This study aimed to identify and describe the challenges and barriers encountered by the students in modular learning. This study utilized quantitative research design. The researchers sent out an electronic survey via google forms to students. The respondents were selected using convenience sampling technique.
Using open-ended questions, and Likert scale the following data were obtained: demographics; self-assessment of capacity for modular learning; and challenges and learning barriers encountered by the students in modular learning. Descriptive statistics were calculated. Under prevailing conditions, the students considered themselves physically and mentally capable of engaging in modular learning. Challenges experienced by the students were classified to 4 categories: individual; domestic; institutional; and community barriers.
The study limited its coverage on the response of 217 students in Eugenio Cabezas National High School S.Y. 2021-2022. Research on distance learning is still in its early phases and there are very few studies which investigated the modular learning. Hence, the findings of this study are of paramount importance for future learning continuity plans of educational institutions and stakeholders.
