Keywords:

This study aims to describe the effectiveness of the teaching strategy, Web-videos Time, among five intact classes of Grade 7 students. Students’ performance was measured by their scores in formative and summative assessments. A 10-item survey questionnaire was given to measure students’ perception of how Web-videos Time help in learning. The quantitative data gathered was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Student self-evaluations and open-ended questionnaires were given to collect students’ perceptions of how Web-videos Time affects their learning and performance. Thematic analysis was used to analyze students’ responses. The results of formative and summative assessments yielded an average of 86.14 and 87.17, respectively. The averages indicate proficiency based on the La Salle Green Hills (LSGH) Assessment Evaluation used by the LSGH Academic Cluster. The research also found that students perceive web videos to be visually entertaining and informative. This matches the survey results that 72% of students strongly agree that web videos were useful in understanding topics in Asian History and contributed to gaining important knowledge about the subject.
