Abstract:
This study delves into the influence of technology integration on the Senior High School Curriculum on learners' academic achievement. The study aims to assess the perception of learners and educators on the use of technology as part of the teaching-learning process. The learners' academic achievement, particularly the general weighted average for a specific semester, is evaluated further to assess the influence of technology on the curriculum. This study proposes an intervention to improve both learner's and teachers' ICT integration, skills, and literacy. The study concentrates on students and teachers from Private Senior High School Institutions in the Municipality of Plaridel, Bulacan. The use of standardized questionnaires is evident in the data collection process, whereas it consists of questions about perceptions of learners and teachers on technology integration. Data on semestral general average are obtained to correlate the influence of technology on students' academic achievement. Previous studies reveal no substantial relationship between technology integration and academic achievement, while some studies contradict this statement. This urges the researcher to investigate this research gap further. The results and findings of the study show that the learners and teachers positively perceive technology integration in the teaching-learning process. Based on the semestral grades obtained by this research, there is a correlation between the two research concepts presented in this paper. Therefore, it rejected the null hypothesis and proved that technology integration significantly affects the student's academic achievement. This study proposes a technology literacy program for private SHS schools in Plaridel, Bulacan.
