    UTILIZATION OF STRATEGIC INTERVENTION MATERIAL (SIM)


    FOR MASTERY IN READING IN SHS SPECIALIZED SUBJECTS AMONG
    GRADE 12 ABM LEARNERS

    An Action Research
    Presented to the

    SCHOOL RESEARCH COMMITTEE

    JAVIER, MARGIE T.
    DULLANO, FLORAMAE A.
    MANANSALA, MA. ROWENA R.

    FEBRUARY 2023
    I. CONTEXT AND RATIONALE

    According to Department of Education Secretary VP Sara Duterte, research shows

    low reading ability of students enrolled in public school. Hence, it is a challenge for all

    teachers in the SHS program to create learning conditions that integrate reading intervention

    program. With this in mind, we want a research-based intervention, hence, this study,

    “Utilization of Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) for Mastery in Reading in SHS

    Specialized Subjects among Grade 12 ABM Learners.”

    As an educator, the teacher-researcher is motivated to conduct this action research this

    2nd semester of School Year 2022-2023 in Lagao National High School on the “Utilization of

    Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) for Mastery in Reading in SHS Specialized subjects

    among Grade 12 ABM Learners.”

    Since there are no studies that describe the utilization of and current capacity for mastery

    in reading yet especially in the specialized subject. As a coping strategy to the new normal

    education, new best practices in teaching the specialized subject should be developed and

    researched, teaching strategies need to evolve as well. Hence, this study.

    II. Action Research Questions

    This study aims to determine the effect of utilizing the Strategic Intervention Material

    (SIM) in improving the mastery in reading in SHS specialized subjects among Grade 12

    ABM learners.

    Specifically, this seeks to answer the following questions:

    1. What are the pretest scores of the Grade 12 ABM learners in reading before the

    intervention?

    2. What are the posttest scores of the Grade 12 ABM learners in their specialized

    subjects after the intervention?


    3. Is there a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores of the Grade

    12 ABM learners in their specialized subjects before and after the intervention?

    III. Innovation/Intervention/Strategy

    This action research will utilize the Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) refers to a

    teaching aid introduced into the teaching methods to stimulate the activity of the students

    and thereby increase their level of understanding (Sinco, 2018). It tends to reteach the

    lessons which are not clear to the learners and help them gain mastery of the skills

    (Maribbay, 2022). SIM is designed to (a) remediate the learners especially in the least

    learned competencies; (b) engage the learners through interesting activities; (c) capture

    learners’ interest by making the material pleasing to the eyes; and (d) encourage the

    learners to think more, do more, and learn more.

    The participants for this action research will be the Grade 12 ABM students who have

    language deficiency and poor conceptual skills and are enrolled in the specialized subjects

    in School Year 2022-2023

    The conduct of this action research will begin on the third week of February 2023 and

    will last up to the 2nd week of April 2023. This will be implemented in Lagao National

    High School-Main in San Isidro, Purok Malakas, General Santos City.

    The teacher-researcher will use Strategic Intervention Material as the primary concept

    of the applied innovation, intervention, and strategy to enhance the learning performance

    of Grade 12 students under ABM Strand of Lagao National High School. The table below

    shows the sub parts of the SIM program in this study.

    Objective Innovation and Strategy


    Intervention
    To improve Use of Strategic 1. Conduct Pretest
    student’s mastery Intervention Material 2. Provide learning session;
    in reading (SIM) as the primary 3. Upload recorded lectures, materials,
    specifically in concept for and videos;
    their specialized innovation and
    subjects intervention 5. Create a group chat (gc) for students
    for updates and posting of learning
    materials;
    6. Reflect on students’ personal
    experiences in their reading activity.
    7.Conduct Posttest

    IV. Action Research Methods

    This action research will utilize the Experimental research design specifically the pre-

    experimental design.

    The pre-test and post-test design is a sort of experimental research that allows for a

    simple assessment of an intervention delivered to a group of study participants. The pretest–

    posttest design is based on collecting a pretest measure of the target outcome prior to starting

    therapy, followed by a posttest on the same measure once treatment is finished (Alessandri,

    2017).

    a. Participants and/or other Sources of Data and Information

    The population sample of this study includes Grade 12 students under ABM Strand of

    Lagao National High School. All the participants will pre-assessed prior to intervention and

    all subject to treatment to know their improvement at the end of the study. All students from

    the list of eligible Grade 12 under ABM Strand will be included in the sample. The study

    participants voluntarily consented to participate in the study. Finally, students will have the

    opportunity to exclude themselves by not agreeing to participate in the study.

    b. Data Gathering Methods

    The teacher-researcher first will secure a Letter of Request from the School Principal.

    Upon its approval, proper coordination with the parents of the participants and the student

    participants will be done by the teacher-researcher via messenger, text message or phone call.

    After permission will granted, the teacher-researcher will personally conduct the pretest
    consisting of 20 items to all the participants to identify their mastery in reading in the

    specialized subjects.

    It will be conducted on an agreed schedule to avoid disruption of classes. Results of

    pretest will be collected and checked by the teacher researcher herself and will determine

    their mastery in reading at the start of the study. Following the conduct of the pretest will be

    the treatment or the use of the Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) in their specialized

    subjects personally crafted by the teacher-researcher to be employed to the respondents of

    this study. Intervention materials will be given to the students for eight (8) weeks. The 20-

    item posttest will then be given after the invention period to assess if there is a change in their

    academic performance classification. The results of the pretest and the posttest will be

    compared to determine if there will be an improvement in their mastery in reading and assess

    if the chosen strategy is effective or not.

    c. Data Analysis Plan

    The teacher-researcher started the experimental research upon the principal’s approval

    and the study from the pre assessment, implementation of intervention, to the post assessment

    that will last for eight (8) weeks.

    To describe the learning performance of the participants before the intervention,

    frequency count and percentage of the pretest scores will be used.

    After the intervention, the frequency count and percentage will also be used to

    analyze the learning performance of the Grade 12 ABM learners.

    And to evaluate the significant difference between the pre-intervention and post-

    intervention score in , dependent t-test using one group will be utilized.
