Research Methodology
This chapter presents the thorough discussion of the research method used. It focuses on
the sample size, research instruments and sampling technique. It also includes data gathering
procedure and as well as the statistical treatment of data that was used in its quantification.
Research Design
In this study, the researchers have used a descriptive and surveying method to obtain the
information needed in the sub-problems and to address the main goal of the research. These two
methods are some of those effective ways to gather information. Descriptive research involves
the description, recording, and interpretation of the answers given by the respondents. The
questionnaires have served as tools to allow the researchers to easily gather the needed
information that would strengthen the study and produce a productive outcome and become an
instrument to answer the problem. This study covered a total of 30 respondents from chosen
barangays of Sorsogon.
It also used both qualitative and quantitative method particularly in analyzing and
interpreting the gathered information as the results were being tallied and tabulated. With this
The present study collected data from the different barangays of the researchers to avoid
the harm of the pandemic. The respondents of this research consisted of parents who have their
child experience modular distance learning from the barangays of San Ramon Bacon, Bato
Bacon, Gatbo Bacon, Sta. Lucia Bacon, San Bartolome Sta. Magdalena, Basud West District,
Macabari Barcelona, Cawit Casiguran, Casili Gubat and Poblacion Castilla which are all part of
the Province of Sorsogon. The researcher gathered 3 respondents from each barangay in a total
of 30 respondents all.
Sampling Technique
inferences from the sample to the population (Nocon,et. al.,2007). To determine the respondents
of the present investigation, the purposive sampling method of distributing questionnaires was
used and it is comprising of questions that were solely based upon this research’s statement of
the problem. Each question was formulated to address the given problems of the study. This
sampling technique is done by selecting and relies on the judgment of the researcher when
choosing who to participate. Researchers choose some parents from their respective barangays as
a sample and representative for other parents in their response to the researcher’s problem. From
support the research. The questionnaire-checklist was utilized in the collection of the data from
the respondents. This was used because it gathers data faster than any other collection methods.
They just need to comply with and read the instructions to answer the questionnaire- checklist.
Using this, they can easily answer the questionnaire- checklist without difficulty.
After studying samples of questionnaire- checklist from related studies and literatures, the
researchers make and prepared their own questionnaire- checklist. The researchers see to it that
there were enough questions to cover the under the statement of the problem. Then, they
For validation purposes, the questionnaire- checklist was given to 3 persons of a barangay
for them to fill out. The researcher interviewed the respondents to find out their assessment of
The questionnaire- checklist consisted of the sub problems regarding modular distance
learning. The first one is the response of parents about modular type of learning. The second one
is what do they do to support their child’s learning. For number three, strategy taken to ensure
that their child is doing his/her module efficiently. Number four, are their worries on the modular
type of learning. For the fifth one is the difference between the guidance in their child’s learning
during face to face classes and in today’s modular leaning and for the sixth one is their biggest
challenge experience in guiding their child/children on modular learning during this pandemic.
The parents answered the questionnaire by checking two answers on the box for every given
question.
Data Gathering Procedure
permission from the teacher is needed. The researchers wrote the survey questionnaire to be used
for this study. The questions as well as the choices were all based on the related foreign and local
studies that would help prove the existence of the problem. The presented questions in the
questionnaires were checked and validated by the researcher’s subject teacher. With the given
approval and validation, the questionnaire distribution started and purposive sampling was
The chosen parents of the respective barangays were given accordingly and answers were
successfully collected and gathered in order to further support and strengthen the study. The
After retrieving the questionnaires, all the answers given were tabulated and tallied, with
the use of statistical tools for analysis and interpretation of data. After the interpretation, the
gathered results are used to make a conclusion and recommendations for the study.

and summation.
Percentage. Used for identifying the percentage of the frequency. The highest number of
frequency shows the highest percentage and the lowest frequency represents the lowest
