Abstract: Public school teachers have low research competencies, which contributes to poor action research production. Furthermore, few studies have been conducted to improve the action research competencies of public school teachers in the Philippines. As a result, this study improved the action research competencies of public school teachers through online research training, including research templates, coaching, and mentoring sessions. A practical action research method was used, with sixty-four public school teachers freely participating in and completing a five-day training program. Action research competencies were assessed before and after training using a validated questionnaire developed by field specialists, and semi-structured interviews were performed to elicit feedback. Statistical analyses such as median, interquartile range, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and rank biserial were performed using Jamovi (v 2.4.14), while interview transcripts were analyzed thematically. The findings revealed that participants' action research competencies improved, as evidenced by a statistical difference between before and after participating in the online research training. However, suggestions were made, including extra writing time for peer review exercises, face-to-face training with more examples of each section of research articles, and a longer proposal presentation period. As a result, twelve action research proposals were presented to their supervisors for feedback. The study was conducted in one location and focused solely on public school teachers. Therefore, DepEd authorities may continue to improve public school teachers' action research competencies through online or in-person research training to generate more action research addressing educational problems in the classroom.

Research article: Enhancing students’ academic performance by making the mathematics learning experience meaningful through
differentiated instruction

Abstract: Despite the great effort of mathematics teachers, many students felt that the mathematics experience needed to be more meaningful. So, differentiated instruction (DI) was implemented for two months to promote meaningful learning experiences. DI is a philosophy that caters to student diversity by providing various learning opportunities. This study was practical action research following the plan-do-study-act model aiming to enhance students’ mathematical academic performance. The participants, composed of two hundred fifty-two grade 11 students from
the academic track, voluntarily participated. Data collection tools such as test material, questionnaires, and interview guides were used and validated by experts. Test scores, responses from questionnaires, and interviews were considered evidence of meaningful learning experience. Quantitative data are analyzed statistically using median, inter-quartile range, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, and rank biserial, while thematic analysis was used for qualitative data. Findings revealed that DI strategies enhance the student’s academic performance in examinations. Before DI, students were less engaged in math activities, could not connect prior knowledge to the new lesson, and treated math as a complex subject. However, it turned up during the DI implementation. DI made the learning experience meaningful by connecting prior knowledge with new learning and applying it in real-life situations. DI in mathematics classes improved the student’s academic performance through a meaningful learning experience catering to student diversity. Making an enjoyable learning experience while focusing on concept development guaranteed the effectiveness of DI strategies like open questions, parallel tasks, and technology integration.
