G.C.A.S.H. in Mathematics for Struggling Eighth Graders

Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2022, Vol 5, Issue 7

Abstract

This study aimed to improve the learning outcomes among Grade 8 students of Dilangalen National High School for the school year 2021-2022. The intervention of this study was the G.C.A.S.H. which means Guided and Contextualized Activity Sheets for Homework. This intervention includes students who have the difficulty in passing Mathematics 8. The results implied that there is a significant increase in the performance of the students after the implementation of the intervention. The level of significant difference on the pre-test and post-test results is indicative of a very highly significant difference in the learning outcomes of Grade 8 students before and after the G.C.A.S.H. (Guided and Contextualized Activity Sheets for Homework) intervention. The results can be inferred that the intervention is very effective in improving the grades of the learners in Mathematics 8. The Eta2 value for the learning outcome of the G.C.A.S.H. (Guided and Contextualized Activity Sheets for Homework) intervention of the Grade 8 students is 0.510 which signifies Small Effect. This means that the G.C.A.S.H. (Guided and Contextualized Activity Sheets for Homework) intervention contributed a small effect on the learning outcome of the Grade 8 students. Thus, the intervention should be improved. Furthermore, it can be inferred that face-to-face classes are more effective than the modular learning modality, particularly in Mathematics 8. The researchers recommend that the intervention shall be employed in the different grade levels and different sections of Dilangalen National High School as a form of remedial and reinforcement activities. The GCASH as an intervention can also be utilized by the ALS learners of SHS as an intervention for those students who failed and who did not meet the mastery level of the subject. Lastly, the researchers recommend to other researchers that this study be enhanced by proposing other options aside from the use of GCASH as an aid in improving the learning outcomes in Mathematics at Grade 8 level. This will surely help the eighth graders to have the full potential for learning especially in this time of the pandemic.
