aims of teachers, curriculum developers systematically attempt to identify research findings they
can incorporate in materials that will facilitate connections between teachers, the curriculum, and
students.
In educational research, there are some studies related to the descriptions of learning and
the existence of the learning process. Recently, in the national education sector, the use of

factors affecting students’ academic performance. Teachers and School Administrators are
always in the front lines when their students’ academic performance decline.
To perform is to take a complex series of actions that integrate skills and knowledge to
people who are collaborating, such as an academic department, research team, committee,
student team, or a university. Performance, as the adage goes, is a “journey, not a destination.”
The location in the journey is labeled as the level of performance. Each level characterizes the
Performance, as the adage goes, is a “journey, not a destination.” The location in the
journey is labeled as the level of performance. Each level characterizes the effectiveness or
quality of performance. As an academic department improves its level of performance, the
members of the department are able to produce more effective student learning, more effective
Educational institutions are mandated to use education as a tool for social transformation.
The success of a school is measured by the quality of students it produces. The success of any
educational institution is measured by the performance of its students in both academic and non-
academic texts.
Teacher effectiveness has been the interest of policymakers, educators, and parents. The

ineffective teachers; on the other hand, those who excel are taught by the very effective teachers.
In addition to cultivating knowledge, skills, and attitudes teachers are expected to help
the students to identify and develop their potential. In the early stages of education, teachers are
charged with the responsibility to develop students’ primary skills necessary for advancement.
Teachers play a pivotal role in helping the students to direct their potential to achieve their
destiny. Learners need to be prepared for these challenges that lie ahead of them.
This is anchored in the idea that our world needs a generation of teachers who aim to
“develop learners instead of teaching them, who help their learners to become independent

that students have more interest in a topic when a variety of teaching methods are implemented.

According to the study conducted by (Byford et.al 2004) that Social Studies are vital for
the intellectual outlook of the present time, although there is a general tendency among the
people to be much less conscious of the value of the subject. Social Studies is just a course of
memorization; to pass the subject means memorizing a bulk of dates, events, personages, and
others. Many students do not realize that Social Studies is the medium to make an inquiry, to
investigate and understand society. As such, it is eventually the avenue to mirror oneself. With
the appropriate teaching strategy, Social Studies makes students realize the why’s and how’s of
the society they are in and eventually identify their real nature as a human being and as a race.
Teaching strategies are much imperative for students to appreciate their daily lessons or
activities. However, it is a reality that there are teachers who use only one teaching style day
after day, which denies students the opportunity of a variety of teaching techniques.
In the Philippine educational setting, there has been a dramatic change in which all leads
to being at par with the international standards. Innovations and initiatives have been made in
order to amplify the scheme that would qualify the criteria of the globally competitive learning
industry. This gives birth to the creation of the K to 12 programs of the Department of Education
which was implemented a couple of years ago. The K to 12 programs are deemed important in
the qualitative and quantitative development of individuals by adding another two years to basic
education.
According to former President Benigno S. Aquino III, “We need to add two years to our
basic education and those who can afford to pay up to fourteen years of schooling before
university”. He also asserted that children are getting into the best universities and the best jobs
after graduation, believing that after 12 years for public school, children will be given countless
chances at succeeding.” In line with this, He proclaimed the Republic Act no. 10533, also known
as The Enhanced Basic Education. The aspiration of Education for All 2015 and the Philippine K
