The integration of technology in education has enhanced teaching practices and learner participation in classrooms. This study examined the use of multimedia-assisted instruction and its effectiveness in promoting learner engagement among public elementary school teachers in Castillejos District, Zambales. Specifically, it determined the extent of multimedia-assisted instruction use and its effectiveness in behavioral, emotional, cognitive, and social engagement among learners. The study is significant in providing insights into the role of multimedia tools in improving teaching and learning processes. A descriptive–quantitative research design was utilized using a structured survey questionnaire administered to 165 randomly selected public elementary school teachers. Data were analyzed using frequency, weighted mean, standard deviation, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), and Pearson-r correlation. Findings revealed that teachers highly utilized multimedia-assisted instruction and perceived it as highly effective in promoting learner engagement. No significant differences were found when respondents were grouped according to profile variables. However, a significant positive relationship existed between multimedia-assisted instruction and learner engagement, indicating that effective multimedia integration enhances student participation and involvement in learning. The study concluded that multimedia-assisted instruction is an effective tool in improving learner engagement in elementary education. It is recommended that schools strengthen teacher training on multimedia integration and provide adequate technological resources to support effective instruction.
