Technological Readiness, Resilience, And Learning Performance of Vocational Students in A Public State University Amidst Class Disruptions

Amid recurring class disruptions in higher education, this study examined the technological readiness, resilience, and learning performance of vocational students amidst class disruptions at Cebu Technological University – Main Campus. Specifically, it focused on Bachelor of Technical Vocational Teacher Education (BTVTEd) and Bachelor of Technology and Livelihood Education (BTLEd) students who experienced class disruptions caused by natural and environmental hazards. The study aimed to determine the levels of technological readiness and resilience of students and to analyze their relationship with learning performance during disruptive learning conditions. A descriptive-correlational research design was employed. Data were gathered using a researcher- developed questionnaire grounded on established theoretical and empirical studies on technological readiness, resilience, and academic performance. Statistical tools such as weighted mean and Pearson’s correlation coefficient were utilized to describe the variables and examine their relationships. The findings revealed that students demonstrated a moderate to high level of technological readiness and resilience despite recurring class disruptions. Moreover, a significant positive relationship was found between technological readiness, resilience, and learning performance, indicating that students who were better prepared technologically and psychologically performed more effectively in their academic tasks. Based on the findings, an intervention plan was proposed to enhance students’ technological readiness and resilience through capacity- building activities, flexible instructional strategies, and structured academic and psychosocial support. The study concludes that strengthening technological and resilience-related competencies is essential in sustaining learning performance of vocational students in disaster-prone learning environments.
