    QUARTER 4, WEEK 2

    a. Distance Learning and the Time of COVID-19 Pandemic

    Since 2020, we had been experiencing the COVID-19 pandemic. Schools were
    closed in order to prevent the virus from spreading. This was also done so that the
    students and school personnels would be safe and healthy. Because of the closure
    of schools and DepEd’s goal to still be able to deliver quality basic education, we
    were introduced to Distance Learning.

    Distance Learning refers to the form of education in which the main elements
    include physical separation of teachers and students during instruction and the use
    of various technologies to facilitate student-teacher and student-student
    communication. This has both advantages and disadvantages. Schools/Universities
    benefit by adding students without having to construct classrooms and housing,
    and students reap the advantages of being able to work where and when they
    choose. Accessibility and convenience are important advantages of this mode of
    education. Well-designed programs can also bridge intellectual, cultural, and social
    differences between students. It actually relies on the educational tools of online
    learning, and that is probably the reason why there is confusion between distance
    learning and online learning. Since distance learning is remote, this leads to
    students connecting to schools, making it more accessible for students in different
    countries. It is also known to be more affordable for students in different socio-
    economic levels. This provides an equal opportunity for people to access higher
    education despite restrictions or locations. However, among its disadvantages
    include: 1. It may cause isolation, 2. It requires time management and self-
    motivation skills, 3. It is difficult to prevent cheating, 4. Teachers focus more on
    theory instead of practice, and 5. Students may neglect exercise and physical
    health. Moreover, there can also be lack of instant communication since teachers
    cannot give their feedbacks to students’ responses immediately.
