CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM AND IT’S BACKGROUND
In the ever-evolving field of Information and Communication Technology (ICT),
programming remains a fundamental skill. Traditional teaching methods, such as
lecture-based instruction and textbook learning, have long been used to impart
programming knowledge. However, with the rapid advancement of technology, modern
approaches—such as project-based learning, online coding platforms, and artificial
intelligence-driven tutors—are being integrated to enhance student learning. But the
question is, what does students can do to balance technology and traditional methods
at the same time? How does this affect their performances in programming?
The Integration of these methods is crucial for ICT students, as it ensures a well-
rounded education that balances theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience.
Traditional methods provide structured learning and fundamental concepts, while
advanced techniques encourage problem-solving, critical thinking, and real-world
application. By combining these approaches, students are better prepared for industry
demands, improving their adaptability and competitiveness in the job market. This
integration also allows educators to cater to different learning styles, making
programming education more inclusive and effective.
Several studies highlight the significance of integrating advanced and traditional
teaching methods to enhance programming skills among ICT students. According to
Felder and Silverman (1988), a combination of active and passive learning strategies
helps accommodate diverse learning styles, improving students’ comprehension and
problem-solving abilities. Similarly, Jenkins (2002) emphasizes that traditional lecture-
based approaches, when supplemented with hands-on activities, foster deeper
understanding and retention of programming concepts. By blending traditional
instructional techniques with modern, technology-driven approaches, educators can
create a more effective learning environment that equips ICT students with the
necessary programming skills to meet industry demands.
This study explores how integrating traditional and advanced teaching methods
enhances ICT students’ programming skills. Using a qualitative research approach,
researchers conducted interviews with ten randomly selected Grade 11 and 12 ICT
students from Santo Domingo Integrated High School. The study examines students’
experiences, challenges, and perceptions of both teaching methods, supported by a
review of related literature. Purposive sampling was used to ensure participants had
relevant knowledge of both approaches. The research aims to assess the effectiveness
of combining these methods in programming education and identify ways to improve
students’ learning experiences and skill development.
Overall, integrating advanced and traditional teaching methods in programming
education can significantly enhance ICT students’ skills, preparing them for the ever-
changing technology landscape. While traditional methods lay a strong theoretical
foundation, advanced techniques provide practical exposure and problem-solving
opportunities. A well-balanced curriculum that leverages the strengths of both
approaches can lead to improved learning outcomes, fostering innovation and
readiness for real-world programming challenges.
THE STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

Major Problem: This study aims to provide insights into the most effective teaching
strategies for programming education, ensuring ICT students develop strong
programing skills and explore how does the integration of advance and traditional
method enhance the skills of the ICT students.

Specific Problem: Specifically, it seeks answers to the following questions.


1. How does the integration of advanced and traditional methods affect ICT students'
programming skills?
2. What are the advantages and challenges of integrating advanced and traditional
methods in enhancing ICT students skills in programming?
3. How do ICT students perceive the effectiveness of integrating advanced and
traditional methods in enhancing their programming skills and overall learning
experience?
THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The purpose of this study is to understand how combining traditional and modern
teaching methods can help ICT students enhance their programming skills. Traditional
methods, like lectures and textbooks, provide a strong foundation, while modern
approaches, such as coding platforms, project-based learning, and AI tools, offer hands-
on experience. By using both, students can learn better and become more prepared for
real-world programming challenges.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY


The importance of this study lies in its potential tol also look at the struggles students
face when trying to balance these two learning methods. It explores whether this mix
makes learning easier or harder and how it affects their performance in programming.
The goal is to find the best way to teach programming so that students get both the
knowledge and practical skills they need. The results will help teachers improve their
teaching methods and make programming education more effective for everyone.
THE SCOPE AND DELIMITATIONS

This paper reports on the blending of advanced and traditional methods toward the
improvement of programming skills for ICT students, with a particular focus on
conventional teaching strategies through lectures and hands-on coding practices and
modern approaches using interactive platforms for coding, AI-assisted programming,
and cloud-based environments for development. This research involves ICT students
from Santo Domingo Integrated High School (SDIHS). It measures how proficient they
are in coding, problem-solving skills, and adopting industry-standard tools. Data was
gathered through interview distribution to Grade 11 & Grade 12 ICT students.

This study focuses on ICT students from a specific grade level. It covers
popular programming languages like Python, Java, and C++ but excludes
specialized ones. It also assumes students have access to all necessary ICT
tools, which may not always be true. The study aims to explore the pros and
cons of combining traditional and modern teaching methods to enhance ICT
students' learning experience.
