The researcher administered the survey questionnaire to the Selected 40 students
from grade 7 to grade 10 students. Asked the respondent to fill in the forms and returns it
to the researcher for checking if they actually answer it truthfully. After the respondent
answering the questionnaire, the researcher collected and gathered all the
questionnaires to analysis.
Statistical Analysis Tools
The data of the variables in this study was analyzed using descriptive statistics such as mean,
frequency, percentage and standard deviation.
Mean-This tool was used to describe the average expressed in the distribution of the collected
survey data as centrality of the number responded by the respondents.
Frequency-This tool was used to assess and describe the occurrence of the number of cases in
the categorized scaling of responses shown in the distribution of the survey data.
Percentage- This tool was used to describe the number as a result, expressed in percent (%) in
the distribution of the collected survey data
Standard Deviation-This tool will be used to establish the dispersion of the score from the
arithmetic mean of the distribution of the distribution.
FINDINGS
1. The Profile of the Respondents in terms of their Age, Sex, and Grade Level
Table 1 shows the age and gender of the respondents in the respective Grade levels. Four (4) Grade levels
comprised Grades 7, 8, 9, and 10. The profile of the respondents in terms of age, sex, and grade level was gathered
The respondents in Grade 7 were all between the ages of 12 and 14, with seven females and three males
making up 10, with a 100% total percentage. While Grade 8 has six males and four females with a total of 10
respondents, and their ages are 12-14 with eight respondents and 15-18 with two respondents with 80% percentage
in 12-14 while 20% in 15- 18 ages. On the other hand, Grade 9 had five males and five females with a total of 10, and
their ages were 12-14 with four respondents and 15-18 with six respondents, with 40% percentage 12-14 while 60%
in 15- 18 ages. Lastly, Grade 10 respondents had six females and four males for their gender, with a total of 10, and

2 .The Types of Computer Application Software and Devices the
Respondents are Mostly Exposed to
Table 2 presents what devices the respondents can utilize while accomplishing their school tasks. It
shows that most respondents use a cell phone when completing their studies, with 80% of the respondents
using it. While 18% of the respondents were exposed to a desktop or computer and 2 % to a laptop. The
result implies that most of our respondents use cell phones, desktops/computers, and laptops to accomplish
their tasks.
Table 3 reveals the frequency and percentage of the types of application software the respondents are
exposed to utilize during class activities. The respondents commonly use five software applications; the first is
Microsoft word, with a percentage of 63%. The second 23% are the other applications; the third is Microsoft power
point and publisher with 7% of the total percentage.
The result implies that most of our respondents are more exposed to MS Word than other application
software since most of our respondents are more capable of using MS word. The teacher also commonly
introduces it when the task is all about encoding. Some of our respondents use Google when answering their daily
tasks since it is faster than any other application.

are Mostly Exposed to
Table 4 presents the time consumed by the respondents’ utilizing computers/devices in their daily school-related tasks. It
shows that the Grade 7 respondents, with a percentage of 30 %, have yet to use or almost never used computers/gadgets in their
school-related studies. In comparison, two respondents (20%) rarely used them, and two respondents sometimes/occasionally
used them. Meanwhile, seven Grade 8 respondents, with a percentage of 70%, rarely used computers/devices, two respondents,
with 20% of the total rate, sometimes/occasionally utilized it, and one respondent, with 10%, almost never used it. On the other
hand, four and two respondents of Grade 9 utilized the computer or any gadgets every time and sometimes consecutively, with
40% of the total percentage each. While only two respondents, 20%, rarely used the computer in their studies. Of the Grade 10
respondents, only four respondents, 40% of the total percentage, sometimes/occasionally used the computer. In comparison,
three respondents each almost every time and almost never utilized a computer for their school-related tasks with 30% of the total
percentage each.
