CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION

Background of the study

COVID-19 is a disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus. 'CO' stands for

corona, 'VI' for virus and 'D' for disease. The COVID-19 virus is a new virus linked to the

same family of viruses as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome(SARS) and some types

of common cold (Bender, 2020, March). The outbreak was started in Wuhan City, Hubei

Province, China. It was initially reported to the World Health Organization(WHO) on

December 31,2019. On January 30, 2020, the WHO declared the COVID-19 outbreak a

global health emergency and on March 11, 2020, the WHO declared COVID-19 a global

pandemic (Cennimo, April 30). COVID-19 Pandemic, a defining global health crisis of

our time and a greatest challenge we have faced since World War Two (United Nations

Development Program, 2021). The spread of COVID-19 Pandemic led to several

restrictive measures. Some of restrictive measures include social distancing, wearing

face masks and wearing face shields in public.

The pandemic results to many changes that affects our life. The pandemic of

COVID-19 is changing the entire world, and the domain of education is not an exception

(Rae, 2020, May 25). School are needed to be closed. Closing schools can slow the

spread of disease and, in turn, save lives (Turner & Kamenetz , 2020). Because of this,

the children or students just stays at their houses and study with the new styles of

learning which are online learning, modular learning and blended learning. Most of the

business and work activities are also affected by the pandemic. According to Donthu &

Gustafsson (2020, June 9), the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has forced many
businesses to close, leading to an unprecedented disruption of commerce in most

industry sectors. Most of the employees have to work from their homes but other people

lose their jobs because of the pandemic.

The closure of schools and work activities became a way for families to stay

together at their homes. It has both positive and negative effects. For some families,

spending more time together during a lockdown may bring family members closer

towards each other (Janssen et al., 2020).They can help each other just like when

children who are studying at home needs the assistance of their parents in doing their

school activities or when parents needs the help of their children in doing the household

chores. Simply, families tend to have more social interactions than before. According to

UC Health (2020, April 4), for other families, it could mean raised anxiety in children and

tension in parenting relationships. Also, most of families experience financial hardships

during the pandemic.

The pandemic really affects and change the way of our living. It causes so much

problems. Because of the COVID-19 Pandemic, many people loses their jobs. It also

leads to the closure of schools. But even the COVID-19 Pandemic causes so much

problems, some treat this pandemic as an opportunity and a blessing because they will

have more time with their families.


Statement of the problem

This research seeks to investigate the impacts of social distancing during

COVID-19 pandemic on the daily life of Grade 11 STEM students of Camantiles

National High School.

Specifically, this study aims to further find out the answers to the following

specific questions.

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

a. Age

b. Gender

c. Parent's occupation

d. Parent's educational level

2. What are the reliable sources of information the students use on the COVID-19

outbreak?

3. What are the respondent's emotion towards COVID-19 pandemic?

4. What are the effects of social distancing measures on the daily life of respondents?

5. Is there a significant relationship between the socio-demographic attributes and the

emotions of the students?


Scope and Delimitation

The respondents will be limited to Grade 11 STEM students of Camantiles

National High School. The study shall only be conducted during school semester 2020-

2021. The study will be limited only to asses the impacts of social distancing during

COVID-19 Pandemic on the daily life of Grade 11 STEM Students of Camantiles

National High School.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

This chapter includes the ideas, finished thesis, generalization, or conclusions,

methodologies and others. Those that were included in this chapter helps in

familiarizing that are relevant and similar to the present study.

Foreign Studies

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the whole of humanity is at risk and we are

stuck at home (Karayel, 2020, October 27). COVID-19 has rattled our world, with

devastating impacts on children and families across the globe (Hamilton, 2020, October

25). Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, schools are needed to be closed. According

to Turner & Kamenetz (2020), closing schools can slow the spread of disease and, in

turn, save lives. The children or students just stays at home because of the pandemic.

The students nowadays study with the new styles of learning which are online learning,

modular learning and/or blended learning. The pandemic also affects the world of work.

The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak has forced many businesses to close, leading to an

unprecedented disruption of commerce in most industry sectors (Donthu & Gustafsson,

2020, June 9). Because of these, many people lose their jobs. Some are still working,

not in their work places before but in their homes. The pandemic became way for

families to stay together at their houses.

For some families, spending more time together during a lockdown may bring

family members closer towards each other (Janssen et al., 2020). The families will have
more time and chances to bond with each other. The parents can help their children in

doing their school activities and their children also can help them in doing household

chores. They will have chances to watch movies, eat, and play games together. Simply,

families tend to have more social interactions than before.

For some families, it could mean raise anxiety in children and tension in

parenting relationships (UC Health, 2020, April 4). According to the study of Chung,

Lanier, & Wong (2020), the pandemic was the reason of implementing safety distancing

in Singapore from April to May 2020. It is resulted to increase parenting stress. They

collected data from 258 parents living in Singapore using online surveys disseminated

through Facebook and community organization. Their predictor was the perceived

impact of COVID-19. They used Parental Stress Scale to measure parental stress. They

used two outcomes: parent-child relationship closeness and harsh parenting. The

results of their study indicated that parenting stress was a significant mediator in the

relationship between the perceived impact of COVID-19 and (a)parent-child

closeness(indirect effect=-.30, Boostrap 99% CI[-.59, -.11]) and (b)harsh

parenting(indirect effect=.58, Boostrap 99% CI[.25, .94]). Their study proves that the

impact of COVID-19 and stay-home orders can increase parenting stress that results to

negative impact on parenting by affecting parents' relationship with their children and

increasing the use of harsh parenting.

Local Studies
We interviewed one of the health center staffs of Brgy. Camantiles. At first, we

interviewed her about the impact of social distancing during pandemic on her daily life.

She says that it has a great impact om her because she needs to be away from her

family to board so she can go to the health center to work as a midwife and to provide

healthcare to the patients. She also stated that when pandemic came and she was

stuck at home, she was depressed because she should be in the barangay to do her job

as a front liner but she wasn't there because she was stuck at home. For her, the social

distancing measures during pandemic doesn't affect her social life.

The effect of social distancing in the health center is good because the patients

are not all inside the health center. She can talk to her parents one on one and they will

also have privacy because other patients are outside.

We also get her opinion about the impact of social distancing during pandemic on

the daily life of students. She says that some of the students was happy because they

are just at home and when they finish answering their modules, they can relax and they

can do what they wanted to do. But some of the students are having a difficulty and they

are stressed because they have modules to answer. For her, the face to face classes is

better because the teachers will be more focused on teaching their students. Also,

students will do their projects and assignment themselves. Today parents help their

children with their school activities but sometimes instead of students will do and

answer their activities, their parents do all their children's school works.

Synthesis of Related Literature and Studies


The pandemic results many circumstances all over the world. Schools and most

of businesses were forced to close because of the pandemic that's why students,

parents, and most of the people are stuck at home. During pandemic, some families

tend to be closer because of having more social interactions than before while in some

families, the pandemic raise anxiety in children and increase in parenting stress in

parents that leads to violence and harsh parenting that decrease the parent-child

closeness.

The studies and literature presented gives the researchers an insight on how to

go about with the present study.
