MANILA — Sometime in mid-June, Arwin Flores was contacted by one of his children’s teachers, asking if he would enroll his kids for the coming school year, which would see a change in the learning sys

tem due to the spread of the novel coronavirus disease or COVID-19.

Flores said his 3 children — who will be in grades 10, 6 and 3 when public schools start classes on August 24 — will be studying at home through printed modules provided by the school. Despite the challenges that he foresees, Flores chose to enroll his kids so they won't be idle for an entire school year.Navotas has started conducting simulations of its distance learning set-up, where schools will deliver activity sheets and school supplies to students' houses with the help of teachers and barangay officials.

Villasanta’s eldest is an incoming Grade 12 student who enrolled in a private school thanks to the Senior High School Voucher Program, a financial assistance granted by the government. The rest — who will be in grades 10, 9 and 5 when school starts — were registered in public schools. “Kung sa school... marami pa ring hindi nagse-seryoso sa pag-aaral, what more sa online learning or nasa bahay? Mas maraming mga distraction,” she said.While distance education has been around in the country for years, it’s an entirely new concept for many people, which is why it has been met with skepticism, said Melinda Bandalaria, chancellor of the University of the Philippines Open University .

For Bandalaria, quality lies in the materials that will be given to the students and the design of the learning activities.
