Academic Performance in Mathematics during Pandemic among Senior High School Students

Abstract

Mathematics is a critical subject that plays a significant role in shaping a student's academic and career trajectory. However, many students struggle with mathematics, leading to poor academic performance. This research aims to determine the factors affecting the academic performance in mathematics under the pandemic among the senior high school students of Surigaodel Norte State University - Del Carmen Campus. New normal education is ushered in by the pandemic, one where working and learning methods are compelled by digitalization. It pushes education toward increased technologization, a trend that is already well under way and is being supported by commercialism and the dominant market ideology. This study used the descriptive survey research design employing a survey technique. It is used primarily to conduct quantitative research and gather data that is easy to analyze statistically. However, it can also provide qualitative data that will help describe and understand the research subject. Survey questionnaires are the primary method of collecting data for this study. The study found that mental health, study habits, family, and social media all play a role in academic performance
