The problem of this case, some students were facing problem-solving but the evidence
suggests problem base learning is an instructional approach that offers the potential to help
students develop flexible understanding and lifelong learning skills, and also it helps students
develop skills for leaving in a knowledge. It has passively learning facts and there is no longer
sufficient to prepare students to survive in today’s world. Probably it is because of today’s life
were has a big difference before. Like for now it is easy to learned because of some technology
was formed and otherwise it is easy to memorize those things because of today’s happenings.
Education coupled with technology is overall a very positive thing. It's still in relative
infancy and progress will continue to move forward making better systems. Teachers will still
retain control over learning. The school of 10 years ago looks very different from schools today.
Students are being inundated with technology at a very young age. The transition has already
begun. Education of the future will be delivered with current information delivered through
traditional teaching methods and fantastic technological tools.

Over time, learning became easier and faster with the help of different tools and
methods. Blackboards have been used for at least a millennium, books and pamphlets have
held a prominent role in education. Now we have innovated technologies that can be used for
Educational Technology is the study and ethical practice of facilitating learning and
and resources. According to David L. (2017) there are three (3) major educational theories,
such as Behaviorism, Cognitivism and Constructivism that widely implemented in education and
behaviorism, further developed the behavior theory, rewards and punishment can change one’s
learning performance. Researchers and scholars confirmed that Behaviorism has greatly
promoted and effectively implemented in programmatic instruction, and has strongly promoted

CHAPTER 2
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
This chapter presents the related literature and studies, foreign and local which provided
the researcher the needed information and direction for the completion of the study.
Foreign Literature
Lynne Schrum, past president of the International Society for Technology in Education
(ISTE), is an associate professor in the department of instructional technology at the University
of Georgia. Her research, teachings, and writings focus on issues related to distance education,
specifically online learning. Schrum also investigates the uses of technology in K-12
environments and identifies ways to support educators in the effort. Educators want students to
learn. She said that It is certainly not enough to tell educators that they need to use the boxes
and wires that have invaded their schools simply because they are expensive or because
students need to know how to use the latest widget. If it's clear that technological tools will
help them achieve that goal, educators will use those tools. Technology lends itself to
exploration. But before technology can be used effectively, exploration must be valued as
important to both teaching and learning. In a technology-rich classroom, students might search
the Web for information, analyze river water, chart the results, and record what they've learned
on the computer.In such an environment, acquiring content changes from a static process to
one of defining goals the learners wish to pursue. Students are active, rather than passive --
producing knowledge and presenting that knowledge in a variety of formats. In a technology-
rich classroom, students don't "learn" technology. Technology merely provides the tools to be
used for authentic learning. It is a means, not an end.
According to Benjamin Herold(2016) Technology is everywhere in education: Public
schools in the United States now provide at least one computer for every five students. They
spend more than $3 billion per year on digital content. Led by the federal government, the
country is in the midst of a massive effort to make affordable high-speed Internet and free
online teaching resources available to even the most rural and remote schools. And in 2015-16,

for the first time, more state standardized tests for the elementary and middle grades will be
administered via technology than by paper and pencil.
There were seven (7) steps for adapting technology to the classroom by Sean Nank
(2017) As the recession of 2008 becomes a not too distant memory, some schools are finding
themselves better funded. With this comes the acquisition of technology for schools and
classrooms. The widespread introduction of technology can have amazing impacts on curricula,
pedagogy, and student learning. But some schools have not experienced these results. The
following are the seven aspects of adapting technology that will help you avoid lackluster
results. Buy technology for teachers and students, Use the 10% rule (If you have $100,000
total to spend on technology, then spend $90,000 and set aside $10,000 for professional
development and training to support teachers while implementing the technology.),Give
teachers time, Choose a platform and stick with it, Technology for the sake of technology,
Students are and are not digital natives ,lastly is Assess with technology in a meaningful way.
According to Kelsey Sheehy(2012) The proliferation of social media and technology has
changed the way educators teach, how students learn, and the way teachers and students
communicate. Bob Wise a former governor of West Virginia and president of the Alliance for
Excellent Education, an advocacy organization, said that "You can't just slap a netbook
[computer] on top of a textbook and say, 'Great, now we have technology," Good teaching,
especially the kind that involves working with evolving technologies, sometimes requires good
advice. "The whole intention of Digital Learning Day is to really celebrate teachers and good
instructional learning practices," says Sarah Hall, director of the Alliance's Center for Secondary
School Digital Learning and Policy.
It’s hard to determine whether technology in the classroom is helpful or harmful.
Samantha Cleaver (2014) wrote an article about it. With a world of information at their
fingertips nowadays, it seems like kids should be finding it easier than ever to succeed in
school. However, as more classrooms invest in the latest technology, test scores remain the
same, bringing its effectiveness into question. “Incorporating technology into the classroom
requires a double innovation,” says Shelley Pasnik, director of the Center for Education and
Technology, Educators who receive new technology must first learn how to use the equipment
and then decide whether or not it supports the class objectives and curriculum. Despite the
challenges, incorporating technology into education still has proven benefits, especially when it

comes to personalized learning. From math games that adjust the level of difficulty as players
progress to electronic books that talk and respond to the tap of a finger, products that
personalize the learning experience for students often benefit their understanding. An
interactive game is more engaging than a book, so technology often promotes more practice
and review in areas requiring memorization, such as spelling, math and geography. This frees
up time in the classroom so educators can focus on skills like problem solving, character
development and critical thinking.
Local Literature
The Philippine Star created an article last 12th of July 2014 about how technology helps
students study well. According to it more and more school use technology such as computers
and the internet in their classroom and several improvements on students have seen and they
are now getting better in education. These improvements are the following: Independence and
information gathering, Critical thinking and reflection, Communication and collaboration, More
engaging learning experience and Preparation for jobs later on. By connecting the internet,
students learn how to do their own research and with the large information that they access.
Students are induced to learn to think critically. Through exchange of ideas and messages,
students are able to collaborate with each other to test their understanding of lessons.
Information today is more engaging to the mind and the senses because of its multimedia
nature. Knowing all of these improvements and advantages. more and more schools are
allowing not just desktop computers and laptops, but also tablet devices and smartphones in
their classrooms.
According to John Paul Espinosa (2016) Technological advances had greatly changed
the education landscape in that teaching is no longer confined to the traditional face-to-face
delivery of lessons. Now, via internet we can also learn not only in the classroom but outside
the school. Through the convergence of modern and traditional methods, students are now able
to experience the best of both worlds. They can learn from school and get additional
information or lessons through the web and internet. A survey conducted by Pearson
Foundation in the United States found that more than six in 10 college students and high school
seniors agree that they study more efficiently by using tablets. A study conducted by Houghton
Mifflin Harcourt in California also showed that students using iPads performed better in math
compared to students using traditional textbooks. Another study at Oklahoma State University

found that 75 percent of students said the use of gadgets enhanced their learning experience.
Even though that the parents and some teacher fear that gadgets may distract students,
surveys and studies have shown that these technological devices are a big help in
learning.Today, more states administered tests for the elementary and high school through the
internet, discarding the use of the traditional pen and paper.
Back in 1960s where computers are very bulky to the very compact gadgets of the
present time, technology had been continuously developing in the past decades. Accroding to
John Rifuno I. Macaset(2017) a BS Computer Engineering, technology had played great roles in
many people’s daily tasks starting with the conception of the personal computer, people’s work
became faster, and communication with other people became easier. Recent years, the use of
technology in education has been proven beneficial to both teachers and students. With the use
of the internet, teachers are able to communicate with their students more easily, and allows
them to distribute learning materials such as assignments, exercises, and tests to their pupils.
According to a blog posted by Angel de Dios(2012) How technology affects learning
from the views of teachers, With iPads, Facebook, smartphones, video games, music, and
others, technology now occupies a significant amount of a child's time in the United States
(almost eight hours a day - National Center for Education Statistics, USA). Students in the
Philippines probably face the same increasing amount of time spent on these activities provided
by technology. Thus, it is time to ask how current technology affects student learning. The
response from teachers is particularly important since their perspective comes directly from the
classroom.
Why teachers have to use technology? article by Glenny E. Laping(2016) according to it,
technology is a way of life. It is everywhere in this computer age. Students use technology
improperly and unproductively so teachers should provide guidance for them. Also free
educational tools are easier and faster to use than the traditional tools. Teachers could use this
to build student’s collaborative, communication , problem-solving, critical and creative thinking
skills. Technology alone cannot develop in students the skills necessary to succeed in today’s
world. Teachers and parents should teach and guide the young to use technology the right way
productively.

Technology is a way to improve students goals. But are they using it the way it meant to
be in classes ? Eric Milou , conducted a study that examined the algebra teachers if they
are using graphic calculators when they are teaching , their awareness over technology,
changes in curriculum or instructional practices. The ones who became a part of the study were
students and teachers. They were selected solely because of its great variety of population.
The study has surveys to be completed by the ones who participated. Of the 243 surveys, 146
were returned , for an aversge rate of 60%. It has been confirmed that with the use of
graphing calculator is still likely to disagree to many algebra teachers. But the majority of the
teachers says that the use of graphing calculator is a great tool for motivating the students.
In the James Kulik Study (1994), the researcher used a technique called meta-
analysis to aggregate the findings from more than 500 individual studies of computer-based
instruction. Computer based instruction individualizes the educational process to accommodate
the needs, interests, and learning styles of each student (Kulik, 1994, 4). The study
found that students who used computer-based instruction scored at the 64th percentile on
test of achievement compared to students in the control conditions without computers who
scored at the percentile. This study helps to show that student achievement can be affected
positively especially through assessment scores. Students also tend to like their classes
more and develop more positive attitudes towards learning which results in positive academic
achievement.
According to Taibah university (2017).Their study was conducted on 231 students who
studying physiology during their 2nd year at one five health colleges they are the ( Medicine,
Dental, Clinical Pharmacy ,Applied medical sciences , and nursing).Their research was
an online survey to the students regarding to the use of technology and the devices they use.
The Pearson correlation coefficient and descriptive statistics were implemented to study
the frequency of ,and relationship between technology and their learning achievements in
physiology courses.They study observed a significant relationship between students use of
technology , and the most used devices is laptops (50℅) phones (42℅) followed by
tablets (7℅) and the desktop computers (0.5℅) .The result of their online survey tells that
technology usage might produce comparatively more significant increase in academic
achievements than would non-usage of technology.

There are many terms that are currently in use so far as ICT in Education is
concerned. Many terms have come and gone and there are overlaps in some instances which
are not necessarily identical. Bybee, Poewll, and Trowbridge (2008) categorize the uses
of computer and associated technologies in science education into three as follows:
learning about computers, learning with computers and learning through computers. Learning
about computers which deals with knowledge of computers may be thought of as a continuum
which ranges from skills in and awareness of computers at lower level to programming at
higher level (Tabassum, 2004). In this situation students develop technological literacy which
essentially involves acquiring computer-related terminology.
In Harold Wenglinsky's National Study of Technology's Impact on Mathematics
Achivement, Wenglinsky found out that who used higher order of thinking software shown
the gains in math scores of up to 15 weeks above grade levels. Wenglinsky also controlled
for socioeconomic status, class, size, and teacher’s characteristics. Thus, all relationships
between technologies and educational outcomes had represented the value added by
technology for comparable groups of students with comparable teachers in a comparable
class sizes. This study has consisted a national sample of about 6,227 fourth grade students
and 7,146 grade eight students on the National Assessment of Educational Progress. Then
another finding was found that higher order uses of computers and professional development
were related to student's academic achievement in mathematics for both 4th and 8th grade
students. The use of computers mainly for 5 simulations and applications had resulted in
higher math achievement.
Local Studies
According to the study of Jimson Mariano (2017) The Philippine government has been
committed to bring the educational system into a modernized status, particularly on basic
education, in its effort to make each and every student at par with other students of
neighboring developed countries. Our country is now capable to utilize and produce information
and to transform it into knowledge and vast array of goods and services. The Department of
Education (DEPED) has initiated in 1996 a computerization program with the goal of preparing
Filipino students for employment and competitive career by teaching them to master new forms
of technology. They also would like to harness and enhance the power of technology towards

developing the entire teaching-learning process, specifically in its bid to make each and every
public school student empowered in this highly globalized and integrated world economy.
ICT plays a major role in creating a new and improved model of teaching and learning
where education happens anytime and anywhere. According to Diwanie Perez (2016) to achieve
this vision we should continue to use ICT to revitalize our schools to make them to dynamic,
collaborative and innovative learning institutions where students can become more motivated,
inquisitive and creative learners. Also to link students with vast networked world of knowledge
and information and develop student’s skills and capabilities to critically and intelligently seek
,absorb, analyze, manage and present information. The assessment of the current state of
computerization of public schools will aim to help DepEd better integrate ICT in its ambitious K
(Kindergarten) to 12 Basic Education Curriculum (BEC) reform program. • Education Secretary
Armin Luistro said that ICT education will be an important aspect as they formulate an
effectively enhanced K to 12 BEC curriculums. “We have to set up our ICT thrust as we
gradually implement the K to 12 Basic Education Reform Program. As we all know, ICT plays a
very important role in administrative functions as well as in the teaching and learning process,”
Luistro explained.
According to Melvin Matulac, Assistant Prof at University of Santo Tomas, Today’s
education faces a lot of challenges. The swirling changes and developments in teaching and
learning all seem promising and yet are still at their infant stages. There is resurgence for
Constructivist approaches in the classroom. Howard Gardner contradicts the IQ phenomena
with his own findings on Multiple Intelligence. The banking method of education is totally
unacceptable to some education circles and yet the new methods bring their own share of
confusion. The use of technology is at least one unavoidable reality and twenty years after the
introduction of the PC, as many roads have been paved for us to follow, a lot of work still lay
ahead. In the present stage, since technology is here to stay, some educators took a second
look at how technology is being used. Instead of technology dictating what they should do, they
started telling technology what they wanted to do in teaching core subjects. The technology
experts of the school started shifting gears. From being the untouchable nerds in the computer
lab, they suddenly found themselves as the assistants of the teachers finding ways to bring
technology at the service of learning.

Education has changed a lot because of the development of information Technology and
knowledge information society. According to Reynato Arimbuyutan (2007) Educational infra of
the Philippines was meager before 4-5 years Also computing and Internet infra it will not

there is progressing various project with more interest about e-Learning. Therefore, the study

environment. The study is structured as follows. In chapter 2, Environment of education in the
Philippines. In chapter3, environment of e-Learning in the Philippines, Lastly, e-Learning
environment and prospects of the study is made in chapter 4 of his study
According to the MST News (2013) millions of Filipino students are back to schools.
Some will be studying more comfortably in air-conditioned rooms, complete with hi-tech
learning tools such as computers and modern methodologies. Others will not be as privileged.
Still, learning takes precedence over disparities in learning conditions. Substance over form, we
say. With the recent implementation of the K to 12 program, the country’s basic education
curriculum undergoes a major overhaul in the form of two additional years from the existing 10-
year basic education. The authority says the transition will provide sufficient time for mastery of
concepts and skills, develop lifelong learners, and prepare graduates for tertiary education,
middle-level skills development, employment, and entrepreneurship. Moreover, the reform
would make the Philippines comparable and competitive with other countries, as the 12 years of
basic schooling had long been a global standard. But while the change is a welcome
development, it may still be considered protracted if taken in the larger context of learning,
which is transforming by leaps and bounds.
Synthesis of the Reviewed Literature and Studies
Accordingly, the related literatures and studies just reviewed provided guides and
directions necessary for the researchers to meet the desired objectives.
Technology has impacted almost every aspect of life today. Technology has profoundly
changed education in many ways,. For one, technology has greatly expanded access to
education. In medieval times, books were rare and only an elite few had access to educational

Inquiry-based Learning
Inquiry based learning is mainly involving the learner and leading him to understand.
Inquiry here implies on the possessing skills and attitude of yours, which allows you to ask
questions about new resolutions and issues while you are gaining new information.
Dictionary meaning of Inquiry is seeking knowledge, information, or truth through
questioning. All the people carry on with the process throughout their life even if you might find
it not very much reflecting. For example, infants used inquiry to build their sense of the world,
the babies turn towards voices, put things in their mouths, grasp things, and observe faces that
come near. The inquiry process is mainly gathering of data and information and applying them
to senses like smelling, tasting, touching, hearing and seeing.
Very sadly, our traditional ways of teaching discourage the process of inquiry. It makes
the student get less prone to asking questions as they move through their grades leaves, they
are just expected to listen and repeat the expected answers. This is due to the lack of
understanding of inquiry based learning. Inquiry based learning is not just asking questions, but
it is as a way of converting data and information into useful knowledge. A useful application of
inquiry based learning involves many different factors, which are, a different level of questions,
a focus for questions, a framework for questions, and a context for question.

Much mesmerizing information and facts are readily available, which needs an understanding of
how to make sense out of it and turn it into useful knowledge. The teacher must be able to
analyze that he or she does into only have to accumulate information and data but also have to
generate it into useful knowledge. The teachers must be able to analyze that he or she into
only have to accumulate information and data but also have to generate it into useful
knowledge, which can be easily done through inquiry based learning. Our country’s success
depending upon natural resources is the past; the future of our country’s success now depends
upon the workforce which works smarter.
There are four elements on which inquiry based learning depend, which are, first is that the
patterns and meanings should not be deceptive to the beginners, second is that the useful
knowledge about a field should be structured, third is that the knowledge which is structured
should be applicable, transferable, and accessible to a vast range of situations, fourth is that
the structured knowledge should be easily retrieved so that new information in that particular
field could be gained without much effort.
Inquiry based learning can be applied on all disciplines which has been confirmed through
different researches. Learners have different perspective of viewing the world like economic,
historic, scientific, artistic, etc. The disciplines can be interrelated through inquiry based
learning, which ensures the integrity of different disciplines in the world views about them.
The teachers must organize their lesson plans according to the changing, interrelating, and
communicating of knowledge. A good teacher’s worksheet enables the student to increase its
study skills by providing different ways of viewing the world, communicating with it and
successfully introducing new questions and issues of daily life and finding answers of them.
Questioning and finding answers is an extremely important factor of inquiry based learning as it
aids you in generating effective knowledge.
In the end, inquiry based learning is basically teaching the students to have a greater
understanding of the world they work, communicate, learn, and live in.

Research Design
The study used the descriptive-correlational design to collect and analyze the significant
relationship in the perception of technology and its effect to Grade 12 students of Tigbauan
National High School. The descriptive research design aims to create a snapshot of the current
state of affairs. It provides a relatively complete picture of what is occurring at the given time.
It also seeks familiarity with the subjects under study, portrays accurately selected
characteristics of the subjects and provides necessary background for the formulation of a more
precise problem for subsequent, more specific study and for the development of the hypothesis.
On the other hand, correlation research, sometimes known as association research, measures
the relationship between and among two or more variables and gives an indication of how one
variable may depict another. The appropriateness of this design was based on the main
purpose of the study which was to determine the significant relationship in the perception of
technology and its effect to Grade 12 students of Tigbauan National High School.

The researchers focused on content validity, which refers to the accuracy with which an
instrument measures the factors under study. Therefore, content validity was concerned with
how accurate the questions asked tended to elicit the information sought. A preliminary version
of the questionnaire instrument was tested for content validity by giving the questionnaire to
the validator Rofel T. Torrefranca, Teacher III of Tigbauan National High School. He is
considered experts in the field of statistics, business administration, and mathematics. The
validator was provided with the criteria for validating the questionnaire. Feedback was
requested on all elements of the survey instrument, including data requested and implications
for analysis, cognitive aspects, layout of design, length of the survey instrument, and the order
of questions.

The purpose of the reliability test is to identify whether the instrument was capable to
measure what it intended to measure and to select good and poor items quantitatively.
After the questionnaire was corrected and finalized, it was tested for reliability. The
National High School. Using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software, the
questionnaire obtained a reliability coefficient on sex of 0., 0.8907 age and 0.9201 for strand,
all of which indicate that the instrument was reliable. The areas of the questionnaire were
considered reliable because according to Smith (2001), if the computed reliability coefficient is
0.80 or more but not more than 1, then the questionnaire would be reliable.

This chapter presents the summary of the research study, findings, conclusions derived
from the findings and the recommendations arrived by the researchers.
Summary
This study determined the relationship between between the perception of technology
and its effect to Grade 12 students of Tigbauan National High School. The study used
descriptive-correlational research design to collect and analyze the personal data of the
students perception about the effects of technology in the learning process of the students. The
respondents of the study were the 50 ghrade 12 students randomly selected which represent
the entire population of Senior High School grade 12 students of Tigbauan National High
School. They were classified as to sex, age and strand.
For statistical tools, the researchers used mean and standard deviation for the
descriptive statistics. For the inferential statistics, the researcher used one-way ANOVA
(Analysis of Variance), and Pearson's product-moment coefficient of correlation. All inferential
statistics were tested at 0.05 alpha level of significance.
First, the perception about technology identified by the Grade 12 students of Tigbauan
National High School when taken as a whole was “often” affects the inquiry-based learning
process of the students.

technology in terms of sex or as to male and female the result revealed “often”, in terms of age
as to seventeen (17), eighteen (18), nineteen (19) and twenty (20) the result revealed “often”
and in terms of strand as to STEM, ABM, HUMSSM GAS, BPP, TAILORING and ICT the result
revealed “often” whuich means that the perception of students on technology regularty affects
their learning process.
Third, the effects of technology identified by the grade 12 students of Tigbauan National
High School when taken as a whole was “undecided” that means that they are in doubt about
the effects of technology in their learning process.
Fifth, there was a significant difference in the perception about technology identified by
the Grade 12 students of Tigbauan National High Schhol when classified as to sex, age and
strand.
Sixth there was no significant difference in the effects of technology in their learning
process identified by the Grade 12 students of Tigbauan NNational High School when classified
as to sex, age and strand.
Seventh, there was no significant relationship between the perception in technology and
its effects in the learning process of the students as identified by the Grade 12 students of
Tigbauan National High School.
Conclusions:
Perception about technology identified by the Grade 12 students was “often” and in
terms of se, age and strand were also “often” .
There was a significant difference in the perception about technology identified by the
grade 12 students of Tigbauan National High School when classified as to sex, age and strand
therefore the alternative hypotheses was accepted.
The effects of technology identified by the Grade 12 students when taken as a whole
and wen classified as to sem age and strand was “undecided”.

There was no significant difference in the effects technology identified by the grade 12
students of Tigbauan National High School when classified as to sex, age and strand therefore
the alternative hypotheses was also rejected.
There was no significant relationship between the perception in technology and its
effects in the learning process of the students as identified by the Grade 12 students of
Tigbauan National High School.Therefore the alternative hypotheses was rejected.
In conclusion, technology affects the students but they are able to attain their grades
and also to learn different things with the help of it.
Recommendations
Based on the findings and conclusions, the following courses of action are recommended:
The present study has shown that many students are relying on technology for their
academic needs. It is recommended that future studies should continue to monitor students'
usage and attitudes toward technology. It is also important that we study how to best support
those students who are not using the technology, in spite of efforts made by the university
authorities to assist them. Future studies are needed to address how using technology may
contribute to the long-term retention of knowledge and acquisition of skills and in the learning
process of the students..
There are some limitations to this study, although the focus of this study was the
perception about technology and its effects of the learning process of the students, it would
also be beneficial to conduct the survey with administrators, instructors, and other related
personnel. Students' degree of experience in using technology might have been specifically
measured.
The researchers recommend to get validators who are expert in the field and at the
same time who are teaching so that the validators may consider the level of comprehension of
the respondents with regards to technicality of the study being conducted for the validation of
the questionnaire.
