With the adaption of the K-12 Basic Education Program, students are expected
to graduate at an age generally two years older than the graduates of the past
curriculum. This is an advantage since they are considered to be more equipped to deal
with a higher level of learning during their college years. Aside from preparing students
for tertiary education, this curriculum also empowers students to start their own
businesses or start working even without college education as they are equipped with
skills (through electives) in their chosen fields through the Senior High School Program
linguistic competence. With the new curriculum, DepEd promised to offer higher quality
education through tracks. Each track will give students enough time to master a field and
enhance their skills. In the end, K-12 graduates will become globally competitive and are
set to obtain spot in the stiff labor market (Three Practical Benefits of the Philippines’ K

This curriculum, which released its first Senior High School Graduate in 2017,
aims to place its graduate at par with the rest of the world.
In Physics, Grade 7 learners initially learn the basic physics concepts and then
proceed to learning complex physics concepts in the succeeding grade levels (Grades
8, 9, and 10). Specifically, under the Force, Motion, and Energy learning area on
electromagnetic waves, students are first taught about the basic concept of waves in
Grade 7 and when they are in Grade 10, students are taught about the complex concept
One ground for this “basic-to-complex” way of learning (i.e. spiral progression
approach) is that learning of the topics and skills is tailored to the appropriate

Consequently, this action research will seek to answer the following specific
research questions:
1) What are the most common reasons why Senior High School students
2) What are the most common reasons why Senior High School students
3) Will take-home tasks help students who cannot avoid absences cope with
their lessons?
4) Would students be able to avoid absences and tardiness if they were not
block sectioned?
