) wascomputed such as (Activity Card, Enrichment Card and Assessment Card). Afterwards, a post-test was administered to see if there is a significant difference between the 2 groups and between the pre-test and post-test of both groups. The two-tailed and a correlated t-test were used to be able to know its effectiveness. As a result, the researcher found out that using the ABML approach through ISIM has an enormous impact in engaging the students to manipulate the Computer Simulated Materials; it helpedthem to become active, alert, make it easier to gain knowledge and make their performance improve, better than the NABML or NISIM group.
