Abstract:
Education today, has taken a new dimension because of globalization and then newly emerging technologies that has affected the demand and the way people do things. In the Contemporary society, predictions about life and work for coming decades are supposed to be made as a team through universal agreement and collaboration. Individuals are expected to move through several careers in the course of a lifetime.rn rnIn the 21st century, what matters most is the ability to create through effective use of technology and knowledge. Teachers and the learners as well as other professionals, must now incorporate the Technology Literacy which is the ability to use new media such as the internet to effectively access and communicate information in enhancing our knowledge and critical thinking skills.rnrnThe pandemic has resulted in enormous learning gaps for students nationwide. Teachers presently struggle to meet students where they are while simultaneously helping them close the pandemic-related learning gap. In order to meet the requirements of our various learners, teachers must use effective teaching tactics and procedures, particularly in the contemporary environment of the "new normal education."rnrnThe period leading up to the start of the new school year can be used to reinvent education, with teachers implementing intervention techniques to narrow the achievement gaps. This led the researcher in conducting the research entitled, "Enhancing the Learning Performance of Grade 8 Learners in Computer Systems Servicing Through WebQuest.rnrnThis study aimed to enhance the learning performance of Grade 8 learners in Computer Systems Servicing through WebQuest. The researcher used quasi- experimental research and was conducted at Judge Jose De Venecia Sr. Technical- Vocational Secondary School in November 2023 to January 2023 covering the 2nd quarter period of the school year 2022- 2023.rnrnThe research involved two sections of Grade 8 learners who are currently enrolled in Computer Systems Servicing 8. One (1) group of 48 students was taught through the traditional approach which is discussion and modular learning while the other group off 44 students was taught using WebQuest approach. Students were tested on their performance in setting- up computer network as one of the core competencies in CSS 8.rnrnTo determine the level of performance of Grade 8 CSS learners using WebQuest, data from the results of the pretest and posttest were collected. Using the validated teacher- made test, the T- test was utilized to assess the data from the posttest.rnrnThe students\' understanding and knowledge were definitely improved and enhanced after finishing the study. Results of the data through mean scores revealed that the performance learners to both groups increased from pretest to posttest. The pretest mean scores of the experimental group who were taught using WebQuest increased form 9.80 mean score in the pretest to 23.84 in the posttest. There was as improvement of 14.04 points. For the control group, the mean scores are 14.88 and 19.38 in the pretest and posttest.rnrnThe T-test statistical technique was used to determine the significant difference between the two groups of learners. Results showed that the obtained t value was of the experimental group is 34.59 higher that the control group.-G.P. Mejia
