The Alternative Learning System (ALS) of the Schools Division of Gingoog City
conducted a new Learning Management System using Raspberry Pi that aimed to
increase the academic performance of ALS Learners. Raspberry Pi is a small
device, single-board computer sometimes called a small PC in which all the data
can be stored. The study was administered at a selected community learning
center in West 3 district in Barangay San Luis, Gingoog City. This Static-group
Comparison research was conducted on 75 learner-respondents in total,
comprising 40 students in the experimental group who used the Learning
Management System (LMS) and 35 learners in the control group who used the
traditional printed Learning Activity Sheets (LAS). The mean score for ALS
learners using the conventional printed LAS was 80.79, whereas the mean score
for learners utilizing the LMS was noticeably higher at 86.60. The disparity in
mean scores between the two groups, which was statistically significant, points
to a significant variation in academic achievement between the two learning
styles. Thus, the Learning Management System through Raspberry Pi has a
significant contribution to increasing the academic performance of ALS learners.
The researchers recommend to the Division official that this innovation be
supported to strengthen its implementation.
