Abstract

This study aimed at determining the Teachers’ Resiliency and Attitude towards Distance Learning Modality in a New Normal Education in Lavezares I District, Division of Northern Samar, for school year 2020-2021. Respondents were assessed as to their level of resiliency in relation to their attitude towards distance learning modality in the New Normal. The study utilized arithmetic mean, frequency counts, and percentages to present the teachers’ profile, level of resiliency as well as their attitude towards distance learning modality in the New Normal. Likewise, Multiple Regression (MR) analysis was employed to test the relationship between teachers’ profile and their level of resiliency, as well as between teachers’ profile and their attitude towards distance learning modality. The same test was utilized to test the relationship between teachers’ resiliency and their attitude towards distance learning modality in the New Normal. Findings revealed that most of the teachers in Lavezares District were 31-38 years old; females; married; bachelors’ degree holders; teaching Grades 9-10 students; currently handling teacher-I position; 7 and below years in the service as teachers; and with IPCRF rating of 3.500-4.499. Generally, the teachers in Lavezares I District were found to be “highly resilient” in performing their duties and responsibilities as teachers in the Department of education. As to their attitude towards distance learning modality in a New Normal, it was found to be “favorable”, which means that teachers have sense of acceptance to the new modality of learning in the present New Normal educational system. Regression analysis revealed that generally, there is no significant relationship between the profile of the teachers and their resiliency level in teaching, though, it was the position which came out to be significant factor, but it did not affect to the overall significance value. On the hand, findings of the study revealed a significant relationship between profile of the teachers and their attitude towards distance learning modality in a New Normal education. In particular, it was the gender, position, and monthly family income of the teachers which found to be significant factors that influenced their attitude towards the new modality of learning in a New Normal. Finally, regression analysis found a significant relationship between teachers’ resiliency level and their attitude towards distance learning modality in a New Normal.
