LEARNING DELIVERY MODALITIES COURSE 2

Module 3A: DESIGNING INSTRUCTION IN THE DIFFERENT LEARNING DELIVERY MODALITIES

Do a quick check of your knowledge of the four modalities prescribed in the LCP—face to-face
(F2F) learning, DL, blended learning (BL), and home schooling? In your own words, define each
modality. Write your own definitions in your Study Notebook.
Face-to-Face Learning – is an instructional method where course content and learning
material are taught in person to a group of students. This allows for a live interaction
between a learner and an instructor.
Distance Learning – a method of study where teachers and students do not meet in a
classroom but use the Internet, e-mail, mail, etc.
Blended Learning – (also known as hybrid learning) is a method of teaching that integrates
technology and digital media with traditional instructor-led classroom activities, giving
students more flexibility to customize their learning experiences.
Homeschooling – the education of children at home by their parents.

Consider the situation in your School/Division—your organizational capabilities, your level of

resources (infrastructure, financial, human), level of experience in DL, health and safety status,
context and capacities of your learners and their households, etc. Then rank the DL types—MDL,
ODL, TVBI, RBI, and BL—from easiest to most difficult to implement. Give the reasons for your
ranking of each. Replicate the following table and write your answers in your Study Notebook.

Read DO 42, s2016 on Policy Guidelines on Daily Lesson Preparation. As you go through the
document, write down your answers to the following questions in your Study Notebook:
1. What is Lesson Designing or Lesson Planning?
Lesson designing or lesson planning is the process of determining what learning
opportunities students in school will have by planning "the content of instruction,
selecting teaching materials, designing the learning activities and grouping methods.
2. Why is lesson designing important?
Lesson designing is imperative to ensure that time is maximized for instruction and
learning, lessons are responsive to learners' needs, teachers set learning targets for
learners, and for the teachers to carry out lessons successfully.
3. What are the three elements or components of a well-designed lesson?
A clear and articulated set of objectives or what the learners need to learn or acquire.
A well-selected and well-organized group of learning activities to ensure that the
objectives are met.

The second component of a well-designed lesson asks teachers to select and sequence teaching and
learning activities that would help learners meet the learning objectives. These learning tasks can be
presented (1) before the lesson, (2) during the lesson proper, and (3) after the lesson. In your Study
Notebook, copy the following table:

Reflection, this part of the DLL/DLP allow teachers to reflect the performance of the learners on
whether the lesson has been successfully delivered or not.

Classroom Assessment to learn about assessment. In the policy, you will find out about the two
types of assessment: formative and summative. Take note of the similarities and differences between
the two. Write your answers in a Venn diagram in your Study Notebook.

Which assessment methods can you adapt in DL considering the content area that you are teaching? In your
study notebook, recreate the following table and list five methods that you would like to try. For each one,
write how you plan to use it in DL.
Assessment Method How to Adapt the Assessment Method in DL
1. Formative Assessment in a form Formative assessment like 5-item written evaluation is included in each
of short quizzes and seat works self-learning modules. Additional activity sheets and worksheets
containing various evaluation shall also be distributed.
2. Summative Assessment At the end of the unit, written summative assessments in all learning
areas shall be given to assess the learning development of the learners in
modular distance learning.
3. Performance-Based Assessment For learning areas that are more focused on skills and practical activities,
performance tasks shall be implied. Learners may be asked to have a
vide recording of their activities at home for proper evaluation. For
learners with no capabilities of doing such, their parents/guardians shall
be asked to assess their performance at home and answer the prepared
assessment tool based on the given rubrics.

1. What assessment methods are
common among the group
members?
2. What are the challenges in doing
assessment in DL?
3. Despite the challenges, what
opportunities can you and your
colleagues explore to make
assessment doable in DL?
Formative and summative assessments are common among the groups
simply because these two are integral parts in the grading system during
this time of pandemic.
The primary challenge in cascading the above-mentioned assessment is
the honesty of the learners and parents in answering those materials.
Without the presence of the teachers and the traditional face to face
interaction, it will remain as a major challenge for the teachers and the
educational system as a whole. Another problem that is expected to
occur in this type of learning modality is the learning support system of
a child which may lead him/her to having low or poor performance
which will reflect to these assessment methods.
By attending webinars/trainings in connection to the implementation of
distance learning, we are able to learn various ways in communicating to
the learners/parents/guardians to provide instructional assistance
especially in providing assessments that may be confusing to them.
