online learning on the development of
cognitive skills of the teacher education
students. Specifically, it sought to answer the
following questions:

 Research Design/Method
This study used the descriptive research method. According to
QuestionPro (2020) descriptive research is defined as a research
method that describes the characteristics of the population or
phenomenon studied. This method was chosen because it allows for
the researcher to collect a high-quality and honest data on the factors
and impacts of online learning on the respondents. Specifically, the
researcher was able to determine the impact of online learning on the
development of cognitive skills of Teacher Education Program
students using the descriptive method. Together with this method is
also the use of the survey questionnaire.
 Population and Sample of the Study

The target population of this research are individuals from

the college department particularly the Teacher Education
Program students. The sampling technique used in this study
was purposive sampling. This survey sampling technique
requires researchers to have prior knowledge of the purpose
of their studies in order to properly select and approach
eligible participants for surveys conducted through online
survey platforms (Alchemer, 2021). A sample of forty (40)
people were chosen from a population of 43.
 Data Collection Instrument

The researchers will use a 5-point frequency Likert

scale and level of consideration Likert scale
questions to determine the respondent’s answer.
 Data Gathering Procedure

Survey questionnaires were distributed to the

respondents through the application Google forms
and then collected by the researchers afterwards.
Some applications such as Messenger and
Microsoft Teams were also used to send the
survey questionnaires to the selected respondents.
 Statistical Tool/s
The data was analyzed and interpreted using the following
tools:

 Ethical Considerations
In conducting this research study, the researcher will follow the
necessary ethical considerations in the data collection to avoid issues
that may affect the overall results of the study.

1. The researchers will be honest in the report data, results,

procedures and publications status on the respondents’ answer.

2. The respondents' privacy and anonymity would be prioritized in

this study. The confidentiality of the information gathered will
be guaranteed.
 Ethical Considerations
3. The researchers will be avoiding bias in experimental design,
data interpretation, grant writing, expert testimony and other
aspects of research where objective is expected or required.
4. The respondents will get consent letters outlining the study's
purpose and objectives. They have the option of accepting or
declining the survey, as well as withdrawing from the study.

5. The researchers will avoid discrimination against colleagues or

students on the basis of sex, race, ethnicity or other factors that are
not related to their scientific competence and integrity.
