 Research Questions
This study aims to Non-participation in group work on the academic outcomes of CSS
students of TCNHS

*Specific Questions!:

1. What are the perceived effects of non-participation in group projects on students grades in
the computer system servicing program at Talisay National High School?

2. How does the absence of collaboration in group work affect the development of critical skills
among css students?

3. In what ways does non-participation in group activities influence student motivation and
overall academic engagement of css students?
