ABSTRACT

The Department of Education (DepEd) has institutionalized the Learner Information System (LIS) to streamline enrollment, recordkeeping, and learner monitoring across public schools in the Philippines. This study assessed the LIS among 235 secondary school teachers in District III, Division of Olongapo City, focusing on perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, actual use, and behavioral intention to use. Anchored on the modified Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), the research employed a descriptive survey design supported by thematic content analysis to identify system-related challenges. Results revealed that teachers strongly agreed on the usefulness and ease of use of the LIS, particularly in managing learner data and generating reports. However, actual use was hindered by technical issues such as system downtime, slow connectivity, and data management errors. No significant differences were observed in teachers’ responses when grouped according to age, sex, teaching experience, or educational attainment. Thematic analysis surfaced recurring challenges, including system unresponsiveness, difficulty in correcting records, and heavy user load during peak periods. Findings highlight the importance of infrastructure enhancement, continuous training, and timely system support. The study recommends a technology enhancement plan to strengthen LIS implementation and improve teacher competency.
