Research Questions

The study had the following three questions:

What is the effect of educational technology on students' achievement?

What is the effect of educational technology on overall climate of the school?

What is the effect of educational technology on cost efficacy in the context of our national school?

Hypothesis

The hypothesis of the study is testing through various methods of statistics including the correlation. The correlation of the study was found to be strong. This relationship was moderately strong for the General Science category but it was very weak for chemistry and biology. It was concluded that the academic category of math 0.76 effect sizes and other subjects' category had 0.80 effect size.

Null Hypothesis

There is a positive effect of educational technology on students' achievement.

There is a positive of effect of educational technology on overall climate of the school.

There is a positive effect of educational technology on cost efficacy in the context of our national school.

Alternate Hypothesis

There is a negative effect of educational technology on students' achievement.

There is a negative of effect of educational technology on overall climate of the school.

There is a negative effect of educational technology on cost efficacy in the context of our national school.
