Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 27, Issue 4
Abstract
The study focused mainly with the development of Android-based Learning Materials in Genetics based from the Curriculum Guide of Senior High School given by the Department of Education conducted at Morong National High School – Senior High School School Year 2021-2022. The topics are included in the Curriculum Guide of General Biology 2 based on the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum for Senior High School – Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Track. The study included the evaluation of the developed Android-Based Learning Materials in Genetics through a modified evaluation tool for quantitative analysis of data. The study employed the Developmental and Descriptive methods of Research specifically, in describing the development of the mobile application and assessing the quality of the developed learning material through the utilization of a Questionnaire-Checklists for the two groups of respondents which are the twenty (20) Teachers of Science and twenty (20) Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Experts as they were capable to objectively evaluate the developed learning material in terms of instructional content, alignment to the curriculum, depth of knowledge, learner engagement interactivity, graphics and multimedia, lay-outs, operation, and performance. Based on the intensified treatment of the data gathered, the Android-Based Learning Materials in Genetics was designed and constructed aligned to the learning competencies of the current curriculum. The evaluation of the developed mobile application in terms of instructional content, alignment to the curriculum, depth of knowledge, learner engagement interactivity, graphics and multimedia, lay-outs, operation, and performance had a 100% Highly Agree as interpretation on the developed material. In the light of the summary of the findings, it is concluded that the developed Android-Based Learning Materials in Genetics was generally efficient, simple to learn, easy to navigate, appealing and engaging. It was also pedagogically constructive as the content and the tools used in the application were useful from the perspective of both the content experts and the ICT experts. Thus, accomplishing the primary goal of this research study by providing effective instruction through mobile learning. Based from the results of evaluation and conclusion on the developed Android-Based Learning Materials in Genetics, the following are hereby recommended: the developed Android-Based Learning Materials in Genetics can be used to facilitate teaching-learning process. The developed Android-Based Learning Materials in Genetics maybe subjected to revision and modifications in the future depending on the needed competency for a particular topic and the needs and abilities and sustainability of learning styles of the future learners. It may be subjected for improvement to be utilized in iOS or apple devices. The developed Android-Based Learning Materials in Genetics may be modified for an automatic update of the content. Encourage other teachers in science specifically Biology teachers to use the developed Android-Based Learning Materials in Genetics. Additional studies maybe conducted with regards to more content-based courses to be placed in other areas that could supplement the findings of this study.
