This study was conducted to evaluate if there is a significant contribution of technology aided instruction to the performance of the students in topic circle.
The score of the students came from five secondary schools in Bongao, Tawi-Tawi under Deped- ARMM, on the researcher-made test served as the performance of the students and were analyzed. The researcher-made test was validated by the experts and item analyzed using Rasch Model. ANOVA and t-Test were employed as statistical treatment of the data.
This study found that there is a significant difference on the performance of students between technology- aided instruction and traditional methods. Apparently, the technology-aided instruction was better than traditional teaching in terms of increasing academic achievement of Grade 10 students; it can be that technology such as power point presentation can enhance student’s learning, prolong their attention span, and memory retention. These conform to the findings of Clark6, Apperson et. al.1, Pearson et. al.20, and Sazabo and Hasting27; Moreover, out of five high schools only BSTHS did not have enough learning in mathematics particularly on the concept of circle.
