DepEd on viral lecture with grammatical errors: It's just a typo

The Department of Education said the grammatically incorrect materials which aired on DepEd TV were due to a typing error and will not happen again, Secretary Leonor Briones said Thursday.Na-trace na namin anong nangyari sa dry run na 'yan. Ang material ay galing sa aming curriculum group, tapos in-input ng aming technical people. Nagkaroon ng error sa pag-transfer at sa pagkopya[Translation: We traced what happened during that dry run.

Screenshots of a supposed interactive material which aired as TV episodes ahead of the opening of the new school year on August 24, which will employ blended learning strategies to prevent coronavirus infections. One post showed a Grade 8 English lecture, which asked students to define the word"picturesque" used in the wrong context for a sentence.

Dapat nga pa impress kayo sa una. Umpisa pa Lang, sablay na!

Actually madaming teachers parang ganyan din mag english

Baka naman pagod na mga teachers na nag-encode diyan ano po deped

DepEd_PH has full of mess under the leadership of this delusional and irresponsible Briones! Its high time that this old woman must resign and just plant kamote on her backyard.

Encoding error? So walang complete staff work at vetting mga sez? 🥴

Sorry but it is grammatically incorrect

Please hire qualified people starting from the Secretary. Please please please..... Parang awa nyo na.

So no, clearly it wasn’t just a typo, it’s conceptual and linguistic. Broke elementary test writing principles. It’s appaling!

No! The sentence has multiple serious flaws: taal isn’t in tagaytay, majestic is an inappropriate word (it just erupted), sentence was just badly worded (lala ng grammar), choices are too funny (obviously, distractors were too funny (running? Perhaps?).

No no no. “Pictureswue” is an encoding error because Q and W are next to each other on a keyboard. “Picturesque” as used in that sentence is not an encoding error. It’s just bad English. Next!
