摘要

In an educational setting in the Philippines, stress has been a rising issue in distance learning during the pandemic. Hence, this qualitative study explored the type of stressors, impacts, and coping strategies in the case of learners in rural areas during distance education. Multiple data sources were collected through Interview Guide Questions answered by college students, parents, and instructors. The participants were 50 students who were identified as academically stress based on the pre-interview, 50 corresponding parents and 10 corresponding instructors. The research design used was Merriam's case study and content analysis for the treatment of data. The findings of the study revealed that during the pandemic the students in rural areas experienced various stressors such as digital infrastructure/digital poverty, academic workloads and difficulties in understanding the module’s content and these stressors have affected the student's academic engagements, personality development, physiological health, and mental health. Learners have chosen to combat these stressors using coping strategies: problem-focused, emotion-focused, and avoidance-focused. It revealed that this study can be a basis for intervention programs to strengthen ways to assess and combat stressors through stress management programs and the like.
