Abstract

This study aimed to develop Contextualized Strategic Intervention Materials (CSIMs) to enhance the conceptual understanding of Grade 7 students in Ecosystem. The developed CSIMs focused on the topics in Ecosystem for Grade 7 students, aligned with the Most Essential Learning Competencies of the K-12 Curriculum. The development of the contextualized SIM utilized the Research and Development (R&D) model of Borg and Gall (1983). The experts with a mean of 3.93 rated the developed Contextualized Strategic Intervention Materials (CSIMs) “Very Satisfactory”. This indicated good quality in terms of content, format, presentation, organization, accuracy, and up-to-datedness.
