Abstract

The research study aimed to investigate the relationship between teachers’ technical competence and students’ technical competence in Computer Systems Servicing (CSS) NC II, with the results of the study used as basis for creating an interactive eBook for the Division of La Union. A descriptive-correlational research design was used for the study, with a total of 306 respondents coming from administrators, teachers, and Grade 12 CSS NC II students of selected public senior high schools. The results of the study revealed that teachers possess a very high level of technical competence, and the students also possess a high level of technical competence in all the core competencies of the program. Moreover, the results of the study revealed a very strong and positive significant relationship between teachers’ and students’ technical competence, indicating that as teachers’ technical competence increases, so does the technical competence of the students. The results of the study underscore the significance of teachers’ technical competence in the development of students’ technical skills in competency-based technical-vocational education. Based on the results, an interactive eBook was developed to support competency-based instruction and enhance the teaching–learning process in Computer Systems Servicing NC II.
