Abstract

This study investigated the determining factors of blended learning success in educational institutions in the Philippines. Through discriminant analysis, Infrastructure and Technology Mastery, Implementation Standards and Guidelines, Learning Strategy, as well as respondent status and learning environment were examined. The findings revealed that Infrastructure and Technology Mastery, Implementation Standards and Guidelines, and Learning Strategy significantly influenced blended learning success. Institutions investing in robust technological infrastructure, clear implementation guidelines, and diverse learning strategies achieved higher success rates. Surprisingly, respondent status and learning environment did not significantly impact success, indicating consistent perceptions across different groups and contexts. The study highlights the importance of effective implementation and resource provision in blended learning initiatives. Understanding these factors can guide educators and institutions in enhancing blended learning experiences for better student outcomes and educational effectiveness.
