Mathematics Performance of Intermediate Learners through Project Ways
Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 21, Issue 7
Abstract
Intermediate learners are struggling to understand and analyze the material in their classes. There was a significant decline of 2.25% in learners' GWA (Grade Weighted Average) after the implementation of modular remote learning, indicating a notable decline in their academic performance. In order to address the existing disparities, it is suggested that the materials be streamlined and supplemented by video lectures and audio recordings, online discussions, local training sessions, and home visits. With that, this study was crafted to enhance the mathematics performance of intermediate learners in San Miguel Dao I Elementary School through Worksheets, Audio and Video Conferencing, YouTube links, and Self-Assessment (Project WAYS). A quantitative research design was used in this study which used quasi-experimental research design. The research took place at San Miguel Dao I Elementary School. The study's participants were intermediate learners (Grades 4, 5, and 6) for the school year 2022-2023. A pretest and posttest were used to collect data. After establishing research communication with respective DepEd officials, the researcher personally facilitated the examination. This covered the third quarter of school year 2022-2023. The data was analyzed using a paired t-test in Microsoft Excel Data Analysis Tool Pack. Before the implementation of Project WAYS, intermediate learners performed poorly in mathematics which shows that learners did not meet the expectations. Meanwhile after the implementation of Project WAYS, intermediate learners still performed poorly in mathematics which shows that learners still did not meet the expectations. However, if these results will be compared to the pretest before the implementation of Project WAYS, a better performance of intermediate learners can be traced. Additionally, the study has identified a significant difference between the pretest and posttest results paving the way to reject the null hypothesis and showing proof that Project WAYS is effective in enhancing the mathematical academic performance of intermediate learners in San Miguel Dao I Elementary School. The findings paved the way to provide more support mechanisms for the enhancement of academic performance of learners for it was backed-up with the results that learning accompanied with suitable support mechanisms would ensure wholesome accomplishments in the part of the learners.
