Placencia Jr., Jaypee R. Lopres Cebu Technological University Main Campus Cebu City Philippines New Mexico Public Education Department Gallup McKinley County Schools, New Mexico, USA Abstract— The Philippine educational system has been facing new normal impediments in the delivery of instruction. Addressing to such trials, the Department of Education (Dept. Ed) takes step on Alternative Learning Modality that provides different learning platforms and formulated the Basic Education Learning Continuity Plan (LCP) to ensure continuous learning while guaranteeing the health safety and well-being of all educational stakeholders. The purpose of this research was to determine the learning conditions of grade eleven students in response to modular instruction as mode preference towards Oral Communication and General Mathematics performance. It also determined the significant relationship between the respondents’ perceived quality of modular instruction and students’ performance in two identified subjects with corresponding competencies. The study conducted using the positive correlational designs. There were 210 respondents were selected through stratified random sampling, and quota sampling. An online survey through Google Form structural link was used to conduct data gathering procedure for information collection. It was sent to students through messengers or e-mails ensuring the high level of accuracy and consistency of information. The gathered data were treated statistically using chi- square of relationship and weighted mean as sub-statistical tool. Based on the findings, the respondents’ perceived quality of modular instruction and their academic performance were not significantly related. Moreover, the learning conditions of most of the students apparently was in good condition though they encountered high intense of challenges. In light with the result of the study, it can be concluded that the quality of modular delivery of instruction as perceived by the students is not significantly affecting their academic performance. However, as perceived that the internal and external factors were in good conditions that occur almost all the time, positively contributed to attain average to above average academic performance in both subjects. Furthermore, the learning conditions significantly affecting the academic performance of the students wherein an increase of occurrence brings some change to the learning outcomes. So, it is recommended to have instruction augmentation addressing the barriers encountered by teachers and students for effective delivery outcomes.

I. INTRODUCTION The greatest ability of everyone is to learn regardless of situations. Learning depends on the events of instructions, which provide variety of exposures and conditions. New condition has taken place when COVID -19 emerged and placing countries under state of national health emergency. The normal situation in education is transformed to a new normal featuring the various measures and restrictions on face-to face teaching. In this new normal, the delivery of education faces big challenges and adjustments in providing continuous learning and
