Abstract

Strategic Instructional Materials (SIM) are designed to enhance learning by integrating multimedia resources, aiming to foster student engagement and improve overall academic performance. This study investigates the effectiveness of SIM in MAPEH (Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health) education, focusing on its impact on student achievement and engagement in the subject areas. A true-experimental design was employed with 44 students from San Jose National High School – LNHS Annex, divided into two groups: an experimental group using SIM and a control group receiving traditional teaching methods. Pretests and posttests were administered to assess performance across the four MAPEH components. The findings revealed significant improvements in the posttest scores of the experimental group, indicating that SIM positively influenced student performance. These results support Mayer’s Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning, which underscores the effectiveness of high-quality instructional materials in facilitating learning. The use of multimedia resources such as videos, interactive simulations, and graphics allowed the experimental group to engage more dynamically with the materials, enhancing their understanding of MAPEH concepts. While SIM contributed to improved student performance, the study suggests that more work is needed to foster creativity and critical thinking. Further research is recommended to explore how SIM can be optimized for higher-order thinking and to assess its long-term impact on student participation and learning outcomes. Overall, SIM presents a promising approach to improving student learning, particularly in resource-limited environments, and can contribute to advancing academic excellence in MAPEH education. Future studies should explore its potential in developing 21st-century skills.
