Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 19, Issue 3
Abstract
This quantitative study identified the difference between the performance of ten (10) pupils of Bintuan Elementary School. Purposive sampling was employed to identify learners with reading difficulty in this study. The data gathered in this study were subjected to statistical analysis with the aid of Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) software. Weighted mean was used to identify the mean performance of the respondents during the pre-test and post-test; the Wilcoxon Ranked Sign Test to find out the difference between the performance of the respondents before and after the implementation of Project YAKAPPP and to test the null hypothesis at 0.05 level. As revealed in the study, there is a significant difference between the performance of the Grade 4 pupils before and after the implementation of Project YAKAPPP. Using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test, z ( -2.214) is higher than the critical region, 0.27. Therefore, the H0 is rejected, and the Ha is accepted. Project YAKAPPP significantly impacts the performance of the Grade 4 pupils in Bintuan Elementary School. The researcher found out the reasons for their reading difficulties and the following are the suggestions and recommendations: teachers should provide reading materials that are interesting and suited to their abilities and interests; the school should have a teacher who is trained in special education; parents should be supportive when it comes to the education of their children; School-based feeding program should also be continued; and the internet connection should also be improved.
