This study generally examined the multiple intelligences of the Senior high school (SHS) students under the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) strand and their performance in the specialized subjects. Descriptive and comparative research designs were utilized to measure the variation among the identified study variables. It involved 193 STEM students (composed of 94 males and 99 females) who were selected using complete enumeration sampling. Secondary data on students' performance in the specialized subjects and an adopted Multiple Intelligence Inventory survey questionnaire were employed to collect the data. The T-test for two independent samples was likewise used to examine the significant difference between the performance in the specialized subjects of students with STEM strand as their preferred choice and those who do not prefer STEM. Based on the results, interpersonal intelligence was shown to be the most dominant intelligence type among STEM students, whereas logical intelligence was determined to be the least dominant. On the specialized subjects’ performance, the students demonstrated very good to superior performance in pre-calculus, general biology, and basic calculus subjects. Meanwhile, the study indicated no significant difference in the specialized subjects’ performance between students with STEM strand as their preferred choice and those who do not prefer STEM. Career guidance orientation for students must be reinforced so that they can be advised on what career track or stand to take in senior high school. Future related studies are suggested to further substantiate the results.
An Examination of Written Work and Performance Task in General Mathematics and Precalculus of Filipino STEM Learners. Objectives: This study examined the correlation between written work (WW) and performance task (PT) scores in general mathematics and precalculus of Filipino STEM learners at one public senior high school in the provincial capital of Leyte, Philippines, and compared the WW and PT scores of male and female learners. Methods: The quantitative approach using correlational and comparative designs was used to analyze the data obtained from the WW and PT scores of the 119 STEM learners (58 males and 61 females). Findings: Findings revealed a moderately positive and highly significant correlation between WW and PT scores of STEM learners. The difference in the WW and PT scores between male and female groups likewise displayed statistical significance, with the female group performing higher in WW and PT than their male counterparts. Conclusion: The development of state-of-the-art teaching strategies and practices can be utilized as input geared towards improving mathematics teaching and Filipino STEM learners' mathematics performance.
During COVID-19, ensuring that students were fulfilled with the quality of learning they received posed issues, especially for students learning mathematics in a modular and online setup. The purpose of this study is to determine the modular and online learning satisfaction in mathematics of the student- respondents, in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. A descriptive cross-sectional research design was employed to provide a snapshot of the two hundred forty-six (246) junior and senior high student- respondents’ modular and online learning satisfaction in mathematics, along with the measured parameters. Based on the results, the respondents indicated that they were satisfied with the implemented modular learning in mathematics during the pandemic. On the online learning aspect, the respondents expressed a moderate level of satisfaction with their online learning experience. Educational institutions must innovate and keep up with the new normal teaching practices to ensure that the quality of education is sustained over time. Recommendations were also provided to assist the entire academic community in understanding how students approach the mathematics subject in the modular and online learning contexts.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
