ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of Whole Brain Teaching (WBT) compared to Conventional Teaching (CT) in enhancing the understanding of Principles of Speech Delivery among Senior High School students. Participants, consisting of a Controlled Group of 42 and an Experimental Group of 43, were randomly assigned to both teaching methods, with the Whole Brain Teaching Method having 43 participants, while the Conventional Teaching Method had 42. The study used Pre-Test and Post-Test objective tests to measure the students' understanding of the topic, and self-administered questionnaires to collect feedback from the students. The results indicated that the students in the experimental group using WBT had significantly better performance compared to the control group using CT. The study's findings revealed that the use of WBT in the Oral Communication subject was more effective than CT, highlighting the potential of WBT as an effective teaching strategy for educators to consider. Moreover, the study recommends developing modules and instructional materials using WBT in English subjects to enhance Senior High School students' English language skills. This recommendation is particularly important in a globalized world where English proficiency is increasingly valued. Additionally, the study highlights the potential of WBT to improve language learning outcomes, further emphasizing the benefits of incorporating WBT as a teaching strategy. Overall, this study contributes to the ongoing discussion about effective teaching strategies and provides practical recommendations for educators to enhance their teaching practices and improve their students' learning outcomes.
