Changing Aspects In E-Classroom And The Teachers’ Experiences: Aboost In Management Program

E-classroom is the new trend while other schools are still adopting the traditional way of promoting learning among learners. Designed to facilitate students’ learning, simulated circumstances in most activities in e-classrooms will definitely help the learners to apply them in real life. In public elementary schools, each e-classroom is assigned with one (1) ICT coordinator. Its regulation is dependent on each school and the principal plays a vital role in implementing them. The researcher observed that most of the teachers preferred to use printed modules rather than having online instructions because they have difficulty in preparing their instructional materials using the computer and it follows that not all can use the e-classroom. The researcher further experienced difficulty in using the e-classroom because of the lack of training and exposure to technology and the learners can only do so much with technology like playing video games rather than using Microsoft applications like Word, Excel, PowerPoint and many others. Through mixed method research design, the results of the current study can be deduced that e-classroom could potentially shape the future of education by advancing the traditional classroom setting into the web. The use of e-classroom has dramatically increased over the years as teachers perceived its usefulness and felt the impact of e-classroom to their teaching methodologies and learning styles. Although there are some hurdles along the way, but through strategizing e-classroom approaches, things can be addressed and e-classroom utilization and management can optimally benefit teachers and learners. Therefore, there is a need for the entire academic community to ensure that the factors of e-classroom effectiveness are delivered adequately and the utilization of e-classrooms must be evaluated regularly. Thus, e-classrooms offer a range of advantages that make them equally important in today’s educational landscape.
