Development of Contextualized Strategic Intervention Materials for Grade-8 Physics

During pandemic, it is a great challenge to educators to elevate and upgrade the school’s performance in the Philippines under Science education. The researcher, therefore, was prompted to develop Contextualized Strategic Intervention Materials as an innovative teaching practice in distance learning using the modular method of teaching.  This study was focused in Physics for Grade 8 students at Rizal National High School. A developmental research method is the design in which this study is anchored. Moreover, the study utilized the ADDIE Model in the development and evaluation of the CSIM. The layout of the CSIM was also designed in this phase where it was made attractive using real-life pictures or animated images to activate the learner’s interests to the topic. The basic parts of the CSIM are title card, guide card, activity card, assessment card, enrichment card, reference card, and answer card. There were six CSIM’s developed.
