Abstract:
This study discusses the correlation of the
integration of technology in educational instruction and students’
interest in learning Science 10. It investigated the teachers’ extent
of integration of technology in the educational instruction in the
different curriculum content of Science and the level of students’
interest in learning. The study employed a quantitative
descriptive correlational and descriptive comparative design.
Researcher-made questionnaires were used in data gathering.
The study involved twenty (21) Grade 10 Science teachers and
five hundred twenty five (525) Grade 10 students handled by the
teachers. The study used purposive sampling technique in the
selection of teachers and non-probability convenience sampling
in the selection of students. The study was conducted in nine (9)
public secondary schools in the First Congressional District in
the Division of Quezon City. Data were analyzed using
descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings of the study
indicate that science teachers integrated technology in teaching
their subject to a moderate extent. The study also showed that
the students’ level of interest in the different characteristics
observed varied from moderate to high. Likewise, the results of
the study revealed that the teachers’ extent of technology
integration in the educational instruction had a relationship with
the level of students’ interest in learning.
