LEARNING EPISODE 3
(Understanding AR Concepts, Processes and Models)

MR. JEROME JEF M. ZAMORA


FS 2 TEACHER

UMALI, JEAN CLARISSE T.


BEED IV
NOTICE

What concept have you been emphasized in the task and infographics? Give at least
four.

1. Demonstrate many action research models and the methodology behind them.
2. Discusses the methods of conducting action research.
3. It emphasizes the elements of action research.
4. Understand what action research is and how to use it in a classroom setting.

Since the 3 models are all for action research, what are the common elements of the
three?

The common elements of the three models of action research is Nelson, O 2014
Model that starts with Observe followed by Reflect, Plan and Act.

ANALYZE

Choose the AR sample Abstract that you submitted in Episode 2.

 Analyze the components vis-à-vis only one model out of the three presented.
 If you choose to compare with Model B-Nelson, O. 2014, here are the
components.
Title and Author of the Action Research:

ENHANCING THE PERFORMANCE OF GRADE VI-C PUPILS OF BUYAGAN ELEMENTARY


SCHOOL THROUGH THE USE OF ARTS IN MATH (AIM)
by:LORNA V. WALLIT
Key Components Entry from your Sample AR
OBSERVE The Problem

In Buyagan Elementary School, Mathematics had been


noted as one of the most difficult subject since it consists of
a collection of facts and skills to be memorized or mastered
by a relatively heterogeneous group of pupils.
REFLECT Reflection

The researcher in her role as a Mathematics teacher


concerned herself on how to help the pupils perform better
in the field of Mathematics. This concern made the
researcher planned to find possible solutions that could assist
the Grade Six Section C pupils of Buyagan Elementary
School in enhancing their level of performance in
Mathematics.
PLAN Plan of Action

The action research aims to enhance the performance of


Grade VI-C Pupils in Mathematics in Buyagan Elementary
School through the use of Arts In Math (AIM). Specifically, the
action research sought to: 1) use Arts in Math (AIM) to
enhance the mastery level of Grade VI-C in Mathematics, 2)
improve comprehension skills of Grade 6 on Mathematics
concepts through the use of “Arts in Math (AIM)”, 3) use “Arts
In Math (AIM)” to stimulate, motivate and sustain pupils’
interest in Mathematics and 4) improve the teaching
strategy in Mathematics through AIM.
ACT Implementation

The study was conducted for two quarters from June-


October 2015(1st and 2nd Grading) with 46 pupils as the
target subjects. The study made use of the one -shot
experimental design to look into the effectiveness of “Arts In
Math (AIM)” in improving pupils’ performance in
Mathematics. The findings showed that the use of Arts In
Math (AIM) enhanced the performance of Grade VI-C
Pupils in Mathematics. For the first quarter, there was an
increase of 34.13 in the MPS and 29.79 for the second
quarter. Using the t-test of the difference between means of
correlated data, the t- test computed value of 23.71 for the
first quarter and 32.37 for the second quarter is more than
the critical value of 1.676 at 0.05 level of significance with 45
degrees of freedom.

What have you understood about the concept of Action Research and how will these
be utilized in your practice?

The action research is applied to enhance educational practice. To address the


problem and make a change and solution to it. It allowing us to grow personally and
professionally. Action research can identify the issues that require immediate action, I
may apply it in my practice teaching. I think action research has made a significant
contribution to my career as a teacher in the future, helping me to better myself as a
teacher and my pupils.

REFLECT

As a future teacher, is conducting Action Research worth doing? Why?

 As a future teacher, conducting Action Research is worth doing.

Why?

 Because it is used to address practical problems in classroom. As like I said above,


action research has made a significant contribution to my career as a teacher in
the future, helping me to better myself as a teacher and my pupils too. Because
of action research I became aware that there are many problems that
elementary pupils had.
How can AR be useful for every classroom teacher?

 The identification of problems that need to be solved is action research. Every


teacher in the classroom will profit from this since they will be aware of the issues
that need to be addressed in the classroom in order to benefit both the children
and the school.

WRITE ACTION RESEARCH PROMPTS

OBSERVE

Remembering my classroom observation in FS 1, I noticed that there are many


questions that I raised in my mind. These include:

a) How can students focus during discussion?


b) How can students motivate to take part in activities?
c) How can students learn to make a simple sentence with correct grammar and
spelling?

REFLECT

Think deeply about those problems, perhaps something must have been done to solve
the problem or answer the question, like:

PLAN

a) By making a unique ways of teaching using eye-catch instructional material or


visual aids.
b) By giving a condition like rewards to the students who joined.
c) By assisting them and teaching the correct spelling and grammar repeatedly
until they get it.

Now, that I am in FS 2, I plan to make a plan for my solution to problem (choose from a,
b, c) because they can continue to utilize it till they are old. Person can speak effectively
and humanely if they can construct a statement using good grammar and spelling.

ACT

My action will come later, given enough time in FS 2 or during my Teaching Internship.
