Abstract :
This study investigated the effects of case-
based learning approach to the perceived cognitive skills
among Grade 9 students at two (2) selected schools in
Region 10, Philippines. Specifically, it aimed to assess
students’ level of perceived cognitive skills in terms of:
processing speed; working memory; logic and reasoning;
long term memory; and comprehension; and ascertain
significant difference on students perceived cognitive
skills. The study utilized a quasi-experimental research
design to assess the effectiveness of the case-based
learning approach on students perceived cognitive skills
in Chemistry. The Gibson Cognitive Skill test
questionnaire with Cronbach alpha of 0.87 was used to
measure the perceived level of cognitive skills. It was
found that the students from school A under CBL had a
high perceived cognitive skill while students exposed to
non-CBL had moderate perceived skills. For School B,
students had high perceived cognitive skills in science for
both CBL and non-CBL group. However, there was no
significant difference on students perceived cognitive skill
from School A and B.
