The Role of Technology Integration in Enhancing Secondary Mathematics Achievement

Abstract

This study conducted at a National High School in Minglanilla, Cebu, Philippines during the 2023–2024 school year, examined the role of technology integration in enhancing secondary mathematics achievement among Senior High School students. Utilizing a descriptive method, the research sampled 50 senior high school students and five Mathematics teachers, using instruments adapted from the Department of Education’s Central Office Learning Modules and Mathematics Learning Materials. It assessed technology's applicability across specific mathematics competencies, pre-test and post-test scores, and challenges in teaching Probability and Statistics. Findings showed that technology integration was rated as "Utilized," effectively boosting engagement and motivation, though there was no significant correlation between the extent of technology use and students' academic performance. Most students achieved satisfactory grades, suggesting that while technology supports engagement, it may not directly improve academic outcomes. The study recommends an action plan focused on strategic implementation, teacher development, and collaborative learning to enhance the impact of technology integration on academic performance.
