TRANSLATED LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEETS (TRANSLAS) ON TEACHING GRADE-11 COOKERY CONCEPTS

Abstract

Modules and activity sheets were essential learning materials in strengthening quality education in the modular distance learning modality amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The study was conducted to determine the validity and efficiency of the developed Translated Learning Activity Sheet (TransLAS) as a learning material in teaching Grade-11 Cookery in the competency: preparation of various salads and dressings. The analysis sought to investigate the outcomes of the assessment rating of the prepared translated learning activity sheets and the impact of implementation. Teacher experts, student experts, and regular students from secondary schools in Surigao Del Sur Division were the study subjects. The study's tool was the DepEd standard evaluation rating tool for printed materials obtained from the Surigao del Sur Division Learners Resource Management and Development Office, the developed translated learning activity sheets, and the pretest and posttest questionnaires adopted from Project PPE (Portfolio Predicate on Exemplar) on Cookery 11. A developmental-quasi experimental design was used in this study. Using the DepEd standard evaluation rating tool for printed materials, the developed TransLAS in Teaching Cookery – 11 were rated very satisfactory as to educational soundness. Likewise, as to its extent of validity, it was rated as strongly agree. Analyses found that students who utilized the translated learning activity sheets scored significantly better than those who used the learning activity sheets with no translation on the posttest. The study concluded that the developed translated learning activity sheet has a positive learning outcome in learners' competency mastery. Likewise, it is accepted and recommended for learning purposes as experts evaluate educational soundness and extent of validity.
