Abstract:
The utmost objective of teaching at any level of instruction is tornprepare the learner in acquiring crucial skills for application in real-life situations.rnIn the teaching and learning environment, lesson comprehension could dependrnlargely on instructional stratagems (Gill, 2020). This study aimed at improving thernability of learners to solve problems involving stoichiometry, using thernCollaborative and Problem-Based Learning Package. Senior high schoolrnchemistry students in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematicsrn(STEM), of the school year 2018-2019 of Cervantes National High School werernthe respondents of the research. Specifically, the researcher used the truernexperimental two-group design. A mean difference of 10.84 for the experimentalrngroup revealed a greater improvement compared to the mean difference of therncontrol group equal to 8.14. Moreover, the t-test result showed a significantrndifference in the post-test scores of the control and experimental group. Thernfindings implied that the strategy applied improved the performance of students.rnThus, the researcher recommends the use of the learning package on subjectsrninvolving number manipulations and calculations as it showed a constructivernimpact on the aptitude of learners in dealing with stoichiometry.
