Description
Summary:<p>This study determines the effectiveness of digital learning materials on students</p><p>academic achievement and motivation in the topic Geometry. The research</p><p>design is quasi-experimental. A sample of 60 participants out of 200 target</p><p>populations were carefully chosen using cluster probability sampling. A threeweek</p><p>intervention was carried out. The instruments used are a set of pre-test and</p><p>post-test on the topic Geometry. The motivation survey that was given to the</p><p>treatment group only. A descriptive analysis was used to describe students</p><p>achievement on the geometry topic, while an independent t-test was used to</p><p>determine the differences between the two teaching strategies the digital</p><p>learning and the conventional learning. The survey was designed to measure the</p><p>extent of students' motivation after using the developed digital learning materials</p><p>and also analyzed through descriptive statistics. Meanwhile the correlation</p><p>coefficient is revealing the relationship between digital learning materials and</p><p>students' motivation. The finding shows that there is a significant correlation</p><p>between digital learning materials and students achievement and motivation in</p><p>the topic geometry. It can be concluded that the use of digital learning materials</p><p>remains very pertinent in the teaching and learning process of students in the</p><p>world in order to help students study at their own convenience and especially</p><p>during the world pandemic. The study also recommended that managers of</p><p>schools should augment on the budget for digital learning materials in order to</p><p>cater a teaching platform that allows students to meet their teachers, make a</p><p>discussion, watch videos, play educational games, do interactive practicing, and</p><p>presentations about the concepts from their Geometry books. These digital</p><p>learning materials have to be manipulated according to students needs to help</p><p>them understand and learn concepts in Geometry. The implication of the study</p><p>shows that the developed digital learning materials can be used as a teaching aid</p><p>in improving students' understanding and motivation towards Geometry.</p>
