CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
Background of the study
In the educational system of the Philippines, Matatag Curriculum
was introduced on August 2023 by the Sarah Z. Duterte, the Vice
President of the Philippines and Secretary of Department of Education.
This curriculum highly focused to the totality of a learner as a human
person while giving importance on the well- being, teacher's support,
relevance, efficiency, and attitude. These concepts were essential based
on the general goal of the curriculum towards restructuring and bolstering
the system of education. The development of creation changes to a
curriculum is multifaceted and tangled with the desires and progressions
of society. Education has a vital role in determining the skills and
knowledge of generations (Estrellado, 2023). These changes are important
for understanding the scope and impact of the ever-changing world and
adapting to the advancement also of the societal, economic, and
technological shifts (Fullan, 20019).
However, the Philippines ranks among the nations with the lowest-scoring
learners in the Programme for International Learner Assessment (PISA) 2018. In
mathematics, less than 20% of learners achieved the required level of proficiency,
while more than 50% exhibited deficient performance. Filipino students performing
below PISA’s lowest level of proficiency possessed more advanced mathematical
knowledge than half of their global counterparts in the same age group, highlighting
the need for improvement in mathematics education. Learners in both public and
private schools exhibited poor performance in mathematics to varying degrees, with
means of 343 and 395, respectively.
Glan-Padidu National High School is still practicing traditional way of teaching
making the students understand the certain topic or subject.
It is with this Contextualized the k to 12 Learner’s Material in Mathematics that
prompted the researchers to determine the effect of Contextualized K to 12 Learner’s
Material to the students in Glan-Padidu National High School.
This chapter presents the related data cited from any difference authors these
taken from books and electronic sources. These materials provided valuable
information for the conceptualization of the framework and enrichment of the
analysis and interpretation of data.
The conceptual paradigm as shown in figure 1 explain the study. The first box
in the left side contain K to 12 learner’s guide which is independent variable. The line
connecting the independent variable assumes the K to 12 Learner’s Material utilized
in Grade 7 section-Lara students of Glan-Padidu National High School and it also
assumes possible effects of the Pre-test and Post-test scores of the students. The
second box in the right side is the effects of K to 12 Learner’s Material
Statement of the Hypothesis
Ho: There is no significant difference between the pre-test and post-test result of
Grade 7 students.
Definitions of terms
The following terms are operationally defined according to how they are used
in this study:
K to 12 – K stands for kindergarten and 12 refers to the succeeding 12 years of
basic education.
Post-test – A test given to students after completion of an instructional program or
segment.
Pre-test – Pre-assessment is a test taken be students before a new unit to find out
what the students need more instructions on and what they may already know.
CHAPTER III
METHODOLOGY
This chapter presents the research design, research locate subject, research
instrument, data gathering procedure and statistical treatment.
Research Design
This study utilized the descriptive design of research to gather data
concerning the contextualized K to 12 Learner’s Material in grade 7 mathematics at
Glan-Padidu National High School, which included questionnaires.
In this study, the researcher used a Descriptive Research. According to
Williams (2019), descriptive research is research design used to examine the
situation involving identification of attributes of a particular phenomenon based on an
observational basis. So, this type of research is used to describe and interpret the
data being studied based on fact that is supported by accurate theories. It means
that descriptive research is related to the condition occured at that time, used one
variable or more and then investigated in fact. Therefore, this study analyzed the
student’s difficulties in reading report text and the factors that were caused in report
text.
Research Locale
The study was conducted at Glan-Padidu National High School, Glan
Sarangani Province. The school is located at the right side of National Highway
going to Poblacion, Glan, Sarangani Province. This school is 250 meters away from
the National Highway.
Research Subject
The research study involved 30 grade 7 students who were enrolled at Glan -
Padidu National High School during the School Year 2024 - 2025. There were five
sections in this grade level.
When selecting research subjects, the following guidelines and criteria were
often considered. First, the researcher used Random Sampling, which involved
selecting randomly from the target population to ensure that each member had an
equal chance of being included. It helped in reducing bias and obtaining a
representative sample. Second, informed consent was obtained. The respondents
had to be fully informed about the purpose, procedures, risks, and benefits of the
research before they agreed to participate. The purpose of informed consent was to
protect the rights and welfare of research respondents by ensuring that they were
agreeing to and that they had the opportunity to make an informed decision about
whether or not to participate. Lastly, confidentiality and anonymity were maintained
to ensure that respondents' identities and responses were kept confidential.
Anonymity meant that respondents could not be identified at all, while confidentiality
meant that their identities were protected and only accessible to authorized
researchers. This encouraged honest and open responses.
Research instrument
The instruments that were used in this study were a teacher-made test. A
semi-detailed lesson plan was used as a tool in contextualizing the K to 12 Learner's
Material for Grade 7 mathematics. The instrument was administered for the pre-test
and post-test. It contained 20 items that were validated with the help of the research
adviser.
Statistical Treatment
The researchers used the t - test to determine the significant
difference between the pretest and the post - test scores of Grade 7
students.
CHAPTER IV
This chapter deals with presentation, analysis, and interpretation of the data
gathered in this study. The various results are presented in the succeeding tables
with corresponding discussions and explanations. It also answers specific problems
stated in the previous chapter.
Table 1
Table 1. Shows the pre-test results of the Grade 7 Mathematics. The highest score
is 8 and the lowest score is 0. The grade 7 score results are low as indicated by the
mean 4.17. this further implies that majority of the respondents got a low score.

Table 3.
The student’s Mean Pre-test and Post-test scores and the computed t-value of
the Grade 7 Mathematics.
Table 3. The significance between the Pre-test and Post-test of the Grade 7
Mathematics after introducing the Contextualized Learner’s Material in teaching
measurements. The P-value was obtained 0.00. The scores of the Grade 7
Mathematics significantly improved after their exposure of the Contextualized K to 12
Learner’s Material.
This chapter presents the summary of the study, findings, conclusions and
some suggestions.
Summary
The sources of data are from the Pre-test and Post-test result of Grade 7
students.
Based on the results, this study revealed the following summary of the
findings:
The pre-test results of Grade 7 students in Mathematics are low as justified by
the value of mean which is 4.17.
As indicated by the t-test, the post-test is greater than the pre-test of 2.00.
There is a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test results of
the Grade 7 Mathematics.
Conclusion
Based on the summary of the findings, this study found out that the results of
the post-test are improved. Even the improvements are not high, but still it helps the
students. Thus, the new curriculum, Matatag, used by the teachers is a good
instructional tool in teaching measurement.
Recommendations
Since the curriculum has been changed with Matatag and some content of the
book have been changed, teachers must find ways that their teachings force
could exposed to contextualized K to 12 Learner's Material.
