This study was conducted to determine the learning behavior of Bachelor of Science in Information Technology students in Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges Buhi Campus for the school year 2020-2021. Specifically, it sought to answer the following questions: What is the profile of the respondents in terms of Age, Sex and Monthly Income? The profile of the respondents along Age, Sex, Family Income in the previous semester.

What are the learning behaviors of the students in terms of: Physical, Affective, Cognitive and Physiological? The learning behavior of Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, Physical, data revealed that herein respondents, according to the physical study, had an average weighted mean of 2.84. Therefore, BSIT students of CSPC Buhi Campus experienced the effect of their learning behavior in terms of the sound, noise, light, temperature, design/settings and time of the day, through learning the students are able to motivated and sharpen their idea by thinking critically and creatively.
It will also enhance their participation by involving in all the activities in the room.

In terms of affective elements, respondents performed better when they are motivated. 4. In terms of cognitive elements respondents like to learn while using various machine like computers that can make them easily find answers and can make the work easier. 5.
