Introduction
The education landscape has undergone a significant transformation in recent years, largely
educational institution, has also embraced this new learning approach, implementing hybrid
learning. While hybrid learning presents several benefits, it is crucial to assess its impact on
students' academic performance to ensure its effectiveness and suitability for the specific context
of Golden Acres National High School. This study aims to provide valuable insights into the
relationship between hybrid learning and academic performance, shedding light on the strengths
education administrators and teachers in making informed decisions regarding the implementation
of this approach. By identifying the factors that contribute to students' academic success in a hybrid
learning environment, the school can refine its teaching methods, adapt the curriculum, and
enhance support systems to optimize student learning outcomes. The findings of this study will
contribute to the existing body of knowledge on hybrid learning and its impact on academic
performance. Moreover, the results will provide actionable insights to the school administration
and teachers, enabling them to make evidence-based decisions regarding the future
implementation and improvement of hybrid learning at Golden Acres National High School.

Background of the study
Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, students all around the world switched from distance
learning to the new normal of learning this time of year. As the `new normal" of education’
suggests that learning can be anywhere, the existence of brick-and-mortar schools is perceived.
Since there was a transition to fast and prompt learning in the "new normal education," various
One of the things that has been severely affected is the education of young people, who are
still struggling to figure out how to get through their education. In every aspect, students have
become fighters and challengers. These students prioritize convenience, flexibility, and the ability
to work while studying and are older than traditional college-age students (Harris and Martin,
2012; Levitz, 2016). These students also find asynchronous elements of a course more useful than
synchronous elements (Gillingham and Molinari, 2012). In contrast, students who choose to take
courses in person prioritize face-to-face instruction and connection with others and skew
considerably younger (Harris and Martin, 2012). In a contextual manner, students are able to
This study focused on addressing whether educational systems can optimize students'
learning, feelings, and experiences. Many countries around the world are promoting education
through a new normal. Thus, the modes of new normal education are more practiced or supported.
This study aims to explore and expand how students are taught, the correlation between ways of
learning and how students evaluate their experiences, as well as the factors that influence these
evaluations.

The respondents will be limited to 30 respondents of Grade 10 students of Golden Acres National
High School of the City of Las Piñas. moreover, participants will answer the prepared questions

learning attested to the formation of learning communities wherein knowledge construction and
social learning occur through interaction, collaboration, and personal accountability (Swan, 2002).
Distance education is broadly characterized as any form of learning experience where the learner
and the instructor are physically separated from each other (not only by place but also by time).
Arguably, such a dislocation is “the perfect context for free-flowing thought that lets us move
beyond the restricted confines of a familiar social order” (Hooks, 2003).Moreover, this type of
circumstances might be. This means that distance education may extend access to education

online learning. The rollout, however, was met with criticisms due to broadcasting problems and
poor connectivity (Bangkok Post, 2020). The implementation, however, proved to be challenging
given issues like uneven access to the internet, the disparity in teacher qualifications and education
quality, and the lack of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) skills (Azzahra,

The study found that hybrid learning slightly improved Grade 10 students' academic
performance, but faced challenges like lack of technology access, slow internet connectivity, and
domestic distractions. It was found to be marginally effective. Hybrid learning improves skill-
based learning, communication, teamwork, and organizational skills, while also supporting time

Conclusion
The effects of Hybrid Learning on the academic performance of selected Grade 10 students
in Golden Acres National High School have been determined, revealing both positive and negative
outcomes. Overall, hybrid learning has presented several advantages, such as increased flexibility,
personalized learning experiences, and the combination of technology into the educational process.
Additionally, hybrid learning has fostered self-directed learning skills. The use of online
platforms, collaborative tools, and multimedia resources has expanded the students' learning
opportunities beyond the traditional classroom setting. However, the transition to hybrid learning
has also posed challenges. Students may face difficulties in overcoming new learning
environments and technical issues that limit them to access technology or reliable internet
connectivity, and the lack of face-to-face interaction with teachers and peers has been identified

since only a few students have been participating actively in the new normal education.
Students must be fully aware of how they can cope with the difficulties caused by new normal
education.
