The findings demonstrated the importance of understanding the Utilization of Technology-Aided Strategies, when it comes to teaching Social Science. In order to make sure that the right tools and materials were available for them to work with, teachers should be aware of the profiles and learning styles of the learners. The teaching and learning process should be improved by teachers and school officials, boosting its effectiveness and efficiency.
