Abstract: The Action Research generally aimed to determine the effectiveness of the TRIAD Approach in improving the numeracy skills of Grade 6 learners in Tandoc Elementary School for the School Year 2022-2023. The study utilized a descriptive - quantitative and experimental research approach to attain the objectives and answer the specific questions raised in the study. The 20 participants in the study were grouped into control and experimental group, selected through teacher-made pre-assessment tool and used to identify the level of numeracy skills of the learners. The study revealed that before the utilization of the TRIAD Approach the two groups of learners were considered poorly numerate as revealed by the mean score of 5.6 and 5.1 respectively. The findings also shows that the control group have no improvement after the series of intervention as compared to experimental group whose result in the post assessment manifest improvement as based form the mean score of 10.4 and 15. On the other hand, there is no significant difference in the performance of control group and experimental group as based on pre-assessment scores with the computed p-value of 0.509. It was also found out that there is a significant difference on the level of numeracy skills of the control group as compared to experimental group as based on post assessment score which is revealed by computed p-value of 0.000. Furthermore, there is a significant difference on the level of numeracy skills of the experimental group before and after the implementation of the intervention through TRIAD Approach, manifested by the computed p-value of 0.000. The teacher-researcher concludes that TRIAD Approach is an effective intervention to improve the numeracy skills of the learners. Thus, it is recommended that teachers may utilized the TRIAD Approach not just to improve numeracy skills but rather enhance the learners skill in mathematics. The TRIAD Approach may also be applicable to other subject areas to improve and enhance learners skill in reading, writing, and others.

Abstract: Isa sa mga dapat malinang ng isang mag-aaral na kaniyang magagamit sa primarya, sekondarya, tersyary hanggang siya ay humakbang mundo puno ng hamon ay ang pagsulat. Isa ito sa mga makrong kasanayan na dapat matutunan ng isang tao, kabilang ang pakikinig, pagbasa, pagsasalita at ang panghuli, panonood. Bilang hamon sa mga ahensya ng ng edukasyon ibig pataasin ang literasiya ng bawat mag-aaral sa mga nabanggit na makrong kasanayan. Bilang tugon sa mga programang ito, isa ang pagsulat sa mas binigyang pansin upang mapaglaanan ng panahon at alokasyon ng pondo upang mas maisakatuparan ang mga hangarin nito sa pagsulat. Ang kasanayang ito ay maituturing na pinakamahirap sa lahat sapagkat ito ay bunga ng mga naririnig, bunga ng mga nababasa, at napapanood upang ang isang tao ay makasulat nang isang masusi at makabuluhang pahayag na kaniyang maituturing piyesa. Isa man ito sa mga nagiging malaking hamon sa bawat mag-aaral sa bansa, ngunit isa ito sa mga kakayahan na magdadala sa tugatog ng tagumpay ng bawat mamayan hindi lang sa domistikong larangan ngunit maging sa ibayong lugar sa ibang bansa. Ang pinakalayunin ng pamanahong pananaliksik na ito ay tumaas ang literasi ng pagsulat ng mga mag-aaral ng ika-12 baitang ng Humanities and Social Sciences ng (HUMSS) ng Laoac National High School, Distrito ng Laoac, Sangay ng Pangasinan II sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng sanayang gawain sa filipino. Hinahangad din nitong makahanap ng sagot kung may makabuluhang pagkakaiba sa pagganap ng mga respondente pagkatapos gamitin ang inobasyon o interbensyon sa loob ng 8 linggo. May tatlumpu’t walo (38) na mag-aaral ang isinailalim bilang respondente sa pagsasagawa ng pananaliksik na ito. Isang pre-test at post-test na disenyo ang ginamit para sa pag-aaral na ito gamit ang rubrics o pamantayan ang mga instrumentong ginamit sa pangangalap ng mga kinakailangang datos. Batay sa natuklasang resulta, nagkaroon ng makabuluhang pag-unlad sa kasanayan sa pagsulat ng mga respondente matapos silang malantad sa mga aktibidad gamit ang sanayang gawain sa filipino (SAGAFIL) sa loob ng 8 linggo. Ang paraan ng mga pagsusulit ay tila may pagtaas na 12.72 sa pagganap o performans ng mga mag- aaral sa posttest pagkatapos ng pangangasiwa ng interbensyon. Samantala, mula sa datos gamit ng critical value na dulog na may alpha na 0.05, lumalabas na ang absolute value ng nakalkuladong z-stat (-15.513154) ay humigit lumampas sa criticial value gamit ang two-tail (1.95996398) na nagpapahiwatig na reject ang null hypothesis, samakatuwid ang resulta mula sa isinagawang interbensyon na sanayang gawain sa filipino ay may mahalagang kabuluhan sa performans ng mag-aaral na magreresulta sa magandang marka lalong lalo na sa larangan ng pagsulat.

Improving the Performance of Kindergarten Pupils in Classifying Objects through Animated Instructional Dandaniw (AID)

Avegail Natividad | Published: June 06, 2026

Abstract: This action research study aimed to enhance the performance of kindergarten pupils in classifying objects through the implementation of Animated Instructional Dandaniw (AID). The study involved a static group comparison, with a control group and an experimental group, utilizing observations and pre-test and post-test assessments. The results revealed that, initially, both groups had a majority of learners in the "Developing" category, with some variability in scores. However, after the intervention, the Experimental Group, exposed to Animated Instructional Dandaniw, showed a significant improvement, with all learners achieving a "Consistent" level. Statistical analysis demonstrated a substantial difference in mean performance scores between the Control and Experimental groups, with the Experimental Group outperforming the Control Group. The AID intervention, integrating ICT and Ilokano poetry, proved effective in engaging learners and enhancing their object classification skills. The study suggests that innovative instructional methods, such as Animated Instructional Dandaniw, contribute to a more interactive and stimulating learning environment in early childhood education. Recommendations include providing teacher training in integrating animated instructional materials and encouraging parental involvement in reinforcing learning. Future research could explore the long-term effects of animated instructional dandaniw on cognitive development and academic performance.

Enhancing the Resistor Color Coding and Decoding of the Electronics Students through Demonstration Method with the Aid of Electrodoc Application

Elvis Aguillana | Published: June 06, 2026

Abstract: Educational technology plays a vital role in an effective teaching and learning process. In the field of information and communications technology, it creates digital literacy and knowledge-building among learners enabled them to learn effectively. In today’s era, students are more techno-savvy and are ready to search for and learn most things through the internet (Sewarkar, 2014). This action research study aims to integrate ICT in the learning setting. The researcher found out that the least mastered competency of the Grade 12 electronics students is measurement and calculation, which include resistor color coding and decoding. So, to address the problem, the researcher used an intervention, which is the demonstration method, with the aid of the electrodoc application. The researcher administered a pre- and post- performance test in gathering the data. The mean was used to determine the level of performance of the grade 12 electronics students before and after the electrodoc application was utilized. The results of this study shows that the intervention conducted by the researcher is effective. From their pre test and post test performance, it indicates that from a composite mean of 6.05, which is equivalent to a “below average," on their pre test performance test, it improved to a 90.5 mean for an "excellent" post test performance. Since the computed t-value of 7.31 is greater than the critical value of ± 1.729 at the level of significance with 19 degrees of freedom, the null hypothesis is rejected. Hence, there is a significant difference in the results of the pre-test and post-test of the Grade 12 electronics students. The results of this study benefited teachers, learners, school administrations, and other stakeholders by encouraging them to use this intervention in their teaching and learning processes. The electronics teachers, technical-vocational teachers, and physical science teachers can use this intervention in their classes, especially when their topic is all about resistor color coding and decoding.
