The Achievement of Students at Bucal National High School. in_ Various Levels of Mathematical Learning Tasks in Mathematics IV as Influenced by the Use of Graphics Calculators. Adviser: Dr. Cecilia B. Banaag. This study was conducted to determine the relative effects of using the graphics calculator on students’ achievement in various levels of mathematical learning tasks in Mathematics IV of Bucal National High School Special Science Curriculum (SSC) and New Secondary Education Curriculum (NSEC) for the school year 2001-2002. Specifically, it aimed to determine the: 1) SSC 1.1) control group’s pretest and experimental group’s pretest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 1.2) control group’s posttest and experimental group's posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 1.3) control group’s pretest and posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 1.4) experimental group’s pretest and posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; and !.5) control and experimental groups gain in scores; and 2) NSEC 2.1) control and experimental groups in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition 2.2) control and experimental groups posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 2.3) control group’s pretest and posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 2.4) experimental group’s pretest and posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; and 2.5) control and experimental groups. The Randomized Pretest-Posttest Experimental Design was employed as the research method of the study. Both the control and experimental groups were given a pretest and a post test in between the actual experiment. To obtain the desired data. Likewise, the students' mental abilities were used to establish comparability between the control and experimental groups in either program. The respondents involved 78 SSC students and 100 NSEC pupils in Mathematics IV Bucal National High School. The statistical tests employed were the t — test for both independent and dependent sample means. After analyzing and interpreting the data, the following findings were revealed: The control and experimental groups were initially comparable in the various levels of learning task comprehension, application and higher level of cognition for both the SSC and NSEC. In either program, the control and experimental groups made no marked differences in their posttest achievement tests as proven by their overall performances. The SSC control group showed significant differences between their pretest and posttest achievement that results in all levels of learning tasks The result of which were similar to that of the NSEC control group. When the pretest, posttest achievement test result were compared, the SSC and NSEC experimental groups differed significantly in all levels of learning tasks. The students’ achievement in either program revealed no significant differences between the control and experimental groups. This indicates that the students taught using the graphics calculator performed just as well as those taught using the traditional pencil-paper method using scientific calculators.

This study was conducted to determine the relative effects of using the graphics calculator on students’ achievement in various levels of mathematical learning tasks in Mathematics IV of Bucal National High School Special Science Curriculum (SSC) and New Secondary Education Curriculum (NSEC) for the school year 2001-2002.

Specifically, it aimed to determine the: 1) SSC 1.1) control group’s pretest and experimental group’s pretest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 1.2) control group’s posttest and experimental group's posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 1.3) control group’s pretest and posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 1.4) experimental group’s pretest and posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; and !.5) control and experimental groups gain in scores; and 2) NSEC 2.1) control and experimental groups in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition 2.2) control and experimental groups posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 2.3) control group’s pretest and posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; 2.4) experimental group’s pretest and posttest in knowledge, comprehension, application and higher level of cognition; and 2.5) control and experimental groups.

The Randomized Pretest-Posttest Experimental Design was employed as the research method of the study. Both the control and experimental groups were given a pretest and a post test in between the actual experiment. To obtain the desired data. Likewise, the students' mental abilities were used to establish comparability between the control and experimental groups in either program. The respondents involved 78 SSC students and 100 NSEC pupils in Mathematics IV Bucal National High School. The statistical tests employed were the t — test for both independent and dependent sample means.

After analyzing and interpreting the data, the following findings were revealed:

The control and experimental groups were initially comparable in the various levels of learning task comprehension, application and higher level of cognition for both the SSC and NSEC.

In either program, the control and experimental groups made no marked differences in their posttest achievement tests as proven by their overall performances.

The SSC control group showed significant differences between their pretest and posttest achievement that results in all levels of learning tasks The result of which were similar to that of the NSEC control group.

When the pretest, posttest achievement test result were compared, the SSC and NSEC experimental groups differed significantly in all levels of learning tasks.

The students’ achievement in either program revealed no significant differences between the control and experimental groups. This indicates that the students taught using the graphics calculator performed just as well as those taught using the traditional pencil-paper method using scientific calculators.
