The Effect of Educational Videos on Literacy Skills among Kindergarten Learners

This study examined the effect of educational videos on letter recognition among kindergarten learners as a basis for developing a Multimedia Based Literacy Skills Enhancement Plan. Specifically, it sought to determine the demographic profile of the respondents, the extent of educational video integration in literacy instruction, the level of letter recognition among kindergarten learners, the challenges encountered by teachers in integrating educational videos, and the relationship between educational video integration and learners' letter recognition skills.The study employed a descriptive correlational research design. The respondents were kindergarten teachers from Mabolo Elementary School, selected through total enumeration and quota sampling techniques. Data was gathered using an adapted and validated survey questionnaire based on Creswell and Creswell. Statistical treatment included frequency count, percentage, weighted mean, and correlation analysis.Findings revealed that educational videos were frequently integrated into kindergarten literacy instruction and were effective in enhancing learners' letter recognition skills. However, teachers encountered challenges related to limited technological resources, insufficient training in multimedia based instruction, classroom management concerns, and inadequate institutional support. The results further showed a significant relationship between the extent of educational video integration and the level of letter recognition among kindergarten learners.The study concludes that educational videos are effective instructional tools in improving letter recognition when systematically integrated into early childhood literacy instruction. It is recommended that schools implement a Multimedia Based Literacy Skills Enhancement Plan, strengthen teacher training on multimedia pedagogy, and improve access to appropriate technological resources to support effective literacy instruction.
