Abstract Mathematics remains a significant academic challenge for many Filipino students, with international assessments indicating an alarmingly 16% proficiency level. This study aimed to determine the digital platforms used and the students’ behavior in learning Mathematics in the Balingasag Districts, Division of Misamis Oriental during the School Year 2024–2025. Specifically, it sought to assess the respondents’ level on the use of digital platforms and find students’ level of learning behaviors and determine the relationship between respondents’ digital platforms usage and students’ behaviors in learning Mathematics. Using a descriptive correlational research design, this study involved 150 Grade 7 Public High School students selected through stratified sampling. A researcher-made questionnaire was employed and statistical treatments such as mean, standard deviation, and Pearson Correlation Coefficient to describe the variables and its relationship.
Findings revealed that the respondents demonstrated very high usage of digital platforms, with educational apps receiving the highest engagement. In terms of behavior, students exhibited very high levels, with task completion scoring the highest, though empathy and support scored the lowest. A significant relationship existed between the use of educational apps and participation on students’ behavior in learning Mathematics. The study concludes that educational apps provide individualized learning pathways, providing the needs of the students particularly in Mathematics, and task completion is essential for the students’ behavior and personal development.
