Abstract:
This design research aimed to determine the level of perceived teaching readiness, teaching difficulties, and performance assessment practices of the General Mathematics teachers. Results of these were made as bases in producing performance task modules which hope to broaden the range of tasks used by the teachers in assessing the students’ mathematical knowledge and skills. The three researcher-made instruments namely, Teaching Readiness Questionnaire, Teaching Difficulties Questionnaire, and Performance Task Assessment Questionnaire were the data sources. Adapted evaluation tools were used by the students, curriculum expert, teacher and observer to evaluate the developed performance task module. Statistical tools such as frequency, rank, mean, and standard deviation for descriptive statistics and Pearson’s r for inferential statistics were used to treat and analyze the data. All inferential statistics were set at .05 level of significance. Results showed that the General Mathematics teachers have “high” level of perceived teaching readiness, “low” level of perceived teaching difficulty, and “very satisfactory” performance assessment practices. The study also revealed the fourteen learning competencies which were considered difficult to teach by the General Mathematics teachers. Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement and Evaluate (ADDIE) model was considered in coming up with the first module on Functions and their Graphs and the second module on Business Mathematics and Logic which were given “very high” acceptability rating by the set of evaluators and “outstanding” rating by the students. It is recommended that the developed performance task modules be fully utilized by the General Mathematics teachers in order to serve their purpose.
