Presentation Outline Perception of Students on • Introduction Online Homework in • Methodology Integral Calculus and its Relation to • Results and Discussions their Motivation • Conclusion and Recommendation and Performance Valdez, Maderal 3 / 31
Introduction Background of the Study Perception of Students on Online • Teachers are always in the search of better teaching and Homework in Integral learning techniques to keep students engaged and Calculus and its Relation to motivated in class. their Motivation • One emerging technology is the use of online homework and Performance whereby students may be given unlimited chances of Valdez, working on a set of problems that vary in their every Maderal attempt for self-practice. • These are presented in a set-up perceived as more engaging and appropriate to today’s type of learners. • This study explored the perception of Integral Calculus students on taking online homework particularly on the topic integration techniques. 3 / 31
Introduction Homework Perception of Students on Online Homework in It has been a constant practice in math and other subjects to Integral Calculus and provide extra activities, or homework to students with the goal its Relation to their of reinforcing what have been learned in class. Motivation and • These activities are done beyond class hours and usually Performance Valdez, accomplished at home where students can work Maderal independently or with groups of classmates using available and related resources. • In math, these home works typically come in the form of paper-and-pen exercises consisting of problems that were not solved in class 4 / 31
Introduction Online Homework and Schoolbook Perception of • As emphasis on homework type is mentioned, this research Students on Online considered a different type of assessment, referred to as Homework in Integral Online Homework, one that is implemented by means of Calculus and its Relation to the internet. their • The use of internet in an educational setting has become Motivation and more prevalent, since learners nowadays are Performance Valdez, technology-savvy and use the internet whether their Maderal teachers incorporate it in their classes or not. Learning Management System • A learning management system (LMS) is a software application used to carry out e-learning courses. • It is an internet-based means to deliver content with interactive features allowing teachers and students to conduct classes, assessments and correspondence virtually. 5 / 31
Introduction Schoolbook Perception of Students on Online • Many educational settings employ the use of learning Homework in Integral management systems as an extension of the physical Calculus and its Relation to campus. One of which is the Schoolbook. their Motivation and • The most notable features of the Schoolbook are that it Performance allows teachers to upload lessons, tutorial videos and Valdez, Maderal online assessments. • It also has a grade book that reflects grades of students on activities for immediate monitoring. • There are features for chatting, managing the portfolio of student works and gives analytics on the performance and usage of students individually or as a class. 6 / 31
Introduction Motivation and Performance Perception of • Students attitudes including their motivation play a role Students on Online on how they involve themselves in the learning process. Homework in Integral • Pintrich and Schunk defined motivation as the manner Calculus and its Relation to whereby a goal-directed activity is instigated and sustained their (as cited in Tuan,et.al, 2005). They mentioned that Motivation and students will only actively engage in learning tasks once Performance Valdez, they perceive its value and meaning. Maderal • Motivation was categorized according to six factors namely: self-efficacy, active learning strategies, science learning value, performance goal, achievement goal and learning environment stimulation. • A 30-year meta-analysis done by Fan, et. al (2016) gave a synthesis on the homework-achievement in math and science and they found that there is a small yet positive correlation between homework and student achievement in math. 7 / 31
Introduction Motivation and Performance Perception of Students on Online Homework in Integral • Rosario, et.al (2015) in their multi-level modeling study on Calculus and its Relation to homework design highlighted the role of teachers in their Motivation designing the activity and that extension homework gave a and positive impact on the students achievement in math. Performance Valdez, • Sarmiento (2017) examined the perceptions of online Maderal homework in mathematics of accounting and finance using MyOpenMath to administer online home works. Results indicated that the students had a greatly positive perception of online homework and that they became more confident in answering homework. 8 / 31
Introduction Objectives of the Study The objectives of the research were the following: Perception of Students on Online • Determine the motivation level of students towards Homework in Integral mathematics before and after the use of the online Calculus and its Relation to homework system. their Motivation • Determine if there is a significant difference between the and Performance pre-motivation and post-motivation of students. Valdez, Maderal • Determine the perception of students towards online homework system. • Determine the performance of students after using the online homework system. • Correlate the motivation level of students towards math with perception of online homework. • Correlate the performance with perception of online homework. 9 / 31
Methodology Perception of Students on Research Design and Respondents Online Homework in Integral • A quantitative survey method was done to carry out this Calculus and its Relation to research. their Motivation • The subjects of the study were the 127 second year and Performance engineering students at the DLSU-D taking up Integral Valdez, Calculus during the 2nd semester of SY 2016-2017. Maderal • The data gathered were: motivation levels towards mathematics, perceptions of online homework and performance in a teacher-made test in Integral Calculus. • The study took place during the midterm period of the semester where the topic covered was techniques of integration 10 / 31
Methodology Perception of Students on Online Research Design and Respondents Homework in Integral • A total of 5 online home works(10 items, multiple choice) Calculus and its Relation to were given via schoolbook. The activities were designed so their Motivation that students were allowed to do unlimited attempts and Performance within the one-week time frame given for each activity and Valdez, that their best scores out of all attempts were recorded. Maderal • In every attempt of the student timed for one hour, they may get a different set of questions randomly taken from a data base of questions made by the researchers. • Scores were immediately reflected after the attempt and students got to see which questions they answered incorrectly. 11 / 31
Methodology Perception of Students on Stages of the Research Online Homework in • Designing of the online materials: online homework and Integral Calculus and lecture modules. its Relation to their Motivation • Survey on motivation level of students before the use of and Performance online homework. Valdez, • Discussion of the lectures in class and administration of Maderal online homework. • Administration of questionnaire to measure the performance of students on the topic: Techniques of Integration. • Survey on motivation level of students after the use of online homework as well perception on online homework. 12 / 31
