A Research Proposal
Bacolod City National High School
One of the most recent public health emergencies of global concern is the COVID-19
pandemic, which started in Wuhan, China, and infected almost every country globally. This
has received global attention from the rapid spread of infection and how to repel and hinder
further contamination completely. Symptoms include cough, fever, and shortness of breath
which can be transferred through close contact with an infected person by coughing, sneezing,
[1][2][3]
respiratory droplets, or aerosols . The sudden outbreak of this deadly disease paralyzed the
[4]
world's activities . Each country responded swiftly by introducing policies, protocols, and
3.The global pandemic forced the world-wide education system to develop a mechanism
[8]
to protect teachers and students . Teaching and learning activities usually carried out through
face-to-face meetings have turned into virtual meetings using various online learning
applications [9]. This is a situation that requires unity among humanity. There is a need to protect
and save students, faculty, academic staff, communities, societies, and the nation as a whole [10].
2.In mid-March 2020, the Philippine government placed its largest island Luzon and
other major cities under lockdown. It declared a state of calamity in the country for six months
[11][12]
on 17 March, ordering the suspension of classes in all levels . As infections and deaths
continue to rise daily, the Department of Education mandated all public schools to restructure
[13]
their curriculum, train faculty, and prepare students for the new normal . Through its Basic
Education Learning Continuity Plan (BE-LCP) under DepEd Order No. 012, s. 2020, the schools
can adopt may be one or a combination of the learning delivery modalities such as distance
learning, blended learning, or homeschooling depending on the local health conditions, the
availability of resources, and the particular context of the learners in the school or locality [14].
However, various studies and reports show that not all Filipino students are ready for
these learning modes. It seems that whatever mode of learning a student chooses, the overall
process faced unanticipated challenges [15]. Some stated that they are forced to cope with the new
normal while others do not have resources like books, internet connectivity, laptops at home, or
[16]
supportive parents . In some cases, students face several barriers to their full participation in
coursework units because of addiction to online gaming, motivation to attend online classes,
drives to complete modules, and the lack of technical competency and proficiency [17][18]. Students
who prefer web-based learning experienced boredom and frustration because of the stay-at-home
order. Accordingly, researchers have already begun to document stress and anxiety disrupt
With the current health condition, everyone faces challenges, and the Bacolod City
National High School - Senior High School Department is not an exception. With the
researchers being enrolled in online learning modalities would like to study students' challenges
in web-based teaching. This study is new, so there are limited information and researches along
with this topic. Thus, the result will be valuable as it will become recent related literature for
future researchers. Moreover, it will serve as a good source of information for school
This study aims to determine the challenges encountered in web-based teaching by Senior
High School students of Bacolod City National High School for School Year 2020-21.
Specifically, it aims:
1. to describe the profile of the respondents in terms of sex, grade level, average
Hypothesis
Theoretical Framework
The researchers decided to anchor this study on the behaviorism theory by John Watson
[21]
around 1924 . Some students do not have access to resources for digital education. The
researchers realized that the effect of studying alone is different than learning in a classroom
where teachers and students are physically present to help. In the final analysis, there really are
difficulties that students may encounter in the new normal in terms of efficient learning.
The behaviorism theory suggests that one vital factor in learning is the environment. It
tells that it is more efficient when students are studying or learning while they are able to witness
what is supposed to be done around them. This is related to the study being conducted because
the environment, which is the classroom, is removed due to the new normal making it harder for
In spite of this, students are still able to learn by digital means. Learning may reside in
[22]
non-human appliances . This is the central idea for connectivism theory. It affirms that
technologies have enabled users across the World Wide Web and within themselves to learn and
exchange knowledge in ways that were not feasible before the digital era. This is in contrast to
the first theory that expresses the negativity in the field of online learning. This is also related to
the study because the participants being observed are undergoing online learning as of the
moment. Despite the absence of the classroom as an environment, learners acquire knowledge by
electronic method nevertheless. Ultimately, the pupils are responsible for what they learn.
Online classes have been the ideal and primary source of education during this pandemic.
However, the researchers have to take into consideration that there are factors that make it
challenging to execute. The very first step to online learning is access. No matter how well the
instruction is designed, if the learner cannot gain access to the course learning materials via the
technology due to physical or financial constraints, the instructional design is rendered useless
Demographic Profile
In this study, the prevalent challenges encountered by Senior High School students of
Bacolod City National High School in Web-based teaching will be determined considering the
technological, academic, and social constructs. Likewise, the description of the profile of the
respondents will be based on their sex, grade level, and average monthly family income. It is
hypothesized that the extent of challenges on web-based teaching the students may vary or differ
This research study primarily focuses on determining the challenges encountered in web-
based teaching by Senior High School STEM Students (Grade 11 or 12) of Bacolod City
National High School for School Year 2020-21. The data will be gathered using a researcher-
made survey questionnaire to each respondent who preferred the online modality. The
respondents' profile describes only their sex, grade level, family income and at the same time, the
prevalent challenges will be confined only to the technological, academic, and social issues. The
tests' results will be statistically treated to determine if there is a significant difference in the
prevalent challenges encountered in web-based teaching by the respondents when grouped

Web-Based Teaching
Web-based teaching for schools and educational institutions has existed for over a decade
now. However, in developing countries like the Philippines, it was never adopted or
implemented correctly. Due to the outbreak of Coronavirus, many countries are undergoing a
lockdown period. This platform has picked up its pace, even in remote parts of the country.
Both teachers and students are working hard to adjust to this new reality. They are
making all efforts to make sure that learning online will produce output just like in the traditional
or face-to-face set-up. Despite their efforts, students are facing diverse problems. Everyone is
aware that the world will not be the same after the pandemic. Notably, with technology and
The social and communicative interaction between teacher and student has been an
essential part of classroom teaching. Electronic education has changed due to a favorable online
environment due to increased Internet connectivity, speed, and accessibility. The teaching
methods can be altered to cope with the information society. Traditional chalk and talk can no
longer adapt to the changing society. In addition to passing down the tradition, new ideas should
also be introduced. In the informational age, the internet becomes an essential living element.
Synchronous Web-based teaching breaks through the obstacle of space provides instant and
Online classes cannot replace physical ones by any means. But due to the Corona pandemic, all
the schools across the globe are compelled to adopt online classes [31][32].
As Web-based instruction increases in the educational and training domains, many people
have recognized the importance of evaluating its effects on student outcomes such as learning,
performance, and satisfaction. These results are often compared to conventional classroom
instruction to determine which method is "better." Besides bringing new challenges to traditional
education and training, web-based teaching platforms also provide a wealth of information
sources and application channels for corporate education and training. Studies have proven that
in the service industry, using web-based teaching to conduct employee training for service staff
engagement and regulation of learning activities. There are numerous questions on designing and
[35]
implementing how the students will master the web-based learning demands . Students from
blended learning encountered challenges on lack of access to computers and internet connection
[36]
. The use of new technology brings about quality. It maintains the students’ interest, which is
the best way to keep their communication with the teachers during the current critical situation
[37]
. The synchronous web-based learning environment provides a good platform for both pupils
The Covid-19 pandemic brought extraordinary disruption to education. Schools now have
a different education pattern where one cannot physically attend classes but has to attend classes
virtually, a new problem occurs. Students' common issues are internet connectivity problems,
family income, a basic understanding of technology, and other such problems [39].
Unlike face-to-face courses, online courses present a unique challenge as the only social
[40]
presence between the faculty and the student is via the Internet . Most people faced internet
[41]
problems and did not have the knowledge to use and solve problems related to technology .
Furthermore, knowing these learner attributes may assist faculty in designing quality online
Online courses and programs continue to grow in higher education settings. Yet various
questions remain like the viability and veracity of online learning, particularly from the learner
[43]
perspective . There is a significant problem with the one-size-fits-all approach for external
students who feel or experience isolation. Compared to their internal counterparts, these students
often face several barriers to their full participation in coursework units. These barriers may not
be experienced by those engaging in these same units via face-to-face or blended enrollment
modes. Therefore, they present another type of learner to consider in the planning and
implementing learning activities online. The barriers to participation appear particularly evident
in groupwork activities. The social challenges are mainly related to the lack of human interaction
between teachers and students. While the lack of physical spaces at home to receive lessons and
the lack of support of parents who are frequently working remotely in the same areas are also
studying at their own pace, they see being accountable for their learning and handling their time
as a challenge [50].
Literature reveals that students' most common challenges in using online teaching
include, but were not limited to, the inability to have access to modern equipment, interrupted or
[51]
weak internet connection, learners' low motivation level, and attention deficit . It shows that
students prefer to attend face-to-face classes rather than online courses because of the challenges
[52]
they encounter with this learning method . Notwithstanding, students described flexibility and
convenience as key factors of the learning experiences in a virtual classroom. Implications for
administrators and course designers in understanding student perspectives of online classes and
Meanwhile, the students in Vietnam encountered several challenges when attending the
flipped classroom, such as difficulty in self-regulated learning, heavy learning workload, lack of
[54]
immediate support, and deficiency of ICT resources . In India, teachers cited that students felt
isolated, found the class boring, failed to get 100% attention, and encountered technological

the study, sample size, sampling techniques, research instrument, data-gathering procedure, and
Research Design
This study will use a descriptive research method. This research design is use to describe
a population, situation, or phenomenon accurately and only observe and measure the variables
[55]
. With a descriptive research method, the researcher will determine the challenges encountered
in Web-based teaching by Senior High School students of Bacolod City National High School
for School Year 2020-21. Likewise, the researchers will ascertain if there is a significant
The participants of the study will be the Science, Technology, Engineering, and
Mathematics Senior High Students of Bacolod City National High School who are using online
class modality.
Sampling Technique
The researchers will use Stratified Random Sampling in determining the sample size.
Stratified random sampling is a method of sampling that involves the division of a population
[56]
into smaller groups known as strata . In stratified random sampling or stratification, the strata
are formed based on members' shared attributes or characteristics. The researches will use this
sampling technique to identify the sample size of to represent the whole population between the
subgroups since the population is heterogeneous. After stratifying the population, respondents
will be chosen by draw lots. This is to ascertain everyone have an equal chance to be the
respondent.

Research Instrument
The researchers use a researchers-made survey questionnaire as a data collection
instrument. It will enable the researchers to adequately gather the needed information to
complete the study and ensure credibility. It will be divided into two parts.
The first part of the questionnaire will gather data on the profile of the participants in
terms of sex, grade level, and average monthly family income. The second part will focus
academic, and social construct. It will be answerable using the five-point Likert scale: 5
Validity explains how well the collected data covers the actual area of investigation, and
[57]
it is basically meaning to measure what is supposed to be measured . One way of achieving
content validity involves a panel of subject matter experts considering the importance of
individual items within an instrument. In this study, the instrument will be subjected to content
validation which was developed by C. H. Lawshe. The Content Validation Ratio (CVR) numeric
value will be solved to determine the instrument’s degree of validity. One rule of thumb suggests
that a CVR of at least 0.78 is necessary to deem an item or scale as valid. Considering the
present health condition, the researchers will conduct the validity test using social media
platforms such as e-mail and Facebook messenger for the month of March 2021.
In establishing the reliability of the instrument, the researcher will subject the validated
instrument to dry-run testing. In this process, thirty (30) students from Accountancy and
Business Management (ABM) strand of Bacolod City National High School Senior High
Department who are in the online class modality will be the respondents. Cronbach Alpha
reliability index will be the basis of measure of internal consistency. This tool is considered to be
After the validity and reliability test of the instrument, approval to administer the
questionnaire through online platforms will be sought from the school principal of Bacolod City
National High School Senior High Department. After the permission is granted, the researchers
will migrate the questions to google form and link will be sent to the respondents. The researcher
will see to it that prior of answering the online survey, the participants will be briefed of the
purpose of the study and how are they going to answer it. The online survey will run for a month,
the Google Forms portal will be closed and the data will be collected after the set date. The
researcher will review the forms one by one in order to make sure that questions are answered
properly.
Once the data are collected, it will be coded, tabulated, and tallied by the researchers with
The quantitative data that will be obtained from the survey will be tabulated and analyzed
For problem number 1 which is to describe the profile, frequency and percentage will be
used. For problem number 2 which is to determine the prevalent challenges encountered by the
students on web-based teaching, weighted mean and rank will be used. For problem number 3
which is to determine if significant difference occur on the prevalent challenges experienced by
the students on web-based teaching, t-test and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) will be used.
Results of the survey will be presented both in narrative and tabular forms. Analyses will
be categorized into two major parts. It starts with the descriptive analysis of problem 1and 2.
The data serve as supporting facts to the text; thus, the table will be placed after the text
that presents and interprets the data in the table. The number of the table where the data are being
described or discussed will be mentioned for reference. Moreover, data interpretation will
explain the meaning of the data in a table with emphasis on the highlights and trends. The
findings will further relate to the results of related studies and to the theoretical or conceptual
framework.
The completed research will be submitted to the Office of the Principal for reference
Ethical Consideration
In conducting the study, research ethics would be taken into account. Since participation
is entirely optional, nobody will be obligated to be involved. The survey questionnaires will be
accompanied by a cover letter describing the study’s goal and the respondent’s consent that they
allow the researchers to use the gathered data for research purposes. The participants' identities
will be kept private, and no monetary compensation will be given. Participants in the research
has the right to stop at any point during the activity. Furthermore, after the study will be
