Implementation of the standard procedures in the delivery of science modular instruction (SMI) through home-based learning (HBL) approach in the schools division of Marinduque

Abstract

This study was conducted to find out if the implementation of the standard procedures in the delivery of Science Modular Instruction (SMI) through Home-Based Learning (HBL) approach was followed. It made use of a mixed method of research, the qualitative and quantitative research design, One Sample T-Test and Paired T-Test as statistical tools and a researcher-made questionnaire as an instrument. Results revealed that, majority of the Teachers performed the roles and functions in nine phases within the standards set by DepEd, while majority of them performed the roles and functions in three phases below the standards. Majority of the teachers performed well on their functions focusing on the preparation of learning resources, while majority of them performed not so well on their functions focusing on learning and student-centered and communication focus. With this result, gaps were identified in all phases of implementation, however, bigger gaps were noted in the three phases. In the light of this findings, the researcher proposes a model on the standard procedures in the delivery of Modular Instruction through HBL approach to effectively implement the same approach even after the pandemic for this approach could be used on inclement weather days and other unexpected natural calamities.
