This study is about Innovated Portable Table Router Trainer, as instructional guide in Interior Design Technology (IDT) at Cebu Technological University (CTU)- Main Campus, Cebu City as basis for an Instructional Guide. There are three phases of the study- The development of the trainer, the evaluation of its level of acceptability and effectiveness, and the significant difference of the perceptions of the respondents group on the acceptability of the trainer. The level of acceptability of the Portable Table Router Trainer in terms of its design as rated by both the experts and students is Highly Acceptable with the average weighted mean of 4.67 and 4.65. The effectiveness of the Portable Table Router Trainer with its functions as rated by the experts is described as Highly Effective with the weighted mean of 4.72. This means that the trainer met the standards and is very functional in performing each function. The test of significant mean difference between the perceptions of the two respondent groups on the acceptability of the trainer shows that the computed t-value is 0.36 lesser than the critical t-value of 2.04 at alpha level of 0.05, is the two - tailed test. Therefore, the null hypothesis, which states that; “There is no significant mean difference between the perceptions of the respondent groups on the acceptability of the trainer”, is accepted. So, both the experts and the students have the same perceptions on the acceptability of the Portable Table Router Trainer. Based on the findings, it is concluded that the Innovative Portable Table Router Trainer met the standards and is very useful in performing each function for IDT instructions. Hence the instructional guide is adopted.
