Risaliksik: Development of Online Research Library in Rizal National Science High School Community

Discipline: Education

Abstract:

RISALIKSIK is an online research library developed from the platform carrd.co for the students and teachers of the Rizal National Science High School (RNSHS) to organize and provide access to academic resources for research writing. The website was made online to be accessible to students given the current pandemic situation. RISALIKSIK was sub-divided into three research areas, in which the RNSHS focuses on, namely: Life Sciences, Applied Sciences, and Descriptive Studies. The sample research manuscripts were gathered from Junior High School and Senior High School students. The website was evaluated by students, teachers, and ICT experts with corresponding factors. Convenience, reliability, and accuracy were evaluated by student and teacher respondents with respective overall mean values of 4.73 and 4.65 which interpreted as Highly Acceptable. Navigation, accessibility, security, and design were the factors evaluated by ICT experts with respective mean values of 4.86, 4.72, 4.30, and 4.64 which all interpreted as Highly Acceptable. The study concluded RISALIKSIK as an acceptable website for the community since there is no significant difference between the perceptions of student and teacher respondents in terms of the convenience, reliability, and accuracy factors.
