Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis investigates the impact of technology integration on economics education among high school students. The study aims to explore how the use of technology, particularly digital tools and resources, influences the learning outcomes and engagement levels of students in economics education. A case study approach is employed to examine this phenomenon within the context of high school classrooms. The research methodology includes qualitative data collection methods such as interviews, observations, and document analysis to gather insights from teachers and students. The literature review highlights the importance of integrating technology in education and its potential benefits for enhancing student learning experiences. Various theoretical frameworks and models related to technology integration and economics education are discussed to provide a theoretical foundation for the study. The review also examines previous research studies that have explored the impact of technology on student achievement and engagement in the field of economics education. In the research methodology chapter, the study details the data collection process, sampling technique, and data analysis methods used to investigate the research questions. The study involves high school students and teachers in economics classrooms, with a focus on understanding their perspectives on the use of technology for teaching and learning economics concepts. The research design allows for a comprehensive exploration of the impact of technology integration on student learning outcomes and engagement levels. The findings chapter presents the results of the study, including themes and patterns that emerged from the data analysis. The findings reveal insights into how technology is currently being used in economics education, the perceived benefits and challenges of technology integration, and the impact of technology on student learning outcomes. The discussion of findings chapter interprets the results in relation to existing literature and theoretical frameworks, providing a deeper understanding of the implications of technology integration for economics education. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to the existing body of knowledge on the impact of technology integration on economics education. The study offers valuable insights for educators, policymakers, and researchers interested in enhancing economics education through the effective use of technology. The findings highlight the importance of thoughtful integration of technology in the classroom to support student learning and engagement in economics education. Further research is recommended to explore additional factors that may influence the effectiveness of technology integration in economics education among high school students.
