Abstract:
PowerPoint Presentation (PPT) is a common instructional software or program used by teachers in ICT-rich classrooms. However, many public schools in the country still lack or have insufficient access to ICT resources. Therefore, this study sought to assess the effectiveness PowerPaper Presentation (PPP). PowerPaper Presentation is a teacher-designed low-cost and low-tech innovative alternative to PowerPoint Presentation in promoting student learning of selected topic in Science 5 using a quasi-experimental method that adopted the pre-test-post-test design. Three groups of student participants from selected public elementary schools totaling 136 participated in the study composed of 45 students constituting the control group from Corazon C. Aquino Elementary School, 46 students serving as experimental group A from Bagong Pag-Asa Elementary School Annex, and 45 students serving as experimental group B from San Juan Elementary School Annex from the Division of Rizal. The intervention was like teaching a selected topic in Science 5 using PowerPaper Presentation for the experimental groups and without PowerPaper Presentation for the control group. First, a pre-test was administered to the three groups before the teaching process. Then, the same test was issued as a post-test after the teaching process. Finally, the results were statistically analyzed. Analysis of the pre-test results using one-way analysis of variance revealed no significant differences in the pre-test scores of the control group and the two experimental groups. However, as regards the post-test results, analysis of variance revealed that the post-test scores of the two experimental groups are statistically comparable. In contrast, the post-test scores of the control group are significantly lower than the experimental groups. Furthermore, the normalized learning gains of the two experimental groups, while statistically comparable, are substantially higher than the learning gains of the control group. These results imply that PowerPaper Presentation significantly improved students’ learning of the selected topic in Science 5
