Photomath on Students’ Mathematical Competence: Basis for Delivery Plan Update

This study investigates the impact of PhotoMath on the mathematical competence of Senior High School students at a university in Cebu during the Academic Year 2024–2025 to inform updates to the institution's delivery plan. Using a quasi-experimental design, the research compared the posttest performance of control and experimental groups, analyzing data with means, standard deviations, weighted means, and t-tests. The results showed a significant improvement in the experimental group's performance (M = 29.42, SD = 6.18) compared to the control group (M = 25.82, SD = 6.09; p = 0.017). PhotoMath was also perceived to have a high impact on learning experiences, academic performance, motivation, self-reliance, and AI dependency. The study concludes that PhotoMath effectively enhances mathematical competence and recommends its integration into the delivery plan to improve learning outcomes for General Mathematics.
