Barriers and Challenges of Computing Students in an Online Learning Environment: Insights from One Private University in the Philippines

Purpose -While the literature presents various advantages of using blended learning, policymakers must identify the barriers and challenges faced by students that may cripple their online learning experience. Understanding these barriers can help academic institutions craft policies to advance and improve the students' online learning experience. This study was conducted to determine the challenges of computing students in one private University in the Philippines during the period where the entire Luzon region was placed under the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
