Proposed Research Title
Performance on Online Learning Between St. Camillus and
St. Ferdinand III Students”
The COVID-19 pandemic shut schools around the world.

Consequently, education has changed drastically, with the
distinguishing rise of online learning, by which teachers are
undertaken remotely and on digital platforms (Li, 2020). In most cases,
students consider math as the toughest subject. Mathematics is a
subject that requires a lot of attention and substantial understanding,
hence disdained by many students (Shing, Voon & Marhana, 2014).
However, teaching and learning mathematics in the new normal is
Introduction
undeniably arduous and hard.
Despite having many advantages, problems such as lack of

motivation, no direct contact with the teacher, and possibly low
interaction in the learning environment are the most prominent
limitations in distance education (Moreno-Ger et al., 2008; Watson,
2010). Such limitations underline the importance of “interaction” in
online learning. Interaction plays a major role in achieving high quality
in online distance learning and in realizing a successful learning
process (Dzakira & Idurs, 2003); Liao, 2006; Offir, Lev &
Bezabel,2008). Online distance learning enables a higher level of
interaction compared to traditional learning. The growing use of the
Internet for online distance learning facilities interaction (Watson,
2010). It is difficult to achieve sufficient interaction in an online learning
environment by displaying mathematical concepts and symbols, which
play a significant role in mathematics education, solely through a
laptop using the keyboard. This seems to be a limitation in the process
of learning mathematics by online learners. Prior research reveals that
mathematics instructors can have difficulty when explaining
mathematical concepts visually in a blended and online distance
mathematics course (Glass & Sue, 2008; Karal et al., 2013). There will
be doubts, uneasiness, and fears. Math teachers might fail in
developing the students towards the twin goals of K-12 Mathematics,
which are critical thinking and problem-solving.
This paper aims to make a study about the comparison of

mathematical skills or level of mathematics performance on online
learning of students because the researchers have seen a lot of
students, especially STEM students having a hard time dealing with
different math problems. The researchers observed that there can be
a significant impact on learner’s growth if the learner's failed to
understand the lesson. The study intends to determine if there is a
significant difference between the performance level on online
mathematics of St. Camillus and St. Ferdinand III students.
This study aims to compare the performance level on online

mathematics between the Grade 11 St. Camillus and St. Ferdinand III
students.
Statement of the Problem Specifically, it aims to answer the following questions:

1.) How may the participants be described in terms of:
a.) Mathematical Skills; and
b.) Online Engagement?
2.) Is there a significant difference between the level of
Mathematics performance on online learning between St.
Camillus students and St. Ferdinand III students?
3.) Based on the findings, what is the implication of the results on
the level of Mathematics performance of Grade 11 St. Camillus
and St. Ferdinand III that undergo online classes?
Sampling Design The two sampling techniques that the researchers will use are
Quota Sampling and Convenience sampling, both of which are
nonprobability sampling. In quota sampling, the researchers start by
identifying quotas, which are predefined control categories such as
age, gender, education, or religion. In this study, Quota Sampling
came into part wherein the research will be using two sections from
the STEM strand. They will set a quota which is 50% of the population
from St. Camillus and St. Ferdinand III. Since there are 44 students
from St. Camillus and there are 43 students from St. Ferdinand III, this
means the researchers are getting 22 students each from the two
sections. Thereafter, convenience sampling will be utilized.
Convenience Sampling also called haphazard sampling, is carried out
as a matter of convenience. The google form link will be sent on the
group chat of the two particular sections, which then will be answered
by those who are available at that time. This method is quick, easy,
inexpensive, fewer rules to follow, and convenient.
Prior to conducting the survey, consent will be asked from the
participants. They have the right to remain anonymous to protect their
privacy. The researchers will give them an assurance that all answers
will be kept confidential. If any chance the participants have questions,
researchers will quickly respond. All the data that will be gathered will
be used for educational purposes and only the researchers will have
the access to the google forms. Furthermore, the google forms that
were used will be firmly stored.
The researchers will be conducting an online survey to gather

the data that will be used in the study. A questionnaire containing the
questions to assess the level of performance on online mathematics
of the chosen respondents will be assembled by the researchers
through Google Forms. After that, the researchers will ask for the
consent of the president of the two (2) chosen sections to administer
the survey. There are 20 respondents from St. Camillus and 20
Data Collection and
respondents from St. Ferdinand III. Moreover, the survey will only be
Procedure
conducted during the break time of the respondents to avoid disturbing
their class hours. The presidents in St. Camillus and St. Ferdinand III
will forward the google form link of the survey to their classmates using
the messenger app. For those who are free and available to answer
the survey, ten (10) minutes would be enough for them to finish it and
all answers will be kept confidential. In addition, immediately after the
target number of respondents answered the survey, it will be closed
and the researchers will examine and interpret the data that will be
collected for the study.
For the design and methodology, the researchers of this study

Sample Size
will be using non-probability sampling, particularly Quota Sampling
and Convenience Sampling, hence there will be no computation in the
sample size.
