Effectiveness of Project: Sikap Science Ignited Knowledge for Active Participation of Grade 10 Learners in Pililla National High School

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

The primary goal of teaching is to provide appropriate and effective instruction to learners. Teachers play a crucial role in learner's education process. Science has an enormous part in the development of the learner. Some learners are not aware that Science is always an integration of all the things they do from the moment they wake up and sleep at night. This research focus on learning approach to investigate the EFFECTIVENESS OF SCIENCE IGNITED KNOWLEDGE FOR ACTIVE PARTICIPATION (SIKAP) of Grade 10 Learners inPililla National High School

METHODS

The study employed experimental method and used Grade 10 Learners as participants. The topics covered least mastered skills in Grade 10 Biological Science. They were classified according to their learning approaches based on their learning competencies. The level of performance used pre and post-test in topics 1, 2 and 3, mean and standard deviation.

RESULTS

Mean obtained in topic 1 is 13.20, topic 2 is 11.17 and topic 3 is 13.79. Based from the findings, results showed that there is a significant improvement in the performance of Grade 10 students after the implementation of Project SIKAP, an improvement in the mean percentage score was reflected in the pre and post-test results.

DISCUSSIONS

Students’ performance in the subject improved after using Project SIKAP. This project may use to supplement and enhance science teaching in accelerating towards educational development through innovative practices of instructional material development. Creativity and innovation is essential to the present needs of the learners especially the 21st century learners who need to be holistically and skillfully developed.
