was used where the respondents were picked
randomly from a subset of participants from a

undergone content validation to check its
functionality andreliability. Simple percentages,
weighted mean, and chi-square were used in
treating the data.

RESULTS
The following were the findings of the study:
1. Most of the respondents belong to the age of 18-19. Majority of the
respondents were females.
2. The respondents' responses in the indicator teaching methods are
interpretedas oftenwith a weighted mean of 4.10. The respondents'
responses in the indicator teacher behaviour and personality are
interpretedas oftenwith a weighted mean of 4.18. The res pondents'
responses inthe indicator parental habits and involvement is interpreted
as oftenwitha weighted meanof 3.91.The respondents'responses in the
indicator technical issues are interpretedas often witha weighted mean
of 3.84.
3. There is no significant relationshipbetweenthe respondents'age and the
factors influencingrespondents' motivation to learn in an online class.
There is no significant relationshipbetweenthe respondents'gender and
the factors influencingrespondents' motivation to learn inanonline class.
CONCLUSIONS
Based on the findings, the researchers conclude that the factors influencing respondents' motivation to learn in
an online class indicate "often." Most of the participants were females within the age bracket of 18-19 years old.
Moreover, the results showed that the participants' profile shows no strong association between the profile of
respondents and the factors that influence respondents' motivation to learn in an online class. Therefore, these findings
affirmthe attribution theory by FritzHeider that failuredueto lack of skill,failure due to poor teaching, and other factors
may affect student motivation to learn in an online class.
