Level of MAPEH Instruction at Batangas National High School

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

MAPEH instruction is a crucial component of a learner's development. Cognizant to this, teachers are also capable of identifying the different methods and strategies that must be used to elicit the maximum learning capabilities of learners under their care. It is the inherent task of the teacher to delve into the knowledge base of pupils and enhance the latent knowledge that they have with certain infusions from their own knowledge base thereby creating a new, more personalized version that the learner would have to work with. Such individualization is also one of the features of the K-12 curriculum. With these things in mind, the researcher decided to embark on this action research with the hopes of determining the level of MAPEH instruction at her present station.

METHODS

The researcher used the descriptive method of research since it involved the collection of data to form the backbone of the study in order to address the questions set by the researcher from the beginning.

RESULTS

Respondents favorably assess the current status of MAPEH instruction that they are currently implementing under the K to 12 curriculum. With their personal endeavors, it is possible that they are augmenting the curriculum with various efforts to supplement what is stated in the curriculum and learning guides. They can provide exceptional efforts to cover instructional materials, assessment and other important aspects. Students participate in an acceptable degree with regard to MAPEH. Learning concepts and skills are accepted by such learners who undergo various strategies and methods during the school year. The problems encountered by teachers in teaching MAPEH include the ready availability of instruments and other indigenous materials that they can use to expound on the concepts being presented in class. While this is augmented and supplemented by improvised materials, nothing really beats the real thing. Efforts must be made to ensure that schools get to procure and acquire such materials.

DISCUSSIONS

The main purpose of the study is to determine how the respondents assess the MAPEH instruction under the K to 12 curriculum. It also sought to determine the assessment of the respondents for instructional materials, teaching methods and strategies as well as evaluation used. Furthermore, the researcher believes that such an assessment would provide an idea of how to improve the process of teaching MAPEH for learners in the field.
