Abstract:
This study aims to assess the impact of the task-based approach on English language acquisition of Grade 6 students in Pamatawan Integrated School in Subic, Zambales, Philippines. In order to achieve the aim of the study, the researcher used a pre-test post-test control group design. The study also recruited thirty-two (32) Grade 6 students (with proper consent with their parents) to participate in the said research. To elicit the necessary data for the study, the researcher used standardized assessment tools, activity modules, and grades. In tabulating and computing for the gathered data, the researcher employed software like Microsoft Excel for the data tabulation and SPSS 23 for computing the statistical treatment. The result of the paired t-test shows that there was a significant improvement in the students' performance after the task-based approach intervention's implementation. From this result, the researcher recommends the use of the said approach especially in the English language acquisition aspects of the learners.
