THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

1.1 Background of the Study

Online learning is an education method that takes place over the

Internet. It is often referred to as “e-Learning” among other terms.
However, online learning is just one type of “distance learning”- the
umbrella term for any learning that takes place across distance and not in
a traditional classroom.

Now a days, E-learning is considered as one of the best technological

innovation that fundamentally has a great impact on the educational
experience. With the power of the web, the teaching and learning
transaction is exposed to unfathomable amounts of information. E-learning
is an open system that blends access to information and purposeful
communication into a dynamic and intellectually challenging learning
community.

Due to the outbreak of the pandemic, a lot of establishments closed

and that includes schools, for the safetiness of the scool staffs,teachers
and students.For students to be able to study and stay safe at the same
time,the Department of Education propose that students can still learn
through online and modular learning even when schools are closed.This
proposal is now being used so parents can secure the safetiness of their
children and they can still continue their studies even through virtual
meetings so students can still keep up to their lessons. This research is
made because we want others to know what are the positive effects and
advantages of using online learning especially this year that we are in the
middle of a pandemic.We want to spread the importance of being able to
study even though there were a lot of hindrance on the way, that we can
still look for a way if we are really persevered in graduating.

Approximately 264 million children and adolescents are not in school,

and this pandemic made this situation further worst. As the COVID-19
pandemic spreads, there has been an increasing move towards teaching online
because of shutting down of schools, colleges and universities for an
indefinite time as the only option left. Therefore, this is the time to
gravely rethink, revamp and redesign our education system in much demanding
need of unprecedented current situation. Informal and non-formal education
is also tremendously affected. However, it is a well-established assumption
that no pedagogical approach can replace the peak position of formal
education due to having teacher-taught direct interaction. We decided to
study and cond
 In conclusion,online learning is a very effective way to continue
studying nowadays because students can still learn even if we are not in
a real classroom you can keep up to the lessons that will be taught at
schools before the pandemic started.

PROCESS- To determine the effects of online classes on students,

parents, and teachers from barangay 1, 2, and 3. S.Y. 2020-2021. Using
paper-pencil questionnaires or through online.

OUTPUT- An analysis to the respondents on how one student can affect his
or her behavior through the effect of online learning in their class or
social life.

1.2 Statement Of The Problem

This study aims to know what are the effects of online classes on
students, teachers, and parents in barangay 1, 2,and 3. More specifically,
this study will answer the following questions:

1. What is the profile of the respondents in terms of

A. Name

B. Age

C. Gender

D. School (For teachers and Student)

E. Address

2. Do you believe that Online classes are efficient? Why or Why not
it is efficient?

3. What are the problems or inconvenience that you are facing?

 4. Do you think Online classes should continue? Why?

5. What do you think is the solution for this problem?

1.3 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The findings of this study will give a big benefit to the
students about what the effects of online classes are. Also, the
students or the respondents will know how beneficial it is to
one another. More specifically, this study will answer that this
research will benefit the following:
 Teachers.
Teachers’ are the one who will primarily benefit from this
study, because they will know how advantageous the online classes
are. In online classes teachers’ will no longer make their
troublesome lesson plan, because they already have the ready-made
lesson plans containing their objectives with learning activities, so
all they need to do is to deliver the lessons to the students. They
will also know how the students’ thoughts will affect their class
behavior (if the student has a negative thought about online class)
and will be able to handle it.
 Students.
The result of this study will be a big help to the students
because they will determine benefits of online classes for example:
Students can have the lectures any number of times, anywhere, and
anytime because unlike classroom teaching if they cannot attend the
lecture, then they have to prepare for that topic on their own, but
with e-learning as long as they have internet connection they can
access the content an unlimited number of times and they can attend
the lectures whenever they want with ease. As well as the can easily
know and understand the topics.
 Principal.
The outcome of the study will provide background on the strategy
to be recommended to the teachers. This study will motivate them to
use the appropriate strategies that would improve their educational
system that would give them an edge to other schools.
 Parents.
The result of the study will inform the parents regarding the
performance of their child. It is important that they will be made
aware of the findings of this study since their cooperation and
proper assistance are greatly needed by their children.they will be
able to maintain and observe their children on their academics since
online class is very efficient to all of the respondents.
 Future Researchers.
The information from this study may give insight to the new
educational system. Researchers who are interested in e-learning will
profit from the results if they will conduct related researches to
different groups of students, location, and even races. This study
will serve as a springboard for the conduct of similar studies that
will contribute to the teachers and administrators in-depth knowledge
about e-learning system.
  Environment.
As eLearning is a paperless way of learning, it protects the
environment to a lot of extent. As per a study done on eLearning
courses, it has been found that distance-based learning programs
consumed around 90% less power and generated 85% less amount of CO2
emissions as compared to traditional campus-based educational
courses. (Pertti, 2018) With eLearning, there is no need to cut
trees for obtaining paper. Thus, eLearning is a highly eco-friendly
way of learning.

1.4 Assumption Of The Study

The researchers assumed some answers to the questions that they

have asked in their questionnaires, here are the following:

1. Do you believe that Online classes are efficient? Why or Why

not it is efficient?
a) Yes. Because online class is very convenient to everyone,
specially to students and teachers. Parents can also save time to teach
their children because of Online class.
b) No. Because online class is not that efficient. Not everyone can
afford the gadgets that has been used as well as the good internet
connection
.
2. What are the problems or inconvenience that you are
facing?
a) Financial Problem
b) Slow Wifi/Data
c) Lack of Devices
d) Workload

3. Do you think Online classes should continue? Why?

a) Yes. Because it benefits us all.
b) No. Because it doesn’t help students. They become distracted in
using their phones or gadgets. They are also too lazy to attend online
classes.

4. What do you think is the solution for this problem?

a) Stop Online class or Academic Freeze.
b) A better time management to students and teachers.

1.5 Scope and Limitations

This research was entirely focused on Online learning’s

capabality and efficient to our respondents, which are the teachers,
students, and parents. The research took place at barangay 1, 2 and 3.
The researchers used paper-pencil questionnaires and they also us
online questionnaires since everyone is quarantined and not everyone
can get out.The questions that is composed in the questionnaires is
easy and convenient to the respondents since we used questions that
can be answered by their opinion. This research will be able to
understand why some people think that Online class is a negative thing
and also why it is a positive thing. This will also be able to reveal
the respondents thought toward Online class. Overall, this research is
useful and efficient to everyone that the researchers include in their
studies.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

Everyone can access education no matter the location. In such

cases, online learning helps to eliminate borders and barriers, both social
and physical. Online courses are a great solution to the challenges that
these people face as they are provided with high-quality education and on
their own place and time.

These explanations are what we had known for in online learning that
also helps us to provide good information about our chosen topic. Some of
these explanations are a summary in the researches that we had gathered
from the use of the internet that helps us in the ideas, concepts, studies
and theories of our chosen topic. It was conducted for the achievement and
completion of goals in this study.

Foreign Literature

(Muntajeeb Alibaig, 2011) He conducted about the study of the

effectiveness of online learning on student’s achievements. In his research
the Online learning environments are hugely diverse in size, capabilities
and services offered, and can cater for individuals ranging in attainment
is not limited to web pages with text, but it includes audio, video,
interactivity, games and technologies like videoconferencing and live
broadcasting, which has made communication more flexible, comprehensive and
dynamic. In terms of academic results, online learning can represent a more
successful learning environment and have proven to be motivating contexts
for learning. The future of online learning has many innovative and
exciting possibilities.

(Jia Frydenberg,2007)In her study in the persistence of continuing

education in online learning. Her study presents persistence and attrition
data from two years of data collection. Over the eight quarters studied,
the persistence rate in online courses was 79 percent. The persistence rate
for similar onground courses was 84 percent. The drops for both course
modalities were disaggregated by the time of the request for withdrawal:
before course start, during the initial week, and during instruction. There
was a significant difference between online and onground requests for
withdrawals during the initial week. There was no significant difference
between online and onground drop rates after the start of instruction,
leading to the conclusion that differences in instruction online and
onground was unlikely to be a major influencing factor in the student’s
decision to drop. This means, online learning is a must for students since
it is more knowledgeable and also because of the vast knowledge of the
internet.

(Brad Mehlenbacher, Krista Holstein, Brett Gordon, Khalil Khammar, 2014)

They stated in their research that instructions and learning that is
possible, that occurs and is augmented by the World Wide Web. This includes
most applications encompassed by the Internet in education, excluding
applications for managing registration, records-keeping, and the business
of learning institutions. Synonyms for web-based instruction also include
e-learning, online teaching and learning, distance education, distance
learning, Web-based training, computer-assisted learning, computer-assisted
learning, flexible learning, and technology-rich instruction. Certainly,
the results of our concordance suggest that Web-based instruction and
online courses are used interchangeably. They also observe that, although
academics tend to prefer distance education to business’s e-learning, both
use Web-based learning (p. 410). These etymological debates are to be taken
seriously given that it is difficult for any field of research to develop
cohesive programs without being able to find agreement on the terminology
that defines its object or objects of study. For this reason, interpreting
the Web in WBI as referring to the global network of multimedia information
that is readily accessible for communication broadens the grain-size of our
analysis and encourages strengthened dialogue with researchers interested
in instruction and learning with technology in general.

Local Literature

(Dave E. Marcial ,Rey Dennis B. Caballero,Jeambe B. Rendal ,Gereo A.

Patrimonio,2015) According to the research they conducted entitled, “I AM
OFFLINE”: MEASURING BARRIERS TO OPEN ONLINE LEARNING IN THE PHILIPPINES.
Open online learning provides new opportunities for students and teachers.
However, research shows that completion rates in open online courses are
typically low. This paper presents an empirical analysis of the degree of
the barriers to open online learning. The respondents are teachers at the
tertiary level in the Philippines who experienced a full distance online
learning. Responses from 44 respondents were included in the analysis using
an adapted survey questionnaire. The study reveals that Internet cost and
access and technical problems are substantial barriers to open online
learning while social interaction is somewhat of a barrier. It is concluded
that infrastructure and technical accessibility are the priority
considerations in online learning.

(Reynato C. Arimbuyutan, Seoksoo Kim, Jae-gu Song, and Wooyoung So,2007)

According to their conducted research entitled, A STUDY ON E-LEARNING FOR
PHILIPPINES. Filipino culture places a high value on education. For the
majority of the Filipinos, the only best thing for a child to acquire and
secure a better future is through education. So, they want more effective
education system. E-Learning is still an emerging market in the
Philippines. Its use is still sporadic and most users represent only a
small segment of the Philippines education and business communities. The
study wants to correct analysis and right direction presentation
for Philippine remote education environment. Development of information
Technology and knowledge information society transfer brought huge
change of education filed in the world. In fact, Educational infra of
Philippines was meager before 4~5 years. Also computing and Internet infra

And,there is progressing various project with more interest about e-
Learning. Therefore, the study wants to correct analysis and right
direction presentation for Philippine remote education environment.

(FROILAN D. MOBO, GESSWEIN O. SABADO, 2019) According to their conducted

research entitled, An Assessment of the Effectiveness of E-Learning in AMA
Olongapo Campus. E-learning system is designed to aid students build their
comprehension towards their respected academic subjects to make their
experience in learning more nourishing and engaging. The researchers
decided to conduct this study to be au fait the benefits of online education
and how the students accept the change this innovation gave. A survey
questionnaire was distributed to the enrolled college students of AMA
Computer College Year 2018-2019 to make the research more reliable,
accurate and at the same time tackle the benefits of the said innovated
education system. The said research was a success in defining what helps the
students in their education as well as the improvement it can do in terms
of catering different subjects and assessing the learners’ competency. The
researchers recommend the future researchers to further expand and
elaborate the topic in order to enhance the study. To further extend the
scope and distribute further information regarding the tackled study.

Foreign Studies

According to an article written by Cathy Li in 29 April 2020, While

countries are at different points in their COVID-19 infection rates,
worldwide there are currently more than 1.2 billion children in 186
countries affected by school closures due to the pandemic. In Denmark,
children up to the age of 11 are returning to nurseries and schools after
initially closing on 12 March, but in South Korea students are responding
to roll calls from their teachers online. With this sudden shift away from
the classroom in many parts of the globe, some are wondering whether the
adoption of online learning will continue to persist post-pandemic, and how
such a shift would impact the worldwide education market. Because even
before COVID-19, there was already high growth and adoption in education
technology, with global edtech investments reaching US$18.66 billion in
2019 and the overall market for online education projected to reach $350
Billion by 2025. Whether it is language apps, virtual tutoring, video
conferencing tools, or online learning software, there has been a
significant surge in usage since COVID-19. Even before COVID-19, there was
already high growth and adoption in education technology, with global
edtech investments reaching US$18.66 billion in 2019 and the overall market
for online education projected to reach $350 Billion by 2025. Whether it
is language apps, virtual tutoring, video conferencing tools, or online
learning software, there has been a significant surge in usage since COVID-
19.

According also to a research conducted by Shivangi Dawan, educational

institutions (schools, colleges, and universities) in India are currently
based only on traditional methods of learning, that is, they follow the
traditional set up of face-to-face lectures in a classroom. Although many
academic units have also started blended learning, still a lot of them are
stuck with old procedures. The sudden outbreak of the pandemic situation
challenged the education system across the world and forced educators to
shift to an online mode of teaching overnight. Many academic institutions
that were earlier reluctant to change their traditional pedagogical
approach had no option but to shift entirely to online teaching–learning.

Rapid developments in technology have made distance education easy

(McBrien et al., 2009). “Most of the terms (online learning, open learning,
web-based learning, computer-mediated learning, blended learning, m-
learning, for ex.) have in common the ability to use a computer connected
to a network, that offers the possibility to learn from anywhere, anytime,
in any rhythm, with any means” (Cojocariu et al., 2014).Online learning can
be termed as a tool that can make the teaching–learning process more
student-centered, more innovative, and even more flexible. Online learning
is defined as “learning experiences in synchronous or asynchronous
environments using different devices (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, etc.)
with internet access. In these environments, students can be anywhere
(independent) to learn and interact with instructors and other students”
(Singh & Thurman, 2019). The synchronous learning environment is structured
in the sense that students attend live lectures, there are real-time
interactions between educators and learners, and there is a possibility of
instant feedback, whereas asynchronous learning environments are not
properly structured. In such a learning environment, learning content is
not available in the form of live lectures or classes; it is available at
different learning systems and forums. Instant feedback and immediate
response are not possible under such an environment (Littlefield, 2018).
Synchronous learning can provide a lot of opportunities for social
interaction (McBrien et al., 2009). Amidst this deadly virus spread such
online platforms are needed where (a) video conferencing with at least 40
to 50 students is possible, (b) discussions with students can be done to
keep classes organic, (c) internet connections are good, (d) lectures are
accessible in mobile phones also and not just laptops, (e) possibility of
watching already recorded lectures, and (f) instant feedback from students
can be achieved and assignments can be taken (Basilaia et al., 2020)

Local Studies

28 million Filipino learners across academic levels who have to stay at

home and comply with the Philippine government’s quarantine measures
(UNESCO, 2020). To respond to the needs of learners, especially of the 3.5
million tertiary-level students enrolled in approximately 2,400 HEIs,
certain HEIs in the country have implemented proactive policies for the
continuance of education despite the closure. These policies include
modified forms of online learning that aim to facilitate student learning
activities. Online learning might be in terms of synchronous, real-time
lectures and time-based outcomes assessments, or asynchronous, delayed-time
activities, like pre-recorded video lectures and time-independent
assessments (Oztok et al., 2013). Case in point are top universities in the
country, viz., De La Salle University (DLSU), Ateneo de Manila University
(ADMU), the University of Santo Tomas (UST), and the state-run University
of the Philippines, Diliman (UPD).
DLSU has resorted to remote online learning, which combines both
synchronous and asynchronous activities. For students who cannot
participate in online learning, there are flexible options for completing
course requirements throughout the academic year (De La Salle University,
2020a). ADMU has suspended synchronous online classes but continued
asynchronous online learning so that “all students can learn at their own
pace” (Villarin, 2020). UST, like DLSU, has opted to continue with
synchronous and asynchronous online classes, and a flexible grading of
student outputs and assessments (University of Santo Tomas, 2020). Other
private universities and institutions such as STI College, St.
Scholastica’s College, Adamson University, Far Eastern University, the
University of the East, Ateneo de Davao University, and the University of
San Carlos have continued with their online classes as well.

As the Philippine’s Department of Education (DepEd) Secretary, Leonor

Briones quipped, “Education must continue even in times of crisis whether
it may be a calamity, disaster, emergency, quarantine, or even war”
(Department of Education, 2020). The Philippines’ Commission on Higher
Education (CHEd), on the other hand, advised HEIs to continue the
“deployment of available flexible learning and other alternative modes of
delivery in lieu of on-campus learning” (Commission on Higher Education,
2020). These pronouncements aim to encourage the continuance of learning.
Without implementing rules and regulations, however, private HEIs are left
to make their own policies.through an online petition based on student and
faculty sentiments, student governments from different universities urged
CHEd to mandate the cancellation of online classes, stating that “while we
understand the need for learning to continue, the different circumstances
of students across universities are not ideal and conducive for such.” The
petitioners argue that “access to the internet connection and learning
devices continued to be a privilege up to this day, placing those with poor
internet access at a disadvantage when it comes to online classes.” [For a
better picture, 45% of Filipino citizens (46 million) and 74% (34,500) of
public schools do not have access to the internet (Jones, 2019)].

Furthermore, “adding more workload for the students increases their

burden and contradicts the purpose of the lockdown, which is to help their
families prepare and adjust to the situation at hand.” Finally, there is an
issue about the “lack of environments conducive to learning at home and the
effectiveness of the online lectures” (Bagayas, 2020). Social media
hashtags like, #NoStudentLeftBehind, #NoSchoolLeftBehind,
#EndOnlineClasses, #EndTheSem, and #NoToOnlineClasses strengthen these
sentiments further.

In consideration of such petitions, the state-run University of the

Philippines-Diliman (UPD) suspended all modes of online learning. In his
message to the academic community on March 17, 2020, UPD Chancellor Fidel
Nemenzo announced the cancellation of online classes due to (i) emergency
concerns as “caring for our families and for ourselves comes first,” (ii)
“unequal access to personal computers and the internet exists among our
community,” and (iii) “the shift to online classes has also not been smooth
for our faculty, who have had to learn new skills and revise their syllabi
overnight” (Nemenzo, 2020).
 One may claim that the main thrust of distance education is to bring
education to those who are unreachable, under-resourced, less-privileged
and inaccessible (Biana, 2013). Taken as such, distance education “reaches
out to students wherever they live or wish to study” (Guri-Rosenblit,
2005). This kind of flexibility gives students more freedom to actively
participate in learning (Guri-Rosenblit, 2005; Daniel, 2016). Students
learn even if they are separated from their instructors by space and/or
time (Edge and Loegering, 2000). In the time of COVID-19, distance learning
became a necessity for learners and educators all over the world (Ali,
2020). Such a form of education, however, need not be limited to online
learning (Baggaley, 2008). Some have suggested using cell phones and (SMS)
texting technology to facilitate learning (Flores, 2018). Others urge to
employ TV programs, radio broadcasts, and other non-internet based media
(Punzalan, 2020). Perhaps, some teachers might go back to basics and
distribute annotated physical textbooks to their students through courier
services. As long as the education sector is engaged, teachers and students
have ample support, the curriculum and content of the learning modules are
well-defined and personalized, technological limitations are acknowledged,
and user-friendly and enjoyable materials are present, education will
continue one way or another (Ramos et al., 2007; Ali, 2020). Such support
presupposes a collaboration between teachers and policy makers and
authorities to develop the relevant referenced programs as well.

Notwithstanding the various stresses it brings, the outbreak of COVID-19

not only forced us to think about the technologies for delivering education
(Kim, 2020), it also compelled us to rethink the very nature of education
itself. The government should create and implement concrete policies that
will support a new breed of distance educators. Educators in turn need to
innovate to ensure that education remains inclusive and accessible, and
that distance learning is not limited to pure online learning.
