ABSTRACT

This study is focused on the development of concept map package for intervention based on the performance of the Senior High School students in General Physics I. The development of concept map package for intervention included three phases namely: planning phase, development phase, and validation phase. The planning phase involved the conduct of an achievement test. This was analysed as an input to the development of concept map package for intervention. Results of the achievement test revealed that the students got a satisfactory level of performance in General Physics I. On the development phase, concept map package for intervention were developed based on the result of the achievement test. Lastly, on the validation phase, the final draft of the concept map package for intervention was subjected to evaluation by the identified pool of experts in the field of Science/Physics Education. The developed concept map package for intervention in General Physics I was assessed as very much valid, thus it is recommended for use and be tested in the field to further validate its effectiveness.

Key words: Concept mapping, concept mapping strategy, intervention material
