which of those are the most beneficial. The discussion of the study below
focuses on the cited variables based on the data in the tabular presentation.

WM of 3.65. Third, the students agreed that they minimize distractions when
studying with a WM of 3.35. Fourth, they agreed that they review their notes

regarding the lessons after answering the modules with a WM of 3.2. The least
rated indicator was that they never procrastinate on their module, with a WM of
2.85.

Study habits was the highest-rated variable because the indicators shown
to the respondents was easy to comprehend, as well as due to the fact that this
indicator can be observed by themselves. The student were also able to develop

the most highly rated component, owing to the fact that having a good study habit
leads to students having a beneficial effect under the modular modality, as seen
by the data. (Arieta, K., et al. 2017) backs up the findings that the success or
failure of each student depends upon their study habits, this supports the claim
that this factor influences how students' learning is altered by modular modality. It

students should be able to develop good study habits. (b) The study’s results
state that the students were able to manage their time well, have access to
certain materials like computer, Wi-Fi, etc. and they also have dedicated study
areas. As a result, the researchers suggest that one must have develop a good
excellence and should be a requirement for students until the following year, and
so on. This will also enable students to be responsible and comply multiple tasks
on time, under the modular learning modality. (c) The study revealed that there
habits and learning management during the abrupt shift from traditional face-to-
face to modular learning modality. The majority of students agreed that the
was achieved by the students, able to answer all the tasks in the module; at the
same time, they were unable to recall any of the previous lessons. As a

2. The study was able to gather suggestions that would help further improves
one's learning under modular modality. It mostly suggests that getting information
classes, and having a complete copy of the module can help students learn
better.
3. Based on the proposed framework and data gathered, the study suggests that
student should be able to have a good study habit and learning management as
these two variables correlate on how they will perform better academically.
