ABSTRACT

Modular distance learning is a new learning delivery modality implemented by most public schools in the Philippines. However, as seen on the summative test result for the first grading period, students struggled in Grade 7 Mathematics using the self-learning modules. Hence, mathematics concepts were hard to understand and not explained well in the module. To address the problem, the teacher made video lessons and uploaded them to the YouTube channel Direct to the Point by DM as interventions. A YouTube channel as an avenue to upload educational videos has been used before the pandemic. This platform’s advent can be used in delivering mathematics interventions since the students preferred to watch videos. This study aimed to assess the Mathematics video lessons via a YouTube channel for modular distance learning. This was a practical action research design following the PDSA model that utilized the participants’ pretest and the posttest scores. Also, open-ended surveys and interviews were conducted to elicit qualitative data to support the quantitative findings. The result reveals that video lessons help the students understand the mathematics concepts complementing lessons on the modules. Moreover, they enjoyed watching the teacher-made videos since they see the teacher explaining the lesson. However, the students suggested having regular posting of videos with more examples and explanations having clear and loud voice of the teacher.
