Computer-based learning (CBL) strategy gives positive impact and increased student motivation in teaching Filipino in the5th grade of Jose Zabarte Elementary School, especially to the students below the average level.
METHODS
This research used Simple Experimental Techniques; the Two-Group Pre-test-Post-test Design to analyze the impact of computer-based learning strategy on the level of student performance. Two-Group Pre-test-Post-test design is the preferred method to compare and measure the degree of changes of the respondents in the strategy result.
RESULTS
The findings imply that there are significant differences in the level of performance of the students in computer-based learning strategies compared to the traditional way of teaching. CBL increased learning for students and helping the learners to develop their creativity, problem-solving ability, communication skills, and other higher-order thinking skills.
DISCUSSIONS
The results of this study show that a computer-based learning strategy is more effective compared to the traditional way of teaching. This is because using computer-based instruction will prepare an active learning environment that is more interesting and effective for both teachers and pupils. It helps to improve classroom management as learners are well behaved and more-focused in their activities. It has a positive impact on motivation, behavior, process skills and communication of students and teachers.
