Abstract:
This study was conducted to determine the effects of task-based learningrn(TBL) approach on the competence and attitude towards Chemistry of Grade 12rnSTEM students at the Bayambang National High School, Bayambang, Pangasinanrnduring the First Semester of School Year 2019-2020. Two comparable regularrnclasses of Grade 12 STEM were the subjects of the study. One group was exposedrnto traditional approach and the other to task-based learning approach.rnThe study used the experimental method of research with the AchievementrnTest and Chemistry Attitude Questionnaire as the tools in data gathering whichrnwere content validated. Accordingly, frequency counts, percentages, averagernweighted mean and t-tests were utilized in the treatment of data.rnThe findings reveal that students exposed to the traditional approach andrnTBL approach has significantly improved pretest and posttest performances.rnHowever, students exposed to the TBL approach performed significantly betterrnthan those in the traditional approach. Moreover, the students exposed to therntraditional approach and TBL approach has significant change in their attitudernbefore and after the experiment. However, the students exposed to the TBLrnapproach developed a significantly better attitude towards Chemistry than those inrnthe traditional approach.
