Abstract:

This action research was conducted to improve the mathematical performance of learners while at home amidst this pandemic during the modular printed learning delivery modality through home visitation. This innovation serves as a teaching and learning strategy to enhance learning. Thus, this research aimed to determine the effectiveness of home visitation on learners mathematical performance. The participants of the study were the 13 struggling Grade 6-Cattleya learners of Gines Elementary School School for the S.Y. 2020-2021. Researcher-made learning activity sheets composing four fundamental mathematical operations were utilized in the study during home visitation. The pre-test and post test scores were used to gather the data. Mean and Wilcoxon-signed rank test were employed in the study. The findings revealed that home visitation improved the post test scores of the learners in mathematics. Significant differences existed in the pre-test and post test scores of the learners before and after the intervention. It was concluded that home visitation improved the mathematical performance of the learners. It was recommended to utilize home visitation as strategy in enhancing learners’ mathematical performance especially during this pandemic as we utilized the modular printed learning delivery modality in delivering quality education among our learners.
