Abstract

Education plays a vital role in addressing the current environmental crisis. Integrating ecoliteracy in teacher preparation programs empowers colleges and universities to promote a healthy biosphere by producing pre-service teachers (PSTs) who can develop an ecoliterate student citizenry. Connectedly, ecoliteracy must be taught to PSTs through effective and meaningful learning experiences. Using the research and development (RD) design, this study aimed to develop a teaching packet that incorporates inquiry-based learning (IBL) and science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) education to foster ecoliteracy among PSTs. Focus group discussion (FGD) results revealed an opportunity to craft the teaching packet. Ecoliteracy conceptualizations guided the formulation of the packet’s learning outcomes and topics. Eight (8) evaluators assessed the packet’s preliminary version, which satisfied 74% of the indicators in the adapted evaluation tool. After implementing the packet to 38 PSTs, findings reveal a statistically significant increase in conceptual understanding and ecoliteracy levels. Both PSTs and faculty members share positive perceptions towards the teaching packet, though they also suggested further improvements to the material. Overall, the results document the potential of IB-STEAM in fostering PSTs ecoliteracy, showing how innovative and integrative pedagogies are instrumental for effective ecoliteracy instruction in teacher education.

Abstract

The Philippine basic education continually languishes at the bottom in programme for international student assessment (PISA) and low achievement in national achievement test (NAT) thus the need for creative learning supplementation is a must. This study attempted to use reading as platform to engender science learning thereby hitting two goals in one intervention. Six contextualized science-infused reading materials were developed corresponding to the six topics in grade 7 science and utilizing the analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation (ADDIE) model as the developmental framework. The material passed the department of education criteria in terms of language evaluation and format while the content was evaluated by field experts. The material has an average lexical density of 51.45 and Flesch-Kincaid grade level of 7.80. The pandemic limited the target respondents to 54. Initial results showed that the material can possibly contribute to science learning based on the medium normalized gain. In terms of intrinsic motivation, all areas were rated high indicating that the users are well-motivated in using the reading material. The material also points to its potential to positively impact reading fluency. It is recommended that similar material be developed for all physics content in all levels from grade 3 to grade 10 and possibly be replicated in other science area.
