Abstract
This study aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of game-based activities as a teaching strategy in Chemistry for grade 9 students at Francisco P. Felix Memorial National High School, Cainta, Rizal during the school year 2022-2023.Sixty (60) students from two sections of grade 9 at F.P. Felix Memorial National High School served as respondents in using the developed game-based activities. The evaluation of the activities was based on a test composed of thirty multiple choice questions about the topic of Chemical Structures of Matter, Chemical formula, simple binary compound nomenclature, and chemical bonding for the second grading period. The statistical tools to treat the data were weighted mean, standard deviation, and t-test.Game-based activities were developed as teaching strategies for the Electronic Structure of Matter and Chemical Bonding. Overall, experts obtained a mean of 3.86 while teachers got 3.90 all are interpreted as Very Satisfactory. Also, there was no significant difference in the evaluation of the two-group respondents on the developed game-based activities. Based on the findings, it is recommended that game-based activities may be incorporated into teaching and learning processes, and further research could be conducted to investigate the effectiveness of this game-based activities in different grade levels in science in the Junior High School. Teachers and educators should receive adequate training and professional development on how to make, design and implement effective game-based activities in the classroom. Other teachers may develop, and design game-based activities as prescribed by the DepEd to improve learning outcomes of clientele.
