Abstract :
Information and Communications Technology
(ICT) has transformed the traditional classroom into an
innovative educational resource. It has converted
everybody’s needs to electronic forms, from book to ebook, learning to e-learning, and recently the general
paper-pen tests/exams into the electronic assessment.
Hence, investigating the utilization of mobile applications
with technology-enhanced assessment (TEA) tool can help
teachers enhance their knowledge and skills in using
technology for classroom assessment. The researcher
employed the descriptive research design and IPO
approach in developing the TEA tool. Frequency count,
percentage, and weighted mean was used to analyze and
interpret the gathered data. The study involved 116
grade 5 teachers in the East Unit of the Schools Division
of Ilocos Norte. Results revealed that most teachers have
already earned units in their master's degree, have taught
for 10 years, and have participated in local training and
seminars related to ICT, Assessment, Content and
Classroom management. Among the 10 identified
available mobile applications with the TEA tool, the
teachers sometimes use Kahoot It!, Google Quiz, Plickers,
and Quizziz and they never utilized Quizalize, Socratives,
Poll Everywhere, Quizlet, Padlet, and Edmodo. As to
teachers' level of proficiency in the utilization of mobile
applications with the TEA tool, most of them are at the
Entry Level. The respondents agreed that they encounter
the issues and concerns under accessibility, usability, and
connectivity. The improvement plan is found very highly
valid in addressing teachers' issues and concerns. Hence,
the Improvement Plan on the Utilization of Mobile
Applications with the Technology-enhanced Assessment
(TEA) tool is recommended for possible adoption to help
teachers develop their skills in using ICT for classroom
assessment.
