This action research aimed to assess the proficiency level of teachers in using
multimedia tools and develop an intervention plan to enhance their skills at Maltana
National High School (MNHS). The study utilized a mixed-method approach,
employing a Descriptive Research Design to gather both quantitative and qualitative
data. The research instrument consisted of an online survey questionnaire via Google
Form, which assessed teachers' proficiency in multimedia tools and solicited their
opinions and suggestions. The findings revealed varying levels of proficiency among
teachers, highlighting the need for targeted intervention programs. Based on the
results, an action plan titled "Multimedia Tool Proficiency: A Competency Needs
Analysis Among Teachers of MNHS" was developed to address the identified needs.
This study provides valuable insights for school administrators, teachers, researchers,
and future educators, emphasizing the importance of ongoing professional
development in utilizing multimedia tools effectively for teaching and learning.
INTRODUCTION
The use of multimedia has claimed or has been claiming for a significant period
of time as an integral part in the process of imparting as well as perceiving lessons in
classroom. The new teaching method labors to make the lesson visualize by the students
avoiding image construction in brains while receiving pictorial description in a text
through listening and producing. A learner can visualize which enables a lesson more
intelligible and durable as Penuel et al. (2000)
Additionally, according to only (Chen and Liu, 2008; Mayer, 2008). Multimedia
or digital learning resources assist learners to get on well with mental representations
with the use of different media elements, which support information processing.
Information, which is made up of content and sometimes learning activities, are presented
with the use of the combination of text, image, video and audio by digital learning
resources. It has been demonstrated, by research on using multimedia for learning, that
there are more positive results observed in learners who combine picture and words than
those who use words only
According to Chen et al. (2009), incorporating technology and making it part of
the educational environment is one of the foremost responsibilities of educators and
instructors. Vanderlinde and Van Braak, (2011) articulated three main directions to bring
novelty into the education system 1) to make use of the content that can be acclimatized
2) to integrate different teaching skills 3) to get rid of age-old concepts. The modern
requirement to question the insights has been stressed by many scholars. The authors
emphasized that cognizance from the people who are the users of new technological tools
is important for forecasting the efficiency of incorporation in educational setups. Not
only this but the educators’ perceptions and insights towards creativity should be
observed. Clark et al. (2013) drew the conclusion that incorporating creative
technological tools in the educational setups automatically calls for the educators to learn
new skills and practices related to it. Karsenti et al. (2013) stated that it has been
identified that numerous educators and instructors only use the technological tools to
present the material in a digital form and barely focus its intellectually nurturing
approach. Karsenti and Fievez, (2013) survey showed that prior to the experimental
program 70.2% of teachers had never or very rarely’ used any kind of technological tool.
It also showed that 14.5% had used ICT in the class ‘sometimes’ and 15.2% regularly
used technological tools in class. The abovementioned facts bring to light the importance
of equipping the teachers with effective methods with which they can add technological
tools into their teaching routine.
The researcher believes the usefulness of the study's findings will be of great
