Abstract

This research determined the effects of Biology YouTube videos with focus questions on the concept understanding and media-literacy skills of students aged fifteen in the topic areas of Human Digestion, Heredity, Biodiversity and Interactions. A quasi-experimental research design using pretest-posttest was utilized. Students were divided into two randomly selected groups: experimental and control. Results revealed that Biology YouTube videos with focus questions (M = 10.68 ± 2.93) were as good as conventional teaching in enhancing student conceptual understanding (M = 10.69 ± 2.94) of Biology topics (p = .496). The study also showed that the strategy also developed media-literacy skills of the students (p = .000). Furthermore, it was found that conceptual understanding positively and significantly influenced media-literacy skills of students (r = .459; p = .003) and vice-versa (r = .459; p = .003). It is recommended that the strategy introduced in this study be used in facilitating media literacy in other allied science subjects, in other subjects, and in the teaching of media-literacy education to educators and students of different year levels. Keywords: biology youtube videos with focus questions, concept understanding, media-literacy skills. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpmipa/v21i1.pp01-11

Abstract

This study examined the effects of Metacognitive Analogy Instruction (MAI) on the students’ reflective thinking skills in Biology at the secondary level. A two-group pretest-posttest quasi experimental design was used to teach the control group using Non- Metacognitive Analogy Instruction (NMAI) which includes traditional way of teaching like lecture discussions, while the experimental group was taught using the Metacognitive Analogy Instruction. Results showed that students exposed to MAI improved better (M= 11.30) than those exposed to NMAI on the Habitual Action dimension (M= 10.09) of reflective thinking (p= 0.001) but the two groups had comparable performance (p= 0.42; 0.18; 0.09; & 0.10) on the Understanding (M= 14.40), Reflection (M= 12.47), and Critical Reflection dimensions (M= 12.73). The improvement of the MAI group in their overall reflective thinking skills scores particularly in the Habitual Action dimension could be attributed to the use of metacognitive analogies as part of the class instruction which required a considerable amount of focus and thinking. Hence, it is recommended that MAI be used for classroom instruction, curricular and instructional development, and teacher trainings to improve reflective thinking skills among students. Keywords: metacognition, metacognitive analogy, reflective thinking.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpmipa/v21i1.pp12-21
