    Margie L. Matuguina is proposing a research study on the effects of overcrowded classrooms on academic performance. Overcrowding occurs when there are more students enrolled than a school's capacity and it is agreed that a class of 35 or more pupils is overcrowded. The study aims to examine the impact of overcrowded classrooms on teaching and bring these issues to the attention of policymakers. It will utilize a quasi-experimental design using pre- and post-tests to measure the academic performance of students in overcrowded versus non-overcrowded classrooms. The researcher hopes the study will help identify problems teachers face and find solutions to reduce the negative effects of overcrowding on teacher and student achievement

    Subject: Research Proposal

    Research Topic: Classroom size which is very crowded and it is not


    conducive for learning anymore.

    I. Context and Rationale


    Overcrowding occurs when a school facility enrolls more pupil than it
    was designed to accommodate (Hornick – Lockard, 2015). Most schools
    identified as overcrowded are in areas where the school-age populations are
    growing fast. It had been agreed that overcrowding involves a class of 35
    pupils or more.
    The study was purposely aimed at examining / investigate effect of
    teaching overcrowded classrooms in academic performances. The research
    proposal made these problem to be known to the policy makers, education
    stakeholders as well as the Government, by implementing different
    recommendations suggested by the study, and then any problems caused by
    overcrowded classroom may be solved or taken into considerations.

    II. Proposed Innovation, Intervention, or Strategy


    The researcher hopes that this study will serve school principals to
    identify the problems faced by the teachers in overcrowded classes, in order
    to find solutions and to decrease the effect of these problems on the level of
    teachers participation and students achievement. This study will provide base
    for further research in this field and will very fruitful in the best interest of
    the students, teachers, administrators and government to think over the
    problems and do something for their solutions.
    III. Action Research Questions

     What were the problems or challenges you experienced when teaching


    in overcrowded classrooms?

     What positive aspects did you experience when teaching in


    overcrowded classrooms?
    IV. Action Research Methods
    a. Participants and/or other Sources of Data and Information
    The participants of this action research are selected Grade 10
    students composed of 2 sections selected through purposive sampling. One
    group will constitute the control group and the other section will be the
    experimental group. Then, the 2 groups are both heterogeneous groups.

    b. Data Gathering Methods


    The data to be gathered will be coming from the results of the
    pretest and post-test scores of the participants coming from the control
    and experimental groups. This research utilizes a quasi-experimental
    research design. And standardized pre-test and post-test will be used as
    instruments in gathering the data.

    c. Data Analysis Plan


    Identifying keywords such as challenges, problems, noise,
    disruption, and tests. Categorizing responses according to keywords,
    such as poor discipline and academic achievement. Consolidating
    categories into subthemes such as learners lack of motivation; and
    organizing subthemes under a main theme, such as the influence of
    overcrowded classrooms on academic achievement.

    V. Action Research Work Plan and Timelines


    I will conduct the study possibly right after the pandemic we face
    right now. And it will last from 1-2 months with the help of the
    teachers and students.

    VI. Cost Estimates


    10,000 – 15,000

    VII. Plans for Dissemination and Utilization


    The result of this study should be disseminated and utilized to the
    DepEd personnel’s so that the heads should be aware of this certain crucial
    issue in the different schools for the sake of the learning of the students.
