Abstract

This systematic literature review explores themes in science education interventions aimed at enhancing performance among Filipino students. Culturally tailored interventions, emphasizing alignment with the diverse cultural context of the Philippines, emerge as a crucial factor in improving learning outcomes. Active learning strategies, including hands-on experiments and collaborative activities, prove effective in fostering engagement and understanding. The pivotal role of teacher professional development surfaces as a consistent theme, emphasizing the positive correlation between well-designed programs and heightened student science performance. Additionally, the integration of technology and adoption of blended learning approaches are identified as promising avenues, aligning with the digital-native nature of contemporary students. The synthesis of these themes underscores the need for a multifaceted approach to science education in the Philippines, considering cultural relevance, interactive pedagogies, ongoing teacher development, and technology integration. As the country strives for educational equity and global competitiveness, these findings provide actionable insights for educators, policymakers, and stakeholders seeking to create inclusive and effective science education strategies tailored to the unique needs of Filipino students.
