specially when its related to their specialize subjects. There are plenty of negative effects of not
36
having a personal computer and most of the information technology students on Iligan Computer

Institute (ICI) don’t have personal computer.

Recommendation

Base on the conclusion drawn, the following are the recommendations.

1.) The specialized teacher must consider that most of the students can’t submit the

activities in just a short period of time specially when it is a big project. They must give

enough time base on the activity and skills of the students.

2.) For those students who doesn’t have personal computer must have a double

attention on the given task so that they can easily catch up and make their activities on

time.

3.) For the future researchers, who will have the advantage to continue this study

and to make this as one of their resources in making their research. They have the benefit

to continue what the present researchers had started.
