520 _a ABSTRACT MEDRANO, ERICK L. Mariano Marcos State University. May 2021. INFOGRAPHICS IN GUIDED DISCOVERY LESSONS FOR GRADE 6 SCIENCE. Major Adviser: Dr. Cesario Y. Pacis The study generally aimed to develop Infographics in Guided Discovery Lessons (IGDL) in Grade 6 Science. Specifically, it investigated the learning competencies in Science 6 that can be best taught using infographics as perceived by teachers. Also, it determined the effectiveness of the IGDL in improving the performance in Science among the Grade 6 learners. The study used the descriptive research design employing the Research and Development (R&D) methodology. It surveyed 162 Grade 6 Science teachers from the Schools Division of Ilocos Norte on the essential competencies in Science using Needs Assessment Survey. The developed Infographics in Guided Discovery Lessons were validated by a panel of experts and tried out to the Grade 6 pupils of San Nicolas Elementary School. A researcher-made pretest and posttest were used to determine the effectiveness of the infographics. Results show that 14 out of 30 (46.67%) of the Grade 6 Science learning competencies were considered to be best taught using infographics as perceived by the teachers. With this result, IGDL was developed to improve the Grade 6 learners' performance in Science. The IGDL used graphics and text to achieve various instructional objectives and create a rich learning environment for both teachers and learners. The Department of Education-Learning Resource Management and Development System Evaluation Tool for Print and Poster was utilized to determine the content validity of the IGDL. In terms of content, instructional and technical qualities, the IGDL was evaluated as valid. The over-all mean implies that developed Infographics in Guided Discovery Lessons can be utilized in the acquisition of Science concepts. Also, it is valid in improving learners' performance in Grade 6 Science. The tryout result showed that the level of performance of Grade 6 learners improved from needs improvement level to a very satisfactory level. The t-test result revealed a significant difference between the level of performance of the Grade 6 learners in their pretest and posttest mean scores. Thus, the IGDL improved the students' performance. Hence, it can be used as instructional materials in teaching concepts in Grade 6 Science.
