VIDEO DOCUMENTARY PRODUCTION: TECHNIQUE IN TEACHING READINGS IN PHILIPPINE HISTORY

The study aimed to assess student performance, follow how the videos were produced, evaluate the approach, identify issues, and detail potential improvements. To continue, educators embraced online training, online learning, evaluating students, and conducting surveys. Students participated in the whole process, researching, writing the script, and editing, which made it both useful for learning and for assessing them. Findings showed that students were more engaged and understood what they learned, as seen from their test results and statements, proving that more meaningful and active learning through technology has real value, especially during the pandemic. Because of the project, students received a good education and learned to use tech tools, and the produced documentaries were kept as educational resources for future use. Despite the drawbacks of expensive production, not enough skilled employees, limited time, and weak electricity and internet links, the study suggests offering more training, greater support from institutions, and creative strategies. All in all, using documentaries in history classes encouraged creativity, teamwork, and critical thinking in students.
