Abstract This study, titled “From Basic to Proficient: Developing a Video-Assisted Manual for the Least Mastered Microsoft Word Functions,” explored the effectiveness of a video-assisted manual in addressing the least mastered Microsoft Word features among Grade 7 learners of Cebu City Don Carlos A. Gothong Memorial National High School. Using a descriptive quantitative design, the researcher administered a validated questionnaire to seventy randomly selected learners to determine their demographic profile, the most challenging Microsoft Word functions, and their perceived improvement in engagement, confidence, and ICT self-efficacy. Results showed that learners struggled most with advanced features such as Mail Merge, Hyperlinking and Cross-References, Table of Contents creation, and SmartArt/Charts. Learners agreed that the video-assisted manual enhanced their participation, confidence, and ability to perform ICT-related tasks. A subsequent and more appropriate Kendall’s Tau analysis revealed a significant weak negative relationship (τ = –0.30, p = 0.0412) between manual use and the number of least mastered features, indicating improved mastery as learners used the manual more frequently. The study concludes that the video-assisted manual is an effective supplementary resource that supports digital literacy and skill acquisition.
