Comparative Analysis Between the Integration of Technology & Physical Engagement of Students on Tinikling Dance

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Tinikling, a traditional dance from the Philippines, that the respondents from Grade 10 Froilan pupils engaged in, which they will find out which is more effective in transmitting knowledge. The researchers used a qualitative descriptive method to analyze the data. The researcher used a survey interview to gather students ' responses in analyzing the study's outcome and through an observational survey in which the researchers observed the students ' level of performance. The researchers showed a video clip on how to perform some of the basic steps in Tinikling twice using a TV screen and a speaker, and then they were told to perform the steps taught in the video. In the second part of the implementation, the researchers taught the students how to perform some of the basic steps of the Tinikling dance using a part-whole method with guided practice. The researchers observed that students learn more in guided practice and create good communication with the behavioral attitude of the students. The result of the implementation is that the actual demonstration of teachers with guided practice has a more significant effect on students' learning development than using technology in the classroom in teaching dances. For further studies, the researchers recommend that further study using a quantitative method should be utilized to support our study.
