Abstract :
The study aimed to investigate the Cognitive Effect in the Science of Inquiry – Based Approach in an E – Learning Platform in Science 10. This quasi-experimental research used the Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD). This design has solid internal validity despite the lack of randomized assignments. The study used Aptitude Treatment Interaction (ATI) theory; it focused not only on a single cognitive ability but rather on the diverse cognitive abilities of the subjects. The researcher applied the idea in the Inquiry – Based Approach in an E – Learning Platform in teaching Science to improve teachers` instruction and enhance the cognitive performance of the learners. A total of 180 Grade 10 learners from Canumay West National High School were taken as subjects of this study for the school year 2018 – 2019. The researcher employed a purposive sampling technique where the Diagnostic Test Result Scores were used to determine the cut–off of the three groups. Forty-seven learners were considered above-average performing group, eighty-seven were regarded as Average performing Group, and forty-six were considered low performing group. The results establish that throughout the program, most learners had shown a degree of improvement in their performance. At the same time, a few persist in having learning deficits. The researcher established that the Inquiry – Based Approach in an E-Learning Platform was an effective program that increases learners` cognitive performance.
