One hundred (100) respondents were randomly selected from chosen public and private elementary schools namely, Casa del Niño Jesus de Lucban (CDNJL), Lucban Adventist Elementary School (LAES), Paaralang Elementarya ng Lucban 1 (PEL 1), and Southern Luzon State University Laboratory Elementary School (SLSU LES). Using weighted mean and chi-square as the statistical measures, results showed that pupils from CDNJL ranked second in cognitive skills, third in the affective and psychomotor skills relevant to computer. Pupils from LAES, however, emerged fourth in the three domains of learning, as contrasted to pupils from PEL 1 who ranked third in the cognitive skills, but first on the affective and psychomotor skills.
