The Level of Technology Integration in Teaching Different Subjects in Secondary School

This study aimed to determine the level of technology integration and teachers' preparedness in using technology for teaching different subjects at Bulan National High School (BNHS) during the school year 2024-2025. Given the increasing importance of digital tools in education, the study sought to evaluate the extent of technology use, its impact on student engagement, and the challenges encountered by teachers. The study employed a descriptive research design with a quantitative approach. A total of 50 secondary school teachers participated, representing various subject areas. Data collection involved survey questionnaire that measured the digital tools and applications used, the level of preparedness for technology integration, and the difficulties faced by teachers. The gathered data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Findings revealed that smartphones (frequency 45) were the most commonly used digital tool, while Google Classroom (frequency 15) was the most utilized application. Teachers were found to be moderately prepared for technology integration (mean 3.24). The level of technology integration in teaching was also at a moderate level (mean 3.3), suggesting sporadic use of digital tools. Teachers reported that technology positively influenced student participation. However, the major challenges faced included lack of training (48 respondents) and limited financial resources (48 respondents), along with poor internet connectivity (47 respondents). The results suggest the need for targeted ICT training, budget allocation for digital resources, and improved internet connectivity. Establishing peer-learning communities and implementing monitoring systems can further enhance technology integration. Addressing these challenges through structured training and resource support can significantly improve technology-based teaching and learning at BNHS. Thus, improving academic performance.
