Lived Experiences of ALS Learners on Blended Learning at Dolores National High School

The purpose of this study was to gain a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of how Alternative Learning System (ALS) learners engaged in blended learning. Five (5) learners with an Alternative Learning System (ALS) from Dolores National High School were included in a purposeful sampling. Unstructured interviews were used in the study of phenomenological research design to examine the data analysis. Thematic Analysis was used in the study as a method of qualitative data analysis. The Alternative Learning System (ALS) learners will be able to pursue their study because of the opportunity that the ALS program supplied and give satisfaction which is one of the common special benefits of blended learning. Additionally, they can make the most of their time because they are only required to complete modules during the whole academic year. They can use this time for their obligations and priorities. Despite the difficulties they faced due to their distance from school and difficulty in transportation, they were able to overcome these challenges and will make time for their desire to retake the course with high morale and self-confidence as a reap of their achievements.
