Modular Learning Fatigue Among Students in Ciabu National High School

Abstract

This study focused on the Modular Learning Fatigue among students in Ciabu National High School, Baybay City, Leyte. It aimed to find out the socio-demographic profiles of the respondents, including sex, age, grade level, monthly family income, signs of modular learning fatigue, and the level of modular learning fatigue experienced by the students. The respondents of the study were 211 Junior and Senior high school students enrolled in AY 2021 – 2022. The target number of respondents was 30% of each sex and grade level's total population. Stratified sampling was used to split the population of interest into homogeneous subgroups or strata before choosing the research sample. The study used the descriptive method with a questionnaire as a tool for data gathering. Using the survey as a technique, data on socio-demographic profiles, signs of modular learning fatigue, the relationship among socio-demographic profiles, and the level of modular learning fatigue were collected. Descriptive analysis such as frequency, percentage, weighted mean, and Chi-Square test for the relationship on objective four (4) was used. The findings of the study indicated signs of modular learning fatigue in the respondents' mental, physical, social, and emotional aspects. In the relationship between the level of modular learning fatigue and socio-demographic profile, the result was significant between monthly family income and the mental aspect of modular learning fatigue. Furthermore, the relationship was highly significant between the social aspect of modular learning fatigue and the monthly family income. The monthly family income was a significant factor in the modular fatigue experiences of the students, considering that the profile on the students’ family income was categorized as poor. For the rest of the socio-demographic profile—age, sex, and grade level—the relationship between these demographic profiles and the level of modular learning fatigue were not found to be significant.
