Technology-Based in Teaching Shapes among Grade II Pupils in Mapulo Elementary School

Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Technology has played a vital role in educational innovation that's why teachers nowadays use this as a learning tool. Despite the innovation, yet some still failed to incorporate its benefits. In the implementation process, this learning tool explored the creativity and passion of the pupils in using the technology and appreciated its capabilities. In this study, there is an evident success in putting learning to the pupils.

METHODS

The researchers were granted permission to use human subjects in the study. Participants were pre-tested and then taught using technology-based teaching method. Motivation questionnaire and interview guide, achievement tests, and attitude survey were used as instruments. Test scores were conducted, with the data collected through the qualitative descriptive method to add insight into people's attitudes, value system, concerns, motivations, aspirations, ethnicity or lifestyles.

RESULTS

Technology can be described as "the combination of various digital media types, such as text, images, sound, and video, into an integrated multisensory interactive application or presentation to convey a message or information to an audience." Well-designed multimedia helps learners build more accurate and effective mental models than they do from text alone.

DISCUSSIONS

The results demonstrate that the majority of the pupils can interpret and understand the lesson with the use of technology-based approach. Pupils show creativity and passion in using educational technology, they differ in perception and responses in concepts of teaching shapes and appreciate the integration of educational technology in teaching shapes in grade two pupils. The use of educational technology in teaching should emphasize the increase it does to pupil's achievement in Mathematics.
