The Role of the Parents in

Modular Distance Learning

In a distance learning approach, parents would have to
play an active role in the learning process. They would be
the one to facilitate and guide their children through the
modular lessons that would be sent to students while
doing remote learning.
The modular approach situates Filipino students to learn
in the comfort of their homes. Limited contact with
teachers will place parents or guardians as the learners’
model.
Parents are their first teachers and they have a key role in
shaping up their character. A balance of education at
home and school molds a student's actual learning. ...
Parental encouragement had played a crucial role in
successful students. Their role is not limited to home but
involvement in school activities too.
Parents are partners of teachers in education. They are
‘home facilitators,’ the ‘tagapagdaloy‘ (channel), but they
will not teach the subject matter.
The parents’ primary role in modular learning is to
establish a connection and guide the child. Parents or
guardians should be responsible for interacting with
teachers, barangay representatives, and other stakeholders
to acquire the various materials and resources needed by
the learner (i.e., modules or textbooks); regularly check
the child’s workweek plan and make sure that the learner
sticks to their schedule; prepare a conducive learning
study space for the learner; and give appropriate praises,
encouragement, and rewards to heighten their child’s
motivation to learn.
