Norkhair A. Ibrahim

Discipline: Education

 

Abstract:

This study delved into the experiences of Senior High School students in the Philippines with Practical Research (PR). While PR is a vital curriculum component designed to cultivate research skills, students often find it challenging. This research explored these challenges, their impact on the student experience, and the perceived learning opportunities within PR. By gaining a deeper understanding of the student perspective, the study aims to refine teaching strategies and maximize the subject's value within the curriculum.
