Method of Study

This study was conducted to determine the effects Modular learning on the students of SAN
JOSE CITY NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL specially on ABM
students. The researchers created a questionnaire that consisted of 15 items which were
created based on the study’s problem. The survey followed a multiple choice and
rating format to gather a more narrow set of answers. An in-depth investigation of data
makes room for new ideas, notions, and understanding to emerge. The major goal of this
study is to look into fresh and unknown possibilities.

Population and Sample

Statistics is a collection of mathematical strategies or processes for organizing, analyzing,

and interpreting numerical data. The purpose of this study is to find out how modular
learning affects ABM students. ABM students were surveyed by the researchers, who
received 30 responses. The researchers chose to examine ABM students about the new
normal learning's impacts. SAN JOSE CITY NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL-SENIOR HIGH
SCHOOL students were studied by the researchers in a few selected units.

Instruments Used

Google Docs Forms was utilized by the researchers to conduct the survey. Google
Docs Forms is a free web tool that allows you to quickly and conveniently collect data.
You can build surveys in a matter of minutes using Google Docs Forms, and a summary
of the results may be simply obtained.
It was sent out via messenger and email to possible responses. The researcher accepted
responses until the survey received 30 responses, at which point the Google Docs Form
was closed with a disclaimer to prevent generating confusion and frustration.

Description of the Instruments

The term research instrument refers to any tool that you may use to collect or obtain
data, measure data and analyse data that is relevant to the subject of your research.

This study is a tool used to collect, measure, and analyze data of the survey about
the effect of modular learning on the students in SAN JOSE CITY
NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL. We use Research
instruments to tests, surveys, scales, questionnaires, or even checklists.

To assure the strength of our study, it is important to use

previously validated instruments.

Administration of Instruments

A method in which data is collected from a target population, called the sample, by
personal interviews, online surveys, the telephone, or paper questionnaires. Some
forms of survey research such as online surveys may be completed in an automated
fashion. We use the administration instruments to collect the data of the survey. To
know the effects of modular learning on the students of SAN JOSE CITY
NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL. Moreover, to know the
positive and negative effects of modular learning in their health.

Response Mode/Scoring

In survey research, a response generally refers to the answer a respondent provides

when asked a question. However, response to a survey can also be considered to occur
when a sampled respondent decides whether or not to participate in the survey. Both
types of responses may affect data quality; thus, a well-trained researcher will pay close
attention to each.

Most of our respodents were female, according to the survey its moderately effective
has modular learning to them. In addition, many of them says that it's too much pressure
from the subject deadline one of the factor that affect the risk of being mentally unstable
of a high school students.

Validity and Reliability of the Instruments

The validity of the research focuses on the ABM 12 students in SAN JOSE CITY
NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL-SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL, with the participation of atleast
30 ABM students to answer the given survey questionnaires based on their experiences
and own opinions regarding the study. The reliability of the research study is to to go on a
deep analysis about the study, the effects of new normal learning on mental health, we are
able to do a yes or no survey questions through online to be answered by the chosen ABM
12 participants, same questions which are very implicable to all the participants.
This research aims to determine the validity and the reliability of the mental health
effects of modular distance learning to those who were tracking the ABM strand
(especially the grade 12 students) at SAN JOSE CITY NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL-
SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL. This comprehensive study were be able to conduct by the
evaluation of 6 students with the participation of some selected ABM 12 students to
participate the study. By conducting this, will are able to gain the basic informations about
the risks and the factors that affects those ABM students who were at the modular distance
learning.
Prior to the study, it would be a benefit for us, that it would result in to good validity and
reliability of the study. Results gathered would undergo some sort of studies in able to
specify the areas of the major advantage and disadvantages of modular learning in ABM
12 mental stability, if the modular distance learning was an effective alternative form of
teaching or not and the factors needs to consider while having this new normal way of
learning.
Other Sources of Data, If any:
None, research and the questionnaires answers results only.

Data Gathering and Procedure

We are tasked to create 7 yes or no questions, 1 poor, average, excellent, 1 not at all
effective, moderately effective, extremely effective, 2 not at all helpful, strongly
helpful, moderately helpful, extremely helpful, 1 slightly helpful, very helpful,
extremely helpful, 1 feeling of isolation, increase in stress, anxiety, depression, how
many hours on doing modules each day, and 1 agree, strongly agree, disagree, strongly
disagree questions regarding the given study to be answered by the chosen participants
through survey online. An email registration fill up form with an allotted amount of
time given to be answered carefully.

Statistical Treatment of Data

Treatment of Data

The responses made by students describing their socio-demographic profile, Preference

of result about the effects of modular distance learning into their mental health,
and anticipated problems were presented. For instance, gender, age, modular learning
going well, are they feel damaging their mental health to stay up late in doing modules,
how stressful is distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, and effects of
distance learning to your mental health. This was also applied for top three effects of
modular distance learning and students preference in making their modules. In providing
overall picture of the socio-demographic profile and effects of modular distance learning
into their mental health, as well as anticipated problems in pursuing their studies and its
effect on students, summary presentations will also presented.

Statistical Treatment for Data Responses to the questionnaire by senior high school
students were statistically analyzed with the data requirements of the study. Students
were statistically analyzed with the data instruments of the study. Descriptive
statistics such as frequency count, mean, percent and rank are considered. To know if
there is a correlation between the independent and dependent variables Pearson
Product Moment of Correlation Coefficient was utilized with 0.05 level of
significance.
