Abstract
This study aimed to identify and analyze factors that affect students' academic performance in Science 10 in Caybiga High School, Caloocan City in order to formulate the right intervention program based on the findings.
This research was deemed important for the proper recognition of improving the Grade 10 students' academic performance in Science.
The study was limited to the First Periodic Test results in Science as bases for academic performance of students of Caybiga High School, Caloocan City in S.Y. 2016-2017. This research used the descriptive method survey
technique to determine the factors that affect the students' academic performance in Science. The respondents were the Grade 10 students. As a Science teacher, the researcher wanted to find out the relationship between the determinants and the academic performance of the students in Science 10. This would be the basis for formulating an appropriate school intervention program to enhance the students' academic performance in Science.
This study used two types of data gathering instruments. First, the First Quarter test, in Science 10 to determine the academic performance of the respondents in Science. Second, this study adopted the Descriptive Survey Design Methodology. The researcher utilized a survey questionnaire to be answered through a rating scale.
Findings of this study implies that on the average, the students obtained a below passing score because they fail to meet the target 75% average. Perceived determinants such as personal factors, school factors, and environmental factors in reality affect the academic performance of the students. Based on the findings of this study, parents truly affect the performance of their children in school.
It can also be implied that students perform more in the class when they are being recognized and their classrooms are conducive to learning. Included in the implication of this study is that technology can be advantageous to students' learning.
Environmental factors are significantly related to the students' academic performance, while personal and school factors are insignificantly related to the academic performance of students.
The school teaching personnel should find ways to improve the performance of students in their Science subjects specifically critical thinking skills, not only inside the classroom but also include activities that involve parents' participation and cooperation right in their homes such as assignments, take home activities, and projects.
There is also a need to educate parents so they can help improve the academic performance of children. This can be implemented through workshops for parents in order to guide them on how to assist their children with home works and other related activities.
In order to ensure optimal academic performance of students, there should be balance in their personal, school, and environmental activities. There should be challenging programs and projects to realize their full potentials.
Schools should develop and sustain a child friendly environment that promotes a healthy atmosphere for learning.
Intervention programs aiming to improve academic performance of the students in their Science subjects should be carefully crafted like remedial classes, Strategic Intervention Materials (SIM), module writing, mastery testing. and parent-teacher conferences.
