Abstract

Evolution is a foundational concept in biology, yet it remains challenging for learners and teachers alike. This study conducted a descriptive convergent mixed-methods needs assessment to examine instructional and learning needs in evolution education from the perspectives of students, teachers, and administrators. A total of 50 participants (35 students, 10 teachers, and 5 administrators) from a public senior high school completed researcher-developed questionnaires containing Likert-scale and open-ended items. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative responses underwent thematic analysis, with integration occurring at interpretation. Findings indicate that students possess moderate conceptual understanding but struggle with abstract processes such as natural selection, long-term species change, and evidence interpretation, alongside gaps in science process skills. Teachers report difficulties addressing misconceptions, integrating inquiry-based practices, and accessing contextualized instructional materials. Administrators emphasize the need for laboratory resources, curriculum-aligned materials, and sustained professional development. Overall, results highlight that strengthening evolution education requires coordinated strategies that integrate structured science process skills, targeted teacher training, and institutional support systems. The study provides a multi-stakeholder framework to guide evidence-based instructional and systemic improvement in evolution education.

Abstract

Despite the availability of various instructional resources, teaching abstract biological concepts like the human digestive system remains a challenge for elementary learners due to their developmental stage and the limitations of traditional textbooks. In response, this study aimed to develop and validate the 7Es Learning Pocket (LeaP), an innovative, portable instructional material anchored in the constructivist approach and structured around the 7Es instructional model—elicit, engage, explore, explain, elaborate, evaluate, and extend. The study adopted the 4D model (define, design, develop, and disseminate) and engaged 42 grade 6 students from a public elementary school, along with expert science teachers for validation. During the development phase, qualitative feedback from learners and expert validators guided iterative refinements of the LeaP, with experts rating it “very satisfactory” in content, format, organization, and information accuracy. Quantitative evaluation included paired samples t-test comparing pretest and posttest scores of 42 learners, revealing significant improvement from a mean of 7.12 to 16.79 (t=18.36, p0.001). Additionally, 81-90% of learners demonstrated “very satisfactory” procedural knowledge across all 7Es activities. Learner perception data further affirmed high satisfaction, engagement, and perceived usefulness of the material. These findings confirm that the 7Es LeaP is a well-validated and effective instructional tool that enhances conceptual understanding and promotes active learning in elementary science education.
