Abstract
This study explores the impact of MATHeractive 5: Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) on developing the mathematical skills of Grade 5 learners in Malibo Bata Elementary School. This study is conducted in response to the low proficiency levels of Filipino learners in mathematics, as reflected in both the “2018 Programe for International Student Assessment (PISA)” and the result of the school-based pretest of Project All Numerates. This research introduces an intervention designed to bridge learning gaps through interactive and technology-driven methods using real-life scenarios. MATHeractive 5: Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) includes activities that enhance conceptual understanding and practical application in topics such as Area of a Circle, Volume of Solids, Temperature, Line Graphs, and Probability. Using mixed-methods explanatory sequential research design, the study analyzed quantitative data from pretests and posttests, followed by qualitative interviews to provide deeper insights. Twenty-four learners were purposively selected, divided into control and experimental groups. Statistical analyses, including the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test and rank-biserial correlation, confirmed the intervention's significant positive effects. The experimental group showed a significant improvement, with mean percentage scores rising to 90.4%, categorized as high mastery. Furthermore, learner perceptions underscored the value of the interactive learning material in promoting engagement, confidence, and mastery. The findings highlight the potential of technology-enhanced learning tools like MATHeractive 5: Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) in improving mathematics performance. Thus, it is highly recommended to integrate into educational practices to address foundational learning gaps and foster long-term academic success.
