Abstract

The study aimed to determine the technology readiness on students behavior and engagement of selected senior high school students of Laguna Senior High School and Laguna University Senior High School Santa Cruz, Laguna, Academic Year 2022-2023. It determined the teachers technology readiness in terms of devices capability, technology skills, self-direct learning, and students behavior and engagement in terms of social, cognitive, creative, collaborative learning, active learnin,g and gamification. This study employed a descriptive design and a simple random sampling technique. It involved 150 senior high school students of LSPU SCC and LUSHS.  A survey questionnaire and an interview were used as the main instrument in obtaining the pertinent information. A rating scale and rubric were used in determining the level of technology readiness of the teachers and students. The data were treated using statistical treatments: Mean, Standard Deviation, and Multiple Regression Analysis.                 The researcher found that the level of Device Capability, Technology Skills, and Self-direct Learning of technology Readiness was observed to have a significant relationship to the students behavior. This is based on the computed r values obtained from the tests with the weak relationship. Furthermore, the p-values obtained were less than the significance alpha 0.05, hence there is a significance.                 The researcher also found that the level of Device Capability, Technology Skills, and Self-direct Learning of Technology Readiness was observed to have a significant relationship to the students engagement. This is based on the computed r values obtained from the tests with the weak relationship. Furthermore, the p-values obtained were less than the significance alpha 0.05, hence there is a significance.                 The findings show that we can infer that at 0.05 level of significance, the null hypothesis “There is no significant relationship between the technology readiness and students engagement” is rejected. Thus, the alternative should be accepted which incites that there is a significant relationship between them.                 The teachers readiness for technology is one of the great assets that can help our students to engage more in the learning process, the above findings show that the teacher must possess different sets of abilities like device capabilities, and technology skills and can initiate self-directing cognitive and creativity in the learning process and students engagement in terms of collaborative learning, active learning, and gamification.
