Abstract

Fish cage construction competency in Grade 9 constitutes an essential prerequisite for Grade 10 promotion and TESDA certification for Aquaculture NC II; however, students consistently demonstrate deficient practical skills.

A quasi-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was used to measure practical skill gains, supported by thematic analysis of interviews with six purposively selected participants. The assessment rubric, validated through expert judgment using Aiken's V index (above 0.80) and an excellent inter-rater reliability of 0.85 (95% CI: 0.72–0.93, p
