Abstract:

Philippines’ K to 12 curriculums quite differs from the foreign countries. Part of the country’s curriculum is the Mother Tongue for grades one to three. It is where teachers will use a dialect specific for the region. Particularly in Davao Region, Cebuano is used as the medium of instruction for different subjects excluding English and Filipino subjects. Mother tongue today is a challenge for the K to 12 teachers. Even without the mother tongue, the demand of teaching materials is rapidly increasing in order to be effective in conveying instructions to the students. In this study, the researchers were able to developed a possible solution to help meet the demand and to increase productivity. The lessons are pre-programmed in the application accompanied with a question and answer feature for student evaluation purposes.
