Exploring the Efficacy of Gallery Walk as a Learning Technique on the Performance in Mathematics of Grade 9 Students

Gallery Walk is an interactive and collaborative learning strategy that involves students walking around the classroom to observe and engage with different displays or stations of information.The participants of this study were the 72 grade 9 students of Mindanao Mission Academy, Manticao, Misamis Oriental. This study sought to find out the significant difference between the pretest and post-test scores in mathematics when exposed using the Gallery Walk learning technique and the lecture method. The study used a true experimental research design, the randomized pretest-posttest control group design. This study utilized the percentage, independent t-test, and paired t-test to analyze the results. A paired t-test revealed a significant difference between the pretest and post-test scores of the students when exposed using the gallery walk learning technique compared to the lecture method, as shown in the mean difference of 8.4722 with a t-value of 5.813 and a p-value of 0.00000136, which is less than the p-value of 0.05 level of significance, and that leads to the rejection of the null hypothesis. This study concluded that a gallery walk learning technique can improve the student’s performance in mathematics.
