Abstract

The study aims to embrace complexity and innovation in classroom settings toward student academic performance. Specifically, it aims to answer complexity and innovation models in a classroom setting toward student academic performance of the respondents, fostering active participation and engagement, promoting problem-solving and critical thinking, enhancing learning outcomes, leveraging technology, and addressing complexity. Mixed methods are employed in the research design for both quantitative and qualitative approaches as a result of concurrent Focus Group Discussion (FGD). A convenient sampling method is utilized in the selection of the population sample size. The study comprised fifty (50) respondents only. Results show that embracing complexity and innovation model in classroom setting toward student academic performance incorporates various instructional teaching strategies in different activities such as group works, individual works, discussion, lecture, and engages various learning styles, show that fostering active participation and engagement innovates method in teaching for interactive learning to assist students’ active participation process, show that promoting problem solving and critical thinking develop student critical thinking by embracing complexity and innovation in diverse learning experiences and inclusivity in the real world process of the educational system, show that enhancing learning outcome personalizes and innovates approach to cater diverse learning style and inquiry-based learning, show that leveraging technology involves various digital platforms and tools in enhancing learning and teaching to improve communication skills, personalized learning experiences, enhance, learning engagement, foster collaboration, and facilitate discussion, and show that addressing complexity embraces understanding learning environment such as evolving demands in the community, diverse needs of students which is crucial in creating efficient inclusive and diverse learning experiences.
