Background of the Study

 

            In this age of technological growth, a growing belief that technology has an important role in motivating the students to learn, to enjoy learning and to want to learn more about mathematics. Most teachers including the researcher recognize that visual and interactive features of many technology resources indeed effectively help focus students’ attention and encourage them to spend more time on learning tasks. Substantial evidence indicates that the teacher frequently and beneficially capitalize on the TV-like attraction of different media to achieve the essential goals of capturing and holding the students attention. Kozma (1991) points out that different media possess different attributes on characteristics. Learner may capitalize on benefit from the particular attribute of a medium while constructing meaning from an instructional message. Hence, every teacher has to think of an alternative that may enhance the teaching-learning process through projective style of teaching aside from the commonly practiced method, the traditional which is no longer applicable in the huge class sizes.

            Moreover, the use of modern instructional media has been widely used. Now that many schools has acquired equipment and devices like computers, Over Head Projector (OHP), Compact Disk Ran On Memory (CD ROMS), video film and any time used of multimedia projector through the assistance from the provincial board, facilitating the lesson can be done easier and convenient to the teacher and students as well.
