ABSTRACT

This study aimed to determine the effect of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) integration in enhancing the pupils’ performance in Elementary Science. A total of 80 respondents were selected among Grade III pupils at Miputak East Central School, Miputak Dipolog City. This study was employed quantitative approach with the pre-test post-test experimental design. Pupils were classified into two groups namely the Experimental Group (teaching with ICT integration) and the Control Group (teaching without ICT integration). The ttest showed the performance of pupils from the Experimental Group had higher increased in posttest than the Control group. This concluded that integration of ICT in Science lessons affected pupils’ performance. This study is also attempted to determine the significant difference in the pupils’ performance in Science with or without ICT integration. Both groups showed improvement in their post-test. However, the Experimental Group revealed higher level of performance compared to the Control Group. The findings showed that ICT integration in Science lessons enhanced pupils’ performance than without ICT integration. Based on the findings, several action plans have been made to provide some insights into the application of ICT integration in Science subject.
