Abstract

In this millennial era, technology is a way of life. The changes in the way people live and the development of technology are some of the reasons why students are less attentive in the classroom discussion. To cope with these changes, the methods of teaching, as well as the tools to be used in teaching, must go with the changes. One of the suggested innovations to capture the attention of the students and to make discussion and teaching more enjoyable is the use of technology. This study utilized the descriptive method of research. Using a checklist survey questionnaire, we conducted a survey consisting of thirty senior high school teachers at Bestlink College of the Philippines. 30 English teachers participated in the survey. Results revealed that teachers: 1.) Use laptops; 2.) Avoid distractions in teaching; and, 3.) Always make their students participate in class discussions. As they make use of technology in teaching, they made teaching more fun and enjoyable for their students to actively participate in lessons by using the appropriate technology. The results demonstrated how the students learned rapidly just by using technology, massively affecting teachers' teaching skills and strategies today. A great increase in students’ participation was noted.
