Title: Teaching Least Matered Skills in Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao 4 Using
Differentiated Instruction
by:
Marlen B. del Rosario
I. Context and Rationale
A major issue for all teachers today is making learning engaging
and participatory. Teachers must think beyond the box. simply to ensure that all
students have the knowledge and information they require. Differentiated
education, a curriculum that offers many learning options in the classroom
depending on the learner's interests, abilities, and requirements, is one of the
greatest strategies. According to Alexandria (2017), teaching using differentiated
instruction is innovative and holistic. Additionally, this method of instruction
needs to provide each student with more efficient learning chances. Teachers
and students must work together to develop activities that are appropriate for
each student's talents, interests, and requirements. Tomlinson (1999) also
stated that differentiation of content refers to a change in the material being
learned by a student. The term "differentiation of process" describes how a
learner accesses the material. While another student searches the internet for
information, one student may explore a learning facility. The term "differentiation
of product" describes how a learner demonstrates what he or she has learnt. To
present this option to students, the teacher must first assess their learning.
Teaching Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao affects pupils' minds as
well as their hearts. EsP was taught via spiral progression in K12. With spiral
progression, fundamental ideas, major concepts, and significant tasks are
reviewed at every grade level as part of an ongoing investigation that deepens
and becomes more sophisticated as a result of interesting challenges and
application.
The purpose of this action research is to use pupils performance
as a basis for differentiated instruction in the Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao's
least-mastered abilities. Kids with learning impairments and students who are
regarded as having high ability will both gain from this endeavor. The student's
academic performance can be raised with the use of differentiated instruction.
The goal of this action research is to improve the academic
performance of randomly chosen Grade 4 pupils of Daine Elementary School by
concentrating on the least-mastered skills.
II. Action Research Questions
The primary goal of this action research is to use tailored
instruction to raise Grade 4 pupils' academic performance in the least-mastered
Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao skills.
Specifically, it will seek the answers to the following questions:
1. What is the level of academic performance in the least mastered
skills of selected Grade 4 pupils in the before and after the use of
differentiated instruction?
2. Is there a significant difference on the level of academic performance
in the least mastered skills of selected Grade 4 pupils before and
after the use of differentiated instruction?
3. What are the implications of the findings of this action research for
the improvement of academic performance in the least mastered
skills in Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao 4?
III. Proposed Innovation, Intervention and Strategy
A project to improve pupils performance was developed as a
differentiated instruction that will aid students in Edukasyon sa
Pagpapakatao in improving their comprehension of the subject's least-
mastered abilities. The project's main goal is to use differentiated
instruction to help students learn more effectively. It will concentrate on
material analysis and later assist students in understanding the skills they
haven't yet acquired. The research will concentrate on the Edukasyon sa
Pagpapakatao's least developed talents.
The third week of October 2022, the researchers will perform a
pre-test on the least-mastered abilities in Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao,
and the second week of November 2022, the researchers will conduct a
post-test.
IV. Action Research Method
a. Participants and/ or other Sources of Data and Information
Thirty (30) high-risk Grade 4 pupils who will benefit from the
intervention will be the class being used. The parents' consent will be
obtained before informing them that their child will participate in the
aforementioned action research.
b. Data Gathering Methods
In gathering data for this study, the following step will be
undertaken:
1. Validation of the research instrument.
2. Administration of the pre-test in the least mastered skills in second
grading of Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao 4
3. The use of Differentiated Instruction in teaching the least mastered
skills in second grading of Edukasyon sa Pagpapakatao 4.
4. Administer post- test in selected Grade 4 pupils.
c. Data Analysis Plan
Problem 1: Weighted mean and paired t-test of pre-test, post-test and
gain score of the pupils in the test will be used to answer the problem
no 1.
Problem 2: Paired t-test of mean performance of the pupils before and
after the use of Differentiated Instruction will be used to answer
problem no 2.
Problem 3: Qualitative means of analyzing data through observation
and interview will be utilized to answer problem no 3.
V. Action Research Work Plan and Timeline
Activity Estimated Timeframe
Validation of research instrument First week of September 2022
