Abstract

Motivation plays a crucial role in learners’ academic success, and understanding the factors that influence motivation is essential for educators. This study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of STAR in increasing learners’ motivation during the Academic Year 2023-2024 at a public secondary school in Ozamiz City, Misamis Occidental. The research utilized a Classroom-based Action Research design, selecting 35 students through purposive sampling. Researcher-made questionnaire and interview guide questions were used to gather data. The data is interpreted using statistical tools such as mean, standard deviation, t-test, and thematic analysis. The results indicated a significant increase in the learners’ motivation levels after incorporating STAR into the learning process. Furthermore, there were noticeable enhancements among the learners after the implementation of STAR in the classroom, such as, increased interest in learning and improved confidence. The study concluded that using tokens and prizes enhances student motivation levels, demonstrating STAR’s effectiveness as a motivational strategy. Recommendations include conducting further research to study the long-term and diverse impacts of STAR or giving rewards, exploring enhancements, and additional outcomes to validate further and improve its effectiveness.
