Effectiveness of video presentation in teaching mathematics

Thesis (Bachelor of Elementary Education major in Preschool Education) -- University of Rizal System-Morong.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of video presentation in teaching mathematics for kindergarten pupils of University of Rizal System-Laboratory Department during the School year 2014-2015. This study used descriptive developmental and experimental methods of research with a researchers-made questionnaire as a main tool in gathering data. In terms acceptability of the video presentation, mean was used: to determine the level of performance of the control and experimental groups, mean and standard deviation were used; to find the significant difference on the level of performance of the control and experimental groups as revealed by their pretest and posttest results with respect to the different lessons the researchers used the independent t-test; and lastly, to determine the significant difference on the level of performance of the experimental group as revealed by their posttest results the dependent t-test was used. The results described that the developed video presentation in teaching Mathematics for kindergarten pupils is highly acceptable by the respondents. Furthermore, there is a significant difference on the level of performance of kindergarten pupils in the control group as revealed by the pretest and posttest results in terms of size and height since the computed p-value of 0.048 and 0.008 respectively are less than 0.05 level of significance. Also, there is significant difference on the level of performance of kindergarten pupils in the experimental group as revealed by pretest and posttest results since the computed p-value of 0.0000 and 0.0001 respectively are less than 0.05 level of significance. However, there is no significant difference on the level of performance of kindergarten pupils in control and experimental groups as revealed by the posttest result in terms of size since the computed p-value is 0.095 which is greater than 0.05 level of significance. The researcher concluded that the developed video presentation is highly acceptable in terms of objectives, content, format and style and language used; the developed video presentation is an effective tool in teaching Mathematics for kindergarten pupils; the developed video presentation can be used as an appropriate materials in teaching "Height" for kindergarten pupils. Based on the findings and conclusion the researchers recommended to exposed kindergarten pupils to different video presentations to enhance learning on the different topics; develop other video presentations which focus on other subject areas; and conduct other studies on video presentation utilizing other grade levels and considering other variables.
