Level of Challenges and Coping Mechanism of College of Education Stakeholders on Modular

Abstract:

The study titled “Level of Challenges and Coping Mechanism of College of Education Stakeholders on Modular Learning” was conducted in the College of Education of Capiz State University Burias Campus during the school year 2020-2021. More specifically, it aimed to answer the following questions: (1) What are the level of challenges encountered in the implementation of modular learning as a whole when grouped according to: students, parents, and faculty? (2) What are the level of coping mechanism in the implementation of modular learning as a whole when grouped according to: students, parents, and faculty? (3) Is there significant relationship between challenges and coping mechanism? The study employed the descriptive – correlational research design. The data were gathered by the researcher using a researcher-made questionnaire for challenges and adapted questionnaire for coping mechanism. The respondents were randomly chosen through simple random sampling technique. The results of the study revealed that the College of Education students of Capiz State University Burias Campus were mostly female, reside in barangay and without internet connectivity. The parent – respondents were high school graduate, with family income of PHP10,000 and below, and unemployed. The faculty–respondents were mostly instructor I and had a length of service between 1 – 10 years. The level of challenges encountered by the students, parents, and faculty in the implementation of modular learning was moderately challenged as a whole. The level of coping mechanism encountered by the students, parents, and faculty in the implementation of modular learning was strongly coping as a whole. The challenges and coping mechanism of the student - respondents in the implementation of modular learning was significantly related. However, the challenges and coping mechanism of parents and faculty were not significantly related.
