Abstract

This study aimed to develop and validate a Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) to aid difficulties on least learned competencies of Grade 7 students during distance learning in the subject Mathematics, specifically the branch Algebra. The least learned competencies revealed in Mathematics Second Summative Test on school years 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 of Victoria National High School (VNHS) served as the basis in developing Strategic Intervention Materials (SIM). The study sought to answer the following objectives: 1. To develop a Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) in aiding difficulties on the least learned competencies of Grade 7 learners in Algebra; 2. To validate the Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) in Algebra - Mathematics 7 by: a. Mathematics Specialists in terms of objectives, content, format and layout, presentation, and instructional characteristics; and b. Users. 3. To draw an implication in teaching Mathematics. The validation of the SIMs was done by 5 Mathematics Specialists, results accumulated a mean of 4.9 from different indicators which has an equivalent description of “Very Evident†. After validating the material, it was tested among selected Grade 7 students. Results from the pretest and posttest revealed that the use of Strategic Intervention Material (SIM) and traditional teaching method were both effective in teaching and remediation. However, comparing the results on posttest, the use of SIM in teaching least learned competencies was more effective than the traditional teaching method. The SIM is useful to aid the difficulties in Algebra and at the same time to improve the performance of the students. Based on the findings of this study, the researcher recommended the use of SIM as teaching and intervention tool since it is effective in aiding difficulties on least learned competencies and improving the skills of the students in Algebra. Teachers should be encouraged to create more SIM in enhancing the mastery of students not only in Mathematics, but also in other subject areas.
