INTRODUCTION
Learning is defined as the knowledge or skills in which the learners gather information from their teachers. Learning is reflected on how the students respond to different aspects in our lives, in our environment, social, emotional, physical and how to understand new information (Collins Concise Dictionary and Thesaurus of English Language, 2012). The researchers conducted this study to know the learning process of the students. This study measured the effects of insufficient learning materials on the learning process of the students in terms of concrete experience, reflective, analysis, and active experimentation. Results will be used to devise method needed to increase the academic performance of the students.
METHODS
This study utilized the descriptive design. Non-probability sampling technique in the form of purposive sampling was used to select the respondents of this study. A total of 164 students from Grade 12 were selected.
