RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
This chapter enumerates the different methodologies that the researchers used in
gathering data that is needed for the study.
Research Design
The researchers used a descriptive method that describes the characteristics of the
population or phenomenon that has been studied. This study used a descriptive method because it
primarily focuses on describing the nature of a demographic segment without focusing on why
such a phenomenon occurs. In other words, it describes the subject of the research without
covering why it happens.
The researchers selected twenty five (25) respondents from different courses and year
levels that will serve as the informants of the study who happen to have met the following
criteria. First, the respondent must be a student of University of Caloocan City-South. Then, he
or she is struggling doing an online class. Lastly, the respondent is willing to answer or share his
or her thoughts or experience regarding the topic studied.
The type of sampling that we used in the study was purposive sampling because the
researchers sets a set of criteria that is relevant to the topic under study.
Research Instrument
The research instrument used to gather data was a survey questionnaire that was prepared
by the researchers. Survey questionnaires consist of questions that are related to the topic under
study and are constructed based on the research problem. Type of questions are open ended
wherein the respondents must choose among the given set of answers prepared by the
researchers.

Considering the situation that pandemic is still out there making it risky for someone to
go out, the researchers use a Google form that contains questions they prepared in gathering data.
Such a form was meant to be filled up by chosen respondents. Afterwards, answered forms were
automatically retrieved by the researcher the moment that the respondent clicked the submit icon.
The researchers carefully review the items in the questionnaire to determine whether the
questionnaire measures what it was intended to, which is basically to get relevant information for
the study. Reviewing or validation was done by having the researchers observe all the specific
items on the questionnaire to determine whether the questionnaire addresses the overall topic.
The researchers asked Mr. Jose R. Pablo, a research professor for a permission to conduct
the survey in order to gather information needed for the study. Next, researchers look for
respondents who happen to have met the criteria and then ask the students if he or she can
cooperate with our study and can be our respondent. Then, the researchers distribute the survey
questionnaire to the chosen respondent in the Google form and then later on, answered forms
retrieved by the researcher are for treatment of the data.
Statistical Treatment of Data ( HAVE HERE HOW YOU'RE GOING TO TREAT THE
DATE GATHERED; YOU NEED TO PRESENT HERE THE FORMULA FOR THE
STATISTICAL TREATMENT) /JRP
The gathered data was analyzed properly by the researchers using statistical treatment in
order to come up with exact and accurate results for the study. Statistical treatment was used
because analyzing the data involves using some form of statistical method such as computing the
mean or the average. Similar answers of the respondents were combined together in order to get
its total number and average percentage.
Based on the result, the researchers created the discussion and the summary of the study.
