Abstract: Science education is facing challenges globally, and in the Philippines, innovative teaching methods are crucial to enhance student learning outcomes. This study employed a quantitative classroom-based action research design to assess the effectiveness of the Carousel Cooperative Learning Strategy in fostering students’ understanding, engagement, and performance in science through interactive and collaborative learning activities. Conducted during the 2023-2024 academic year in a junior high school in Ozamiz City, Misamis Occidental, Philippines, the study aimed to improve the educational performance of Grade 10 biology students. Participants were selected using purposive sampling based on criteria such as low performance in science. Data collection involved pre-and post-test assessments and lesson plans implementing the Carousel Cooperative Learning Strategy. Descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation, were utilized to analyze student performance before and after implementing the strategy, with a t-test employed to determine significant differences. The results revealed a substantial improvement in student performance, increased interest in science, positive group dynamics, and enhanced confidence in understanding science topics following the strategy’s implementation. This study emphasizes the importance of innovative teaching methods in addressing challenges in science education. It highlights the effectiveness of interactive and collaborative learning strategies like the Carousel Cooperative Learning Strategy in enhancing student learning outcomes. Educators are encouraged to integrate such approaches to foster student engagement and performance in science education while further research can explore their long-term effects and scalability.
