Project Localized Science Intervention MaterialsAbstract
INTRODUCTION
Education Act of 1982 is an act that shall apply to all government both formal and non-formal systems in public and private schools in all levels of the entire educational system. This shall promote the right of the nation's cultural communities in the exercise of their right to develop themselves within the context of their cultures, customs, traditions, interest and belief, and recognizes education as an instrument for their maximum participation in national development as an instrument for their maximum participation in national development and in ensuring their involvement in achieving national unity. In the past three years of the national achievement test in Taykin Elementary School, science subject resulted the lowest; 77.20 for 2012-2013, 58.25 for 2013-2014 and 60.42 for 2014-2015.results were analyzed and discovered that the lowest competencies were science v. Follow -up test was given and resulted with a low mps which is 39.2. this considerations led the ci team to formulate the project LSIM -localized science intervention materials.
METHODS
In this research the survey method is used to collect and gather data about the use of Localized Science Intervention Materials. The interpretation of data was interpreted through the Descriptive method. The teacher made use of the materials found in the vicinity to check on how it would improve the performance if pupils particularly the grade five pupils. After the use of LSIM, the teacher will check its effectiveness by giving related exams or questionnaire.
RESULTS
The result of the effectiveness of the LSIM is measured after the teacher had presented the lesson. Test was given to see if there is an increase in the MPS during the evaluation. The result will further help determining more related localized materials to aid in teaching particularly in Science V. Pretest and posttest were given and then compared to check on the validity of the project.
Significantly, there was an increase in the test result proving that the used material was effective.
DISCUSSIONS
The effect of this study is to be used by the teacher to utilize more localized materials in teaching pupils. This also helped increase the MPS in Science V since the use of familiar learning materials are present. Furthermore, this made learning productively and was able to introduced pupils more about the available products in the place. Thus, this made learning more fun and interactive because the materials used were familiar to all.
