Increasing the Mean Performance Score of Selected Tnhs Grade 7 Students in Fundamental Operations through Enhancing Readiness in Mathematics (ERM) Program

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

This research study aimed to increase the mean performance score of selected TNHS Grade 7 students in fundamental math operations through the ERM program.

METHODS

The study employed a quasi-experimental design. Pre-tests and post-tests were administered to the group of students to determine the effectiveness of the program. Respondents were chosen purposively following certain criteria. Statistical treatment such as percentage rating, mean, and t-test for dependent samples were employed for data analysis.

RESULTS

The study showed a marked increase in the mean performance score for Basic Mathematics after the implementation of the ERM program. The study further revealed that there is a significant difference before and after the implementation of ERM program. Thus, the use of the ERM program is effective in increasing the mean performance score for Basic Mathematics among Grade 7 respondents.

DISCUSSIONS

This study developed an intervention program which was effective in increasing the mean performance scores in Basic Mathematics of selected TNHS Grade 7 Students.
