This study aims to know the Perceptions of Grade 11 Senior High School
towards the Limited Face-to-Face Class.
5
Summary of Findings
1. What is the Perception of the Grade 11 students on Limited Face-to-
Face Classes?
The majority of the student’s responses, which is 30%, stated that Limited
face-to-face is more effective than online class. 10% or 3 of the respondents said
that limited face-to-face is dangerous because of the virus.
2. What do Grade 11 students think about face-to-face communication
being the most effective kind of communication?
60% or 18 of the respondents said that face-to-face communication is
being the most effective because of physical interaction between the students
and the teacher is most effective when it comes to learning.
3. What are the perceived benefits derived from learning through face-to-
face classes?
14 or 46.67% of the responders said that Face to face classes is more
effective when it comes to learning. It is easier to learn in face-to-face classes
because there's no distractions, easier to communicate with classmates and
teachers in classes, more interest in learn in face-to-face classes, learn
knowledge and skills.
6
4. What are the advantages and disadvantages of learning face-to-face?
The total of the survey says that 33.33% chose the benefits of face-to-face
classes. The advantages of face-to-face classes is being able to focus more on
the conversation than online classes. The disadvantage of online classes is lack
of equipment, poor internet connection, and distractions.
5. What are the ways to improve the perception of Grade 11 students?
56.67%, or 17 of the respondents, agreed to improve Grade 11 students'
perceptions of reopening a face-to-face even if Corona Virus Disease 19 is not
yet over, as long as they follow health and safety protocols.
Conclusions
Based on the summary findings, the following conclusions can be drawn
1. Grade 11 Senior High School Students' Opinions Face-to-face
instruction is more effective than online instruction in some circumstances.
2. Face-to-face communication is the most important and quite useful
when it comes to learning
3. Face-to-face learning is more effective since students are not distracted
while learning
4. Face-to-face classes allow students to focus better, but online classes
have more interruptions.
7
5. Students agreed to improve grade 11 student’s perceptions of
reopening a face to face even if corona virus disease is not yet over.
Recommendations
1. Use a more concise research questions and an in-depth interview.
2. The respondents should be at least 50% of the population of Grade 11
students in Signal Village National High School.
3. We all know that we cannot avoid the threat of COVID-19, thus the students
must follow the safety protocols by wearing masks, hand washing, and doing
social distancing in school. It is the best way to prevent the virus from spreading
rapidly in the school.
4. The government must support the schools in reopening of face-to-face
classes. It is the best way to learn from a student without any distractions,
internet interruption, or lack of gadgets.
5. The students must be vaccinated before attending in limited face-to-face to
give them protection from the virus.

CHAPTER I
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
This research shows the Perception of the Grade 11 students in
Senior High School students in Signal Village National High School towards the
Limited Face-to-face classes. The researchers conducted this study for us to
learn about the Grade 11 students’ perception to limited face-to-face classes
that were being implemented at this time of pandemic.
The process of teaching and gaining various knowledge, skills, and
abilities is known as education. Preschool, primary school, and secondary
school are the levels in which values are frequently divided. After that, it's either
college, university, or an apprenticeship. At most cases, education takes place
in a school to formally share with a group of other leaning aspirants led by
experts their knowledge and experience This is how most people become adept
in particular areas of life. Though achieving excellence takes a long time.
The traditional classroom, also known as face-to-face instruction, occurs
when an instructor and students of a nonprofit educational institution are in a
space dedicated to instruction and teaching and learning occur at the same
time.
1
The instructor and the learner interact in real time during this type of
learning. In addition, the students learn from one another. This is one of the
most popular and traditional methods of imparting knowledge. Face-to-face
learning has a set time and date for the session to take place, and students are
responsible for their own progress. It assists students in better understanding
and remembering the lessons taught in the classroom.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused a lot of disruption,
especially in education, many schools have closed, many schools have had to
change their mode of learning, and many students have had to adjust. The new
modes of learning are online, blended, and modular learning, but many people
chose the online/blended modality of learning. Many students suffered as a
result of these changes, and some adjusted quickly. These new learning
modalities have both positive and negative effects on students. But now that the
COVID-19 cases have been decreasing steadily along with the Alert Levels, the
return of face-to-face classes to the identified as low risk areas for the
coronavirus has started the limited face-to-face classes after 20 months of
blended learning. The Department of Education, along with other government
agencies and partners, made strides in reintroducing face-to-face classes amid
the challenges of the pandemic.
This focus of this study is to know what are the different perspective of the
students towards the limited face-to-face classes. With this research, the
parents, teachers and/or guardians of students may anticipate the viewpoint of
2
the students and help them to be prepared with the return of the traditional
learning.
Background of the study
COVID-19 has put our lives into disarray in numerous ways, not the least
of which is education. Because of the pandemic and international closure, a
rapid transition to distance schooling became necessary. At the height of the
COVID-19 outbreak in early April, more than 1.5 billion pupils, or 91.3% of
global enrollments, were directly impacted by school closures. School officials,
instructors, and parents hurried to address children' educational requirements
with online learning as a result of so many pupils being forced out of
classrooms. It is no longer a question of if but when we will switch from in-
person to online learning. It's now an issue of how successfully we'll be able to
switch gears fast if the necessity arises.
From the confines of their homes, teachers and administrators were put to
the task of revising and adapting course syllabi and requirements as they
shifted to alternative or remote teaching modalities, both synchronous and
asynchronous. Where students and teachers had access to electronic devices
and reliable internet connections, learning managements systems such as
Zoom, Canva, Moodle, and applications like Google Hangouts, were used. But
where students had limited access to computers or unreliable access to the
3
Internet, teachers and students used smartphones to exchange messages,
notes and materials, through text Facebook Messenger
In some instances, these arrangements became unsustainable and some
schools and universities had to suspend remote or online classes because the
uneven socioeconomic status of students affected their access to these
modalities of learning. Also, concerns regarding the mental health of both
students and teachers affected by the uncertainty, became another reason to
suspend online classes. And when the virus started to decrease, the
Department of Education (DepEd) decided to reopen a face-to-face classes but
it is only limited for the safety of students.
According to studies, many students at home/living space have undergone
psychological and emotional distress and have been unable to engage
productively. Some educational institutions introduced new strategies to reduce
the psychosocial burden associated with online learning during home
confinement. However, students still had a considerable burden of
psychological distress, requiring further preventive measures to maintain their
psychological well-being during future outbreak events. One explanation for this
might be the extended time spent working alone on computer screens,
accompanied by the anxiety of being quarantined, adapting to an
unprecedented situation and absorbing news about the numbers of confirmed
COVID-19 cases or resultant deaths. Lack of necessary infrastructure, limited
communication with the teacher, lack of face-to-face communication with
colleagues, and low students’ motivation to engage with online learning were
4
potential factors that affected students’ physical and mental well-being during
the pandemic. Therefore, in addition to sustaining students’ emotional and
psychological well-being offering stress counselling will be essential to continue
to provide a reliable educational environment and to prepare a safe future for
students.
The continuous sitting that online learning often requires could also have
an impact on the youth. In learning process nonverbal modes of
communication, relationship building and interaction may seem very small
things but these things are very effective. There are many researches that tell
us that degree of online education is not as much valuable as of face-to-face
education. In face-to-face education students take social advantages of social
interaction among other people which are from different background and have
different culture.
The best type of education with good quality is face-to-face education and
learning in groups. This is the traditional type of education that has a practical
sense. Online education is the mode of education that is demand of this era but
due to the lack of interaction it is not considered as good as face-to-face
education. There are so many advantages of face-to-face education that are
are discussed and these advantages cannot be denied.
From this study, the researchers will be given a chance to know the
standpoint of Senior High School students from Signal Village National about
the limited face-to-face classes that were being implemented at this time of
pandemic.
5
Theoretical Framework
The advent of online education has made it possible for students with busy
lives and limited flexibility to obtain a quality education. (Paul & Jefferson, 2019)
However, the student experience in online classes is a different one from in
traditional face-to-face classes, and patterns of engagement seem to differ
between the two (Robinson and Hullinger, 2008). For example, Otter et al.
(2013) found that students in online-only classes felt more disconnected from
their peers and lecturers, more obliged to be self-directed in their studies, and
less aided by their lecturer, than their lecturers believe them to be. Students can
also feel daunted by the technological expectations of online study, especially if
they start off without sufficient technical knowledge or support (Zhang and
Perris, 2004; Holley and Oliver, 2010).
Face-to-face learning is much better compared to online learning because,
as the Stanford researchers found out, “in-person communications make our
brains happier” (BusinessMirror, 2022). Online classes are convenient, but they
lack the human connection and interaction with instructors that you get in a live
classroom. Related to the importance of direct group interaction is the
community aspect of face-to-face contact (Chen, 1997). Chen found that
dialogue not only allows students to assess their learning but also to develop a
sense of community with other students; this sense of community can alleviate
the problem of isolation often reported by distance students. Kirkup & Jones
6
(1996) agree and state that students need dialogue with their teachers and with
other students in order to consolidate and check on their own learning.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
Foreign Literature
According to a study done in Zimbabwe Open University, (Mpofu, Mafa
and Chimhenga, 2013) face to face has an advantage in learning, namely:
ability of the students to meet with other students for study groups, ability to
know tutors, and better achievement in academics. In addition, the authors went
on by showing that, face to face has been integrated in the learning
programmes in which students are expected to interact, discuss and debate
issues or questions they had identified during their studies under Open and
Distance Learning. Further, Howell et al. (2003), in his study has shown the
significance of combining distance education and face to face in bringing the
general development of knowledge to students by meeting with their fellow
students as well as meeting and interacting with their tutors. However,
combination between face to face and distance learning has some challenges.
Face-to-face courses are perceived by students as offering higher levels of
interaction, both with the instructor and with other students in the class, than
online courses. Roblyer (1999) found that one’s preference for face-to-face
courses was associated with how much one valued interaction and
communication with the instructor and other students, thus suggesting
that face-to-face courses are perceived as more interactive.
11
Bejerano (2008) critiqued lost opportunities for interaction in online
courses, pointing out that lower levels of interaction generally lead to less
academic and social integration. When asked to rank levels of interaction in
face-to-face courses, hybrid courses, and fully online courses, students tend to
rank face-to-face courses as offering the greatest number of opportunities for
feedback, as well as the most immediate instructor feedback (Faux & Black-
Hughes, 2000; Leasure et al., 2000). It is important to note that there has been
little research comparing actual differences in student participation in online
courses with face-to-face courses (Rocca, 2010). The other modality,
classroom teaching, is a wellestablished instructional medium in which teaching
style and structure have been refined over several centuries. Face-to-face
instruction has numerous benefits not found in its online counterpart (Xu and
Jaggars, 2016).
As mentioned by Salcedo (2010), classroom instruction is extremely
dynamic. Traditional classroom teaching provides real-time face-to-face
instruction and sparks innovative questions. It also allows for immediate teacher
response and more flexible content delivery. Online instruction dampens the
learning process because students must limit their questions to blurbs, then
grant the teacher and fellow classmates time to respond.
As stated by Roval and Jordan (2004), traditional classroom learning is a
well-established modality. Some students are opposed to change and view
online instruction negatively. These students may be technophobes, more
comfortable with sitting in a classroom taking notes than sitting at a computer
12
absorbing data. Other students may value face-to-face interaction, pre and post
class discussions, communal learning, and organic student-teacher bonding.
Local Literature
According to an article by Philip Joseph D Sarmiento, Cora Lyn T
Sarmiento, and Rina Lyn B Tolentino (2021), School reopening for face-to-face
interactions must be carefully planned to ensure the safety of students as well
as teachers and school staff in a staged fashion especially in following physical
distancing. Planning and execution of school health protocols during this
pandemic must be supported by the truthful data being given by various
institutions. The World Health Organization (WHO) has published a checklist to
support school reopening and the preparation for the possible resurgence of
COVID-19.10 WHO cited that ‘The checklist is aligned with, and builds upon,
existing COVID-19-related WHO guidelines and is structured around protective
measures. The checklist helps policymakers and school officials to enhance
compliance and adherence to public health protocols in the time of the
pandemic. School health protocols in conducting face-to-face classes must be
planned carefully following national and international guidelines to ensure that
students will be safe or at least mitigate the effects of COVID-19. After all,
students’ live matter as education does to them. That is the responsibility of
every government to ensure its fulfillment.
13
Foreign Study
According to research about A Comparative Analysis of Student
Performance in an Online vs. Face-to-Face Environmental Science Course
From 2009 to 2016 by Jasmine Paul and Felicia Jefferson, classroom
instruction is extremely dynamic. Traditional classroom teaching provides real-
time face-to-face instruction and sparks innovative questions. It also allows for
immediate teacher response and more flexible content delivery. The classroom
setting provides more motivation, encouragement, and direction. Even if a
student wanted to quit during the first few weeks of class, he/she may be
deterred by the instructor and fellow students.
According to a Research titled How Effective Is Online Learning? What the
Research Does and Doesn’t Tell Us by Susanna Loeb published 20 th of March
2020, based on the findings of this study, Being in person with teachers and
other students creates social pressures and benefits that can help motivate
students to engage. Some students do as well in online courses as in in-person
courses, some may actually do better, but, on average, students do worse in
the online setting, and this is particularly true for students with weaker academic
backgrounds. Students who struggle in in-person classes are likely to struggle
even more online. She stated that while the research on virtual schools in K-12
education doesn’t address these differences directly, a study of college students
14
that she worked on with Stanford colleagues found very little difference in
learning for high-performing students in the online and in-person settings. On
the other hand, lower performing students performed meaningfully worse in
online courses than in in-person courses.
According to the study of Iwona Miliszewska of Victoria University,
Melbourne, Australia (2007), students in face-to-face classroom settings see
and work with one another and get to know each other well through the learning
process. Online communications, on the other hand, lack elements inherent in
face-to-face communication including context perception, eye contact, and a
parallel visual and gestural information; the value of those elements is strongly
embedded in some cultures, including the Confucian heritage cultures (Chase,
Macfadyen, Reeder, & Roche, 2002). Ziguras & Rizvi (2001) argued that
fullyonline global delivery has failed to capture the imagination of students and
teachers in the same way as it has excited senior administrators (p. 2). They
looked at the existing transnational programs in South East Asia and concluded
that distance education programs with no local support had not been popular;
and they found that Australian institutions offering transnational programs in the
region have learned to appreciate the importance of local presence. Students,
especially in South East Asia, respect teachers and want and expect to be
taught by teachers; those transnational providers that intend to rely more
heavily on online teaching and learning run the risk of eroding students’
perception of quality (Ziguras & Rizvi, 2001, p. 10). Related to the importance
of direct group interaction is the community aspect of face-to-face contact
15
(Chen, 1997). Chen found that dialogue not only allows students to assess
their learning but also to develop a sense of community with other students; this
sense of community can alleviate the problem of isolation often reported by
distance students. Kirkup & Jones (1996) agree and state that students need
dialogue with their teachers and with other students in order to consolidate and
check on their own learning (p. 278). Moreover, they list the inability to offer
dialogue in the way that conventional face-to-face education does as one of
three most significant weaknesses of distance education; the inflexibility of
content and study method and the isolation and individualization of the student
is cited as the remaining two weaknesses.
While according to the study about How Countries Are Reopening Schools
During the Pandemic by Claire Felter and Lindsay Maizland (2020), as the
coronavirus pandemic unfolded, primary and secondary schools closed in
nearly every country, affecting more than 1.5 billion learners, according to
UNESCO. In many places, educators quickly shifted to remote teaching with the
hope of salvaging the academic year. Since then, some countries have
cautiously reopened schools with mixed results. Others don’t plan to resume in-
person classes until 2021. But lack of access to technology and concerns about
widening achievement gaps have forced a seemingly impossible decision onto
school leaders: reopen their doors and risk new outbreaks of the virus, or
continue virtual alternatives that could leave students further behind and
suffering from social isolation.
16
Local Study
According to the study entitled, Filipino Children Struggle To Study At
Home Due To Distractions; Prefer Face-To-Face Classes by Franz Lewin
Embudo, Almost all of the students interviewed for the research prefer face-to-
face classes as they do not find the home to be conducive to learning. Some of
the problems cited were lack of internet access and distractions like social
media and gaming. Their research clearly shows that many Filipino children
struggled to study at home during the COVID-19 pandemic due to lack of
motivation as well as social media and gaming distractions. This results
provides contextual pieces of evidences that children and adolescents struggled
to keep up with the new learning setup, environment, pedagogy, modality, and
technology changes. It is recommended that these learning difficulties should
be considered as inputs for further development of the current educational
purposes.
According to a research about Cautious and gradual reopening of limited
face-to-face classes in Philippine tertiary schools by Jose Ma W Gopez, a
recent correspondence tackled the adherence of secondary schools to health
protocols as a significant factor in the delivery of face-to-face classes, following
national and international guidelines in mitigating the effects of the coronavirus
disease (COVID-19). This article highlights how, in the Philippines, the
Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and the Department of Health have
prepared a joint memorandum circular regarding the guidelines on the gradual
17
reopening of limited face-to-face classes of higher education institutions (HEIs).
Face-to-face classes are limited to students of medicine and allied health
courses. Campuses in areas under general community quarantine and modified
general community quarantine are only allowed to reoperate physically with
programs on medicine, nursing, medical technology, medical laboratory
science, physical therapy, midwifery and public health.
Synthesis
(2013) Mpofu, Mafa and Chimhenga of Zimbabwe Open University stated
that face to face has an advantage in learning, including the ability of the
students to meet with other students for study groups, ability to know tutors, and
better achievement in academics. (2010) Salcedo mentioned that classroom
instruction is extremely dynamic. Traditional classroom teaching provides real-
time face-to-face instruction and sparks innovative questions. It also allows for
immediate teacher response and more flexible content delivery. (2021)
According to Philip Joseph D Sarmiento, Cora Lyn T Sarmiento, and Rina Lyn B
Tolentino School reopening for face-to-face interactions must be carefully
planned to ensure the safety of students as well as teachers and school staff in
a staged fashion especially in following physical distancing. The World Health
Organization (WHO) has published a checklist to support school reopening and
the preparation for the possible resurgence of COVID-19.
18
(2020) Susanna Loeb based on the findings of this study, being in person
with teachers and other students creates social pressures and benefits that can
help motivate students to engage. (2007) Iwona Miliszewska of Victoria
University,Melbourne, Australia students in face-to-face classroom settings see
and work with one another and get to know each other well through the learning
process. Online communications, on the other hand, lack elements inherent in
face-to-face communication including context perception, eye contact, and a
parallel visual and gestural information; the value of those elements is strongly
embedded in some cultures, including the Confucian heritage cultures.(2020)
Claire Felter and Lindsay Maizland the study about How Countries Are
Reopening Schools During the Pandemic , as the coronavirus pandemic
unfolded, primary and secondary schools closed in nearly every country,
affecting more than 1.5 billion learners, according to UNESCO. In many places,
educators quickly shifted to remote teaching with the hope of salvaging the
academic year. Filipino Children Struggle To Study At Home Due To
Distractions; Prefer Face-To-Face Classes by Franz Lewin Embudo, Almost all
of the students interviewed for the research prefer face-to-face classes as they
do not find the home to be conducive to learning. Some of the problems cited
were lack of internet access and distractions like social media and gaming.
Jose Ma W Gopez stated that a recent correspondence tackled the adherence
of secondary schools to health protocols as a significant factor in the delivery of
face-to-face classes, following national and international guidelines in mitigating
the effects of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19).

CHAPTER IV
PRESENTATIONS, ANALYSIS, AND INTERPRETATION OF THE DATA
Table 2
Tabulated responses of the senior high school students in the Questions:
“What are your thoughts about limited face-to-face?”
Responses F %
Limited face-to-face is more 9 30
effective than online class
It is okay to have limited face-to- 8 26.67
face as long as students have
vaccination and school follows the
safe protocols
3 10
Limited face-to-face is complicated
Limited face-to-face is more helpful 4 13.33
especially to those who have
unstable networks and no gadgets.
Limited face-to-face is a great 3 10
opportunity to bring back the old
normal with physical interaction and
without using gadgets in class.
Limited face-to-face is dangerous 3 10
because of the virus
Total 30 100
Table 2 shows that 30% of the respondents thought that limited face-to-
face is more effective than online class. Second, it is okay to have limited face-
to-face access as long as students have vaccination and school follow the safe
protocols at 26.67%. Third, they thought that limited face-to-face is complicated
22
at 10%. Next the fourth, limited face-to-face is more helpful especially to those
who have unstable networks and no gadgets at 13.33%. Fifth, Limited face-to-
face is a great opportunity to bring back the old normal with physical interaction
and without using gadgets in time of class at 10%. Lastly, 10% of the
respondents thought that limited face-to-face is dangerous because of the virus.
According to Dr. Rex Casiple(2021), “Limited face-to-face delivery by the higher
education institutions is not mandatory. Students who opted not to attend face
to face classes will be provided with alternatives close to the quality of learning
as experienced through face-to-face activities. Students who preferred and
allowed to attend limited face-to-face classes should have medical insurance
that covers medical expenses related to COVID-19. They shall strictly adhere to
the health and safety protocols of their school and be transparent in declaring
their and their family members’ health conditions.”
Table 3
“What do you think about face-to-face communication being the most effective?”
Responses F %
Physical interaction between the 18 60
students and the teacher is most
effective when it comes to
learning.
Able to talk clearly, focus in their 6 20
study and covey facial expression
with the studies they learn from
their class.
Interacting with one another 5 16.67
helps in making a smooth and
better communication
It allows to see how the action 1 13.33
23
aligns with the words and
enhances credibility.
Total 30 100
Table 3 shows 60% of the respondent’s state that physical interaction
between the students and teacher is most effective when it comes to learning.
Second, 20% say that they are able to talk clearly, focus on their study and
convey facial expression with the studies they learn from their class. Third,
interacting with one another helps in making a smooth and better
communication at 16.67%. Lastly, it allows to see how the action aligns with the
words and enhances credibility at 3.33%. According to Kemp ang Grieve, 2014,
“The classroom setting provides more motivation, encouragement, and
direction. Even if a student wanted to quit during the first few weeks of class,
he/she may be deterred by the instructor and fellow students. F2F instructors
may be able to adjust the structure and teaching style of the class to improve
student retention.”
Table 4
Tabulated responses of the Senior High School Students in the Questions:
“As a students, do you think that face-to-face learning is more effective than
online learning? Why or why not?”
Responses F %

Total 30 100
Table 4 shows 40% of the respondents stated that they can interact
personally without having a problem about their internet connection. Second,
26.67% respondents stated that they can clearly understand or comprehend the
message. Third, 20% of the respondents stated that they can make more at
ease in attending face-to-face classes. Fourth, 10% of the respondents stated
that instructors can better measure the students understanding and interest.
Lastly, 3.33% of respondents say equal, because it’s based on the students on
how they want to learn. And according to the Headspace, Face to face learning
is more effective than online because the teacher and the student meet in a set
place for a set time, for either one-on-one learning or, most commonly in group
class lessons. And face to face learning is a way to learn knowledge and skills
because it often combines different ways of learning including writing, reading,
discussion, presentations, projects, group work, film clips, demonstration and
practice. And also, you’ll be able to concentrate harder on your learning
because there’ll be less distraction than if you were at home and You may feel
more comfortable and learn more easily in a familiar, traditional classroom
situation.

Table 5
“Is there a variation in how students learn in each class? What are the
advantages and disadvantages of face-to-face and online discussions?”
Responses F %
Yes, Face-to-face classes have the 10 33.33
advantage of being able to focus more
on discussion than online classes.
The absence of internet, devices, and 10 33.33
distractions are all disadvantages to
online learning.
Yes, one of the benefits of face-to-face 7 23.33
classes is that you can interact with
other students, which is not possible in
an online session

sessions is that you have to spend the
expense of getting a vehicle
Total 30 100
Table 5 shows 33.33 % of respondents says Yes, face-to-face classes
offer the advantage of being able to focus more on conversation than online
classes. Second The lack of internet, equipment, and distractions are all
downsides of online learning, according to the second 33.33%. Third, 23.33 %
think that one of the advantages of face-to-face lessons is that you can connect
with other students, which is not feasible in an online session. Finally, 10% of
respondents said that the disadvantage of face-to-face meetings is that you
must pay for a car. Learn all there is to know about online education (both good
and bad). The term “new normal” has become popular since the pandemic, and
26
the new normal in education is the rising usage of online learning resources.
The COVID-19 epidemic has prompted innovative approaches to education.
Educational institutions all across the world are turning to online learning
platforms to continue the process of educating pupils. The new normal currently
is a modified educational idea, with online learning at the heart of it. Students
and schools all across the world now use digital learning as a crucial resource.
This is a whole new manner of learning that many educational institutions have
had to adapt. Online learning is currently used not just for academic purposes,
but also for learning extracurricular activities for students. The demand for
online learning has increased dramatically in recent months and will continue to
do so in the future.

face and online dialogues, 23.33 percent of respondents prefer to respond yes in
an adequate duration. Third, 16.67 percent stated they could recall details and
“who said what.” Forth, 13.33 percent chose face-to-face learning because it is a
very effective way to learn knowledge and skills because it typically incorporates
several learning methods such as writing, reading, discussion, presentations,
projects, group work, film clips, demonstration, and practice. Finally, 13.33
percent of students indicated they prefer face-to-face learning situations largely
or entirely.

posed an unprecedented challenge in education, leading to the suspension of
face-to-face teaching (UNESCO, 2020). Recent work has identified some
variables that intervene in the online education process, such as the correct
adaptation of teaching to the online format, including classes, assessment
methods, and teacher support (Alnusairat et al., 2020; Linh & Trang, 2020); the
quality of the classes received (Al-Balas et al., 2020; Amir et al., 2020); the
28
conditions of students’ workspace (Gelles et al., 2020; Son et al., 2020); and
the connection with other students and teachers (Elmer et al., 2020; Radu et al.,
2020). However, there is a knowledge gap in how these variables are related to
students’ academic development and whether having been in a prolonged
lockdown might have affected them. Furthermore, educational and
psychological research has raised concerns about students’ mental health as
they have had to suddenly switch to online learning systems and follow classes
under lockdown restrictions. Investigations pointed out that students have
experienced an increase in stress, anxiety, and depression (Aslan et al., 2020;
Odriozola-González et al., 2020; Saravanan et al., 2020; Son et al., 2020), and
have felt some negative feelings intensified, such as fear, worry, or boredom
(Aristovnik et al., 2020; Son et al., 2020). Several studies have highlighted the
protective effect that the connection with the rest of the academic community
can have on anxiety, depression, and stress (Elmer et al., 2020; Magson et al.,
2021; Procentese et al., 2020). In addition, while school is a place for teens to
socialize and form friendships, not all social interactions are positive. Students
may become victims of bullying at school. For these students, virtual learning
offers an escape from depression and anxiety caused by the fear of being
bullied. For other students, virtual classes can also provide an escape from the
constant weight of peer pressure.

headspace face-to-face learning is the most effective way to learn knowledge
and skills because it often combines different of learning and it says here that
one of the advantages or benefits of face-to-face classes is you’ll be able to
concentrate harder on your learning because there will be less distractions than if

7%. Individually we can distinguish that many students encountered challenges
when learning face-to-face compared to online learning. For Ponton, Carr, and
Confessore (2000), learning is a function of effort and resilience, where individual
approaches to learning involve students actively engaging with their studies in
the face of challenges such as the perceived lack of time. Such a time
management strategy is referred to as “planning behaviour” (Claessens et al.,
2004) where effective time management involves understanding the effort
required to address the many aspects of learning and is enhanced through
motivation and goal orientation (Braxton, Hirschy, & McClendon, 2004; Law,
Sandnes, Jian, & Huang, 2009; Martin, 2008). Individual student characteristics
such as their motivational drivers, their self-control, and their need for attention
impact their capacity to persist in times of perceived difficulty (Braxton et al.,
2004) and extensive course load and the various challenges in academic
curricula necessitate the use of effective study strategies (Deshler et al., 2001).

no, because it just makes a problem worse. In an article in the Journal of Public
Health by Jose Ma W Gopez, the adherence of secondary schools to health
protocols as a significant factor in the delivery of face-to-face classes, following
national and international guidelines in mitigating the effects of the coronavirus
disease (COVID-19). This article highlights how, in the Philippines, the
Commission on Higher Education (CHED) and the Department of Health have
prepared a joint memorandum circular regarding the guidelines on the gradual
reopening of limited face-to-face classes of higher education institutions (HEIs).
Table 11

face meetings, would you become more innovative?”

Total 30 100
Table 11 shows 80% of the respondents say yes. Second, 13.33% of the
respondents say maybe. Lastly, 6.67% of the respondents say no.
However, they can adjust to the new situation. According to Carter et al., 2016,
“A detailed learning design process, with various active learning activities
leading to student engagement and development of current ideas, skills and
33
knowledge, is the challenge for all educators. Developing an e-learning course
that does not overwhelm students but provides them with opportunities to glean
the essence of the material and internalize the knowledge to eventually
translate that knowledge to practice is the ultimate outcome. To achieve this
outcome, an effective design and implementation of the learning process to
promote and inspire positive experiences for the student, and educator, is
fundamental.”

CHAPTER V
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This chapter presents the summary of the findings, conclusion drawn and
the formulated recommendations as an outgrowth of the study. This study is all
about “Perceptions of Grade 11 Senior High School Students’ in Signal Village
National High School Towards the limited Face-to-Face Class.”
A. Summary of Findings
1. What is the Perception of the Grade 11 students on Limited Face-to-
Face Classes?
The majority of the student’s responses, which is 30%, stated that
Limited face-to-face is more effective than online class. 10% or 3 of the
respondents said that limited face-to-face is dangerous because of the virus.
2. What do Grade 11 students think about face-to-face communication
being the most effective kind of communication?
60% or 18 of the respondents said that face-to-face communication
is being the most effective because of physical interaction between the students
and the teacher is most effective when it comes to learning.
35
face classes?
14 or 46.67% of the responders said that Face to face classes is more
effective when it comes to learning. It is easier to learn in face-to-face classes
because there's no distractions, easier to communicate with classmates and
teachers in classes, more interest in learn in face-to-face classes, learn
knowledge and skills.
The total of the survey says that 33.33% chose the benefits of face-
to-face classes. The advantages of face-to-face classes is being able to focus
more on the conversation than online classes. The disadvantage of online
classes is lack of equipment, poor internet connection, and distractions.
5. What are the ways to improve the perception of Grade 11 students?
56.67%, or 17 of the respondents, agreed to improve Grade 11
students' perceptions of reopening a face-to-face even if Corona Virus Disease
19 is not yet over, as long as they follow health and safety protocols.
B. Conclusions
Based on the summary findings, the following conclusions can be drawn
1. Grade 11 Senior High School Students' Opinions Face-to-face
instruction is more effective than online instruction in some circumstances.
36
2. Face-to-face communication is the most important and quite useful to
the students when it comes to learning
3. Face-to-face learning is more effective since students are not distracted
since while learning
4. Face-to-face classes allow students to focus better, but online classes
have more interruptions.
5. Students agreed to improve grade 11 student’s perceptions of
reopening a face to face even if corona virus disease is not yet over.
C. Recommendations
1. Use more concise research questions and an in-depth interview.
2. The respondents should be at least 50% of the population of Grade 11
students in Signal Village National High School.
3. We all know that we cannot avoid the threat of COVID-19, thus the students
must follow the safety protocols by wearing masks, hand washing, and doing
social distancing in school. It is the best way to prevent the virus from spreading
rapidly in the school.
4. The government must support the schools in reopening face-to-face classes. It
is the best way to learn from a student without any distraction, internet
interruption, or lack of gadgets.
5. The students must be vaccinated before attending in limited face-to-face to
give them protection from the virus.

APPENDIX D
Q1. What are your thoughts about the limited face-to-face?

Respondent 1: Complicated? Because at that time we don't have our own internet connection and the gadgets that we're using with my siblings are limited.
Respondent 2: Limited face to face is beneficial for me because there are days when we will have to confront our teachers and classmates, however in a
traditional classroom, there are so many distractions that might cause your focus to decrease. We can see that there is a chance that a full-time face-to-face will
be reintroduced.
Respondent 3: Not being exposed in school and no interaction with students.
Respondent 4: I think it is a great opportunity to return to face-to-face classes, because everyone could learn without the use of devices, constant internet/load,
and so on. However, given that COVID is still ongoing, I believe it is a bit risky, and students should take extra caution.
Respondent 5: I am having hesitancy and remain half-hearted in this limited face-to-face, If the virus is eradicated or the entire population has been immunized
then I'll go with it.
Respondent 6: For me it’s Good to have a limited face-to-face.
Respondent 7: It's good because we can practice going back to normal mode of learning but we need to know that it's new normal that even we can go back to
face to face classes we need to be more responsible of our health and health of others.
Respondent 8: I think, it's too dangerous for the students to have limited face-to-face since the virus is still existing.
Respondent 9: I think the limited face-to-face class is a good alternative way for our learning setup since it is convenient to at least have 2 or 3 days of f2f class
every week for us to have a physical interaction with other people and less use of gadgets to boost productivity.
Respondent 10: Face-to-face learning is much better compared to online learning
Respondent 11: It is unsafe to have limited face-to-face in a midst of pandemic.
Respondent 12: For me it's still dangerous to commit to face to face class but since other countries are already having a full face to face class, so just be careful
to avoid getting effected by COVID-19.
Respondent 13: It would be much different from the face to face that we knew but at least its still better than online classes
Respondent 14: Face-to-face learning is much better compared to online learning.
Respondent 15: For its fine, because it bringing back the old normal and more effected to learn
Respondent 16: I like face-to-face classes more than online classes.
Respondent 17: My thoughts about limited face-to-face it's okay with me. Since we can also have face-to-face classes. And the number of people with covid is
no longer that large.
Respondent 18: My thoughts about is that going to be more helpful specially to those students that have unstable network.
Respondent 19: I think it is better to have face-to-face when everything is already resolved. Students nowadays like me are already adjusted to the online class
and it is better to have face-to-face classes in the upcoming school year.
Respondent 20: Its okay to me to have limited face to face.
Respondent 21: I thought or I think of the students who do not have wifi or load because they are the problem with limited face to face because only select areas
where the number of viruses is low in the area.
Respondent 22: Face-to-face class should be implemented because it’s hard for students with no gadgets and load for internet access to attend online classes.
It is also hard for slow learner students to keep up with the lessons in online learning.
Respondent 23: Face-to-face learning is much better compared to online learning because, as the Stanford researchers found out, “in-person communications
make our brains happier.” In a classroom setting, teachers can manage their topics very well because there is no longer a need to compress their topics to fit
the modules.
Respondent 24: I think face-to-face is much better than online classes because students can learn well and enjoy the time of studying.
Respondent 25: My thoughts about the limited face-to-face is that it would really help to the students specially to those who work and wants to study too.
Respondent 26: Limited face-to-face only applies when the school is ready, and the case of covid-19 is not that high. I think limited face-to-face will be
successful if the students teachers and stuff will follow the protocols.
Respondent 27: I think it is ok to have a limited face to face as long as the students know how to practice the healthy protocols
Respondent 28: My thoughts about face-to-face is i think it's more effective when it comes to learning.
Respondent 29: It is alright to have limited face to face classes as long as the students that will be attending are immunize so at least they have protection from
threat covid-19, and for students that don't want to participate in face-to-face
they should have the freedom of choice on what type of learning they prefer because we can't be so sure right now that it's totally safe out there.
Respondent 30: for me I am in favor in limited face to face classes as long as the government announced it. Particularly in level 1 and 2, and as long as the
students are fully vaccinated.
Q2. What do you think about face-to-face communication being the most effective?
Respondent 1: Yes, because there's a physical interaction between the students and the subject teacher, they can observe if we truly understand the lesson
that he/she discuss to us. And it's hard to observe if we truly understand the lesson when online class because we can simply google it. And in my own point of
view, I am more active in face-to-face classes than online class.
Respondent 2: Yes, Because Face to face communication is very effective, in my opinion, we may convey facial emotions with the words or studies we hear or
learn from other communicators, making it very easy to understand individuals personally.
Respondent 3: Yes, because we are able to talk each other clearly.
Respondent 4: Yes, Face-to-face communication is considerably more effective because we are conversing with our peers in person, there are no interruptions,
and we are not separated and/or far away from each other. As a result, we could better exchange ideas.
Respondent 5: Face-to-face learning is much better compared to an online learning because in a classroom setting, teachers can manage their topics very well
because there is no longer a need to compress their topics to fit the modules
Respondent 6: For me it would be more effective than modular distant learning
Respondent 7: In face-to-face classes, we can communicate with each other more clearly because we don't have problems like poor internet connections in
Online Classes.
Respondent 8: Face-to-face has advantage or great impact on communication since we can interact with one another.
Respondent 9: For me, face-to-face class communication is the most effective because we can clearly understand or comprehend the message that our
teachers or classmates want to convey by observing their reactions, tone, and emotions while talking.
Respondent 10: Face-to-face communication is often more effective than written or audio-only conversations
Respondent 11: Face-to-face is more effective because we understand the lesson.
Respondent 12: You'll be able to talk to your prof and classmates personally and be able to know each other.
Respondent 13: The students can focus more on their studies. It would lessen the distractions
Respondent 14: Face-to-face communication is often more effective, This is because seeing one another helps us understand each other better.
Respondent 15: Yes, Because face to face communication is effective way to learn knowledge and skills
Respondent 16: Face-to-face communication is the most effective compared to online classes as you can interact with your friends and teachers personally.
Respondent 17: I think about the face-to-face communication being the most effective good way to talk face to face. So that it is not difficult for each person to
communicate. Unlike the online class, it is difficult to contact other classmates.
46
Respondent 18: It makes the students to be more productive in studying.
Respondent 19: Yes, because there are advantages when studying face to face like you have a physical interaction with your classmates and teachers and it is
easier to communicate with them.
Respondent 20: I do agree because this is where the teacher and student meet in a set place
Respondent 21: For me face to face classes is more effective because it often combines different ways of learning
Respondent 22: Yes, because Face-to-face communication allows the other person to see how your actions align with your words and enhances your credibility.
It’s far easier to build stronger relationships face to face.
Respondent 23: Yes, Face-to-face communication is often more effective than written or audio-only conversations. This is because seeing one another allows
us to pick up on nonverbal cues and body language. And because a lot of communication is nonverbal, being able to see each other helps us understand each
other better. The distinction of being able to see the other party or parties in a conversation. It allows for a better exchange of information since both speaker
and listener are able to see and interpret body language and facial expressions.
Respondent 24: For me it's actually right because communication works most effectively if we're talk personally.
Respondent 25: I think it's true because face to face communication is more effective than online class. Students can express themselves more.
Respondent 26: Face to face communication is often effective than online conversation this is because same one another allow us to interact on other
classmate or even our teachers
Respondent 27: Face communication is most effective because this can help if you share their ideas and thoughts about learning.
Respondent 28: Face to face communication really helps in making a smooth and better communication because you understand each other way better and
there's also a quick response
Respondent 29: Face to face communication in my opinion be superior to all other forms of communication. Communication has several advantages, including
ability a person specialization donation emotion and body language of each aid in better understanding the message it enables users to comprehend the
context in which the speaker speaking is the taking it is the most effective approach to improve communication.
Respondent 30: Face to face communication is most effective from other type of communication because explaining is easier and that way and you can literally
see the motion and reaction of person you are talking to you can also avoid misinterpretation and misunderstanding.
Q3. As a student, do you think that face-to-face learning is more effective
than online learning? Why or why not?
Respondent 1: Yes, I do think so, because there some factors that we need to consider during online learning like the noise environment and difficulty to focus.
And honestly, I’m more active in face-to-face classes.
Respondent 2: Face-to-face learning is very effective, in my opinion, because we may convey facial emotions with the words or studies we hear or learn from
other communicators, making it very easy to understand individuals personally. and we can actually see what we are learning about without no delays or lag.
Respondent 3: Yes, because we can follow what the teacher is teaching to us, unlike online classes, it is choppy sometimes.
Respondent 4: Yes, because face-to-face learning allows instructors to better measure students’ understanding and interest, as well as develop group
enthusiasm for a subject.
Respondent 5: Yes, as a student, I want to push myself to study more effectively and fairly. Furthermore, in face-to-face classes, it is easier to engage with our
classmates, resulting in more effective communication. I also find online classes exhausting because I'm constantly in a setting where I'm supposed to relax and
decompress. Face-to-face lessons are more productive in my opinion since we can learn, study, and collaborate without interruptions or distractions.
Respondent 6: Yes, because for me it would be more effective than modular distance learning
Respondent 7: For me, it’s equal based on how students wants to learn, they can learn whatever situations they are in. Face to face and Online classes have
their own advantages and disadvantages that affects students and teachers.
Respondent 8: Yes. In face-to-face, you can interact lively with your co-students and also teachers, also you don't have to worry in terms of your connection
(wifi, data etc.)
Respondent 9: For me, face-to-face class communication is the most effective because we can clearly understand or comprehend the message that our
teachers or classmates want to convey by observing their reactions, tone, and emotions while talking.
Respondent 10: The Advantages of face-to-face Learning in the Classroom
Respondent 11: I prefer f2f IF. IF it’s Covid-free
Respondent 12: Why, because you can learn a lot to face to face class rather than online classes that only have limited time.
Respondent 13: The distractions would lessen and limited data or internet would not be a problem anymore
Respondent 14: Face-to-face learning is more effective compared to online, because nowadays most of the students pay more attention unto social media
instead of doing school works.
Respondent 15: face to face is effective because you can’t focus on online learning and you didn’t follow sometimes because of slow connection
Respondent 16: Yes, face-to-face is more effective than online learning. Aside from interacting with people personally, I can focus more when the class is being
held in classrooms.
Respondent 17: For now, yes. Face-to-face learning is more effective than online learning. Because we can learn better and understand what the teacher is
saying. When online class because there are others, whose net is slow and there is not enough money to load for online class.
Respondent 18: Because You'll be able to concentrate harder on your learning because there'll be less distraction than if you were at home. You may feel more
comfortable and learn more easily in a familiar, traditional classroom situation.
Respondent 19: For me, it is face-to-face because you can tackle your problems with your teachers and classmates more efficiently, and it is easier to
understand when you have interaction with them than in online classes wherein you can’t see each other and have so many distractions and internet/technical
problems.
Respondent 20: Yes, because teachers can see us and teach us personally
Respondent 21: to me, face to face is more effective because in the online class, it’s like you just studied for cats, you can’t learn because online, it’s hard to
adjust because while you’re in class, you suddenly lose power and load face to face, there’s more to learn than online learning
Respondent 22: To start, it is easier to engage in person than through your computer. As much as a student may try, there will always be distractions right at
their fingertips. When at home and not in a school setting, people tend to unwind and become lazy since they have the comfort of their own property. Online
learning requires much more discipline and self-motivation to stay on task. Students have to take time to study and apply what they are learning without being in
the setting of a classroom.
Respondent 23: Yes, Because I think that Distance learning has the potential to be just as effective as traditional face-to-face instruction. A familiar, traditional
classroom setting may make you feel more at ease and facilitate learning.
Respondent 24: To be honest I’m really comfortable learning online and I see how I’m improved and excellent in every subject in online but I find face to face
more effective because we really understand the topic so clearly.
Respondent 25: For my opinion yes, face-to-face learning is more effective than online learning
Respondent 26: Yes, I found face-to-face learning is more effective because we can focus more and you have your teachers to teach you and also to guide you.
Respondent 27: As a student, yes, I find it more effective because online classes more stresses in anxiety for us.
Respondent 28: Personally, I prefer to online learning by now, because we already got used to it but I think it is not more effective than face-to-face classes.
Respondent 29: Yes, and face to face learning is more effective than online learning in many ways, to begin with, engaging in a person is easier that engaging in a
computer there’ll always be a distraction in the fingertips.
Respondent 30: As a student yes, face-to-face is way more effective because the atmosphere at the school is different from home, in home there a lot of
distractions but in the school i can focus more to my teacher and also it is fun to be in the school
Q.4 Is there a variation in how students learn in each class? What are the advantages and disadvantages of face-to-face and online discussions?
Respondent 1: The advantage of f2f class is you can focus on the class and you have a allowance back, while online is, you cannot focus and sometimes you
disconnect and many error in any gadgets.
Respondent 2: In online classes the disadvantages would be the distractions, limited data or internet and the lack of gadgets to use where as in face to face the
only disadvantage that i could think of is the lack of discipline of the students
Respondent 3: Advantages of face-to-face classes are we can focus in the topic when we are in the classroom, I can ask questions right away with the teachers if
I'm having some troubles with his/her topic and we have a fix time in the school. The disadvantage is that too many subs in one day and it's kind of boring
though. The advantages of online classes are we can use google right away, it's an advance technology and we adventure or discover more about how to use the
internet and applied it to online learning mode. The disadvantages as I said in the last question, I'm having a hard time to focus when at my house and we have a
limited gadgets that I can use.
Respondent 4: Some studies show that e-learning does not have the same impact as face-to-face learning
Respondent 5: Advantage of online is you'll be able to control your time (in terms of making your homeworks) disadvantage is lack of devices that needed in
online class. Advantage of face-to-face, you can communicate personally with your classmates, disadvantage (in times of pandemic), still dangerous to go outside
because who knows, you might be able to carry virus on your way home and Higher price of transportation.
47
Respondent 6: The advantages of face-to-face class are interacting with the people in person, can focus more, can manage time effectively, and being
productive. However, the disadvantage of it is if we face-to-face in this time of pandemic, the vehicle fares are kind of cost too much. The advantage of online
learning is that you can go to school even if you are still in the house and even if you don't get ready too much. On the other hand, the disadvantage of it is having
problems with the internet connection and the noises surrounding you.
Respondent 7: Face to face makes us students learn more and the disadvantage is you might have covid for the online, the problem is low internet connection
Respondent 8: Yes. Some learn faster when it was taught by them personally with presentations. Some were more comfortable studying virtually.
Respondent 9: The advantages for face-to-face will understand what the teacher is teaching. In the online class, there are also lessons to be understood,
especially when there is an adequate internet connection. The disadvantage of face-to-face when you are away from home and you are late leaving your house
you will miss school. In the online class you don't need money to attend the class all you have to do is wake up early to attend online class.
Respondent 10: Yes, because there would be less distractions than there would be at home and you would be able to concentrate more and harder and gain
greater understanding, stories and real world examples from your teachers
Respondent 11: Yes, Advantages are they can learned even its lockdown/ no Face 2 Face classes Disadvantages are the internet connections and lack of
gadgets to use
Respondent 12: The advantages of face-to-face classes and online discussions is just like the same wherein we are able to learn in different ways. The
disadvantages of these are, most students are privileged to have technologies for learning.
Respondent 13: Advantage of face-to-face communication:
1) Allows reading of body language.
2) Builds trust and transparency.
3) Enhances productivity.
4) Allows discussion and conclusions.
5) Finding appropriate time.
6) Cost of facilitating a meeting.
7) Ineffective in large meetings.
Advantage of face-to-face learning:
You'll be able to concentrate harder on your learning because there'll be less distraction than if you were at home.
You can gain greater understanding, stories and real-world examples from teachers and other students.
Disadvantage of face-to-face learning:
Face-to-face tuition can be quite expensive.
You will have to pay for your textbooks.
Commuting.
Scheduling.
Organizing and managerial costs.
Professor cost.
Respondent 14: In online discussions, it is capable in accessibilities of time and place, affordability on financial costs such as fare, and improved class
attendance. It also causes an inability to focus on class, technology issues, sense of isolation and cannot be able to manage screen time. In face-to-face
discussions, we will be able to concentrate better, have a better understanding and real-world examples, greater chance of completing activities on time, ang
gain more information through body language and voice. In its downside, it can be can be an unsafe environment for learning as the pandemic still ongoing,
cost more Transportation Expenses, and physical classes follow schedules that make up an eight-hour class per day.
Respondent 15: In face to face there is no limitations in doing activities because they are together but the disadvantage is most students need to get ready early
and leave their home as early as they can especially to students whose school
is far from their home. Online class is so convenient to students because of the time they need to attend class but the disadvantage is there is a lot of
limitations in doing activities in Online classes because teachers and students are not together.
Respondent 16: Face to face Advantage: More Interaction. A classroom environment offers students the opportunity to have face-to-face interactions with their
peers and instructors. Disadvantage: No Flexibility online class Advantage: they are much more convenient and flexible as compared to traditional learning
platforms disadvantage: Excess exposure to screen time. unstable network. distraction
Respondent 17: Yes, in an online discussion you can learn at your own pace, however, there are so many distractions and diversions. On the other hand, Face
to face learning makes us understand and focus better than we are in online, we can digest and retain knowledge easily. Although, it is not as flexible as online
classes and can be an unsafe learning for us, learners.
Respondent 18: The advantages of f2f discussion is being controlled unlike the online class. The teacher cannot see if they were paying attention during
discussions.
Respondent 19: Yes, we all study in different ways. Some students take notes for each session, while others try to focus by removing distracting items from
their environment, and yet others record each lecture so they may review it later. As a result, students' learning styles differ. Face-to-face classes allow for
better communication and collaboration. We're in a setting where studying is the only priority. Face-to-face classes, on the other hand, require us to attend
school; this has an impact on individuals who commute to class; some may even be late as a result. Furthermore, I believe that kids' learning pace or
comprehension is limited. It can be difficult to follow a lesson and return to it later. On the other side, online classes allow you more flexibility in learning. Online
classes make it easy to access websites, especially when specific information is required. However, I believe that online classes make students tired because of
their setting; also, there are distractions and disturbances in the students' environment, making it difficult for them to study despite their efforts to make online
classes effective.
Respondent 20: Owing to clear voice, clear image, and no lags in face-to-face lessons, each topic is very easy to learn; nevertheless, in online classrooms, the
Wi-Fi may disrupt a student or an instructor due to disconnections and lags. Face-to-face classes have the disadvantage of being difficult to search for
information, especially if you don't have data, but online classes allow you to readily look for information on the internet and obtain recitations.
Respondent 21: The Advantage of online class is as a student you have a lot of free time to do your homework, project and etc. The Advantage of face to face
class is the students can learn a lot and be able to focus on the discussion since its face-to-face class.
Respondent 22: Yes, every student has different ways to learn because we have different paces in the learning process. And in terms of a face-to-face class,
Ithink its pros are easier communication, more physical interaction, and less distraction. While its cons are time-consuming, and dangerous due to the threat of
the covid-19 virus. On the other hand, the pros of online discussions are more convenience, less time to prepare, and required lesser expenses. While its cons
are a poor internet connection, more distraction, and less physical interaction.
Respondent 23: For me there is really a difference in how the student learns in each class because maybe the lack of internet or even if there is internet or
others are just lazy.
Respondent 24: Yes, there is a variation. I think the main advantage of learning online is we have more control and sources to find and that is the Disadvantage
of face-to-face classes which lack of sources.
Respondent 25: Yes, there is a variation and the advantages of learning face-to-face is we are not just learning we are also enjoying having knowledge with
other people such as a classmate unlike in online class we barely know each other.
Respondent 26: In online learning you have your own time and you can handle it properly while face-to-face classes have a limited time and you can't do the
things you wanted to do unlike in online learning.
Respondent 27: Online class teaches the students regarding time management and flexibility in addition students learned to be independent on their own since
they handle their own time. Meanwhile, face-to-face is really effective a way to learn knowledge and skills because it often combined different phase of learning
including writing, project, group work and practice. The advantage of online learning is that students will be able to to concentrate more while the Disadvantages
is in online classes kids get to turn off their video's or check their notes while in class discussion on their devices. However, face-to-face classes participating in
class discussion can be intimidating and can put a lot of pressure. There are kids who are comfortable with online classes due to less interaction with their
classmates. The advantage of face-to-face that students will be able to concentrate effectively since there will be less distractions than if you were at home
Respondent 28: Yes, face-to-face discussion has a lot of advantages and one of the advantages is that students and teachers can interact easily. The
Disadvantages of face-to-face learning are unsafe environment and it's spend more time and money. Online discussion helps to manage time and allows you to
be more responsible and improves self-discipline on the other hand disadvantage are lack of communication skills and also technical issues.
Respondent 29: Yes, face-to-face learning has advantage of allowing a person or a group of people to easily get together. Be more involved to and engage
more in physical activities. The Disadvantage of face-to-face meeting is that knowing the location that a person a learning education which can allow the learner
to visit from miles away but technology made it more simple and effective in learning. The advantage of online conversation are also more effective and
powerful since it allows student to study anywhere and anytime so unquestionably positive things that technologies is daring for us. The Disadvantage of online
conversation you won't see each face-to-face and you cannot attend physical gathering.
Respondent 30: I think there is a variation. We are different people; we have different way of learning things. I maybe good at learning face-to-face but not in
online and there are also students that are good in online but not in face-to-face. And there are also good the both. The Disadvantage of face-to-face is you
need to step out from your house and go to school according to your schedule. And in our right now it's very risky to go outside since pandemic still everywhere.
48
In online class the Disadvantage is it's hard for me to focus so many distractions in our home so sometimes I can't finish my work at time, at right time and
someti6and forgot to do it.
Q5. Do students perceive face-to-face and online discussions differently in terms of: a.) depth of learning, b.) appropriate length for learning, c.) ability to
remember details and “who said what”, d.) Where they learnt more or better?
Respondent 1: Yes, it is up to the student to determine whether he or she prefers face-to-face lessons over online classes or vice versa; we all come from
different backgrounds and situations, so we cannot expect all students to be effective in face-to-face sessions. Because I know some people that are quite in
face to face but surprisingly, they’re dominating in our online classes.
Respondent 2: I think students perceive discussions both in online and face-to-face in terms of b. ability to remember details and “who said what”. Although
depth of learning is what students seek, I think the current educational studies focuses more on what students remember from their lessons, for instance
remembering dates, names, terms, etc.
Respondent 3: Yes, they learnt better in face-to-face learning because it’s still much better compared to modular/online learning.
Responses 4: Yes, there’s a variation in it, because when it comes to face-to-face classes there would be less distractions than there would be at home when
the students are studying.
Respondent 5: Yes, students have different perspectives on where they learn more effectively. Students choose where they can learn more and better so that
they can understand and apply what they have learned in their studies.
Respondent 6: I think in face-to-face I am more attentive and alert in every discussion so I can remember the details clearly, unlike in online class where I get
easily distracted by different social media platforms or noises from my surroundings so I have a hard time absorbing every detail.
Respondent 7: Online discussions differently in terms of face-to-face lectures involve students and instructors engaging in real time, which is one of the key
contrasts between online and face-to-face training. Online students, on the other hand, work at their own pace through lectures and other training materials
Respondent 8: Yes, I’ll go with letter c because distractions are the most common issue for students taking online programs.
Respondent 9: Yes, every student has a different perspective on this way of online class. Because some of us are not adept at this set up of class.
Respondent 10: Face to face and online classes are identical but students prefer face to face you can access more information and richer understanding
through teacher and other students’ body language and voice.
Respondent 11: Yes, well for me I prefer having face-to-face classes because sometimes I get easily distracted by the noise, chores and disrupted by low
connection.
Respondent 12: With a traditional classroom setting, teachers can easily oversee the class and strictly enforce classroom rules, which is much more difficult in
virtual classes. This permits students to focus on the lesson material without being distracted by other students. Students who are immersed in their phones or
otherwise distracted can be detected instantly by on-site teachers.
Respondent 13: Yes, it’s up to the students if he/she is better in face-to-face than online classes or vice versa.
Respondent 14: Ability to remember details and “who said what” in terms of face-to-face and online class.
Respondent 15: Yes, for appropriate length for learning, face-to-face takes a lot of time in studying unlike online classes.
Respondent 16: Yes, I remember details more in online classes.
Respondent 17: I think most of students in online class don’t pay attention to what teachers saying and who’s saying it.
Respondent 18: Students learn better in physical education classes, according to most teachers. This is due to the real-world examples that students might
discuss or share. Because physical classes last 20 minutes longer than online classes, teachers and students can participate in more of the class and have
more time to ask questions of the teachers.
Respondent 19: Yes, I gained more knowledge in a face-to-face class than in this online course.
Respondent 20: For me, the face-to-face class has a more appropriate length for learning even if it has a longer period since, in a span of 6 hours a day at
school, we can learn 5 or more subjects a day, unlike in online classes where the 1- or 2-hour subject can be really boring since you're just staring to your
screen the whole time.
Respondent 21: Yes, I remember details more in face-to-face classes.
Respondent 22: I learn better in face-to-face class because face-to-face meetings make it easier to communicate effectively by providing participants with
nonverbal cues and the ability to ask questions.
Respondent 23: Physical classes follow schedules that make up an eight-hour class per day. Each subject has limited time so students should follow a rigid
schedule to accomplish the activities for the day. This can be exhausting compared to online classes in which kids get to spend 3 to 5 hours per day followed by
their asynchronous classes which sometimes can be flexible.
Respondent 24: It is easy to remember who said something in face-to-face classes since you don’t have other distractions and can put it in a note.
Respondent 25: Yes of course, students are increasingly aware of the differences between online and face-to-face studying.
Respondent 26: Yes, because some students prefer face-to-face classes because they are easier to understand.
Respondent 27: Yes, for appropriate length for learning face to face and online classes are identical but moo students learn more in face-to-face classes
because of additional engage interactions.
Respondent 28: Yes, students learn more in face-to-face classrooms than in online discussions in terms of length of learning.
Respondent 29: Yes, Face-to-face learning is much better compared to online learning because, “in-person communications make our brains happier.” In a
classroom setting, teachers can manage their topics very well because there is no longer a need to compress their topics to fit the modules.
Respondent 30: Yes, both face-to-face and online learning, instructors must have a way to measure performance. This is typically done by way of submitting
assignments, administering tests, exams and quizzes, and creating points for participation. Participation and class ‘attendance’ is harder to measure in an
online learning environment
Q6. If you take face-to-face lessons, would it be beneficial or detrimental to your mental health?
Respondent 1: It’s beneficial for me.
Respondent 2: Yes
Respondent 3: Beneficial, because it can lessen my stress and at the same time, I have friends who are my stress relivers.
Respondent 4: It would be beneficial for me as I seek for a more effective communication with my friends and peers, seeing them in person would help me boost
my mental health for the better.
Respondent 5: It would be beneficial and detrimental at the same time.
Respondent 6: Beneficial for me, because online classes is more stressful than face-to-face class.
Respondent 7: It will be beneficial because I can continue to socialize with others.
Respondent 8: Detrimental, because I have social anxiety. Respondent 9: It will be beneficial for me since I will get to go out every once in a while, and have a
physical interaction with other people that will improve my mental health.
Respondent 10: Other studies have found that face-to-face interactions can help reduce depression.
Respondent 11: Yes
Respondent 12: Beneficial, I can be more focused in my studies if I am at school.
Respondent 13: I think it would benefit the mental health because students can interact more with the others. and it would seem more appropriate because
they're in a place that is suitable for learning.
Respondent 14: I don't know maybe, because I’m worried about my mental health.
Respondent 15: Beneficial, because of my surroundings.
Respondent 16: It would be beneficial for me, because of internet problems that can cause of stress.
Respondent 17: It can be beneficial to my mental health. Because when face-to-face will make this situation easier to learn. Unlike the online class which is
difficult to set up like this.
Respondent 18: Beneficial, because I think If I’m at school I can easily talk to my classmates, teachers and friends if I have concern about the topics.
Respondent 19: Beneficial, because I can leave the stress at school and also, I can leave the stress in our home so I can be more focus in my school.
Respondent 20: I think not because my family and I’m scared of what might happen to us when face 2 face class comes.
Respondent 21: if I take a lesson face to face it doesn't hurt my mental health unless it's hard it will be easier if I answer quickly.
Respondent 22: For me, it would be beneficial since you could stay MOTIVATED. Unlike face-to-face learning, many get caught up with life when no-one is
there to help drive their learning, causing time to study to fall by the wayside. For many students, ‘obligatory’ attendance is what drives them forward to
complete their course.
Respondent 23: As a student, it is more beneficial to our mental health to attend the face-to-face lessons especially to slow learners to keep more active in the
class, the situation made us adapted to changes. however, our parents was the most impacted on this situation they felt anxious about our physical health to get
exposed outside every day, although exposure to society is important.
Respondent 24: Yes, it would be beneficial to my mental health since it allows me to interact more with people and that helps me to get distract myself from any
problems I have, because isolation can really make my mental health worse.
Respondent 25: I think it would be beneficial because there’s more social interaction which helps to support mental health issues such as stress and anxiety.
49
Respondent 26: It would be beneficial to my mental health face-to-face interactions can help reduce depression and anxiety plus social interaction may increase
feeling social anxiety and pressures.
Respondent 27: It would be beneficial on my part where I’m focus in my studying but if it talks about my health, it will not be beneficial, because of pandemic is
everywhere.
Respondent 28: I think it would be beneficial for me, during online class I learned a lot but I’m so drained and stress so I think face-to-face is much better for me,
because I like to work on the site with the presence of my classmates and teachers to feel more competitive and active.
Respondent 29: Beneficial, because I can easily understand the lesson without any distractions.
Respondent 30: As of my mental state right now I think taking face-to-face lessons will worsen my social anxieties and be harmful to my mental health more.
Q7. What benefits does face-to-face learning have over internet learning?
Respondent 1: I can now truly focus with my studies without minding my other personal problems in our house.
Respondent 2: Owing to clear voice, clear image, and no lags in face-to-face lessons, each topic is very easy to learn; nevertheless, in online classrooms, the
Wi-Fi may disrupt a student or an instructor due to disconnections and lags. Face-to-face classes have the disadvantage of being difficult to search for
information, especially if you don't have data, but online classes allow you to readily look for information on the internet and obtain recitations.
Respondent 3: It is easy to access many lectures and discussions on the internet.
Respondent 4: face-to-face learning allows for better communication, which will initially benefit students who seek clear ideas and better understanding among
their peers, making it more useful in group projects and learning without distractions, both of which are things that online learning lacks.
Respondent 5: You'll be able to concentrate and focus more on learning because there will be no distractions.
Respondent 6: You'll be able to concentrate harder on your learning because there'll be less distraction than if you were at home.
Respondent 7: you’ll be able to communicate with your friends and teachers
Respondent 8: Students can do everything like activities in school when face to face classes because they are together with their teachers and teachers can
explain their lessons more effectively compared to Online classes because they can't meet each other.
Respondent 9: Small amount of using devices (laptop, computer), clearly understand the lessons that teachers taught
Respondent 10: More effective in learning, requires physical interaction, lesser use of gadgets, and lesser distraction during the discussion.
Respondent 11: You can gain greater understanding, stories and real-world examples from teachers
Respondent 12: one of the benefits on face-to-face classes is you can focus in class and learn.
Respondent 13: Lots of learning, boost your social life, bond with friends, positive thinking, focus on lesson, no distraction.
Respondent 14: On face-to-face learning we wouldn’t have to think of having internet problems and it would give the students a chance to interact with each
other face to face and not just in a screen or in a monitor
Respondent 15: All the students may take less time using their gadgets in the reason of school works and other kinds of activities that perform in school.
Respondent 16: You can access more information and richer understanding through teacher and other students' body language and voice. You have the
opportunity to connect with, problem-solve, and network with other students from a wide range of backgrounds.
Respondent 17: You can bond with your friends and gain some memories unlike in internet learning.
Respondent 18: The benefit of face-to-face learning we will have more interest in learning especially when our teacher is in the forefront and is teaching.
Respondent 19: You'll be able to concentrate harder on your learning because there'll be less distraction than if you were at home
Respondent 20: For me, I can easily cope with the hardships of being a student when I have my friends with me at the same time, I am more determined to
learn when I was studying face-to-face back then.
Respondent 21: You can learn better
Respondent 22: The only difference between face to face in the online class is that in face to face you can learn something in the online class is a bit difficult
because the Wi-Fi/load suddenly disappears so it's hard to adjust
Respondent 23: In face-to-face discussions, we will be able to concentrate better, have a better understanding and real-world examples, greater chance of
completing activities on time, ang gain more information through body language and voice. While in online learning, students must be organized, self-motivated,
and have a high level of time management to participate in an online program. Online learning methods can be an effective alternative educational medium for
mature and self-disciplined pupils but are unsuitable for learning environments that depend on the learner. The main benefit of asynchronous, online learning is
that it allows students to fully participate in high-quality learning situations, where distance learning makes it difficult or impossible to learn on the ground. It's
also hard for other students that cannot be able to catch up to the lessons because not all students are fast learners.
Respondent 24: You can understand better from 'real world' examples and stories from classmates and teachers. In face-to-face education, you learn new
concepts and skills alongside other students in real life. It's easier to empathize and learn from one another because you're on the same learning journey.
Respondent 25: The main benefit for me is the bond we make with our classmates unlike in online classes we can only make bond with them through a
videocall or messages
Respondent 26: The main benefit for me is that we can communicate clearly with our teachers and classmates
Respondent 27: Face-To-Face learning allows teachers to measure students’ knowledge and to teach them better
Respondent 28: the benefit of Face-to-face classes for me is that it allows student to be more motivated and interested in the lessons
Respondent 29: It’s easier to communicate and it allows students to have a better experience in learning.
Respondent 30: the main benefit for me is that students will be able to focus on learning.
Q8. What are perceived challenges of students encounters when learning face-to-face compared to online learning?
Respondent 1: Too many subjects, I guess? And sometimes the deadlines of projects and activities of other subjects, they're overlapping.
Respondent 2: Recitations and performances can be easy through online, it will be hard in face-to-face classes
Respondent 3: Social distancing and still following the health protocols.
Respondent 4: Transportation. Student commuters encounter one of the most prevalent obstacles with face-to-face classes: transportation. Some students
would arrive late to school due to traffic and other distractions, and the same is true for those who walk to school. In face-to-face classes, I also believe that the
unexpected exams offered to students are a bit stressful, especially given our brain's limited capacity to operate during the lecture.
Respondent 5: More expensive than online learning, time bound and attendance times can be restrictive or inconvenient.
Respondent 6: Stressed in so many activities
Respondent 7: Waking up too early and tiring to go to school especially to students whose school is far from their home.
Respondent 8: Maybe the problems with transportations and not be able to control you time.
Respondent 9: Time-consuming, requires more expenses, and facing the threat of getting infected of the covid-19 virus.
Respondent 10: Ineffective Time Management
Respondent 11: The challenges for f2f is of course the spread of covid
Respondent 12: Great pressure, Socialized
Respondent 13: Maybe it would be the fear of getting the virus. as we're now allowed to go to our classrooms, we are risking our lives to because we're more
exposed on places or people that could be infected with the virus.
Respondent 14: I have no idea
Respondent 15: The only challenges is, the virus because where in the pandemic situation, and one and only concern.
Respondent 16: They have to get early and get ready to go to school.
Respondent 17: The perceived challenges of students encounters when learning is to have communication with your classmates and teachers.
Respondent 18: Classes vary from early morning to afternoons. If you have a day-time job or other responsibilities, it might not fit into your schedule.
Respondent 19: Transportation (especially for those who have their homes far from school)
Respondent 20: None I think
Respondent 21: The challenges that the student sees in face to face will be more difficult than in the online class he is a little too difficult.
Respondent 22: In doing groupworks, I think it would be challenging since it will be awkward hard to cooperate with the people I don't know.
Respondent 23: The disadvantages of face-to-face learning, tuition can be more expensive, students have to pay for textbooks, Commuting and Professor cost.
However, the disadvantages of online learning are Ineffective time management, Lack of In-person Interaction, Not receiving timely feedback and not receiving
clear instructions or expectations.
Respondent 24: There's a lot of disadvantages that students encounter in learning face-to-face compared with online classes like expenses, time management
and difficulties in commuting.
Respondent 25: The challenges of students encounter when learning face-to-face classes are the lecturer only on the certain amount of time to get through
subjects so you cannot keep up for the rest of class you will have to schedule the next class which could cause you extra money, you will have to spend additional
money on travelling and secure parking. Classes vary early morning to afternoon, if you have date time job or other responsibilities it may not fit in their schedule
When online classes challenge you may encounter is worst or much worse than in face-to-face classes, distractions everywhere, distractions are reality of online
learning, stay motivated, technical issues. Unfortunately, the technical issues are going to happen in an online environment so some students being left behind. In
traditional classroom, teachers in monitors the students that suggest to accommodate to anyone when there is extra time. In an online learning environment is
more difficult to do so.
50
Respondent 26: The students mostly have problems regarding their time since most of the students prefer to during face-to-face class that's why some of
students prefer online class because they prefer handling their own time.
Respondent 27: When there was face-to-face, they will encounter being late, passing projects late but when in online learning you have so much time to do
activities.
Respondent 28: I think the challenge is the expenses to go to school to some students need to commute and fare for public vehicle to have raised over the
years. Furthermore, there are expenses for foods, projects and other things that we need in school. Another challenge is the threat of COVID-19 we are going to
meet different people and we are not 100% sure if they're free from covid or what so it is important to practice safety precautions during face-to-face classes.
Respondent 29: The challenges that student perceived is that we are having a hard time to focus when it comes to online classes but when in face-to-face it’s
not the same.
Respondent 30: Personally, that challenges those students encounters when learning in face-to-face is having the pressure in the spot and not having the time
to prepare.
Q9. As a student, do you agree of reopening a face-to-face even if Corona Virus Disease 19 is not yet over? Why or why not?
Respondent 1: Yes, I agree, because I already have a vaccination and that is what the government and our teacher’s advice as to do right? So, we can go back
to face-to-face classes, and I don’t see any problems why would we don’t like to go back in face-to-face classes.
Respondent 2: Yes, our country’s status right now is at a healthy path, we can start as soon as possible so that students can learn more personally.
Respondent 3: Yes, so it would not be difficult to interact with teachers anymore.
Respondent 4: Yes, we could follow protocols such as social distancing, wearing masks, bringing alcohols, etc. Although it is still concerning, reopening of
schools would be beneficial to the students especially after 2 years of disruption brought about by online classes and the pandemic to the student’s health both
mental and physical.
Respondent 5: No, as what I have said, If the virus is eradicated or the entire population has been immunized then that’s the time that I’ll agree.
Respondent 6: No, because there is a possibility that the virus will spread further and many more people will be affected again.
Respondent 7: Kind of agree because virus will never leave, if we wait for the virus to totally leave, we will never go back to our normal lives. All we need to do is
we need to be more responsible and take care of our health.
Respondent 8: No, I’m afraid that I may able to carry virus on my way home, and might pass on my family.
Respondent 9: Yes, I agree since it’s been 2 years since we stopped attending face to face and I think as a student, online learning is not enough as a learning
modality since there are some skills and knowledge that we need to learn and improve that requires physical interaction.
Respondent 10: School closures have clear negative impacts on child health
Respondent 11: Yes, if we have protocols and safety of everyone.
Respondent 12: No, education is important but risking our life for education is not, what’s the point of learning if you’re just going to get affected by the COVID-19.
Respondent 13: Yes, even though there’s still a virus it would still be better and easier for students to learn. But we still have to do some extra precautions.
Respondent 14: Maybe, as long as we’re able to study go for it.
Respondent 15: Agree, as long as you follow the health and safety protocols that are implemented, everything will be safe.
Respondent 16: I agree in reopening a face-to-face as I can’t focus more in online learning and my mental health is getting worse.
Respondent 17: Yes, because the number of people with Covid is not that high, we can take a face-to-face class. Unlike previously high the number of Covid
cases as long as the health protocol is followed then it’s fine to have face-to-face class.
Respondent 18: I would not agree we do not know it might be spreading somewhere near school.
Respondent 19: No, As I’ve experienced the pandemic, I don’t want to be like that again. So, it is better to have face-to-face if the safety of the students, as well
as school administrators, is proven.
Respondent 20: No, because we might get Covid-19.
Respondent 21: I agree with the reopening of the face-to-face learning class, you can also go face to face where the area has low cases or there is no virus in the
area, you can somehow start again.
Respondent 22: It would be fine as long as students are fully vaccinated and taken boosters to ensure the health safety of students.
Respondent 23: For me No, because we still need to take care of our health.
Respondent 24: For now, I don’t think it’s safe to reopen because there is a possibility that this disease will spread even more.
Respondent 25: As a student, I don’t agree in the reopening of face-to-face classes since we are experiencing a pandemic it just makes the problems worse. It
may also affect the economy and our country may experience poverty due to expanding of money to eliminate the virus and the virus will spread further.
Respondent 26: I would agree on part where Covid is controlled in a specific area where we can assure that it will not spread quickly, probably as I’d like to
experience the new normal of face to face and also this was the one, we wanted ever since the pandemic.
Respondent 27: No, I do not agree because it will endanger the student’s health.
Respondent 28: Yes, I agree but it should be done after the current school year.
Respondent 29: I agree, different country have opened their face-to-face classes and I think it’s time for our country to open as well but the students should be
healthy and immunize. If they are scared and not that healthy then it’s alright for them to stay in online set up until our country will be pandemic free.
Respondent 30: For me, I am in favor in face-to-face classes as long as the government allows it, particularly in areas under alert level 1 and 2 and as long as the
students are fully vaccinated. However, school health protocols in conducting face to face classes must be plan carefully.
Q10. We've been learning online for about two years now. If the School held face-to-face meetings, would you become more innovative?
Respondent 1: Yes, I learned a lot in online class and I will use those learnings.
Respondent 2: Yes
Respondent 3: I think yes, I’ve never thought about it before but face to face classes would give students a better chance to be innovative or to express
themselves
Respondent 4: No, I don't think so, but slowly I can adjust to the new situation or environment. I have a trust to myself that I can as innovative as I am before.
Respondent 5: Yes
Respondent 6: I think, yes.
Respondent 7: Yes, I would be more innovative.
Respondent 8: I think so. Especially now that college life is incoming. I wanted to focus and have good grades to be able to pass entrance exams.
Respondent 9: Yes, because we also did online classes for 2 years. I'm a bit new again if I ever have a face-to-face class. But as time goes on, I can get used to it
too.
Respondent 10: I think not, but I adjust myself.
Respondent 11: Yes, I learned a lot this past 2 years of online class and I would be ready to implement this on myself in upcoming face to face classes.
Respondent 12: Yes, because I learned a lot in a past 2 years.
Respondent 13: Yes, definitely because I learned in online class.
Respondent 14: Maybe, I'm not sure.
Respondent 15: Yes
Respondent 16: I don't really know, maybe?
Respondent 17: Maybe, I am not that sure.
Respondent 18: Yes, since I think I am more efficient and enthusiastic during f2f class and I find learning more interesting in that way.
Respondent 19: If in case the school has a meeting with me, maybe I will be more innovative.
Respondent 20: Yes, I learned a lot during online learning for two years, and one of that is to be innovative and productive, and given that I have taught myself to
become more innovative during online classes, I will definitely apply it to my face-to-face classes.
Respondent 21: Yes, because I learned during my online class.
Respondent 22: Yes
Respondent 23: Yes
Respondent 24: Yes
Respondent 25: Yes, I will become innovative since I will have more interactions with my teachers and also my classmates which helps me to gain more
knowledge and information. As a student, I will have more greater chance of completing activities on time since it has no deadline.
Respondent 26: probably I’d like to experience the new normal of face to face and also this was the one we wanted ever since the pandemic broke out.
Respondent 27: Yes, I think I'll be more cautious now and I’ve developed some new skills also.
Respondent 28: Yes, I will become more innovative.
Respondent 29: Yes, I think I will be more and know what even active in attending class and doing my works my skills will be tested here since it's an actual
occasion so I need to push myself to do better.
Respondent 30: Yes, face-to-face learning is much better compared to online classes, however, I learned too during online class.

APPENDIX E
NARRATIVE REPORT
On our first meeting on the subject of "Practical Research 1", Dr. Reynaldo
Nama, the specialist of the said subject, let us pick our topic and groupmates
after Dr. Nama teaches us the lessons and important pointers to begin our
research. We students of Grade 11-ABM A began to pick our groupmates, and
our class was divided into four groups. The specialist told us to make 3 titles for
the research and send them to him by message. The specialist chose the timely
issue of the 3 titles that our group had. The chosen title: PERCEPTIONS OF
GRADE 11 SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS OF SIGNAL VILLAGE
NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL TOWARDS THE LIMITED FACE-TO-FACE
CLASSES. Then our teacher proceeds to instruct us on how to write an
introduction and statement of the problem, which is a part of chapter 1 of the
research paper, for each title that we have created. Afterwards our teacher
gave us a GO signal to start writing Chapter 2 of the research study that is
made up of related local and foreign literature studies and synthesis. In the next
session, Dr. Nama proceeds to teach us how to do a background study, and on
the same day, he gave us tasks to do for each title. Following chapter 2, Dr.
Nama taught us on how to make Chapter 3 of the study, which includes
52
teaching us on how to write the research design population of the study
description of respondents. Our teacher gave an assignment for us to compile
chapters 1-3 that each group had made. In Chapter 2 after we conducted and
compiled our research titles, Dr. Nama proceeded to select the final title for
each group. He also told us to send the questions that we will put in our survey
for the research and then he analyzed the questions if there’s something to
change or if there’s something wrong with the survey questions so he can make
suggestions for us to further improve our statement. Next, we proceeded to
make interviews by using google forms. After collecting their data from the
respondents, we passed it to Dr. Nama so Dr. Nama can see the progress of
the survey for the research. In Chapter 3 contains the Research Design, Locale
and population of the study, Description of the respondents, Data gathering
procedure. To determine the results, we employed basic random sampling in
Research Design. Grade 11 students' attitudes regarding the restricted face-to-
face time in study design. Thirty (30) individuals whose perceptions would be
confined to face-to-face classes were obtained in the study's Locale and
population of the study from Signals Village National High School Senior 11
students. Thirty (30) respondents make up the Description of the respondents,
who hail from grade 11 students. We will collect data through online
communication tools such as Google forms in Data Gathering Procedure.
Lastly, Chapter 4, in this chapter we conducted an online interview due to
COVID-19 pandemic, for the interview we have two ways to conduct, through
Google forms and Through Voice Video. We prepared 10 questions for that, for
53
the video we will going to send the question to that person who will going to
answer and if he/she says that he/she cannot make that video because
he/she’s busy, we have an alternative way to answer and that is through
Google forms, by this method we just going to send the forms through
messenger to them. After making the interview, we proceed to the main parts of
chapter 4 which is doing presentation, analyzing and interpreting the data. This
chapter discussed the data results that we (the researchers) gathered from the
respondents; the data were presented in tabular form. Creating this research is
really difficult for us, because of the pandemic, communication is proven to be
challenging because some of the students lack of resources. Fortunately, our
teacher is very patient to explain and gives us instructions so clearly, and he
gives each group examples from the previous year's research, because of that
we finally finished our research paper.
