INTRODUCTION
COVID-19 has made a drastic change not only in our health system but also in
education. The shift from the old way of learning to the new normal did not only
overwhelm the students but teachers as well. It has brought far-reaching changes in all
aspects of our lives. Social distancing and restrictive movement policies have

is now through different platforms such as Google Classroom, LMS, Schoology, and the
like, even social media platforms, such as Facebook pages and Messenger. As to student
activities, most of the students at the tertiary level are expected to submit their activities
online, either through email or whichever online platform the teacher was utilizing.

Student-teacher interaction is very different now. The instructor is usually the focal point
online courses can lack this immediate connection since students are usually interacting
with various online learning resources rather than a live instructor. Without meaningful
interaction with the instructor, students can feel disconnected and become demotivated.
However, instructors can design online courses that enable them to interact with and
teach students ain meaningful ways to move them toward learning goals and begin
thinking in new and more profound ways (York & Richardson, 2012).

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
This chapter presents the review of related literature and studies, conceptual
Online education has been a subject of study for many years now. It became of
prime interest among educational researchers because they find it interesting. Several
models have been developed about online teaching. Different variables have been
assessment, instructor role online, student role online, online communication, and source
Online education eliminated the physical meeting of the teacher and the students.
But for the students to learn, they have to do certain things that would lead to the
achievement of the learning outcome. Student activities are a significant aspect of student
learning as well as online education. They dictate the tempo and act as a motivator of the
learner (Wandag, 2017) and need to be carefully planned (Gatchalian, 2019). Students
prefer engaging activities using technology like creating blogs or engaging in a social
media conversation. They put so much value on technology in performing tasks assigned
by the teachers (Meyer, 2020) and view reading stories from the book and solving
poses a lot of problems. Students feel isolated and lose the opportunity to engage in a
healthy educational conversation with their teachers. The teacher’s role shifted from sage
in the stage to guide by the side. One of the problems identified by the students is the lack
of personal touch in learning because there is no teacher beside them during the learning
process (Dingcong, 2020). This feeling of isolation reduces the performance among
public school students in Cebu (Magpantay, 2019). Schools that regularly conduct
synchronous classes have higher learner achievement compared to those that have
(Kampos, 2020). The role of the teacher is still perceived by the students to be elemental
in their learning (Delgado, 2018) even if education has shifted to online classes. The way
a teacher deals with his students in an online class is seen to be of vital importance to the
Students have a medium feeling that distance learning has been enhancing their
effectiveness, productivity, and self-efficacy. Students find IT tools intuitive and are
generally comfortable with computers and the internet. However, the students still prefer
synchronous and asynchronous online instruction in higher education. The study revealed
that the potential best medium used for online learning is anecdotal and not evidence-

based. Collaborative works using the internet are also very acceptable among the tertiary
students in Australia (Bruch, 2019), while simulation games using computers are more
advantages and disadvantages for each. Asynchronous class favors students because they
are not forced to attend classes on a scheduled time, but they lost the opportunity of
interacting with their teacher on a real-time basis. Synchronous classes can be restrictive,
but engagement with the teacher is a perceived advantage. Middle school students in
Guam, USA, favored synchronous classes and perceived it as an opportunity to learn and
socialize digitally (Reno, 2017), while the case is untrue for high school students in the
rural Philippines who view such as unfair because of unstable internet connection as well
as the cost associated with it. Meanwhile, college students enrolled in private universities
Filipino counterparts, on the other hand, seemed to view it otherwise (Vargas, 2020), as
online or classroom setting. It provides the core information that students will experience,
learn and apply (Obrero, 2019). Examples of instructional materials are print, digital,
multimedia, open education resources, and even the internet (Heizer, 2017). The quality

Class requirements are the basis of rating students’ performance. It varies on the
level of the students, their location, and the subject (Chavez, 2015). Shifting from
(Juan, 2019).
Requirements in online classes are usually more flexible on the part of the
students because of the independence they have while working on it (Cabrera, 2020). The
online learning is implemented. Students are given lesser number of class works with
longer deadlines compared to the traditional classroom model (Stevens, 2020). However,
students view class requirements and their deadlines as taxing when factors like internet
connectivity and financial resources do not favor them (Tagore, 2020) and it is seen as
2020).

According to the research conducted by Amir et al., (2020), the preference for
distance learning can be attributed to the year level of the students. Those new to the
university tend to prefer distance learning over those who have stayed longer on the
campus. In terms of group discussion, distance learning is more tedious than classroom
learning because of communication issues that lead to less learning satisfaction. Distance

Synthesis
Based on the literature cited, it can be concluded that the shift to distance learning
has brought a drastic change in the educational landscape. Students’ perceptions are
divided as to the acceptability of the synchronous classes. Teaching materials are still
activities that are interactive and technology-based. Requirements and deadlines are seen
to be more favorable under online learning since independence and leniency of the due
date are enjoyed by the students. Flexible learning detached the students from their
teachers. Teachers are viewed to be a mainstay element of education despite the distance.
Students still feel the need for someone who guides them in their academic journey.
