their mobile phone to get their assignment done but, we still have 6%(2) students never use
their mobile phone to get their assignment done and 56%(17) of the respondents sometimes
while, there are 6%(2) who seldom.

The illustrative graph above in Fig.10,shows that, 33.3%(10) stated that using of
mobile phone in the school premises is probihited but, we still have stubborn 66.6%(20) who
use mobile phone in the school. However, in Fig.11, 66%(20) respondents have been using
mobile phone for more than one(1) year while, there are 10%(3) between three(3) months and
one(1) year and 26%(18) are just recently using mobile phone.

The Fig.13-14 shows that, the highest average score was found that the students can
easily contact their teachers and classmate for study purposes and can sometimes lead them to
high performance in the school. It was based in the data above and in Fig. 15, respondents
were asked whether their academic performance has increase with the use of mobile phone,
the results showed that 63% of the students stated that it has partiay increased, 13% said that
it has not increased and the other 26.6% suggested that their academic performance has
definitely increased, and 13% respondents disagree the idea of mobile phone dependcy to
their academic performance. It has been proved that mobile phone have helped students
increased their academic performance, even though it is not in a huge way, but it increases
nonetheless.

The Fig.17, shows that, the highest average score was found 43.3% sometimes stated
that mobile phone are used to their study and in Fig.18, also stated that mobile phone is most
useful to students when they are researching that can help to their study while, in Fig.16,
shows that the highest average score was found that the students uses dictionary/thesaurus,
and calculator in class and sometimes lead them to high performance in the school.
It was based in the data above but, In Fig. 15, 56.6% was found that the respondents don't use
their mobile phone in class to enhance their understanding about a topic.

In the Fig.19, the finding shows that the highest score was found that the students
don't use mobile phone during class hours that means majority of respondents have a good
academic performance and attitude on how they handle using mobile phone. Also, in Fig 20,
56% of the respondents never been distracted of mobile phone during class hours while, in
Fig.21, the 83% respondents are distracted from facebook with the highest average score.

As the data were gathered, the researcher can say that grade-7 students of
Concepcion National High School are sometimes active in using mobile phone for
educational purposes like researching and answering assignments because of their overall
total in the Fig.17, and sometimes the students uses dictionary/thesaurus, and calculator that
is proven in Fig. 16.it shows that they are capable of handling and managing the right way in
using mobile phone.

As for the distraction of mobile phone during class hours, student's opinion is
divided according to the Fig.19, some says it is not and some says otherwise and there are
circumstances that students often distracted in facebooking that is one of the application of
their mobile phone according to the Fig.7 and 21.

In our research we proved that the effectiveness of mobile phone towards grade 7
students of Concepcion National High School in relation to their academic performance can
both be helpful and distraction it all depends on their attitude and how should mobile phone
be used. Their academic performance depends to their attitude if they will let themselves be
out of control in using mobile phone or limit themselves to important things to avoid
distraction but, as the data were gathered, the respondents are good student's according to the
overall total of their responds and the students also proved to us that they know how to
handle themselves in using mobile.

One of the reason why researcher say that the grade-7 student's academic performance in
Concepcion National High is good, is because we gathered the past periodical grades of
students and we found out that there are no respondents who failed in their first periodical
grades they are all passed and also it proved in the Fig.14, that most of the respondents stated
that their academic performance has partially increased, it means they are doing good in their
study.
