MODULE 3, LESSON 1, ACTIVITY 1: ANSWER KEY 1

Face-to-face (F2F) learning refers to a learning delivery modality where the teacher and learner/s are
physically in one venue. There are opportunities for active engagement, immediate feedback and
socioemotional development of learners. It may be conducted in any available physical learning space.

Distance learning refers to a learning delivery modality where a learner is given materials or access to
resources and he/she undertakes self-directed study at home or in another venue. Learners engage in
independent learning at home or in any physical learning space applicable, by using learning materials that
are accessible either online, stored on CD/DVD/USB Flash drive, or in printed form, or by viewing TV
lessons or listening to radio-based instruction while being geographically distant from the teacher. The
teacher supervises and monitors the learner’s progress and provides remediation and enhancement when
needed and possible. Assistance may be provided by a learning facilitator who may be a parent or any
member of the family, or a community stakeholder.

Blended learning refers to a learning delivery modality using a combination of the features of F2F learning
and distance learning. It can be (1) F2F and modular distance learning; (2) F2F and online distance learning;
(3) F2F and TV-based instruction/Radio-based instruction; or (4) F2F and any combination of the other
types of distance learning.

Home schooling refers to an alternative learning delivery mode (ADM) that provides learners with access
to formal education while staying in an out-of-school environment, with parents, guardians, or tutors as
authorized facilitators instead of classroom teachers. This does not preclude going to a school on specific
periods to develop learning competencies that require the use of laboratory, equipment, and others. It
uses any or a combination of the various learning delivery modalities.
