INTERVENTION PROGRAM

I. TITLE
Proposed Intervention Program on Misconceptions in Metric Conversion

II. RATIONALE
Learning Metric Conversion provides learners with chances and enriches their life.
Conversion teaches students important computational and problem-solving principles
as well as essential mathematical skills. It develops the numeracy and critical
thinking skills that all students needed in their personal and civic lives. The goal of
this proposed intervention program is to address learner’s misconceptions and errors
when solving metric conversion. Also, for the learners to appreciate the sense of
elegance and power of solving basic mathematical worded problem. Furthermore, it
also addresses the development of mathematical understanding, proficiency, logical
reasoning, analytical thought, computational, and problem-solving abilities. These
skills allow students to respond unusual circumstances by using mathematical
concepts that will lead to correcting their misconceptions and to solve problems
effectively. Students will have access in identifying misconceptions and learn to use
correct mathematical knowledge. Similarly, it encourages teachers/ educators to use
Metric Conversion applying in real life to help students become interested, related,
self-motivated, and effective learners. It does so by encouraging students to engage
in inquiry and active involvement in challenging and engaging activities.

III. GENERAL OBJECTIVES

The overall objective of this program is to provide teachers with materials that allow
them to accurately assess and identify the level of mathematical skills of Laboratory
High School Grade 7 students, particularly in computational and problem-solving
skills, in order to administer effective and appropriate materials to correct the
misconceptions that leads to errors as from the test results and from the data
obtained from the interview (Misconceptions and errors are shown on the above
figures and categorized from different themes accordingly). Students could trust the
well-researched program, which had the overall impact of assisting them in achieving
mathematical competency in some. Students' performance would be tracked daily
via a functional record-keeping procedure, which would rather lessen or eliminate
misconceptions and errors on the said topic.

IV. TARGET BENEFICIARIES:

The researchers aimed to lessen, eliminate, and correct the students'
misconceptions in order to improve their mathematical exam scores, grades, and
student participation in learning; hence the program's expected benefactors are
Grade 7 students at Laboratory High School.
