Description
This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of contextualization and localization in teaching science of Grade IV learners. The 30 pupil respondents from Praxevilla Elementary School were divided into two groups. The first group was exposed to contextualized and localized module, while the second group was exposed to contextualized but not localized module. The study utilized the descriptive and experimental methods of research. The questionnaire, modules, and test papers underwent validation by experts to ensure content validity and reliability. The study utilized mean, weighted mean, t-test for dependent data, and Spearman’s rank correlation for the statistical treatment of the data gathered. The study revealed that there is an increase in performance after the pupils were exposed to contextualized and localized modules. There was also significant difference shown between the pretest and posttest performances of the pupils and the posttest performances of the two groups of pupils in favor of those who are exposed to contextualized and localized module. It was also found out that the extent of perception of pupils who are using contextualized and localized modules was very high. There was no significant relationship between the pupils’ perception on the utilization of contextualized and localized module and their posttest performances. However, there was a significant relationship on the perception of pupils exposed to contextualized module and their posttest performances. It concluded that the pupils learn effectively the science concepts using contextualized and localized modules.
