INTRODUCTION
Online learning communities facilitate communication between people who share
common interests and learn collaboratively using networked technologies. Researchers
and designers have to understand social practices in order to explore and develop
technological tools for such collaboration and communication.

Online learning is education that takes place over the internet. It is often reffered
to as “e-learning” among other terms. However, online learning is just one type of
“distance learning” - the umbrella term for any learning takes place across distance and
not in a traditional classroom. The Happiness Index is a tool for the use of researchers,
community organizers and policy makers seeking to understand and enhance individual
happiness, community well-being, social justice, economic equality, and environmental
sustainability
The widespread use of online learning has had a profound impact on higher education.
However, empirical studies of this delivery strategy have trailed behind this trend. Many
people have noted the necessity for research on the characteristics of online students,
but the literature currently available only includes anecdotal evidence and personal
teaching experiences. The authors carried out three research to address these problems.
For more than two decades, education research has continually focused on online
learning as a concept and a buzzword. (Singh, V., & Thurman
 In this research you will be able to acquire knowledge on how does the online
learning influence the students towards its happiness index. Due to the COVID-
19 outbreak, schools were compelled to close their campuses and implement
online learning on the majority of students. However, the quick switch to
online learning has brought up a number of problems that have not been
handled. While numerous studies have looked into how students felt about
online learning throughout the pandemic, there have been conflicting findings.
Online learning is one of the ongoing trends in the global education industry.
The internet is used for this type of learning. This form of learning has been
made easier with new and improved apps and technologies. Higher education
institutions favor online learning as well. Students in our generation can get
significant advantages through online learning, such as new abilities, increase
independence, the ability to learn at their own speed, family time, problem-
solving and the ability to research their subjects and studies thoroughly using
the internet. Cons, however more duty at home, loneliness, and technical
difficulties. The benefits typically outweigh the drawbacks. Students were
somewhat capable from online learning because in the other hand they have
much time to study at home, however it influence the students through their
lifestyle and on how they’ll manage their time equally. Because of the
global corona virus illness 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, online schooling became
a pillar for students.

POLICY GUIDELINES FOR THE PROVISION OF LEARNING RESOURCES IN
THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BASIC EDUCATION LEARNING
CONTINUITY PLAN

The public health emergency brought about by COVID-19 calls for the
Department of Education (DepEd) to be innovative and resourceful in
delivering quality, accessible, relevant, and liberating education. In
response to this emergency, DepEd developed the Basic Education
Learning Continuity Plan (BE-LCP) to ensure that learning opportunities are
provided to our learners in a safe manner, through different learning
delivery. In line with this, the Department, through its Regional and
Schools Division Offices undertake the urgent and necessary development,
production and provision of learning resources, in accordance with its
mandate. The 1987 Constitution states in Article XIV, Sections 1 and 2
RELATED THEORIES
The quick and widespread adoption and dispersion of online learning, or e-learning, is a
significant development that has some people concerned and others excited. Online
learning is becoming more popular among people and their communities as they learn,
share knowledge, and build their own communities of inquiry, whether for formal degree
completion or personal development. New technologies are inspiring new educational
and learning practices in fully online settings as well as in hybrid, on and off-line contexts,
and the new environments are inspiring new behaviors. Online learning is now roughly 17
years old [1] and, in many cases, relies on years of success in distant education and the
use of computers in the classroom (such as the PLATO system,
http://www.physics.uiuc.edu/history/PLATO.htm). Teachers have been focused on how to
educate in the new online environment for the past 17 years, and there are now
conferences, journals, books, and degrees that cover this topic. Administrators, students,
and employers have been debating whether online learning is "as good as" offline
learning. Numerous research have looked at this issue, with the results mainly being
inconclusive (see for example, Russell, 2001).
The authors of this paper have all been working with and researching online
learning for most of its lifetime. We combine expertise in examining teaching, learning,
and social interaction online in degree–granting and professional development
environments. We share a common focus on practice – emergent practice – occurring at
the intersection of teaching, learning and ICT use, affecting and affected by social change,
community practice, and individual meaning–making around technology and online social
interaction.

RELATED LITERATURE’S

Online Learning, as defined by:

A common definition of online learning as
opposed to face-to-face (F2F) learning is that
there is no physical classroom present;
instead, web-based technologies are used to
provide opportunities for outside-of-class
learning that are independent of time, place,
and pace. It should be noted, however, that
"in the context of higher education, the
phrase online learning is often interpreted as
referencing courses that are offered online."
(Bernard et al., 2014; p. 286).
Review of Related Studies
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-
19) pandemic caused significant
disruption to teaching and learning
activities at all levels. Faculty,
students, institutions, and parents
have had to rapidly adapt and adopt
measures to make the best use of
available resources, tools and teaching
strategies.
This has led a large
number of researchers to share
challenges, solutions and knowledge
gleaned during this period. The main
aim of this researchers/studies was to
thematically model the literature
related to teaching and learning
during, and about, COVID-19. The
research encompassed diverse
scientific disciplines, including social
sciences, computer science, and life
sciences, as well as learnings in
support systems, including libraries,
information technology, and mental
health.
 Statement of the Problem
 
This study aims to know the influence of online learning to the happiness index of Grade 11 ABM
2 students of University of Bohol school year 2022-2023
1.what is the profile of the respondent in terms of
1. Sex:
 
 
2.What is the respondent’s perception towards online learning?
 
3. What is the respondents level of happiness index?
 
 
4. What is the significant relationship between the respondent’s profile and their perception
towards online learning?
 
5. What is the significant relationship between the respondent’s profile and their level of
happiness index?
 
6. What is the significant correlation between the happiness index and online learning?
 
7. What proposed enhancement programs can be made based on the findings of the study?
 Significance of the Study
 
Our study will benefit the future of online learning. The greater good of
having quality education, the main beneficiaries will be the students, they
will be having a more vibrant way of learning, and the teachers. Online
courses teach students how to manage their time better since the student
bears the responsibility of engaging with the course instead of simply
showing up to class on an assigned day and time. As a result, students not
only gain knowledge from the coursework, but they also sharpen their time
management skills. Students often reported that happiness, or positive
feelings like enjoyment or fun, promotes learning.” They cited many reasons
for their positive feelings, including feeling safe and comfortable at school
and having secure relationships with their teachers and their peers
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

sense if determining the Influence of Online Learning towards the
Happiness Index of the Grade 11 University Of Bohol Senior High
School ABM 2 student’s in the school year 2022-2023.
INSTRUMENTS
In gathering the necessary data for the study, standardized questionnaires are formulated
to secure responses from the respondents and are distributed by hand in their respective
classrooms. The questionnaires were distributed to GRADE 11 ABM 2 STUDENTS.
DATA GATHERING PROCEDURE:

Post Pandemic- Covid 19, The University of Bohol opened up

their gates into having a limited face-to-face classes inside
the campus. While abiding the safety protocols enforced
by the government.
Henceforward, we gathered data face-face while following
the Health and safety protocols.

Statistical Treatment
With the data collected, Researchers used three formulas in computing
and interpreting the Impact and Relationship of Online Learning and
Happiness Index.
Frequency Percentage Formula -is used to interpret the percentage of
the number of respondents falling under a category by the total of
respondents.
 Table 3 Happiness Index Scale
SCALING DESCRIPTORS INTERPRETATION

Not happy. If you answered honestly and got a very

STRONGLY DISAGREE
low score, you’re probably seeing yourself and your

1-2 situation as worse than it really is. I recommend

taking the Depression Symptoms test (CES‐D

Questionnaire) at the University of Pennsylvania’s

2 “Authentic Happiness” Testing Center. You’ll have to

register, but this is beneficial because there are a lot

of good tests there and you can re‐take them later

and compare your scores.

Somewhat unhappy. Try some of the exercises

MODERATELY DISAGREE

2-3
on this site like the Gratitude Journal & Gratitude

Lists, or the Gratitude Visit; or take a look at the

“Authentic Happiness” site mentioned

immediately above. Oxford Happiness

Questionnaire 
 SLIGHTLY DISAGREE Not particularly happy or unhappy. A
3-4 score of 3.5 would be an exact

numerical average of happy and

unhappy responses. Some of the

exercises mentioned just above have

been tested in scientific studies and

have been shown to make people

lastingly happier.

Somewhat happy or moderately happy.

SLIGHTLY AGREE
4 Satisfied. This is what the average person

scores.

SLIGHTLY AGREE : Rather happy; pretty happy. Check

4-5 other score ranges for some of my

suggestions.
 MODERATELY AGREE Very happy. Being happy has more
5-6 benefits than just feeling good. It’s

correlated with benefits like health,

better marriages, and attaining your

goals. Check back – I’ll be writing a

post about this topic soon.

STRONGLY AGREE Too happy. Yes, you read that right.

6. Recent research seems to show that

there’s an optimal level of happiness

for things like doing well at work or

school, or for being healthy, and that

being “too happy” may be associated

with lower levels of such things.
