Abstract
This research determines the effects of the Heuristic method on students' performance in Mathematics 7 of a public national high school in the Philippines, school year 2022-2023. The quasi-experimental method used two sets of questionnaires (standardized Attitudes Towards Mathematics Inventory and standardized Algebra Test). The data were treated using frequency, mean, standard deviation, Chi-square test of independence, and paired t-test. The study revealed that student’s profiles (age, gender, final grade in Grade 6 Math) do not have significant relationships with their level of mathematical attitudes and academic performance. However, a significant increase in test scores between the pretest and post-test results in a significant difference between the mean gained of both groups. Thus, teaching strategies could encourage students to increase their academic performance. It was concluded that the Heuristic teaching model helps students develop better mathematics learning. The researchers strongly recommend searching for more learning methods that could help elevate the learners' academic performance.
