Implementation of GENYO e-Learning in Saint Columban College: An Evaluation

The quest for superior education directs to advancing information and communications technology (ICT). Hence, this study's primary purpose was to evaluate teachers' and students' perceptions of utilizing GENYO e-Learning at Saint Columban College- Secondary Department during the school year 2014-2015. This study also sought to reveal the problems/challenges encountered in implementing GENYO e-Learning and suggestions for improvement. This evaluation concluded that the implementation of GENYO e-Learning is successful and effective. However, the teachers averagely utilized the online learning platform in their teaching. This study asserted that the students demonstrated positive attitudes and beliefs towards implementing e-learning in the school curriculum. However, there is still room for improvement for GENYO e-Learning integration in upgrading internet connection, workability or maintenance of computers and other related resources, better infrastructure in general, and intensified assistance from the Learning Integration Specialist (LIS) since they are essential in the progress of learning. Likewise, time constraints in making the lesson packages for teachers and studying and answering the learning activities through GENYO e-Learning for students, inadequacy or malfunctioning of computers, schedule, or non-availability of GENYO Laboratory, unavailable links or attached files in the assigned lessons, broken laboratory materials such as the headset, keyboard and mouse, and electrical power interruption (brown-out) are also a hassle in the teaching-learning process
