Attitude Towards Quipper and Basic Computer Skills: Predictors of Science Performance

During the COVID 19 pandemic, most schools implemented flexible learning with the help of the quipper platform due to the suspension of face-to-face classes. The primary purpose of this study was to seek a variable that best predicts pupils’ academic performance in science. The sample size of 102 participants was selected using proportionate stratified random sampling. The descriptive correlational and causal design was employed in this study. Based on the data gathered, Grades 4, 5, and 6 levels have a highly positive overall mean level of pupils’ Attitude towards Quipper regarding references and assignments and uses, respectively. Respondents have a proficient level of computer skills in terms of General Windows, and advanced level on Microsoft Word, Internet and Email, and Excel and Spreadsheet. The level of the Students’ Academic Performance in Science was described as very satisfactory. The Attitude towards Quipper in terms of references and assignments and Computer skills in MS Word has a positive significant relationship to pupils’ academic performance in science. As to the Attitude in uses, Computer skills in MS Word and Computer skills in MS Excel/ Spreadsheet, indicated that these variables are significant predictors with Attitude in uses being the best predictor.
