Main Article Content
Abstract
This study presents a comprehensive systematic analysis of the 7E Learning Cycle Model's efficacy in transforming science education in the Philippines. Through a meticulous examination of existing literature and empirical data, the study investigates the model's impact on student engagement, conceptual understanding, and overall learning outcomes. Four key themes emerged from the analysis, emphasizing the diverse implementation strategies and associated challenges, the model's role in fostering enhanced student engagement and active learning, the significant improvement in students' conceptual understanding and knowledge retention, and recommendations for the sustainable integration of the model within the Philippine education system. The findings underscore the model's potential in promoting hands-on experimentation, collaborative learning, and technology-enhanced teaching methodologies, thereby creating a dynamic and participatory learning environment for students. Additionally, the study highlights the model's role in fostering a deeper comprehension of scientific concepts, encouraging critical thinking, and nurturing a lifelong passion for scientific inquiry among Filipino learners. The study concludes with recommendations for policymakers and educational stakeholders, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive teacher training programs, tailored instructional materials, and collaborative networks to facilitate the model's sustainable implementation and contribute to the cultivation of a scientifically proficient and technologically adept workforce in the Philippines.
