Impact of Educational Videos on Students’ Understanding of General Physics in Grade 12 Students

In the modern educational world, multimedia resources have become increasingly essential in enhancing student learning and engagement. Among these resources, educational videos have emerged as a powerful tool in enhancing the comprehension of complex subjects, especially general physics. This quantitative study explores the impact of educational videos on students’ learning, specifically focusing on their effectiveness in improving conceptual understanding, problem solving skills and retention of their knowledge. This research aims to know how the use of educational videos helps in improving the academic performance of grade 12 science, technology engineering and mathematics (STEM) students at Young Achievers School of Caloocan, Inc. and whether this tool can serve as an effective way to improve the learning of students.

Through the experiment conducted to the 20 students who were the respondents of this study, the researchers were able to evaluate the impacts of educational videos on the student’s understanding compared to traditional teaching methods. Using the questionnaires, it aims to discover whether the use of educational videos both pre-test and post-test, improves the students’ conceptual understanding, retention of knowledge and problem-solving skills in terms of use of educational video. Not only that, but this study will also be discussing and investigating the certain aspects that hinders a student’s progression in their understanding. The results that were obtained in this study will be used for the sole purpose of enhancing a student’s understanding using educational videos.
