Sir:

Greetings!
The undersigned will be conducting a research study entitled “Development and
Validation of E-Math Comic Strips in teaching Selected Topics in Geometry”. The
aim of the study is to develop and validate an Electronic Math Comic Strips which may
be of great help in strengthening the students’ knowledge in selected topics in Geometry.
In line with this, we are earnestly requesting for your approval to administer a Pre – test
and Post – test to BSEd Math 1A and 1B in order to gather pertinent data needed for the
study.
Your affirmative response regarding this matter is highly appreciated.
Thank you very much and God bless us all!
