Blended distance learning

Radio-based instructions
This offline approach oly requires printing of
modules based on the MELCs and be distributed to
the learners. It only needs printer and printing
materials funded by the school
The only risk would be the distribution that
involves physical contact to parents and
community officers. For this, following safety
protocols can ease the problem
An alternative to face to face via digital platform.
This would be a good option in teaching as you can
directly instruct students via online. But this
necessitates internet access and computer that are
costly
Can be viewed via local TV channel transmission. It
is free and accessible anytime. The only drawback
is the possible negligence of students in the
schedule of TV programs/subject
This modality is actually a promising one when it
comes in outcome of learning because it ventures
dual approaches. But having combined modalities
will entail double preparation and extra effort
Learners are usually visually inclined when it comes
in learning. Opting to do radio-based instructions
will just be boring for them
ACTIVITY 4
TARGETED INTERVENTIONS
Learner Group
Learners without parents or
household members who can guide or
support their learning at home
No access to devices and internet
Inaccessible (leaving in remote and/or
unsafe areas)
Indigenous people
Persons with disabilities
Others: (Please specify)
Targeted Intervention
● Establishing a chat support system to address possible
queries
● Regular monitoring via SMS or video call
● Video tutorial as supplementary guided instruction
● printed worksheets will be an option
● TV and radio-aided instructions
● Regular monitoring via SMS or video call
● Parents as learning facilitators
● Local partnership with the community officials governing
the indigenous people
● Crafting of materials adhering in the principle of
localization and indigenization
● Parent or guardian as learning facilitator
Technical assistance from teachers specializing in SPED and PWD
curriculum instruction
● Evaluation of different inhibiting factors prior in designing
modalities
