Abstract:
In the Philippines, English teachers face additional challenges with online learning, particularly
regarding connectivity issues and the teaching of grammar. Students also struggle with modular distance
learning due to the lack of stable social and physical interactions. Considering these challenges, evaluating
the effectiveness of online learning in English language teaching can inform decision-making among
education stakeholders. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the effectiveness of online learning for Grade 11
English language instruction. To investigate this, the study employed an experimental research design to
assess the effectiveness of online English language instruction for Grade 11 students. An equal number of 30
students were allocated to both the control and experimental groups. Specifically, the control group
comprised 30 GAS students receiving instruction through the modular approach, while the experimental
group consisted of 30 HUMSS students undergoing online English language instruction. A comparative
analysis was conducted to ascertain differences between the pretest mean scores of students taught using
modular versus online methods, differences between their posttest mean scores under these approaches, and
discrepancies between their pretest and posttest mean scores across both approaches. Results revealed that
modular and online approaches to teaching English were both effective to the students considering that no
significant difference was shown in their pretest mean scores. However, the students were more comfortable
with online learning since there was a significant difference in the post-test mean scores when taught using
modular and online learning.
