Abstract :
This action research delved into the effect of
non-threatening assessment, particularly learning
journals, to the performance of the grade 12 students of
Holy Angel University in their remedial class in General
Biology I. The students wrote eight learning journals on
the topic discussed to them in remedial class. Using an
adapted rubric, the researcher described the content of
the learning journals and the learners’ achievement in
the researcher-made pre- and posttest. The researcher
found that the students learned the lessons in remedial
class as concepts were reflected in their journal
entriesand that there is a significant difference in the
pre- and posttest scores, with the students registering
higher mean in the posttest. The study recommends the
use of journal writing as a non-threatening assessment
and the longer schedule of remedial sessions for mastery.
