I. CONTEXT AND RATIONALE

Tanauan City is a second-class city with a land area of 10, 967.43 hectares, about 3.47%

of the total land area of the province. Industrialization and increasing population of the city has

decreased its land area allotted to agriculture. Based on the Farmers Registry System, the city

has 2, 866 farmers or 1.88% of its total population (S.M. Rimas, personal communication, July 9,

2021). The Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE) is a skill-based subjects offered in Grade

6 which includes Agriculture component to encourage learners to become interested in Agriculture

over other popular courses for food production and security in the future.

With the pandemic outbreak last March 2020, the agency issued DepEd Order No. 12 s.

2020 otherwise known as the “Adoption of the Basic Education Learning Continuity Plan for School

Year 2020-2021 in Light of the Covid-19 Public Health Emergency.” The Basic Education Learning

Continuity Plan (BE-LCP) engaged internal and external stakeholders in ensuring learning

continuity through K-12 curriculum adjustments, alignment of learning materials, deployment of

multiple learning delivery modalities, provision of corresponding training for teachers and school

leaders, and proper orientation of parents or guardians of learners.

The issuance was further strengthened by guiding the options of stakeholders to different

learning modalities with the issuance of DM-CI-2020-00162 from DepEd Office of the

AMBULONG ELEMENTARY SCHOOL


Brgy Ambulong, Tanauan City, Batangas 4232
es.ambulong@yahoo.com
0920-630-1985
Undersecretary for Curriculum and Instruction, known to be the “Suggested Strategies in

Implementing Distance Learning Delivery Modalities (DLDM) for School Year 2020-2021.” The City

Schools Division of Tanauan is currently implementing the new normal education set-up through

Modular Distance Learning (MDL) which is categorized into Digital Modular Distance Learning

(DMDL) and Printed Modular Distance Learning (PMDL).

The MDL modality paved way to home-based/remote learning wherein the

parents/guardians, family members or stakeholders may provide instructional support when

needed in accomplishing the learning tasks provided in print or digitized. A learner must accomplish

written work and performance in eight learning areas which maybe burdensome but DepEd Order

No. 31, s. 2020 or “Interim Guidelines for Assessment and Grading in Light of the Basic Education

Learning Continuity Plan” advised teachers to collaboratively design and implement learning tasks

that integrate two or more competencies within or across learning areas, known as integrative

assessments. This is in consonance with the DepEd Memorandum OUCI-2020-307 which focuses

on “Suggested Measures to Foster Academic Ease During the Covid-19 Pandemic.” Its primary

purpose is to help the teachers and learners in dealing with essential things related to school during

this period of the pandemic with distance learning adaptation.

Furthermore, the learning journey outside the four corners of the classrooms for every

Tanaueño goes beyond the printed and digitized materials. As they stay at home, DepEd

Memorandum No. 053, s. 2020 encourages the establishment of Gulayan sa Tahanan or Urban

Vegetable Gardening at Home for personal consumption, and improve the income, health, and

well-being of their family members.

In a research study about agricultural awareness and curriculum integration conducted by

Knobloch and Martin (2000), elementary teachers agreed that agriculture could be integrated into

their elementary classes because the basic knowledge of it is needed in making daily decisions.

Further, as indicated by Trexler and Suvedi (1998) in their research paper about perception of

agriculture as a context for elementary science teaching, teachers were comfortable using the

AMBULONG ELEMENTARY SCHOOL


Brgy Ambulong, Tanauan City, Batangas 4232
es.ambulong@yahoo.com
0920-630-1985
problem-solving method, connecting science teaching to community problems, and using

agriculture as a context for science. This means that more concepts in science can be taught

through agricultural examples. K-12 teachers perceived that their students favored topics on food,

nutrition, environment, plants, wildlife, insects, food processing and history which can be integrated

with agriculture concepts.

It is in these frameworks that select teachers in TLE, crafted the Teaching and Learning

Materials for Agricultural Literacy, a brainchild of OIC-SDS Rogelio F. Opulencia, which integrate

both the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) of other learning areas with Agriculture

component of Grade 6 – TLE. A complete teaching-learning package is composed of Pivot 4A

Learner’s Packets (LeaPs), Interdisciplinary Mapped MELCs, Curriculum Implementation Guide

Card for Teachers (tracks the learning tasks, if assigned as summative or formative

assessments), Learning Activity Sheets (LAS) with interdisciplinary MELCs integration,

Pretest/Posttest, Key to Correction and e-class record.

These innovative teaching and learning materials intend to improve the learning

performance and agricultural literacy of learners as we embrace another School Year under the

New Normal. For School Year 2020-2021, Ambulong Elementary School had recorded an average

grade of 83.18% in Grade 6 – TLE Agriculture which is lower than the expected result, if only TLE

was integrated to other learning areas. While there were only 43 out of 133 learners or 32% of the

total Grade 6 learners who established Gulayan sa Tahanan which was the final application last

year from which can be attributed to Taal Volcano Eruption, COVID 19 pandemic and due to

overloading of learners’ tasks. Many of our learners with their family went and lived to other places

far from Taal Volcano for the meantime.

Such circumstances and previous studies scaffold the offering of Grade 6 – TLE Agriculture

component for Quarter 1 of SY 2021-2022. Thus, this research endeavor intends to determine the

effectiveness of localized teaching and learning materials in enhancing the academic performance

and agricultural literacy among Grade 6 learners of Ambulong Elementary School.

II. INNOVATION, INTERVENTION OR STRATEGY

The Teaching and Learning Materials for Agricultural Literacy in Technology and Livelihood

Education (TLE) – Agriculture for teachers and Grade 6 learners of City Schools Division of

Tanauan is the innovation selected by the researchers. These localized materials crafted by the

select Grade 6 Agriculture teachers, include the integration of learning tasks in TLE - Agriculture

with the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) of various disciplines for the First Quarter

of SY 2021-2022. As indicated in Division Memorandum 230, s. 2021, this innovation is under the

umbrella of PAKYAW-ONE in CID TANAUAN, a Divisional Assessment Matrix for Curriculum

Integration in response to Memorandum OUCI -2020-307 entitled Suggested Measures to Foster

“Academic Ease” During the COVID-19 Pandemic and DepEd Order No. 31, s. 2020 entitled

Interim Policy Guidelines for Assessment and Grading in the Light of BE – LCP.

This interdisciplinary integration will allow holistic way of learning, without the restrictions

often imposed by learning standards of each subject area. With integration, comprehensive

learning is achievable by engaging and connecting learning tasks that are relevant, meaningful,

and aligned to various concepts of agricultural literacy.

III. RESEARCH QUESTIONS

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of localized teaching and

learning materials in enhancing academic performance and agricultural literacy among Grade 6

learners of Ambulong Elementary School

AMBULONG ELEMENTARY SCHOOL


Brgy Ambulong, Tanauan City, Batangas 4232
es.ambulong@yahoo.com
0920-630-1985
Specifically, it sought the answer to the following questions:

1. What is the level of performance of Grade 6 learners before

and after the use of agricultural literacy materials?

2. Is there a significant difference between the performance of

Grade 6 learners before and after using the agricultural literacy

materials?

3. To what extent does the interdisciplinary integration of learning

tasks enhance the agricultural literacy of Grade 6 learners?

IV. METHODOLOGY

This section discusses the sampling method and data collection procedure and plan for data

analysis.

A. Sampling

The population considered in this study was the one hundred twenty-three (123) Grade 6

learners taking TLE - Agriculture of Ambulong Elementary School. Using Slovin’s formula, the

sample size is 123 learners with 95% confidence level and 5% margin of error. The sampling

technique used was simple random sampling and the data gathered were from the First Quarter

of SY 2021-2022 since all the respondents took agriculture component in this quarter and utilized

the Teaching and Learning Materials for Agricultural Literacy.

B. Data Collection

Data were gathered to address the research questions contained in the statement of the

problem. The researchers obtained the scores of teacher-made 30-items pre-test within the week

of school opening and 30-items post-test within the week after the end of First Quarter of the

current school year to determine their level of performance. The items in the test were based on

the topics covered in the Teaching and Learning Materials for Agricultural Literacy which were

aligned to the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) issued by the Department of

Education. Validation of the instrument was done by the Education Program Supervisor in

EPP/TLE. Data was collected from the same respondents on both conditions

and each respondent registered a score on the pre-test, and after the utilization of Teaching

and Learning Materials for Agricultural Literacy, a score on the post-test was obtained.

In gathering data on the extent of the interdisciplinary integration of learning tasks in

enhancing the agricultural literacy of Grade 6 learners, researchers prepared questionnaire that

required respondents to use a four-point scale. Each statement was rated with numerical value

from one to four. Descriptive equivalents or verbal interpretation were provided for the

interpretation of results:

documents for the accessibility of the respondents. After the researchers were give permission by

the school head, data gathering was done in two occasions. The data generated from the web-

based application were collected, tabulated, and analyzed.

C. Plan for Data Analysis

The researchers will utilize the quantitative – descriptive method for this research

undertaking. In determining the levels of performance on both pretest and posttest, mean will be

used while standard deviation and t-test will determine its significant difference. In treating the

data on the results of questionnaire with Likert Scale, the weighted mean and rank will be

employed. Based on the collective findings from the research questions, action plan may be

proposed.

V. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The tables present the data gathered to show the mean scores of the pretest and posttest,

results of the paired t-test and posttest and the extent of enhancing literacy among the

respondents.

Presented on the table above was the result of both pre-test and post-test of the 100

respondents in the 30-item test conducted by the researchers before and after the utilization of

Technology and Livelihood Education. It showed that the pre-test acquired a mean of 12.34 and

mean of 25.08 for the post-test, with a gain of 12.74.

It can be deduced that there was an outstanding increase in the academic performance of

the learners after the utilization of the Technology and Livelihood Education. Such results suggests

that the utilization of the localized teaching and learning materials is highly effective in enhancing

learner’s academic performance as well as increasing the agricultural literacy of the Grade 6

leaners.

95%.

Therefore, the results confirmed that there is a real difference between the pre-test and post-

test. This concluded that the mean of post-test is greater than the mean of pre-test which indicates

the effectivity of utilizing localized teaching and learning materials. It can be inferred that the

observed difference between the two means is statistically significant. In other words, there is

overwhelming evidence that a "gain" has taken place on the post-test because of using the

Localized Teaching and Learning Materials for Agricultural Literacy.

The learners rated the extent of enhancing agricultural literacy by responding to the ten

(10) researcher-made questions after the utilization of the learning material.

Table 3 showed that the learners ranked highest the item Learners manifested the

optimism to learn more concepts and demonstrate agricultural skills in next grade level with a

weighted mean of 3.78, interpreted as to a great extent. It can be deduced that the respondents

manifested the optimism to learn more concepts and demonstrate agricultural skills in next grade

level. It also indicates that the teachers effectively conveyed the concept of entrepreneurship to

the Grade 6 learners.

Learned that agriculture is very profitable and viable long-term livelihood ranked second,

having 3.76 weighted mean. As such, respondents learned that agriculture is very profitable and

viable long-term livelihood. Next to this, they declared Reduced the number of tasks in other

subjects due to the integration of TLE to a great extent, with weighted mean of 3.68 and ranked

third in order distribution. It can be inferred that reduction of tasks in other subjects due to the

integration of TLE is considered significant. This implies that the integration made greatly helps

the respondents as well as the teachers.

The item can establish an organic urban garden at their homes or raise farm animals as

food source with verbal interpretation of to some extent obtained a weighted mean of 3.39 ranked

last among the responses. This signifies that there is a less possibility that learners will establish

an organic urban garden at their homes or raise farm animals as food source. The gap can be

attributed to the availability of space and agricultural materials and tools to establish home garden.

Moreover, this suggests that there is a need for teachers to strengthen the learner’s drive to eat

more plant-based food and reduce the expenses in buying commercially grown agricultural

products.

The learners themselves indicated that it only affected them to some extent the item .

possessed the ability to do projects, assignments and learning activities in other subjects with

agricultural concepts., ranking second from the last with a weighted mean of 3.42. This lower rank

the limited number of learning tasks by integration with other disciplines has taught some learners

that they can make outputs for other subjects using concepts and terminologies in agriculture, thus,

sustaining their learning from quarter 1 on agriculture component.

Linking to this item to some extent is completed all learning tasks with integration with other

subjects with weighted mean of 3.51, ranked 8th which implies that completing all learning tasks

with the help of integration with other subjects is conducive and beneficial.

As presented in Table 3, learners perceived that out of ten items, only two items were

described to have to some extent effect while the remaining eight items were to a great extent. In

general, the Grade 6 learners described the interdisciplinary integration of learning tasks in

enhancing the agricultural literacy to a great extent with composite mean of 3.576. This means that

that the localized teaching and learning materials in Agricultural Literacy was effective in integrating

the competencies of other disciplines in the learning tasks and enhancing the learners’ interest in

agriculture that will benefit them, their families, and the surrounding communities.
