Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2023, Vol 15, Issue 3
Abstract
With the advent of technology, many learners have become dependent on gadgets in terms of entertainment, business, information, communication, etc., including spelling, meaning, and usage of words. The government had spent much to enhance the country's educational system over a long period. Yet, there are still learners, especially the students who are taking education courses, who are poor at using the language, specifically English. The result showed that the majority of the respondents were female (71, or 67.65%), BEEd total of 56 or 69.14%, had the age bracket between 20-21 years old, total of 39 or 48.15%. The grammar score of the respondents showed that only ten were considered as outstanding in their score, and almost one-half of the respondents described as satisfactory while others were described as fair and poor, which has a negative result. The majority of grammar errors and issues reflected most in the spelling correction as rank number one and using of determiners in grammar as rank number two committed by the respondents in writing essays. This study recommends serious pedagogical considerations for the improvement and enhancement of instruction in the academe.
