The Effectiveness of the Utilization of Blended Learning in High School Mathematics of Lopez East and West Districts: Basis for a Home Learning Plan

Mildred Olanda

Discipline: Education

 

Abstract:

The study was designed in order to determine the effectiveness of the utilization of blended learning (BL) in High School mathematics within Lopez District. It specifically identified the teachers’ profile, and the effectiveness of the extent of teachers’ utilization of BL along the eight dimensions such as pedagogical, technological, interface, management, evaluation, resource support, ethical and institutional dimensions. The study also measured the comparison of the effectiveness of utilizing BL among teachers of different profiles, and how BL affect the learners’ academic performance in high school mathematics which led to the development of Home Learning Plan containing the flow of lessons using blended learning. Thus, the study employed the descriptive-evaluative correlational method of research. Based on the findings, there was a very evident extent of effectiveness of the utilization of Blended Learning found. Hence, the effects of using the blended learning to the performance of the student in high school mathematics have been found very effective. Also, there was a significant difference found on the rank orders of the utilization of Blended learning that affect the learners’ academic performance in mathematics with computed z-value and equivalent probability associated which is 0.26 and 0.3974 respectively. Implications of the study were discussed and recommendations have been indicated.
