This study aimed to assess whether HeliXhibit can be a material in teaching the molecular structure of DNA and RNA. The study determined the post-test scores of the participants after using HeliXhibit, their experiences, opinions, and challenges they faced during the hands-on engagement of HeliXhibit. This study used a quasi-experimental design and a purposive sampling technique to select the Grade 11 STEM students from Mactan Senior High School; it utilizes a modified questionnaire to collect data and applies mean, standard deviation, and thematic analysis to measure their learning and experiences. The results showed that students got high post-test scores with a mean of 14.8 and a standard deviation of 0.40, and they also shared positive experiences and opinions with average ratings of 4.60 and 4.55 and standard deviations of 0.14 and 0.05, respectively. These results showed that HeliXhibit can be a material in teaching the molecular structure of DNA and RNA. Based on the challenges identified, the researchers strongly recommend including a user manual and a QR code linking to a video tutorial and a brief discussion to support independent, self-paced learning with HeliXhibit.
