ABSTRACT

— This research investigated the relative effectiveness of blended learning approach in relation to the academic performance, social and emotional of Rosales District II learners. The respondents of this study were the teachers of Grades 4, 5 and 6 in the schools of Rosales District II. The schools were categorized as small, medium, large and mega. Majority of the respondents belong to medium schools. Using the ANOVA, the researcher determines the effectiveness of blended learning. There were 17 schools in Rosales District II, all the grades 4-6 were the respondents of this study. One hundred percent of the schools in the Rosales District II used modular print during the school year 2020-2021, however, during the school year 2021-2022, the district used blended learning as modality. Majority used modular print while some used online. There is significant difference between the academic performance of Rosales District II learners in School Year 2020-2021 and 2021-2022. The Average MPS during modular print increases as blended learning used as modality in learning. Majority of the respondents encountered learners’ difficulty in independent learning. However, there were no respondents having existing health conditions. It can also be concluded that blended learning approach is an effective approach in the relation to academic performance, social and emotional of Rosales District II learners. Hence the researcher recommends the teachers should be provided with more trainings in using blended approach such as attending online trainings and other in-service trainings, teachers should enhance their professional growth by pursuing their Master Degree or Doctoral Degree in reputable institutions, and further studies on the different teaching style in elementary grade should undertake to further strengthen the program and in wider parameter using other variables.
