The Impact of Technology Instruction Training Workshop to School Heads of Ministry of Basic, Higher and Technical Education (MBHTE) In Sulu

This study examined how school administrators in Sulu's Ministry of Basic, Higher, and Technical Education (MBHTE) were affected by a training workshop on technology instruction. Using a descriptive research design with purposive sampling, the study was directed by three specific questions and one hypothesis. Eighty MBHTE-Sulu school heads took part in the survey. A structured questionnaire that was given out during the training workshop at the Sulu State College Gym was used to gather data. The collected data was processed using statistical analyses such as frequency distribution, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, and ANOVA.
