NARRATIVE REPORT
SLAC on Conducting Classroom Based Action Research
Day One (June 20, 2018)

The school conducted a two-day SLAC Session on Conducting Classroom-Based Action

Research on June 20 and 29, 2018. This was held at the ICT Room and attended by all teaching
personnel of MVES. This seminar generally aimed to enhance the basic skills of teachers in
conducting action research in their respective classroom.

On the first day, the seminar started with the presentation of Ma’am Elsa Bumatay about the
importance of conducting action research as well as the difference of action research with the other
type of research. This was followed by Sir Benjie Manila who presented the different methods and
types of research. He focused his discussion on the experimental type of research. Then, Sir Jonathan
Escaro presented the parts of an action research proposal. He also gave some tips on how to write
each part of an action research proposal.

A workshop immediately followed after the presentation of topics. Participants were asked to
identify the problems that they encounter in their classroom and think of a possible solution or
intervention to solve it. During the presentation of outputs, Sir Benjie Manila approved some
problems that could possibly be conducted as either action research or applied research.

Participants with approved title were asked to write their research proposal from June 21 to
28. For those whose problems/topics for research were not approved, they were asked to incorporate
the suggestions and come up with a possible topic for action research or applied research. Likewise,
they have to write their proposals within the given period.

 APPROVED TOPICS FOR RESEARCH

Action Research Proposal (Grade 1)

Title:

Improving Reading Skills of Select Grade 1 Pupils through Marungko Approach

Statement of the Problem:

This action research aims to improve the reading skills of select grade 1 pupils in Mt. View
Elementary School using the Marungko Approach.

Specifically, it seeks answers to the following questions:

1. What is the level of reading skills of grade 1 pupils before the study?

2. What is the level of reading skills of grade 1 pupils after the study?

3. Is there a significant difference between the level of reading skills of grade 1 pupils before and
after the study?

Hypothesis:

There is no significant difference between the level of reading skills of grade 1 pupils before and
after the study

Method:

Simple Experimental Design, particularly the One-Group Pre-test Posttest Design

Sampling Technique:

Purposive Sampling (Pupils who will fall under frustration and non-reader category will be the
participants for this study)

Statistical Treatment/Data Analysis:

Dependent Samples T-test will be used to compare the pretest and posttest scores of grade 1 pupils.
Action Research Proposal (Grade 4)

Title:

Assistive Technology: Its Effectiveness in Improving the Reading Comprehension Skills of Grade 4
Pupils in Mt. View Elementary School

Statement of the Problem:

This action research aims to improve the reading comprehension skills of select Grade 4 pupils in Mt.
View Elementary School

Specifically, it seeks answers to the following questions:

1. What is the level of reading comprehension skills of grade 4 pupils before the study?

2. What is the level of reading comprehension skills of grade 4 pupils after the study?

3. Is there a significant difference between the level of reading comprehension skills of grade 4
pupils before and after the study?

Hypothesis:

There is no significant difference between the level of reading comprehension skills of grade 4 pupils
before and after the study

Method:

Simple Experimental Design, particularly the One-Group Pre-test Posttest Design

Sampling Technique:

Purposive Sampling (Pupils who will fall under frustration and non-reader category will be the
participants for this study)

Statistical Treatment/Data Analysis:

Dependent Samples T-test will be used to compare the pretest and posttest scores of grade 4 pupils.
Action Research Proposal (Grade 5)

Title:

Learning by Doing: Improving Computational Skills of Grade 5 Pupils through Measurement of

Concrete Objects

Statement of the Problem:

This action research aims to improve the computational skills of grade 5 pupils through
measurement of concrete objects.

Specifically, it seeks answers to the following questions:

1. What is the level of computational skills of grade 5 pupils before the study?

2. What is the level of computational skills of grade 5 pupils after the study?

3. Is there a significant difference between the level of computational skills of grade 5 pupils before
and after the study?

Hypothesis:

There is no significant difference between the level of computational skills pupils before and after
the study

Method:

Single-Subject Quasi-experimental Research Design. According to Baracerros (2017), this research

design controls treatment and condition applied to just one individual or a group.

Sampling Technique:

The entire population will be used as participants of this study.

Statistical Treatment/Data Analysis:

Dependent Samples T-test will be used to compare the pretest and posttest scores of grade 4 pupils.
Applied Research Proposal (Grade 5)

Title:

Factors Affecting Parents’ Participation of School Activities in Mt. View Elementary School

Statement of the Problem:

This study aims to examine the factors affecting parents’ participation in school activities.

Specifically, it seeks answers to the following questions:

1. What is the profile of the respondents in terms of:

1.1

1.2

1.3

1.4 (so on…..)?

2. How may the factors affecting parents’ participation in school activities be described in terms of:

2.1

2.2

2.3 (so on….)?

3. How may the parents’ participation in school activities be described in terms of:

3.1

3.2

3.3 (so on)?

4. Are there significant differences with the level of participation of parents in school activities when
they are grouped accordingly?

5. Is there significant relationship between the factors and the parents’ participation in school
activities?

5. Which among the factors taken singly or in combination, predict the participation of parents in
school activities?

Hypothesis:

There is no significant relationship between the factors and the parents’ participation in school
activities.

There are no significant differences with the parents’ perception on the factors affecting their
participation in school activities when they are grouped accordingly.

Method:

Descriptive-Correlational Research Design

Sampling Technique:
Sample Size to be determined using Slovin’s Formula

Availability Sampling will be the sampling technique to be used in selecting the participants.
According to Baraceros (2017), it is done by picking out people who are easy to find or locate and
willing to establish contact with the researcher.

Statistical Treatment/Data Analysis:

Frequency, Percentage will be used to describe the profile

Mean will be used to describe the respondents’ perception on the factors as well as their level of
participation in school activities.

Independent Ttest to test the difference of parents’ perception by sex

Dependent Ttest to test difference of more than 2 variables such as age, civil status etc.

Person r Correlation to test relationship

Stepwise Regression Analysis to identify the best predictor of parents’ participation
