Effect of Digitization of School Forms on the Stress Level and Human Relations of Public Secondary School Teachers in Fifth District of Manila
Abstract
The objective of this study is to understand the effect of digitization of school forms on the stress level and human relations of public secondary school teachers in fifth district of Manila. To answer the study questions, the researcher followed the descriptive correlational method. The sample of the study consisted of (31) teachers of the Manila Secondary Public School Teachers. The relationship between level of familiarity and level of human relations is found to be not significant with Sig. value = 0.188 at α = 0.05. The study shows the ANOVA results where the educational attainment is the grouping variable and the dependent variable is the stress level. It was revealed that there is no significant difference in the stress level when the teachers are grouped according to profile such as educational attainment reflective of the F value of 0.339 with the corresponding probability value of 0.715 which is greater than alpha 0.05. While there is no significant results noted, it is interesting to note that the teachers with master’s degree has the highest mean score when it comes to stress tolerance followed by with bachelor’s degree and doctorate’s degree with the mean value of 0.950 and 0.886 respectively. The study reveals the t-Test for Independent samples for Human Relations in the digitized school forms for male and female teachers. It can be gathered from the table that the male mean score of 3.100 and the female mean score of 3.092 got a computed t-value of 0.025 with the corresponding probability value of 0.981 which is greater than alpha 0.05 is interpreted not significant. Hence, the null hypothesis is accepted. People are all vulnerable to stress due to a lot of stressors that threatens our wellbeing. Going paperless and digitizing school forms will help save money and enhanced teachers productivity as well as promotion of human relations.
The study also recommended the need to hold training courses and workshops for secondary schools in order to deepen the concept of human relations.
