INTRODUCTION
Background of the Study
We all know that instructions was defined previously as "the purposeful
direction of the learning process" and is one of the major teacher class activities.
Professional educators have developed a variety of models of instruction, each
designed to produce classroom instructions. Joyce, Weil, and Calhoun (2003)
describe four categories of models of classroom instructions: behavioral systems,
information processing, personal development, and social interaction, that
summarize the vast majority of instructional methods. Each model differs in the
specific type or measure of learning that is targeted. Another important point is
that the different models and methods of instruction have been developed based
on specific interpretations of concepts and principles of teaching and learning.
(Bloom, 1976) While it is important to learn and practice the approaches
developed by others, it is even more important to understand the concepts and
principles upon which they are based In summary, instruction is complex and can
take many forms. It is a vitally important classroom activity, but must be
considered in the context of such factors as measures of desired student learning,
controlling student behaviour, individual differences among students, and school
processes and characteristics. Under the best conditions it takes many years of
experience for most teachers to meet the ideals of instructional practice that they
set for themselves.
School of Saint Anthony
Significance of the Study
This study will be conducted to know the effectiveness of the classroom
instructions of the teachers by getting the results of the quizzes in selected Grade
7 sections. The ones who will benefit from this research are:
Teachers: The teachers would know the strengths or weaknesses of their
students. This research would help them understand the students much better.
Students: These students would know the different effects of a particular
classroom instruction to each one of them. This study would help them know what
kind of classroom instruction will work better for them.
Parents: The said research would be helpful for the parents to know the
perspective of their own child. This study would help them to help their child
accept their weaknesses and turn it into strengths.
Administrators: This medium would make them aware and team up with
the teachers and formulate new classroom instructions that will improve not just
the academic performance of the students, but also the teaching skills of the
teachers.
Future Researchers: This study would help the future researchers to
gather information for them to arrive with a better conclusion based on the
premises given.
School of Saint Anthony
Statement of the Problem
The researcher aims to know the effectiveness of classroom instruction in
selected grade 7 sections.
Specifically, the researchers seek to answer the following questions:
[Link] can the teaching skills of the teachers affect the academic
performances of the Grade 7 students?
[Link] teaching strategies would work to help the grade 7 students attain
higher quiz scores?
[Link] are the coping mechanisms of the grade 7 students in order to
perform greatly in school?
[Link] faculty development teaching methods or approaches could be
developed base on the results of the study?
Scope and Delimitation
This study is focused on the effectiveness of the administered quiz in the
selected grade 7 sections in School of Saint Anthony for the school year 2018-
2019.
Quizzes in the English subject area was chosen because it is recognizable
that this type of assessment can determine if the classroom instruction of the
School of Saint Anthony
teacher is highly effective, however it may also depend on the students if they are
proactive in acquiring knowledge while the teacher is discussing the lesson.
In this study it will not focus on, but may touch certain information about
the construction of the quiz itself, the type of quiz that the students are taking
whether if it is formative assessment or a summative one and the perception of the
students in the grades that they reaped from the said assessment.
Furthermore, in this study, the score of the students’ quizzes in the English
subject area in the second grading period were gathered and tabulated to
measure its efficiency.
The study involved the following sections in the grade 7 level held by the
two different English teachers: Rizal, Jaena, Mabini and Pinpin respectively.

REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE AND CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
Related Literature
Formative assessment
As presented by the Poorvu Center for Teacher and Learning (n.d) is is
defined as a tool that identify misconceptions, struggles, and learning gaps along
the way and assess how to close those gaps. It includes effective tools for helping
to shape learning, and can even bolster students’ abilities to take ownership of
their learning when they understand that the goal is to improve learning, not apply
final marks (Trumbull and Lash, 2013). It can include students assessing
themselves, peers, or even the instructor, through writing, quizzes, conversation,
and more. In short, formative assessment occurs throughout a class or course,
and seeks to improve student achievement of learning objectives through
approaches that can support specific student needs (Theal and Franklin, 2010).
Formative assessment strategies improve teaching and learning
simultaneously. Instructors can help students grow as learners by actively
encouraging them to self-assess their own skills and knowledge retention, and by
giving clear instructions and feedback.
Seven principles (adapted from Nicol and Macfarlane-Dick, 2007 with
additions) can guide educators’ strategies, namely: keeping clear idea to define
good performance, encourage learner’s self-realization, giving of detailed and
additional feedback, encouraging teacher to peer dialogue in learning, promoting
School of Saint Anthony
motivational beliefs and self-esteem, providing opportunities to close gap between
current performance and collecting information that can shape teaching
respectively. This implies that assessment under this type is much more easier
and does not require thorough application of the subject matter.
Summative Assessment
Summative assessment weighs heavier than the formative assessment
itself. Because mainly, when this word is encountered, hardcore type of
examinations is the first thing that students think. Moreover, it aims to tap the
critical thinking skills of the students and to apply the goals and objectives
stipulated in the Enhanced Basic Education Curriculum (K-12) of the Department
of Education.
The goal of administering summative assessment is to measure the
student’s learning capabilities at the end of an instructional unit by comparing it at
some stand mark or benchmark. (Carnegie Mellon University, 2016) Hence, the
summative assessment usually offered at high stakes because they bear high
point value/s.
In addition, it is aimed at assessing the extent to which the most important
outcomes at the end of the instruction have been reached.
But it measures more: the effectiveness of learning, reactions on the
instruction and the benefits on a long-term base. The long-term benefits can be
determined by following students who attend your course, or test. You are able to
see whether and how they use the learned knowledge, skills and attitudes.
School of Saint Anthony
Depending on the time frame, this process can also be called confirmatory
evaluation. ([Link], 2012)
Types of Instructions
Institutions of higher learning across the nation are responding to political,
economic, social and technological pressures to be more responsive to students'
needs and more concerned about how well students are prepared to assume
future societal roles. Faculty are already feeling the pressure to lecture less, to
make learning environments more interactive, to integrate technology into the
learning experience, and to use collaborative learning strategies when
appropriate. Hence, this is the list of the different types of instructions in the
academe.
Lecture. For many years, the lecture method was the most widely used
instructional strategy in college classrooms. Nearly 80% of all U.S. college
classrooms in the late 1970s reported using some form of the lecture method to
teach students (Cashin, 1990). Although the usefulness of other teaching
strategies is being widely examined today, the lecture still remains an important
way to communicate information.
Used in conjunction with active learning teaching strategies, the traditional
lecture can be an effective way to achieve instructional goals.
The advantages of the lecture approach are that it provides a way to
communicate a large amount of information to many listeners, maximizes
School of Saint Anthony
instructor control and is non-threatening to students. The disadvantages are that
lecturing minimizes feedback from students, assumes an unrealistic level of
student understanding and comprehension, and often disengages students from
the learning process causing information to be quickly forgotten.
Case Method. Providing an opportunity for students to apply what they
learn in the classroom to real-life experiences has proven to be an effective way of
both disseminating and integrating knowledge. The case method is an
instructional strategy that engages students in active discussion about issues and
problems inherent in practical application. It can highlight fundamental dilemmas
or critical issues and provide a format for role playing ambiguous or controversial
scenarios.
Course content cases can come from a variety of sources. Many faculty
have transformed current events or problems reported through print or broadcast
media into critical learning experiences that illuminate the complexity of finding
solutions to critical social problems. The case study approach works well in
cooperative learning or role playing environments to stimulate critical thinking and
awareness of multiple perspectives.
Discussion. There are a variety of ways to stimulate discussion. For
example, some faculty begin a lesson with a whole group discussion to refresh
students memories about the assigned reading(s). Other faculty find it helpful to
have students list critical points or emerging issues, or generate a set of questions
School of Saint Anthony
stemming from the assigned reading(s). These strategies can also be used to help
focus large and small group discussions.
Obviously, a successful class discussion involves planning on the part of
the instructor and preparation on the part of the students. Instructors should
communicate this commitment to the students on the first day of class by clearly
articulating course expectations. Just as the instructor carefully plans the learning
experience, the students must comprehend the assigned reading and show up for
class on time, ready to learn.
Active Learning. Meyers and Jones (1993) define active learning as
learning environments that allow students to talk and listen, read, write, and reflect
as they approach course content through problem-solving exercises, informal
small groups, simulations, case studies, role playing, and other activities -- all of
which require students to apply what they are learning (p. xi).
Many studies show that learning is enhanced when students become
actively involved in the learning process. Instructional strategies that engage
students in the learning process stimulate critical thinking and a greater
awareness of other perspectives.
Although there are times when lecturing is the most appropriate method
for disseminating information, current thinking in college teaching and learning
suggests that the use of a variety of instructional strategies can positively enhance
student learning. Obviously, teaching strategies should be carefully matched to the
School of Saint Anthony
teaching objectives of a particular lesson.
Assessing or grading students' contributions in active learning
environments is somewhat problematic. It is extremely important that the course
syllabus explicitly outlines the evaluation criteria for each assignment whether
individual or group. Students need and want to know what is expected of them.
For more information about grading, see the Evaluating Student Work section
contained in this Guide.
Cooperative Learning. Cooperative Learning is a systematic pedagogical
strategy that encourages small groups of students to work together for
theachievement of a common goal. The term 'Collaborative Learning' is often used
as a synonym for cooperative learning when, in fact, it is a separate strategy that
encompasses a broader range of group interactions such as developing learning
communities, stimulating student/faculty discussions, and encouraging electronic
exchanges (Bruffee, 1993). Both approaches stress the importance of faculty and
student involvement in the learning process.
When integrating cooperative or collaborative learning strategies into a
course, careful planning and preparation are essential. Understanding how to form
groups, ensure positive interdependence, maintain individual accountability,
resolve group conflict, develop appropriate assignments and grading criteria, and
manage active learning environments are critical to the achievement of a
successful cooperative learning experience. Before you begin, you may want to
School of Saint Anthony
consult several helpful resources which are contained in Appendix N. In addition,
the Program in Support of Teaching and Learning can provide faculty with
supplementary information and helpful techniques for using cooperative learning
or collaborative learning in college classrooms.
Integrating Technology. Today, educators realize that computer literacy is
an important part of a student's education. Integrating technology into a course
curriculum when appropriate is proving to be valuable for enhancing and
extending the learning experience for faculty and students. Many faculty have
found electronic mail to be a useful way to promote student/student or
faculty/student communication between class meetings. Others use listserves or
on-line notes to extend topic discussions and explore critical issues with students
and colleagues, or discipline- specific software to increase student understanding
of difficult concepts.
Distance Learning. Distance learning is not a new concept. We have all
experienced learning outside of a structured classroom setting through television,
correspondence courses, etc. Distance learning or distance education as a
teaching pedagogy, however, is an important topic of discussion on college
campuses today. Distance learning is defined as 'any form of teaching and
learning in which the teacher and learner are not in the same place at the same
time' (Gilbert, 1995).
School of Saint Anthony
Obviously, information technology has broadened our concept of the
learning environment. It has made it possible for learning experiences to be
extended beyond the confines of the traditional classroom. Distance learning
technologies take many forms such as computer simulations, interactive
collaboration/discussion, and the creation of virtual learning environments
connecting regions or nations. Components of distance learning such as email,
listserves, and interactive software have also been useful additions to the
educational setting.
Teachers, instructors, and professors are required to fulfill many roles and
perform many duties that may be considered ancillary.
At the core of the roles and duties is the actual practice of teaching. The
primary purpose of this teaching practice is to facilitate student learning. Learning
may be defined as a change in behaviors, attitudes, or capabilities. Effective
teachers promote student learning, and related instructional methods have been
extensively documented in the educational research literature.
Educational effectiveness research (EER) addresses the question of what
works in education and why. Since the 1980s, EER has enjoyed rapid expansion
in many countries. Methodological and technological advances have improved the
power of estimation of teacher and school differences in student achievement
(Goldstein 2003). However, EER lacks cross-cultural perspectives and has been
criticized for showing strong ethnocentric tendencies (Reynolds 2000). Although
School of Saint Anthony
EER publications have acknowledged seminal studies by Coleman et al. (1966),
Edmonds (1979), Brookover et al (1979), Rutter et al. (1979), and Mortimore et al.
(1988), a science of EER has not been developed. The absence of cross-national
perspectives and intercultural relationships between educational effectiveness
researchers is seen as intellectually damaging. Specifically, over the last two
decades, a trend has begun to emerge whereby education policy makers have
attempted to apply simplistic suggestions for raising standards based on the
notion of “transplanting” knowledge and ideas from one country, or one culture, to
another.
Examples of this practice include the proposed lengthening of the school
day and shortening of school holidays discussed in some American states,
following the popularity of the “time to learn” approach in Japan and the trend in
British primary schools toward whole-class direct instruction, which is clearly
based on the enthusiasm for this approach in the Pacific Rim countries (Reynolds
2000). Many EER researchers are voicing concern about the potential hazards of
this practice of transplanting educational policies from one country or culture to
another (e.g., Reynolds 2006; Scheerens 2013). The concerns are largely based
on effectiveness studies that have shown how factors that seem successful in
some countries may not be appropriate elsewhere. For example, some US studies
have found positive association between “assertive principal instructional
leadership” and student achievement gains (e.g., Hallinger and Heck 2011; Louis
et al. 2010), but within-country research in Europe (e.g., The Netherlands, Cyprus)
School of Saint Anthony
has not found the same level of support for this factor (e.g., Kyriakides
2008; Scheerens and Bosker 1997). However, in an era when educational policy
appears to be following the international route, it is unfortunate that EER appears
to be lingering in a uni-culture research dimension, pursuing within-country studies
rather than cross-national research. Yet, arguably, cross-national and multicultural
studies on educational effectiveness are required in order to develop
understanding about the complex structures of education policy across different
countries and cultures and to explain how policies affect student outcomes in
different settings.
The cross-national European study of educational effectiveness described
in this paper aims to contribute to the development of the international dimension
of EER and to provide a response to the knowledge and theoretical gaps in the
field. More specifically, it investigates the extent to which the dynamic model of
educational effectiveness (Creemers and Kyriakides 2008) can be used as a
starting point for establishing a framework to identify the factors that work in
different educational settings and help understand the reasons why. The dynamic
model is multilevel in nature and refers to factors operating at four levels: student,
teacher, school, and system. This paper is concerned with the generic nature of
teacher factors and the implications for student achievement in mathematics and
science in elementary education.

The paradigm draws the concept of the study and the application of the
aforementioned procedures. It implies an overview on how the researchers would
fulfill the ideas and principles that derived from the gathered related literature and
other references and how these resources should be utilized judiciously.
Moreover, aside from gathering the raw scores of the students in the one of their
quizzes, the researchers would also conduct a survey which the questions are
standardized in order to arrive at good conclusion.
The collected data would be analyzed through the use of appropriate
statistical treatment that will determine if the administered quizzes is highly
effective as a form of classroom instruction.
School of Saint Anthony
DEFINITION OF TERMS
English subject = English is, almost certainly, the most important subject
that a child can learn in school. Without knowing proper English, a child will not be
able to communicate effectively with the English speaking nation. They would be
shut off from education and other people in this country. A person who does not
poses proper English limits his or her ability to achieve their highest potential.
Knowledge of the English language is important to learn to be able to
communicate with others, in the teaching of immigrant students, and in finding and
maintaining a job. By assuming that students will learn proper communication
skills without guidance is a big mistake
Classroom Instruction = Instruction was defined previously as "the
purposeful direction of the learning process" and is one of the major teacher class
activities (along with planning and management).
Professional educators have developed a variety of models of instruction, each
designed to produce classroom learning.
Quizzes = is a form of student assessment that measures knowledge, skills,
and abilities. Generally a frequent and short assessment that can gauge a
student’s retention and comprehension of a small amount of information. A quiz
can function throughout a course as an informative feedback device allowing both
the instructor and the students to see where they are excelling or need more
focus.

METHODOLOGY
Research Design
The study manifests the non-experimental design under a comparative
study. The approach of the research is through a survey form in which the
researchers will conduct a survey on the efficacy of quizzes as an effective
assessment tool and also by gathering the scores of the students that makes the
study a quantitative in nature since the numerical data and the raw data from the
survey will be treated using appropriate statistical formula. Hence, the researchers
aim to know the effectiveness of administering quizzes as an effective assessment
tools in every grade 7 sections of the School of Saint Anthony.
Furthermore, Cristobal (2017) defined comparative research as a tool to
compare and contrast representative samples from two or more groups of subjects
in relation to certain designated variables that occurs in normal conditions. And the
results from these analyses are frequently not generalized in a population.
The Sample
The participants of the study are the four Grade 7 sections held by Ms.
Pinca of the School of Saint Anthony. There are 118 student in total; Rizal has 29
students, Jaena has 30 students, Mabini has 30 students and Pinpin has 29
students. Out of the total number, 20 were chosen as the sample of the study.
The students were selected through cluster sampling.
School of Saint Anthony
After collecting the populations for each section, the researchers chose five
(5) samples per sections through systematic sampling in order to have a total
number of 20.
The Instrument
The researchers will seek out the data that should be collected to the
English teacher of the Grade 7 level by asking them personally to collect the raw
data, which is the scores of the students in the four (4) sections in the quizzes of
the said level respectively.
Statistical Treatment
In this study, the researchers planned very well the appropriate statistical
treatment was used to arrive at a good conclusion and to fulfill the objectives
stated on the specific problems in the Chapter I. Therefore, this part of the chapter
marks the culmination of long process of formulating the research hypothesis,
construction of instrument and data collection. Cristobal (2017)
T-test was used to compare two means. The effectiveness of quizzes as an
assessment tool in the grade 7 level with two (2) different teachers for the English
subject respectively. It aims to compare the means of two independent samples.
School of Saint Anthony
Furthermore, Gosset (1908) developed and derived the formula of the t-test
according to the following variables.
M x −M y
t=

Where: Mx = The mean of the students handled by the first English
teacher.
My = The mean of the students handled by the second
English teacher.
Sx = Standard Deviation of the students handled by the first
English teacher
Sy = Standard Deviation of students handled by the second
English teacher
N = The total of sample, in which the total population of the
whole grade 7 sections comprising of 6 sections.
School of Saint Anthony
Data Collection Procedure
The permission of the data collection will be sought from the selected grade
7 level: Rizal, Jaena, Mabini and Pinpin which are handled by Ms. Pinca. They will
serve as the respondents of our said study.
The questionnaires were personally distributed to the respondents that
corresponds to the research after the approval of the level leader of the Grade 7,
research coordinator, and the Senior High School Principal. Members of the
research group were divided evenly on the distribution and collection of the
questionnaires to each respondent.

PRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS OF DATA
In reporting the results, the researcher stays close to the statistical findings
without drawing broader implications or meaning from them. Further, this section
includes summaries of the data rather than the raw data (e.g., the actual scores
for individuals). A results section include tables, figures, and detailed explanations
about the statistical results
The Normal Distribution of the T-test
To further analyze the result of statistical treatment that was being used in
this study and to have efficient presentation of data, the normal curve or also
called as normal distribution was used with respect to the statistical treatment that
was used in this study, which is the t-test.
The data gathered by the researchers was sufficient because it reached the
minimum size of sample ideal for the t-test which is 30. However, the sample
reached at exactly 118 and using the formula for the t-test, it was very crucial to
tabulate the data manually. Because one mistake from the data that has been
input can affect the consistency and the reliability of the results, making it
compromised and not accurate. That is why the researchers decided group the
four sections into two groups. Group 1 and group 2 consists of 59 sample per
group And in order to acquire accurate data, the researchers used a reliable t-test
calculator ([Link]/quickcalc/ttest2) to further manage the collected
raw data and to yield accurate results.

As presented above, the result that the statistical treatment yields that there
is a positive significant difference on the effectiveness of the classroom
instructions used in the selected grade 7 sections of School of Saint Anthony.
Thus, the result given by the study implies that the classroom instructions used by
one of the English 7 teacher is highly effective for the better learning of the
students.
Chapter 5
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This chapter presents the findings, conclusions, and recommendations of
the study.
Findings
These are the following findings that the researchers have gathered from
the questionnaires:
1. Majority of the students says that their teacher in the English 7 had full
authority on the subject matter that she taught to her students.
2. A lot of students claimed that their teacher is firm in its words, especially
when the time for checking the homework/ notebooks came.
School of Saint Anthony
3. Majority of the learners stated that their teacher is patiently listens to their
questions, especially on the lessons that were discussed. Their teacher ensures
that maximum learning experience occurs inside and outside of the classroom.
4. All of the students stated that their teacher is always alert and ready for
lesson by using visual aids that can utilize and maximize their learning experience.
5. Some of the students stated that they are given time to review after the
lesson/ subject matter was discussed.
6. The learners indicated that their teacher strengthens their desire to learn by
introducing them to highly interactive/ activity-based motivation before starting the
lesson proper.
7. Majority of the students said that the teacher sticks very well to the time
frame of the lesson with respect to the given time allotted for them.
8. Majority students said that their teacher is giving activities relevant to the
subject matter that should be discussed.
9. Many of the learners said that their acquired learnings helped them a lot in
accomplishing assessment that their teacher administers to them.
10. All of the students stated that the classroom instruction/s used by their
teacher is highly effective and it conveys them to highly pay their attention to the
subject matter very well.
CONCLUSIONS
School of Saint Anthony
Previous research had led the researchers to a positive comparison
between the classroom instructions and the quizzes results of the students. This
was proved true in research with a positive comparison of P value is equal to
0.0171 computed from the t-test, thus this study will reject the null hypothesis and
accept the alternative hypothesis (The classroom instructions used by the teacher
is effective for the better learning of the students in selected Grade 7 sections). A
95% of confidence level was achieved with a mean of 3.17 from the difference
from 0.58 to 5.76.
This research proved that the capacity to teach all students depends on
teachers’ respect for and understanding of the range of experiences and
knowledge that students from diverse backgrounds bring to school, and how to
capitalize on those experiences in crafting rigorous instruction. This research was
a stepping stone in order to attain the effectiveness of the classroom
instructions. first teacher of English 7. With the survey had done and finally
conducted the results were good. Majority of each classroom showed that the
classroom instructions of their teacher have a good effect on them, by passing
their quizzes in the said subject.
RECOMMENDATIONS
The researchers recommend the following for the future studies
School of Saint Anthony
a.) For Teachers, giving respect to the students by understanding their
experiences and knowledge, would help a teacher to develop their relationship
inside a classroom. In this way, the classroom instructions given by the teacher
would be effective.
b.) For Students, respecting the teacher would help you to improve your
relationship within the premises which causes the teacher to give back the
respect. This also causes the classroom instruction to be effective as it is.
c.) For Parents, knowing the relationship of your child with the teacher
would also help you improve your relationship towards your child and the teacher.
You would also know that the classroom instructions given by the teacher is
effective or ineffective based on their quizzes.
