CONCLUSION

By collecting answers received from the surveys given out to the

respondents, the Criteria was tallied and divided to the total number of tallies of

all criteria: then, the quotient was converted to a percentage by multiplying it to

100.

This study found out that there is an effect on academic performance of

the Grade 10 Students when they are found playing online games. They found out

that the students cannot focus on their studies, they cannot do their home works

and other important things.

Out of 200 respondents, 154 replied they are affected in their academic

performance by playing online games. From this, the researchers conclude that a

number of students playing online game could have an effect in their academic

performance. Though the one hundred fifty-four that they are affected, it does not

necessarily mean that they are poorly performing in their studies. Most of the

students play an hour to 2-3 playing online games, since they find it source of

recreation.

RECOMMENDATIONS

1. As the respondents said, it can be inferred that playing online games

results to a positive effect in the social behavior of respondents. Even of

the respondents play online games still the personal interaction with others

are not affected. They still do have their friends personally and are able to

socialize effectively.

2. The academic performance of the respondents is not affected even if they

play online games their grades are still good enough even if they spent

time for playing. To sum up with the result, the respondents have a good

academic performance despite their, involvement in playing online games.

3. There is a significant relationship between the social behavior of the

respondents and playing online games in terms to its frequency

specifically in the item saying: "I play online games before going to bed

and play online games only on weekends also in the types of online games

such as Dota2, Mobile legends, Rules of survival, clash of clan , PUBG,

and league of legend".

4. There is a significant relationship between the academic performance of

the respondents and playing online games during weekends which result to

having a good grade while playing online games. This can be interpreted

as the trade off when playing computer games. If the students decide not

to play, then there will be no deduction in the grades. Which is true to the

researcher study for the respondent academic performance is only

significant to playing online games during weekend. Weekends are the

days when the respondents have their pleasure Time for recreational

activities.

5. Since most of the student respondents are male and they are more

frequently engaged in playing online games. The school administrators

and teacher in collaboration of the parents might consider to promote

physical health. Sportsmanship, camaraderie and pro social skills to the

students instead of getting engaged with online games.

43

6. Parents researcher association might consider being functional in all their

responsibilities. For example, the teacher might consider to notify the

parents about the academic performance and social performance and

social behavior of the student inside the school facilities. This association

can strengthen the home and school partnership to supervise the student’s

activities.
