Abstract | Recognizing the importance of promoting gender equality in education, this study focuses on developing a gender sensitivity manual for teaching science subjects in elementary grades aligned with the selected topics in the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs). The manual was created to support teachers in integrating gender sensitive and gender-fair content and approaches in the science subject. Quantitative research utilizing a descriptive evaluative design involves analyzing the MELCs to identify relevant science topics. The manual was developed by the researchers and evaluated by fifty (50) selected science elementary teachers in Davao del Sur using purposive sampling through a validation survey assessing its content, organization, presentation, language and style, accuracy, and usefulness of the manual. The significant findings revealed that the developed gender sensitivity manual was rated as "very highly acceptable" in all five indicators. Science teachers recognized its potential to enhance inclusive learning and promote gender equality among elementary students. In conclusion, the manual is rated as an effective instructional support tool for science teachers, integrating gender-responsive strategies. The study recommends its adoption and further research to determine the effectiveness of the manual created. |
