Integrated Science and Mathematics Program (ISMP) for Secondary Schools in Eastern Visayas: A Model
Keywords:
Integrated, Science, Mathematics, Secondary School, Eastern VisayasAbstract
The study attempted to analyse the existing Science I and Mathematics Iprograms in the secondary curriculum of national high schools in Eastern Visayas withan end of developing a model for the integration of Science I and Mathematics I intoone subject. The descriptive-developmental research design was used in this study. Thestudy sample involved 23 science supervisors, head teachers and master teachers, 160secondary school teachers in science, 19 mathematics supervisors, head teachers andmaster teachers, and 149 secondary school teachers in mathematics comprising a total of 341. As to the relationship of perceptions among science supervisors/classroomteachers and mathematics supervisors/classroom teachers, mathematics supervisors, while science teacher’s perceived higher integration than their mathematics counterpart. The achievement level of secondary students in Science I is significantly related to theirachievement level in Mathematics I for SY 1995-1996. Their achievement levels in thetwo subjects, however, are not significantly related for SY 1996-1997 and SY 1997-1998.
