The Effectiveness of Learning Module in English 1 in Support Project of I-Likha

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

The purpose of this study is to assess whether the use of a learning module has effects on the academic performance of pupils. Part of a teacher's task is to make a teacher-made test to measure the mastery level of his/ her learners. When the teacher determined he/ she failed in his/ her index of mastery, then, a certain intervention follows. Using modules in grade one is a scaffolding to make significant progress towards students who have difficulty in the subject area. Consequently, this study investigated the use of learning modules in English 1 in support of I-Likha project of Pansin Elementary School.

METHODS

The study used a descriptive research design because of the nature of the variables that were all at hand to produce data required for quantitative and qualitative analysis and allow the simultaneous description of views, perceptions, and beliefs at any single point of time. (Digma, 2015) The researcher analyzed how effective were the module aligned in English I towards the mastery of pupils with regards to the learning competency assigned.

RESULTS

The ability of pupils tested at the beginning of the study was under the crucial level as seen on the mean of 1.67. On the other hand, learning was obviously seen on the pupil’s performance after the study due to the increased mean percentage of 2.00. This is basically because of the positive effects of the usage of the said module towards their advancement. T-test was used to know if there was a significant relationship between the pre and post-test scores of pupils and the result, therefore, conclude that we should accept the alternative hypothesis due to the attained t-value of 6.93 which was greater than the critical value of 2.31 at 0.05 level of significance.

DISCUSSIONS

The results showed that pupils can advance with the competencies aligned to their Grade Level if they were equipped with varied materials that will lead to their advancement.
