Vol.3, No.1D

Abstract

Mass media are among the most important integration mechanisms into a society and its culture. They offer information, entertainment, persuasion, and cultural transmission. For good or ill, the media helps define our worldviews, knowledge, and behaviours as individuals and our actions as social actors for the online learning platform of the student. This study aims to identify the influence of mass media towards self-determination on the online learning platform in the new normal education of HUMSS Grade 12 students in Bestlink College of the Philippines. The researchers used a descriptive method as the research design. The instrument used for the survey and questionnaire to gather data. The researchers also searched for related literature and studies.  

A random sampling technique was used in choosing the respondents. Students who lack parental support are unmotivated and active in class performances. The researchers conclude that the online learning platform in the new normal education of HUMSS Grade 12 students is diverting attention, not interested in becoming an academic achiever, lacking focus and confused with the priorities in life of being a Grade 12 student.  Parents must support their children morally and financially and spend time with their children to develop their motivation in self-determination on online learning.
