Abstract
The study determined whether Task Delegation and Completion Checklist (TDCC) promoted students’ active involvement in Science Research Team Project. A mixed-method research design was utilized in this study and a total of 32 Grade 12 STEM students of Trento National High School, S.Y. 2018-2019 served as the respondents. With the use of TDCC in achieving students’ main task, results revealed that there was a high level of involvement and the participation of students is complete, even beyond active participation. This implied that the checklist did not give room for free riders in a team. Hence, it allowed students to be involved through delegated subtasks and valued the sense of completion for the team. The emerged themes in Focus Group Discussion (FGD) on the topics of attributes and benefits gained with the use of TDCC were all positive and useful for the students themselves. Generally, the use of TDCC promoted students’ involvement in Research Teams from whichever group, either belonged to Biology, Chemistry, or Physics. It is recommended that research advisers will consider the use of TDCC for students in research team projects, as well as to teachers handling different learning areas that maximize group works to promote student involvement in a team.<p> </p><p><strong> Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0937/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>
Highlights
This study generally determined whether Task Delegation and Completion Checklist (TDCC) promoted students’ active involvement in a Science Research Project Course
It sought to answer the following questions: 1) What is the level of student involvement in a Science Research Team Project with the use of task delegation and completion checklist?
3) What is the perception of the students in using task delegation and completion checklist in the Science Research Team Project?
Summary
One great factor of such deficiency is the level of involvement of each member within a research team Another was an issue on failing to submit work assignments among students which were mentioned in the study of Cavanaugh et al (2012). Oftentimes, it can be a challenge with the team since it puts an additional duty upon other group members to make up for the absence of exertion among the free riders With such occurrence in a class that works in a team, there is a need in conducting this research. This may give an impact on Grade 12 STEM students in dealing with their group along their scientific research project course. Since Senior High School is still in the piloting stage of implementation, there is a call for research addressing the problems being encountered in the realm of education
