Discipline: Education

 

Abstract:

This study developed and validated The Science Pyramid or The SciePy, an innovative strategic intervention material in least learned competencies in Physics 8. The researcher used the ADDIE model and the Department of Education’s LRMDS Evaluation Tool on Manipulative content, manipulative designs, and error-free factors, which were evaluated by six experts in science education. Thirty-one student-participants, who needed intervention, utilized it during learning sessions and validated its effectiveness based on their pre-test and post-test results. The findings revealed that The SciePy passed all factors, specifically 38.83 out of 40.00 in content, 16.00 out of 16.00 in error-free issues, and 23.83 out of 24.00 in manipulative designs. Therefore, it was found valid and recommended by validators to be utilized for learning sessions. Eventually, the paired t-test results showed that there was a significant difference in the participants’ scores with a significant p-value of <0.001. Thus, there was a remarkable improvement in the participants’ scores using The SciePy.
