Figure 1
Figure 1 shows the conceptual framework for this study aims that lifelong learning can improve students’
academic performance, because it can develop a love of learning, and can be more motivated to succeed
in their studies. Differentiated instruction and lifelong learning will be the independent variable, while
academic performance improvement and self-esteem will be the dependent variable. The intervening
variables considered in this study include sex, years of teaching experience, and assigned grade level.

Additionally, the study will use a mixed-method approach, including both qualitative and quantitative
data, to ensure an overall result on how to address the learning gaps of students in intermediate level in
WCES, Dumaguete City.

The results of this study will provide essential insights into the relationship between differentiated
instruction and academic performance and academic performance improvement, and it will help
students to improve their performance and gain more knowledge. The findings can inform interventions
and strategies to address the learning gaps of students in intermediate level in WCES, Dumaguete City.

Interpretation of the Conceptual Framework

In this framework, we illustrate how we will approach this study. This study will be focused on the
teachers themselves and how they are addressing learning of students, specifically in intermediate levels
in WCES. Variables that may affect a teacher’s capability to implement intervention activities will be
gathered. These can years of teaching experience, and assigned grade level for the teacher, which are
the intervening variables of the study.
