LEARNING TIPS
WHAT IS DISTANCE
LEARNING?
Distance learning describes any
learning that happens without the
students being physically present in
the lesson.
Modular learning is a form of distance learning that
uses Self-Learning Modules (SLM) based on the most
essential learning competencies (MELCS) provided
by DepEd. The modules include sections on
motivation and assessment that serve as a complete
guide of both teachers’ and students’ desired
competencies. Teachers will monitor the learners’
progress through home visits (following social
distancing protocols) and feedback mechanisms, and
guide those who need special attention.
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.
Parents are partners of teachers in education.
They are ‘home facilitators,’ the ‘tagapagdaloy‘
(channel), but they will not teach the subject
matter.

LEARNING TIPS
MAKE A SPACE
Create a special, personalized corner of a room
dedicated to learning, creating, and reading. Let
your kid help prepare the space for school, even
if that just means putting a decorated pencil box
next to the device they'll be using.
Getting the space ready will help them get
ready to learn.
Establish routines and expectations
You can create a visual schedule they can
follow. You can use a calendar, planner,
chalkboard, or digital organizer to keep track of
what's happening each day.
Breaks are really important, especially for kids
with learning and attention issues, so make sure
to build those in and break assignments into
smaller pieces.
Create a flexible routine and talk about
how it’s working over time.
Help students get up, get dressed and
ready to learn at a reasonable time.
Everybody make your bed! Keep normal
bedtime routines, including normal rules
for digital devices.
Adjust schedules to meet everyone’s
needs.
Know your child’s adviser or
teachers
Make sure you know your child’s teacher
so it’s easy for you to know whom you
seek for assistance if you need something.
Keep them close
When it's hard for your kid to focus, try to keep
them close. Consider setting up nonverbal or one-
word cues to help get them back on track.
Encourage self-regulation
