CONTENT AND RATIONALE

Being a successful learner starts with having a positive attitude towards

learning. “Change is the only constant in life”, there word is according to Greek
Philosopher Heraclitus, amidst the pandemic many thing has change including
the students way of learning. The sudden change may affect the students attitude
and behavior which can also lead on not studying at all.

As some researcher saw that using a different in-differences framework

with diverse adoption dates per school, the result indicates that modular
education may reduce school dropout. Research has shown that student exhibit
negative attitude towards using module as their way of learning.

CHAPTER 5

INNOVATION, INTERVENTION AND STRATEGY

The study is intended to see how modular learning affect the students
attitude and behavior. This first chapter of research study summarizes about what
is the attitude and behavior of Grade 6 students in Pablo M. Conag Elementary
School towards modular learning, if it has an impact on the students academic
achievements. Previous research on the attitude and behavior of Grade 6
students in Pablo M. Conag Elementary School towards modular learning is
reviewed on the second chapter. Chapter three, acknowledges the people who
helped for the success of this research study. Chapter four is in the context and
rationale. Innovation, intervention and strategy is included in chapter 5. Action
research questions is provided in chapter six. Action research methods in chapter
seven with the participants and other sources of data information, and gathering
method. Chapter eight is the discussion and result and reflection. And lastly,
provide the action plan of the study.

students attitudes and behavior in their modular learning during this pandemic.

1. What is the profile of grade 6 pupils in terms of age, gender, role in family
income and parents educational attainment?
2. How does modular learning affects pupil mental health?
