SING Your Way to a Better Biology

Biology students often struggle with Latin terminology, process sequencing, and conceptual application. This study proposes the SING technique- Syllable Meaning, Integrated Gesture, Netizen Skill, and Guided Reflection which is a multimodal strategy designed to improve biology learning among IGCSE and SPM students. Implemented from 2023 to 2024 the results showed a statistically significant performance in subject grade average difference in IGCSE with 0.48 and in SPM with 1.48. Pre- and post-test comparisons validated effectiveness. From the verbal feedbacks students recall facts quicker, started to incorporate more visualisation in their studies, think critically to solve problem and overall being more confident. Future work will explore integrating SING with educational technologies to further enhance student engagement and learning outcomes.

Abstract

Biology students often struggle with Latin terminology, process sequencing, and conceptual application. This study proposes the SING technique- Syllable Meaning, Integrated Gesture, Netizen Skill, and Guided Reflection which is a multimodal strategy designed to improve biology learning among IGCSE and SPM students. Implemented from 2023 to 2024 the results showed a statistically significant performance in subject grade average difference in IGCSE with 0.48 and in SPM with 1.48. Pre- and post-test comparisons validated effectiveness. From the verbal feedbacks students recall facts quicker, started to incorporate more visualisation in their studies, think critically to solve problem and overall being more confident. Future work will explore integrating SING with educational technologies to further enhance student engagement and learning outcomes.
