Rationale
Education plays a vital role in shaping successful people. It gives us
the opportunity to become a productive member of a civilized society by
acquiring all the necessary skills. We learn how to meet challenges and
overcome obstacles. We learn how to become an integrated personality and
maintain the perpetuation of our culture. People learn basic norms, rules,
regulations, and values of society through education. Moreover, high
quality education enables us to lead a successful life, enhances our
intelligence, skills, knowledge, and brings positive changes in our life.
Education is ladder of success. Every day you step into it. Students
attends class every day for them to get knowledge and ideas about
everything. Anybody should have knowledge about what is in
surroundings, how to utilize it. Making small things to a big one. Create
something out of nothing by means of making strategy on how to do it.
Studying can be a great struggle, especially to those people who are having
hard time in organizing thought and ideas. Students have different ways
to express their ideas it could be through writing, speaking or action.
Sometimes because of many ideas that we propose we are having
difficulties in putting it into action. The ideas we create will be messed up
if it is not properly organized. Students should formulate a great strategy
for them to utilize their abilities. We must learn the different strategies,

learning strategies for us to easily study and to attain our goals easily, it
is like making a plan.
STEM strand will develop the students’ ability to evaluate simple to
complex societal problems and be responsive and active in the formulation
of its solution through the application and integration of scientific,
technological, engineering, and mathematical concepts as it prepares them
to pursue college degrees that focuses on the enigma of the natural world
thereby leading them to become future scientists, technological analysts
and experts, engineers, mathematicians, programmers, and the like.
STEM strand will transform public education to enable students at every
level of schooling to develop knowledge, skills and understanding in STEM
subjects and to apply that learning to shape their world. Students will
experience these subjects and apply their skills in new ways using
collaboration, problem-solving and interdisciplinary thinking.
The study will expound more learning strategies therefore this study will
help learning strategies that suits them. STEM students can change their
study habits, turning it to the most effective and efficient technique for an
easily studying. They can formulate their own strategies too, by just
reading the ideas that the study gives. In addition, the study will be a big
benefit for teachers too for them to know the learning strategies of their
students, the teacher will get the ideas on the study and apply it to

teaching strategy, again the teacher can also formulate another strategy
by reading the given ideas on the study.
The main purpose of this research is to give STEM Students a better
and fortified learning strategies that they can use. The study will provide
relevant ideas and concepts for the students to find the best learning
strategies that will work for them.

CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK:
Most companies naturally want the most innovative and skilled
work talent, and their search for skilled workers is increasingly focused on
the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
The institutions of higher education equipping these students with
workforce skills, however, continue to struggle with several roadblocks.
Although more students are choosing to pursue STEM degrees, many of
these programs have a retention problem. The rigors of freshman year
might be deemed as a “rite of passage,” but many students entering these
STEM programs encounter more than they expected. As these students
grapple with their schedules and stress, they have very little breathing
room to practice and study subjects that truly interest them.
In STEM, many problems often have more than one solution. You can
reach the same answer with multiple different formulas or program a robot
in many ways; this lack of rigidity fuels creativity, but it also opens the
door to more failures — and that’s OK. Experimentation is key to
innovation, so students should be taught to embrace failure — not fear it.
Scope and Delimitation

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
CONCEPTUAL LITERATURE
“Despite great efforts made by an instructor to create as
stimulating classroom environment with varied teaching strategies, the
educator has remarkably little control over the learning”
Instructor is also using teaching strategies so that the educator could
better understand the topic.
“Learning Strategies are the total effort that the students need to
process, understand and adopt the information introduce in learning
teaching processes or in their individual preparation (Tay, 2013). In other
23
University of Luzon
Senior High School
Dagupan City
words, learning strategies can be describe as the whole of the performed
activities of learner to give meaning to information in cognitive and
affective processes (Kadafar, 2013)”
Learning strategies are how the educator can better understand the
subject that is being tackled through his efforts and his own learning
process.
“Second ways of guiding students thinking is to plan assignments
that require students to engaged strategic thinking that is, thaw task in
which students engage are designed to make them use imagery, think of
mnemonics, create a summary or concept map.”
One of the teaching strategies is by giving homework to the educators to
help them improve their creativity by answering it through their own
strategies.
“One half of all students who begin college fail to complete their
degrees, resulting in wasted talents, time and resources. Through used of
mixed methods but primarily qualitative, comparative case studies, this
research reveals ways a 3-week course in study strategies improved the
performance of students placed on academic probation.”
Many educators fail because they have difficulty with their chosen course
so they cannot use their skills that should be of great help to them but
this research study will help them to improve their academic performance.
24
University of Luzon

“Educators have, for how many years noticed that some students
prefer certain methods of leaning more than others. These dispositions,
referred to us learning preferences form a student’s unique learning
strategy.”
Educators have different learning styles so there are those who excel and
there are those who are slow to catch up in class.
RESEARCH LITERATURE
(Ventura et al, 2003) “Motivation is the process of arousing one’s
interest ton action and desired way. For instance, we want our students
to study their lessons well.”
Many educator losses their interest in learning. One of the reasons is the
lack of motivation, so as an instructor he will motivate their students who
have difficulty in studies so they will have interest to acquire their
education.
(Glenn et al 2006) “A teacher who wins students interest With
regards to their studying with certainly inspires each student to strive
harder.”
Students are more to study well not only because of the teacher’s teaching
ability but of likeable qualities of some teachers that deeply touch them.
25
University of Luzon
Senior High School
Dagupan City
There are even remarks form the students expressing their gladness to
have teachers who have outstanding qualities.
(Aldana et al 2009) “Recent studies have shown that students learn
in different ways in that individual tends to adopt distinct learning
preferences. The most common learning preferences of student are based
upon how they learn best using their perceptions; visual, auditory,
kinesthetic. Studies also taught that learning preferences are determine
by personality trait as well as a variety of factors in the educational
environment.”
Educator have different ways to learn in it depend on their own abilities,
skills and personality.
According to the Clifton Press (1999) “If you are taking up study seriously
you need to gain the maximum benefit from your study time. In general,
this will mean three things:
- Creating more free time in which to study
- Making more efficient use of your existing time
- Integrating study with other parts of your life
The topic is in connection with how the students develop on handling time
management. Scheduling and managing time wisely are important for the
students. In this way students can’t miss appointment, deadlines,

activities etc. that will cause complications to both academic and social
life. This guide will help students to organize time like using time to think
and plan with it. Example applying it in both studying in daily lives this
will help a student to make the most of their time and personalized it to fit
in their tastes and activities.

randomly selected from STEM sections therefore their follow up questions
will be all the same.
DATA GATHERING PROCEDURE
Before the researchers formally started their study, the researchers
will give a letter to the Dean of Senior High School. After the letter has
been approved, the researchers will ask 3 person of each STEM 11 sections
about their learning strategies in their academic achievements through
interview with the prepared questionnaires to be answered by
respondents. After gathering information and data, the researchers
encoded it to their study regarding the Learning strategies of STEM 11
students of University of Luzon in their academic achievements.
CHAPTER IV
PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA
Results and Discussion
The presentation, analysis and interpretation of data are presented
on this chapter. The researchers gathered the data through survey and
interview from the students of Senior High School particularly on STEM

Sex Frequency Percentage
Male 7 47%
Female 8 53%
Total 15 100%
As stated on table 1, the questions are given by random male and
female of each STEM Classes.
We conducted some questions for the respondents to answer briefly.
On question no.1 which is “How do you cope up with the subjects you
missed?”
12 out of 15 answered that they ask question from their
classmates/teachers and borrow some notes to copy.
The answer on question no.1 didn’t show an equal percentage.
Partially because 80% of them stated that they ask question from their
31
University of Luzon
Senior High School
Dagupan City
classmates and borrow some notes to copy. Majority of the respondents
stated the same answer. 12 out of 15 stated that they would study at home
then if they missed some quiz, they immediately ask for a special quiz to
the teacher. It’s their first thought of asking their classmates because they
are the most reliable person to talk about that subject. It’s more efficient
for them to just ask their classmates for notes than feel shy for asking the
teacher.
On question no. 2 which is “What/Who is your motivation in attaining
high grades?”
1 of the 15 respondents said; “I do it for myself. Getting a high grade makes
me feel confident and proud.”
Then the others answered that is their Parents who motivates them the
most.
The answers to question number 2 are as follows:
The second question gives recognition to the foundation that
inspires students to attain their high grades. The first respondent proudly
said that He do it for himself and getting a high grade makes him feel
confident and proud. His statement truly indicates the confidence and
pride he gained while attaining his academic achievements. While others
said It was their Parent/s who motivates them the most, “and also G!

(God)“, one of the other respondents added. 93% of respondents stated
with the same answer. This result indicates that the parents and/or
guardians of most STEM 11 students stands as their best inspiration for
their studies.
On question no. 3 which is “Do you have any time management you follow?
Yes or No, and Why?”
8 out 15 respondents chose “YES”; 5 out of 8 respondents who chose YES
said that if they have time management, they still have time for other
activities in every aspect of their life. While the remaining 3 stated that it
is more important for them to finish their works on time.
7 out of 15 respondents chose “NO”.
The 1st respondent stated “None, because I’m having a hard time following
some time management rules.
The 2nd respondent stated, “I do not have any time management that I
follow because I believe time management doesn’t help at all in my study,
and it doesn’t change anything at all.”
The 3rd respondent stated, “I’m usually lazy and rarely gets productive but
if I do, I finish all my commitments and advance study.”
and takedown notes.”
33

As Time Management is one of the best keys for a good learning
strategy, the third question indicates the students if they follow any time
frame for works and other activities. 8 out of 15 respondents chose YES;
in which 5 of them stated that if they have time management, there will
still have time for other activities in every aspect of their life. 3 out of them
stated that it is more important for them to finish their works on time than
other things.
On the other hand, 7 out of 15 respondents chose NO which means they
don’t have any means of time management. The 1st respondent who chose
NO stated that they are having a hard time following it. In which, this
statement indicates the student tend to have more time with other things
than prioritize studying. The 2nd respondent on the other hand believes
that Time Management doesn’t help anything in his study. This student
might prefer studying whenever he wants for which it is the best method
for him to review. The 3rd respondent has nothing to follow for the
respondent said she is usually lazy and rarely gets productive. The result
in this question is partially equal with 53% of respondents who chose YES
and 47% of the respondents chose NO. It indicates a difference on when
they do their studies.
34
University of Luzon

On question no. 4 which is “What recommendation can you give about
your learning strategies that work to you the most?”
1 out of 15 respondents said that he focuses on the harder ones first. After
that, you can start on the minor ones.
2 of the respondents said that you should have proper time management
and to-do lists.
2 out of 15 respondents said that they don’t stress themselves.
3 out of 15 respondents stated that they wake up early in the morning or
they eat while reviewing their lessons.
3 out of 15 respondents said that advance reading is their key for an
effective learning strategy.
1 of the respondents said “Know what type of learner you are and the
compatible learning style. I know I am a visual learner so it would be
effective for me if I make use of charts, colors, bullets, etc.
3 out of 15 respondents said that “Listen very carefully during discussion
and takedown notes.”
The advice of every achiever is a thing where other students could
learn with.
35
University of Luzon

We asked our 15 respondents on what learning strategies that
works for them the most which they can recommend for the others. Almost
every respondent gave different learning strategies. 1 out of 15
respondents advised that you should focus on the harder to study ones
then take the easiest to learn after. Another 1 respondent out of 15 advised
that you should know what kind of learner you are, she also added that
she is a visual learner. Visual learning is a style in which a learner utilizes
graphs, charts, maps and diagrams to learn, review or to study. 2 out of
15 respondents stated that you should have a proper and balanced time
management. Another 2 respondents out 15 advised that you should not
stress yourself. “Just relax and believe in yourself that you will do it”. While
3 out of 15 respondents recommended to do an advance reading. “Your
future self will thank you. Also, every night review your notes” one of them
added. And the remaining 3 out of 15 respondents advised that it is best
to Eat sweet foods while studying, “Don’t feel pressured while studying,
have a break in between subjects.” One of them also added. The three
responded that it is also best for the brain if you will study early in the
morning for the brain is not yet exhausted. The respondents gave a
different learning strategy which indicates discipline for them to attain
their High Grades.

The data gathered in this study shows that some of the respondents in
every STEM 11 sections have the same learning strategies while others
have a unique one. Every learning strategies of the respondents serves as
their tactics to easily cope up with the lessons they are encountering.
These can also help other students who’s having trouble in their study.

and as a tips. The methodology of this research was that of a descriptive
research design. It cannot conclusively as certain answer to WHERE but
provide answers to the questions WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHY and HOW
associated with our research topic. Four research questions guided the
study:
1. How do you cope up with the subjects you missed?

There are 3 randomly selected students in each of every 5 sections of STEM
Academic track. University of Luzon Stem 11 students were given the
instrument to share their ideas, viewpoints and recommendations. The
participation wasn't really forced. The 15 University of Luzon respondents
completely answered the questionnaires based on what they are doing and
to what they really know. In reviewing the results of the study, we observed
that few of the respondents have their same learning strategies that works
on them most. We all know that ideas, thoughts and viewpoints are
different, therefore, the respondents had justified their answers briefly and
truthfully.

complex societal problems and be responsive and active in the formulation

of its solution through the application and integration of scientific,

technological, engineering, and mathematical concepts as it prepares them

thereby leading them to become future scientists, technological analysts

and experts, engineers, mathematicians, programmers, and the like.

STEM strand will transform public education to enable students at every

level of schooling to develop knowledge, skills and understanding in STEM

collaboration, problem-solving and interdisciplinary thinking.
