Development of Least Learned Competencies-Based Intervention Materials for Elementary

This study aimed to develop intervention materials (IMs) for 12 elementary schools in Surigao City Division. Specifically, it sought to determine the least learned competencies in every elementary grade level, evaluate the quality of IMs which was done by both teachers and experts. The study employed descriptive-developmental research design. Data were collated, tallied, analyzed and interpreted using appropriate statistical treatments, to include descriptive, nonparametric and inferential analyses. Mean Frequency Count and Percentage distribution were used to determine the least learned competencies. Mean and Standard Deviation were utilized for evaluation of the material by the teachers and experts. Mann-Whitney U Test was utilized to determine the significant difference on the material’s quality. The materials were qualitatively described as very satisfactory. There is no significant difference on presentation and organization and accuracy and up-to-datedness/timeliness. However, there is a significant difference in terms of content and format with the p-value less than 0.05. The Intervention material could be utilized to improve learning competencies of elementary students and a quasi- experimental study to investigate the effectiveness of the developed material is highly recommended.
