considerate in assigning some tasks and activities to their students because most of them

don’t have enough materials to finish the given tasks.

due date to avoid cramming or connectivity issues that may affect their scores or also

their grades in the given task.

 The researchers recommend also expanding this study not only for the grade 11 students

of Notre Dame of Greater Manila but also for the other students that are experiencing

this kind of issue during this pandemic.
