Digital Literacy learning strand in ALS Basic Curriculum. It is known as Information and
Communication Technology (ICT) in the formal school. It has 6 content standards and 6
performance standards. Under each standard are numerous non-negotiable competencies. It is
said that in the delivery of Digital Citizenship Learning Strand, from DepEd Order 013, s. 2019,
mandated that the English Language should be used in the Accreditation and Equivalency (A &
E) Test (DepEd, 2019). Hence, instructional/learning materials shall be in the English language.
The A & E test is a paper-pencil test that evaluates the competencies of ALS learners (DepEd,
2018). DepEd Memorandum No. 76, s.2018, and DepEd Memorandum No. 102, s.2018 specify
who are passers (DepEd, 2018). On the other hand, the English language is the Learning Strand 1
in the ALS Basic Education Curriculum. It has numerous non-negotiable competencies similar to
that of the formal school Like Digital Citizenship, is a requirement and not an option for ALS
learners who desire to have equivalency certification (DepEd, 2019). ALS completer/passer
under the old basic education curriculum before the Senior High School in K to 12 is a High
School graduate qualified for College/University, Technical-Vocational School, or Senior High
School education (Department of Education, 2018).

The researcher in their study intended to deal with the variables wherein first is the performance
of the ALS learners in both Digital Citizenship and English. Second, t is the relationship between
sex and learning level key stages, and the learners’ results on the tests i.e. their actual mastered
competencies were investigated. The study was conducted in the three (3) Districts of the
Division of Negros Oriental selected using convenient sampling. Findings revealed that 61% of
the ALS learners had mastered Digital Citizenship; 93% of them had mastered the English
learning strand. Further, the data revealed that students’ sex was highly correlated to their
performance in Digital Citizenship and was very highly correlated to their English Performance.
The data also revealed that the learning level of ALS students had a very low relationship to
their performance in Digital Citizenship but was perfectly associated to their English
performance. The data also reflect that the learning level of ALS students has a very low
correlation to their performance in Digital Citizenship but is perfectly correlated to their English
performance. The researchers believed that an effort to the enhancement of Instructional
materials is necessary for the learners.

This study shows that there is a need to improve the implementation of this program. It is very
challenging for the learners as well as for the teachers to cope with the kind of education system
we have, considering that it’s in the 21st century already. It clearly shows that ALS learners are
having a hard time finding resources for their studies considering that they came from different
places wherein some lived in far-flung areas and socioeconomic status. The government should
think of something that will help them in their studies.
