Abstract

Alternative Learning System (ALS) must actively assist students to avoid their falling behind in program participation or failing the Accreditation and Equivalency (A-E) test. Costs, access, and learning objectives that conflict with those of other students' interests and obligations are some of the barriers to learning and program completion in ALS. Thus, this study investigates the challenges in ALS instructional materials and the use of ICT and smartphones from international to local settings. The following are the findings of the study: (1) The Mobile Facilitated Instructional Material needs of the ALS Learners are highly needed and should be centered in containing relevant and detailed lesson learned at students own pacing. (2) The acceptability level of the developed Mobile Facilitated Instructional Material in content, layout, and utility aspect is highly acceptable in all aspects and indicators (3)The students' pre-test scores increased from did not meet expectations to outstanding in post-test. (4) There is a significant difference in the students' scores, before and after the use of the Mobile Facilitated Instructional Material. (5)The Mobile Facilitated Instructional Material may be continuously developed for enhancement along the identified needs in Life Skills for ALS learners. (6) The material may further be tested in bigger number of students with varied contents and activities.
