Factors that Affect Academic Performance of Grade 5Students at Caloocan North Elementary School S.Y. 2019–2020

Abstract

At present, many factors affect the academic performance of students. Poor academic performance in national examinations has been attributed to many factors that are mainly family-based, such as those who are facing economic crises in their family, which does not allow them to meet their responsibilities of ensuring a healthy and literate family. An effort needs to be made by students, teachers, school principals, and the government to realize desirable quality standards in secondary education. This research identified the community factors that affect learners’ achievement through the use of case studies. It is also suggesting that the notion of “doing something for the children.” Technology plays the role of facilitator in educating a student. Students are no longer solely dependent on teachers, parents, or other educated people to be their only source of information. Meanwhile, there are two sides to every story. This research is important to students, teachers, schools, and parents because it has considerable information and idea that can teach everyone to know what the causes of high and low performance of the pupils. This chapter presents the procedures and methods applied by the research in gathering the significant data to complete the study; these include research design, sampling techniques, an instrument used in the study, construction of the instrument, validation, administration and retrieval, and statistical treatment of the data. The results of this study showed that the respondents use games excessively. Constrictive competition can be done to practice and review numeracy skills and use meaningful, relevant incentives to encourage students’ engagement to improve their level of performance of students. The purpose of this research was to determine the factors that affect the academic performance of the students. With the help of a survey and values formation program, we can produce excellent pupils. Given that the field of academic achievement is extremely wide-range and covers a broad variety of educational outcomes, the definition of academic achievement depends on the indicators used to measure it.
