INTRODUCTION

An interactive science notebook (ISN) is an educational tool

designed to help students actively engage with and organize their science

learning. Unlike traditional notebooks, which may primarily serve as a

place for writing and note-taking, an interactive science notebook

incorporates a variety of interactive elements that encourage hands-on

learning and critical thinking.

Typically, an ISN combines traditional note-taking with creative and

analytical activities. This might include:

 Foldables and Pop-Ups: These are three-dimensional elements

that students create and use to organize information in a visually

engaging way.

 Diagrams and Charts: Students can draw and label diagrams,

creating visual representations of scientific concepts.

 Graphic Organizers: These tools help students structure

information and make connections between different ideas.

 2

 Hands-On Activities: Space for recording observations from

experiments or interactive simulations.

The purpose of an ISN is to make science learning more dynamic and

personalized. By actively constructing their notebooks, students can

better understand and retain scientific concepts. It also provides a

valuable reference that they can revisit and add to over time. Overall,

interactive science notebooks foster a deeper engagement with the

subject matter, making science more accessible and enjoyable.

Interactive science notebooks (ISNs) support students' learning

and academic performance by fostering active engagement and reflective

practice. Recent studies have shown that ISNs help students internalize

scientific concepts more effectively through hands-on activities and visual

organization (Ponce, 2022). By integrating interactive elements such as

foldables and graphic organizers, ISNs cater to various learning styles

and encourage students to take ownership of their learning process,

which enhances both comprehension and retention (Smith & Davis,

2021). Additionally, the iterative nature of ISNs, where students

continuously update and review their notes, promotes deeper

understanding and long-term memory (Johnson et al., 2023). This active

learning approach not only improves academic outcomes but also

increases student motivation and engagement in science (Lee, 2023

 3

Background of the Study

The global advancement of technology demands countries to

enhance different aspects of society. Countries have been encouraged to

improve and enhance their educational system to keep up with this fast-

changing state of affairs. Creating a well-established and science-literate

society that can face the challenge of science-based future careers is

ideal for achieving development. However, some countries are struggling

to cope with these changes. In the recent assessment conducted by PISA

2022 ( OECD PISA 2022 Results Factsheet ), Filipino learners aged 15

years old were assessed about their knowledge and skill in mathematics,

reading, and science. The scores show no significant improvement from

the country's performance in 2018, exhibiting low proficiency in the

categories.

The role of teachers is essential in the success of acquiring

knowledge. Bartmann and Bartmann (2023) emphasize the benefit of

teaching with a positive attitude, influencing students to cope with daily

challenges, and motivating and encouraging students to be more

enthusiastic in learning by setting attainable goals. Despite that, being

equipped with different pedagogical approaches that suit the student's

learning style and appropriate use of assessment. The learning facilities

 4

and learning environment that the teacher establishes is also vital to the

student's success in acquiring knowledge (Fajardo et al., 2019).

It is undeniable that note-taking is very useful in the learning

process. The Interactive Science Notebook took some acknowledgment

due to its effects on the learning process. The Learning Accelerator 2021

has enlisted the reasons to utilize Interactive Notebooks and explains why

it is beneficial for students and teachers to use Interactive notebooks.

Unlike regular notebooks, the different sides of the notebooks

serve different purposes. The right side of the notebook contains the

teacher's input that the student wrote, and the left side is for

the students wherein they can illustrate, interpret, and administer

scientific concepts based on their understanding. In that way,

students are expected to extend their knowledge and boost their interest

in learning different science concepts.

The research entitled " Interactive Science Notebook and

Academic Performance of Grade 11 ABM Students in Bestlink College of

the Philippines " aims to identify the significant relationship between the

Interactive Science Notebook and the Academic Performance of Grade

11 ABM students in Bestlink College of the Philippines and to sully

utilize the study and formulate guidelines that help improve the academic
 5

performance of the Grade 11 ABM students in Beslink College of the

Philippines.

Review of Related Literature

This chapter presents the relevant literature studies that the

researchers considered in strengthening the claim and importance of the

present study. This research is primarily focused on the relationship

between Interactive Science Notebook and the Academic Performance of

Grade 11 ABM students at Bestlink College of the Philippines.

Interactive Science Notebook

An Interactive Notebook is an information-processing tool that

provides a framework for students to be independent critical thinkers

(AVID for Higher Education, 2018). It allows students to synthesize their

thoughts and unleash different process skills. Yeşilçelebi Bıyık, B., &

Şenel, E. A. (2019) present a study that identifies the effect of science

notebooks on academic achievement, scientific process skill, and

retention level of primary students. Associating the application of science

notebooks had a factor in developing retention of learning that allows for

storing, recalling, and organizing information in long-term memory. Tutal,

Ö (2023) exhibited results regarding academic achievement and learning

retention on investigating the impact of using Context-Based Learning on

 6

different science courses on educational levels. It showcased results in

educational levels that having personal connections to the learning

process creates good retention of the information.

With an emphasis on developing thinking skills that 21st-century

learners should possess, it is a demand for educators to seek different

pursuits that encourage higher-order thinking skills. Dakang et al. (2021)

recommend the utilization of an Interactive Notebook with a feedback

strategy as they find the capability of an Interactive notebook to enhance

process skill acquisition. Thinking skills are essential in learning as they

enable individuals to process information, learn, reflect, analyze, create,

organize experiences, and apply knowledge. In teaching science, it is

essential to develop Creative and Critical skills. According to Taher

(2022), the Interactive Science Notebook was implicit in developing

creative thinking skills by exposing insights students can construct

knowledge with the help of scaffolded learning. Taher (2022) also stated

that the integration of ISN allows the students to think critically to make

informed decisions and facilitate creative learning.

Possessing mastery of their subject matter and pedagogical

knowledge is more capable of innovatively improvising and flexibly

altering the instructions that are more suitable to the classroom

situation. This adjustment that the teachers adapt promotes effective

 7

communication in a manner that the students can comprehend easily. In

addition, Malacapay (2019) emphasizes the importance of differentiating

instructions concerning the student's learning styles, to be able for

teachers to teach more efficiently and effectively, they must first identify

the different learning styles of the students so that they can modify the

content of their lessons that is much more suitable for the students.

Differentiating instructions based on the student's learning style allows

them to obtain learning information effectively as it matches their

comprehension and other cognitive process. Their study finds that

students' learning styles have no significant relationship to their academic

achievement they identify that learners learn best when the instructions

used by the teachers match their learning styles.

Academic Performance: An Analysis of Written Output, Classroom

Engagement, and Periodical Exams

Understanding academic performance involves examining various

aspects of a student's educational experience. Three fundamental

dimensions are written output, classroom engagement, and periodical

exams. Each plays a distinct role in shaping academic success and

providing insight into a student's learning process. Recent studies have

shed light on how these dimensions interrelate and impact academic

performance.
 8

Written Output

Written output encompasses essays, research papers, and other

written assignments that reflect a student’s ability to express and apply

knowledge. Recent research emphasizes the importance of written

assignments in assessing and developing students’ analytical and

communication skills. For instance, a study by Hartley and Branthwaite

(2019) found that high-quality written output is closely linked to students'

depth of understanding and ability to organize and present ideas

coherently (Hartley & Branthwaite, 2019). Written assignments not only

evaluate comprehension but also serve as a critical tool for developing

critical thinking and writing skills.

Moreover, feedback on written assignments is crucial for academic

development. According to Carless (2020), constructive feedback helps

students understand their strengths and areas for improvement, thereby

enhancing their overall performance (Carless, 2020). The iterative

process of drafting and revising based on feedback allows students to

refine their ideas and improve their writing skills, which is vital for

academic success.

Periodical Exams
 9

Periodical exams are structured assessments that evaluate

students’ understanding of the material covered over specific periods.

They provide a standardized measure of academic performance and are

essential for tracking progress. A study by Zhang et al. (2022) found that

periodical exams serve as effective tools for assessing students' retention

and application of knowledge, emphasizing the role of regular

assessments in academic success (Zhang et al., 2022).

The performance in periodical exams often reflects a student’s

preparation, understanding, and ability to perform under timed conditions.

Effective study habits, time management, and test-taking strategies are

critical for success in these exams. According to a recent study by Kim

and Park (2023), students who develop strong study routines and

manage their time effectively are more likely to achieve higher scores on

periodical exams, which in turn contributes to their overall academic

performance (Kim & Park, 2023).

Interrelation of Dimensions

The interrelation between written output, classroom engagement,

and periodical exams is significant. Engagement in classroom activities

can enhance students' ability to produce high-quality written assignments

and perform well in exams. For instance, active participation in class

discussions often leads to a better understanding of the material, which

 10

translates into improved written output and exam performance.

Conversely, strong performance in written assignments and exams can

boost students’ confidence and engagement levels, creating a positive

feedback loop.

Recent research underscores this interconnectedness. A study by

Schraw and Moshman (2022) highlights that students who perform well in

exams and assignments are more likely to engage actively in class as

their confidence and understanding of the material grow (Schraw &

Moshman, 2022). This cyclical relationship illustrates how improvements

in one dimension can positively impact the others, leading to overall

enhanced academic performance.

In conclusion, academic performance is influenced by various

dimensions, including written output, classroom engagement, and

periodical exams. Each component provides valuable insights into a

student’s learning process and academic success. Recent studies have

demonstrated the significant role each dimension plays and their

interrelated nature. By understanding and addressing these components,

educators, and students can work together to enhance academic

achievement and foster a more effective learning environment.

METHODS

This chapter discusses the research methods and procedures

adhered to by the researcher to systematically answer the specific

problems posed for investigation. Specifically, the research method,

population and samples, research instrument, data gathering procedure,

and statistical treatment of the data used for accurate `data analysis and

interpretation were explained in this chapter.

Research Design

This study will employ a descriptive-correlational research design

to explore the relationship between the use of Interactive Science

Notebooks (ISNs) and the academic performance of Grade 11 ABM

students at Bestlink College of the Philippines. The descriptive aspect of

the study aims to assess students’ knowledge of ISNs, how these

notebooks are utilized in the learning process, and their influence on

academic performance in terms of retention, creative thinking, and critical

 19

thinking. The correlational aspect will examine the degree of relationship

between ISN utilization and students’ academic outcomes, which include

written output, classroom engagement, and periodical exams.

Data will be gathered from students using a survey questionnaire

that evaluates their experience and engagement with ISNs. This will

provide insights into how interactive elements such as foldables,

diagrams, and hands-on activities enhance the students’ learning

process. The ISNs will be integrated into the students’ science learning,

and their academic performance will be tracked and analyzed. A statistical

treatment will be conducted to determine the significance of the

relationship between ISN usage and academic performance.

This research aims to provide valuable insights into the potential of

ISNs to improve students’ learning experiences, ultimately proposing

guidelines for educators on the effective use of ISNs to boost academic

achievement.

Respondents

The chosen respondents of this study were the grade 11

Accountancy, Business and Management students in Bestlink College of

the Philippines. The population size of the grade 11 ABM students is 37

composed of 1 section (ABM 1101), and the total number of chosen

respondents was 37 grade 11 ABM students.

 20

Sampling Technique

In this study, a purposive sampling technique will be employed to

select the respondents. Purposive sampling is a non-probability sampling

method where the researcher selects individuals based on specific

characteristics or criteria relevant to the study. The respondents, who are

Grade 11 ABM students at Bestlink College of the Philippines, were

chosen because they are directly engaged in using the Interactive

Science Notebook (ISN) as part of their science curriculum. By focusing

on this group, the study aims to gain detailed insights into the correlation

between ISN use and academic performance. Since the research seeks

to analyze how ISNs influence students’ retention, critical thinking,

creative thinking, and academic success, this specific group is ideal for

capturing relevant data. This method ensures that the selected

respondents have direct experience with ISNs, which is essential for

answering the research questions and testing the hypothesis.

Instrument

The instrument used in this study to gather data is a survey

questionnaire designed to assess the knowledge, experiences, and

academic performance of Grade 11 ABM students in relation to their use

of Interactive Science Notebooks (ISNs). The questionnaire is divided into

multiple sections:
 21

1. Student Knowledge of ISNs: This section evaluates students’

understanding of what ISNs are and how they are used in the

learning process. Questions may include multiple-choice or Likert

scale items that ask students to rate their familiarity with ISNs and

the interactive elements involved, such as foldables, diagrams, and

hands-on activities.

2. Impact on Learning and Thinking Skills: This section contains

questions related to how ISNs influence retention, critical thinking,

and creative thinking. Students are asked to reflect on whether

they believe the ISNs have helped them remember scientific

concepts, encouraged creative problem-solving, and fostered

critical thinking.

3. Academic Performance Assessment: This section measures

students' performance in three specific areas: written output,

classroom engagement, and periodical exams. Questions will

require students to self-assess their performance in these areas

and indicate whether the use of ISNs has had a positive impact.

4. Difficulties and Solutions: In this section, students are asked to

identify any challenges they encountered while using ISNs and

suggest solutions or improvements. This section aims to gather

 22

insights on areas where the integration of ISNs could be improved

for better student outcomes.

The questionnaire will serve as a key tool in understanding the

relationship between ISNs and academic performance, enabling the

researchers to draw correlations between students' engagement with

ISNs and their success in science learning.

Construction and Validation of Instruments

A survey Questionnaire consisting 4 parts was constructed by the

researcher. The researcher seek the help and assistance to their

research advisers to check the appropriateness and coherence of the

survey questionnaire.

The survey questionnaire was presented to research experts:

Science Coordinator, OIC, Science Laboratory and a Science Professor

for validation to guarantee the reliability and validity of the survey

questionnaire upon its usage. Also to seek guidance with regards to the

questionnaire, questions that might be unnecessary or inappropriate were

revised.

Administration and Retrieval of Instrument

The researchers create letters that seek permission to conduct the

study and its approval. Following acceptance, the researchers promptly

 23

forward the survey questionnaire for review and clearance. After

Clearance, the researchers intervene with their class in (subject). The

researchers explain the parts of ISN and how to utilize Interactive Science

Notebook. The respondents were given 1 full month (4 weeks) before the

researchers manually distributed the survey questionnaire to the

respondents. After distribution, researcher explains first the directions and

parts of the survey questionnaire. They were given twenty (20) minutes to

answer the questionnaire, this follows the retrieval of the Survey

Questionnaire. Lastly, the Data gathered from the respondents will be

examined by the researchers

Statistical Treatment

In this study, statistical treatment plays a critical role in analyzing

the data gathered from Grade 11 ABM students at Bestlink College of the

Philippines, with the primary aim of determining the relationship between

the use of Interactive Science Notebooks (ISNs) and students’ academic

performance. The data from the survey questionnaire will be subjected to

descriptive and inferential statistical analysis.

1. Descriptive Statistics will be applied to summarize the general

findings from the respondents, providing measures of central

tendency such as the mean, median, and mode, as well as

variability (standard deviation). This will allow the researcher to

 24

present an overview of students' familiarity with ISNs, how they

utilize them, and how they perceive the notebooks’ impact on

retention, creative thinking, and critical thinking. Descriptive

statistics will also be used to profile academic performance

outcomes, such as written output, classroom engagement, and

periodical exam scores.

2. Inferential Statistics will be employed to examine the relationship

between ISN use and academic performance. A Pearson

Correlation Coefficient will be used to measure the degree of

association between the independent variable (ISN usage) and the

dependent variables (students' academic performance in written

output, classroom engagement, and exams). The correlation will

provide insights into whether a significant positive or negative

relationship exists, along with the strength of this relationship.

3. To test the significance of the correlation, a z-test for correlation

will be used to assess whether the observed correlation is

statistically significant at a predetermined alpha level (e.g., 0.05).

This will help determine if ISN utilization has a meaningful effect on

academic outcomes.

4. Additionally, a regression analysis may be conducted to predict

academic performance based on the level of engagement with

 25

ISNs, allowing the researcher to quantify how much variance in

academic performance can be explained by ISN use. This will

provide deeper insights into the practical impact of ISNs on student
