ACTION RESEARCH
I. SITUATION: Students become less interested with a lesson using traditional approach
and encountered difficulty to understand some lessons in Science Grade 7 despite of the
teacher’s proficiency, mastery, and methodology used.
II. PROBLEM: How to improve students motivation, personalize learning and enhance
students.
Possible Causes:
1. Students became bored with traditional methods of teaching (e.g. lecture
method, chalk-talk method).
2. Short attention span of the student.
3. Language and terminological difficulty and culture diversity.
4. Digital exclusion or less access to information due to geographic, social, and
other factors.
5. Lack of relevant teaching and learning resources.
RESULT
Students got higher performance level (PL) in the lessons to which ICT is integrated
compared to the PL using traditional method of teaching to which ICT is not
integrated.
This confirms that the ICT integration in classroom teaching is effective in
enhancing students learning.
The use of ICT for learning activities has a powerful impact on the students’
learning because it allows the students to interact to the lesson in a wider
perspective.
The integration of ICT in teaching enables the teacher and the student to have
greater access to information.
This suggest that successful ICT integration is clearly related to actions taken by
the teacher, such as the development of an ICT plan, ICT support, and ICT training
for teachers.
This study prove that ICT provides learning spaces and opportunity for lifelong
learning
Based on the result and interviews with students is being concluded that the use
of ICT is necessary to be able to realize the desirable education. This study also obliges
other teachers to reflect about the specific ICT competencies and intend them to plan
and integrated ICT in their lessons. This information gave the impression that the
5
implementation of ICT in education will succeed merely with well-motivated and capable
teachers.
In the lesson evaluation to which ICT is not integrated, the mean was 7.88. In the
lesson to which ICT is integrated, the mean is 13.78 with the significant increase of 5.90.
