Teaching the Net Generation:
Curriculum, Pedagogy and the Challenge
of 21st Century Learning
10 to 11 September Cebu City, Philippines
TITLE:
Weblinks Integration to Teaching Strategies
(WITS) in Advanced Chemistry Subject
of Cordillera Regional Science High School
AUTHOR’S NAME: ETHIELYN E. TAQUED
Science Teacher
Date of Presentation: September 10-11, 2008
Overview
“Chemistry is pretty much interesting and important. It
is all around us all the time.”
We read and understand this statement because of chemical reactions occurring in
our brain.
The main goal of any chemistry intervention is to let students understand
concepts of chemistry to better appreciate the world and be effective in
whatever career they choose.
Tools that…
Emphasize on modeling chemical theories. Molecular level of interaction
Visualize “micro-macro” connection
Visualization animation and video demonstration
Interactive learning activity
Do away with rote memorization and reinforce traditional learning

NEED for good instructional design in Web-
enhanced learning !!! ….ATTENTION!! High schools with
computers connected to the Internet.
Situation: Mastery Level of 85 %-100 %
..below this mark is ……
alarming and frustrating to any
teacher who aims for this standard !
Challenge: an intervention with appropriate and
effective learning activities utilizing carefully
chosen websites from the Web.
Concept formation:
It is to this effect that OTH and Web quest are used as
RBL-ICT Interventions in scaffolding students and to test its
effectiveness in the improvement of the academic
performance of students.

What is : WEB- ENHANCED LEARNING ACTIVITIES (WELA)
Foundation for Information Technology Education and Development
ONLINE TREASURE HUNT
Online Inquiry Based
Active learning, exposure with various learning materials, develops reading skills,
and varied presentation of topics.
Analysis and synthesis to integrate learned truths to real life situations.
WEBQUEST
Online Inquiry based Activity
Creates product/ output
Go on a mission with open ended question
Involves a Process to accomplish a task
Promotes authentic learning through guided experience
Develops ICT literacy and higher order thinking skills

Preparations
1. Computer Laboratory- make sure that all computers are working.
2. Grouping the students – pair with someone they have not
worked with
3. Orientation – explain the activity , the responsible use of the e-
net and other scaffolding tools
4. Rubrics – how they will be graded
5. Work within time frame – Use time allotted for the class
6. Evaluation - comment/critique output

The Study:: Weblinks Integration in Teaching Strategies (WITS)
in Advanced Chemistry Subject of
Cordillera Regional Science High School
2007-2008
Objectives:
To look into the effect of Web Enhanced Learning Strategies (WITS) in the The TASK:
performance of Chemistry II students on Solubility and Thermo Chemistry in Online Treasure Hunt
terms of the following: WebQuest
a. Mastery Level (MPS) Online Treasure Hunt 08-09
b. Retention Rate (%)
To find out problem/s encountered in implementing the (WITS )Strategy ICT Tools:
MSWord, PowerPoint, Internet
The Design:
Experimental Group
Entire class of Fourth year- Alpha with twenty two
(22) students served as the EXPERIMENTAL) group.
(WITH WITS)
Control Group
Entire Twenty two (22) fourth year Beta
students served as the CONTROL group with the
Traditional Method (WITHOUT WITS).

INSIGHTS
The information derived from the Action
Research is relevant to integrate WITS
particularly OTH and Webquest to teaching
and learning processes in Chemistry II
within and across competencies.
Furthermore, this can be recommended for
integration in other learning areas to enhance
the Traditional discussion method.
