Abstract


The purpose of this study was to assess the extent of utilization of paperless technology by the teachers in Bula District. The respondents of this study were the 204 teachers in the five different schools in Bula District namely: Bula Central Elementary School, Jose Divinagracia Elementary School, Dadiangas East Elementary School, Bula National School of Fisheries and Baluan National High School. A descriptive evaluative research design was utilized in this study. Based on the results of this study, it was revealed that the teachers have perceived that the utilization of paperless technology has been highly useful in grade management and test bank management; however, they found it moderately useful in user management. Nevertheless, the utilization of paperless technology by the teachers was highly recommended to utilized by the teachers. Finally, this study shows educators how paperless technology can reduce teacher workload, save money, and protect the environment while improving the teaching and learning process.
