Better Mode of Learning

The pandemic has been affecting everything including the education system.
These days the conundrum is which mode of learning is more effective. Is it modular
learning in which students no longer have to commute going to school or face-to-face
learning wherein students can gain greater understanding from teachers and other
students?

The advantage that traditional learning presents are the ability to discuss,
collaborate, practice, and role-play, all live and with guidance from a teacher on hand.
Being in a group and being held accountable are powerful learning tools. In modular
learning, the main challenges to be encountered are self-studying, poor internet
connection, and time to answer all the modules due to the great number of activities,
distractions, and lack of focus.

To wrap it all up, Face to face learning is more effective way to learn knowledge
and skills because it often combines different ways of learning unlike modular. But
considering the situation right now, we can’t put the lives of the students at risk.
