Resumo

Strategic Intervention Materials (SIM) have emerged as innovative tools designed to bridge learning gaps and enhance student performance, particularly in mathematics where numeracy remains a persistent challenge. This study aimed to determine the acceptability of SIM in improving the numeracy skills of Grade 10 students in one of the public secondary schools in Sariaya East District, Philippines. Specifically, it sought to evaluate the usefulness of SIM in addressing learning gaps of the students and to assess its acceptability in terms of content, clarity, appeal to the target user, and originality. A quasi-experimental design was utilized through pre-test and post-test comparisons, while a descriptive-evaluative method was employed to measure acceptability. A total of 143 students were selected using stratified random sampling. Data were analyzed using Mean Percentage Scores, the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test, and Weighted Arithmetic Mean. Results revealed that the majority of the students were initially classified as non-numerate, but after the intervention, there was a significant improvement in numeracy skills as indicated by the statistical test (p = .001). Furthermore, the SIM was rated “Highly Acceptable” across all evaluated dimensions, demonstrating its acceptability as a supplementary learning resource. The findings imply that SIM is an effective instructional material for enhancing numeracy skills, particularly in mathematics. However, the study was limited to one district and a single grade level, which suggests that future research should cover wider populations and grade levels for broader generalization. It is recommended to enhance SIM by adding interactive, contextual activities to sustain engagement and strengthen mathematical foundations.
