Abstract
The emergence of new and growing technology has led to evolving student demands, which are poised to revolutionize the education sector. In the modern age of digital technology, being digitally literate is not just a skill but also a requirement for succeeding in school. Additionally, data suggests that pupils digital literacy depends on their preferred learning style. This study is essential to determining local senior high school pupils digital competency and learning styles. This quantitative study used a descriptive-correlational research design with 150 senior high school students who are currently enrolled in Matanao National High School for the 2023–2024 academic year, chosen at random. Two sets of standardized survey questionnaires were used to evaluate senior high school pupils digital competency and learning styles. According to a study, seniors in high school display a significant affinity for different learning styles while also having a high degree of digital competency. The auditory learning style does not seem to have a significant role, especially in advanced digital tool usage, even though there is a significant association between learning style preferences and numerous areas of digital competence, particularly in using digital tools and managing platforms. In order to improve students digital competency, the researcher advises educational institutions to implement a variety of teaching methodologies that meet the needs of visual and collaborative learners. When creating digital tools and platforms, technology developers and suppliers should take senior high school students varied learning preferences into account. Legislators should also prioritize digital literacy programs when creating curricular frameworks and educational regulations so that all students, regardless of learning preferences, acquire fundamental digital skills. More studies are required to understand further the connection between digital competency and learning styles in various age groups and educational situations.
