Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 24, Issue 1
Abstract
This study investigated the teacher’s competence of technology on elementary school teachers' computer competence and its consequent effect on teaching effectiveness on the elementary school teachers within the Sierra Bullones district during the academic year 2023-2024. The research explores the demographic profile of teachers, their computer competencies, teaching effectiveness, the relationship between computer competencies and teaching effectiveness, and proposes action plans based on the findings. Findings from the study reveal that most respondents fall within the age range of 41 to 50 years, predominantly female, with moderate teaching experience, and lower educational attainment. Teachers demonstrated proficiency in using office and teaching productivity tools, facilitating equitable access to technology, and applying technology to foster higher-order thinking skills and creativity among students. Furthermore, the study establishes a strong positive relationship between technology use and computer competence, as well as a significant association between computer competence and teaching effectiveness. In conclusion, the research underscores the significant impact of technology on teachers' computer competence and subsequent teaching effectiveness. Recommendations include implementing ongoing professional development programs, ensuring access to resources and technical support, fostering collaboration among teachers, and establishing mechanisms for evaluating and providing feedback on computer competence. By adhering to these recommendations, educational institutions can effectively enhance teachers' computer competence and improve teaching effectiveness, ultimately enriching the learning experiences of students in the digital age.
