Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2025, Vol 36, Issue 4
Abstract
The rapid advancement of digital technology has transformed education, with YouTube emerging as a powerful learning tool. Recognizing its potential, this study explores how YouTube videos enhance the basic science process skills of Science, Technology, and Engineering (STE) students. It specifically evaluates the effectiveness of the IVY strategy in improving Grade 8 students' science skills at Isulan National High School, Sultan Kudarat. Using a descriptive-evaluative research design, the study focused on six key skills: observation, communication, classification, measuring, inferring, and predicting. Data collection involved validated survey questionnaires and activity sheets, analyzed through descriptive statistics, ANOVA, and Pearson Product Moment Correlation. Thirty-four students participated, identifying difficulties in applying basic science process skills. Findings showed significant improvements in all measured skills, with notable advancements in prediction and inference, emphasizing the intervention’s role in fostering higher-order thinking. The reduction in score variability indicated more balanced learning outcomes, highlighting the inclusivity of the applied teaching methods. This progress supports the integration of the IVY strategy in science education as a promising approach to skill development. The study concludes that inquiry-based strategies like IVY strategy effectively bridge skill gaps and enhance critical thinking, aligning with the Philippine Basic Education Curriculum's 21st-century learning goals. It recommends adopting inquiry-based learning, organizing teacher training programs, implementing enrichment activities, and utilizing diagnostic assessments to sustain skill development. Initiatives like Science Fairs and STEM Days are also encouraged to inspire interest in science and prepare students for STEM careers, contributing to socio-economic progress.
