Luzon calamity compounds challenges of distance learning

“My sons will have to temporarily stop their studies. Their modules were destroyed and covered with mud … They can no longer read anything there,” Ner said. But Diosdado San Antonio, the education undersecretary for curriculum and instruction, stressed that the DepEd had already authorized school officials to lessen the stress and anxiety of learners by making some activities in modules optional.
