Abstract :
Today´s trend and most popular alternative medium of education is online or electronic learning. The term, electronic learning (e-learning), is being used to all types of technology-enhanced learning through the use of computers, digital technology, internet, including, but not limited to, software. This study was conducted to assess the readiness of having online classes for Computer Engineering students of Technological Institute of the Philippines-Quezon City (TIP-QC) campus. Chi-square test, weighted mean, and percentage were used to interpret the data gathered. The study revealed that the level of awareness of the students to e-learning was evident as well as the level of readiness, mindset, knowledge and skills. The use of online instruction mode also increases the students´ aptitude.
