Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Computer Technology
Abstract
This study aimed to determine the enhancement of information and communication technology (ICT) in teaching pre-elementary grade level in the province of Benguet and Baguio City. It sought to find out the level of agreement of the use of ICT in teaching in the pre-elementary, the degree of agreement of teachers on ICT use for performance purposes in the pre-elementary, and the degree of seriousness of the problems encountered in impact of ICT on teaching in the pre-elementary. A total of one hundred eighteen (118) pre-elementary teachers from the two municipalities were the respondents in this study. Based the descriptive method used in this study, the following findings were drawn from the study: the pre-elementary teachers agreed on the level of agreement of the use of ICT in teaching in the pre-elementary, the degree of agreement of teachers on ICT use for performance purposes in the pre-elementary were much used, and the degree of seriousness of the problems encountered in the impact of ICT on teaching in the pre-elementary were much serious. From the findings of the study the following conclusions were drawn: The level of agreement of the use of Information Communication and Technology (ICT) in teaching in the pre-elementary teachers were used by the teachers all the time due to its integrated in the curriculum in the basic education because it useful in helping for problem solving; the respondents' level of agreement regarding teachers' use of ICT for performance purposes in pre-elementary education aligns with the reinforcement of learning skills through the repetition of examples; the degree of seriousness of the problems encountered in impact of ICT in the pre-elementary teachers encountered a serious problem due to the barriers that encountered in the different school.
