ABSTRACT

—— This study was conducted in order to evaluate the Effectiveness of Synchronous Learning Approach to the Performance of the Grade 1 pupils in Filipino. The findings of the study were the bases for a proposed intervention Plan. This research is a quasi-experimental study that used the pre-test – post- test experimental designs to determine the Effect of Synchronous Learning Approach to the Performance of the Grade 1 pupils in the delivery of the most essential learning competencies in 1st grading period in Filipino subject. In the Quasi- experimental research design, the researcher prepared different digital learning materials that were focused on the learning competencies as well as facilitating in the giving of pretest and posttest to the identified respondents in order to gather necessary data that will be significant in the study. The researcher utilized universal Sampling in selecting the respondents of the study. In the Filipino subject, which was focused on various learning competencies during the first grading period, Table 3 displays the test of difference between the pretest and posttest scores performances of the grade 1 learners. After using the various learning modalities that their school had to offer, the 30 respondents were assessed for their learning capacity, and the results were compiled. This is how much each respondent had learned about the Filipino subject. Additionally, these outcomes only showed up before and after the Synchronous learning approach was integrated into the teaching of the most important learning competencies in the previously mentioned subject, which was solely focused on the first grading period. Based on the data in Table 3, it is evident that Grade 1 students’ pretest performance in Filipino was 9.06, which is significantly lower than their posttest performance, which equals 19.97. that, at the 0.05 level of significance, produced a computed t value of 1.651 and a critical t value of 0.712. The hypothesis, which states that there is no significant difference between the pretest and posttest score performances of the grade 1 pupils in Filipino before and after the integration of the Synchronous Learning Approach, is rejected based on the results in Table 3, which clearly show that there was a positive effect on the performance of the learners in both the pretest and posttest. Additionally, the computed t value is higher than the critical T value, indicating the significance of the study. The Grade 1 learners’ learning skills and self-esteem could be enhanced by exposing them to new learning strategies or methods of instruction. As a result, they will be more eager to learn new things and discover new learning through the introduction of new learning methods. These students, in particular, wanted new things practically constantly while learning the subject, especially mathematics. Applying the previously mentioned learning strategy is therefore very beneficial and truly assisted the Grade 1 learners in enhancing their abilities.
