Many students posted in the social media complaining about having heavy workloads from their classes. Many netizen students expressed that they are worn out due to the amount of requirements needed to pass. Some even say that it’s not about learning anymore, instead, it’s about passing the subjects.
Undersecretary for Curriculum and Instruction Diosdado San Antonio said in a press conference that he understands the students' concerns as he also encountered this issue in his own monitoring in Bicol Region.
Nauunawaan po natin yan. Mag-re-remind po tayo officially na kailangan yatang mag-synchronize. Meron na po kaming suggestion sa homework na hindi sabay-sabay na mayroon,
he said.
[We understand that situation. We will officially remind that it is necessary to sychronize. We already have a suggestion for homework; it shouldn't be all at the same time.]
San Antonio pointed out that the students should have enough time and a reasonable deadline to finish their activities.
He said that some activities in self-learning modules can be made optional for a certain period to avoid students suffering burnout. It is also up to the school heads and teachers to decide which activities will be made temporarily optional.
Sila na po mismo ang maga-agree kung ano iyong reasonable [workload] kasi ayaw naman natin na 'yong excitement ng mga bata na matuto ay ma-convert into burnout,
he said in a virtual press briefing.
[It's up to the teachers to agree on the reasonable workload because we wouldn't want the children's excitement to learn to be converted into a burnout.]
Kung ano lang iyong kaya ng bata, iyon lang muna ang isumite. Hindi naman ito dapat panahon na super higpit tayo,
he added.
[Let the child submit whatever they can accomplish. Now is not the time for us to be super strict.]
Reiterating an existing policy, San Antonio also told teachers to avoid giving additional schoolwork to students during the weekends.
Last week, classes in public schools resumed through distance learning approach, which was implemented as in-person classes remain prohibited due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

DepEd,huwag naman po ninyong ipasa ang lahat ng sisi sa mga kawawang guro. Bugbog at durog n durog na kami sa mga reklamo sa social media na kayo ang may kagagawan. Nag set kayo ng standard sa paggawa ng modules na sinunod lang nmin.tapos ibabalik nyo sa amin ang sisi? Para hindi kayo ang mapulaan? Naasaan ang hustisya para sa aming mga guro?? Lugmok na lugmok na nga kami, mas lalo nyo pa kaming ibinabaon.
ReplyDeleteDapat po kasi mga 20 items lang ang mga activities per subject. Sobrang pahirap naman po sa mga bata sa dami ng isusulat. May subject na 70 items pa, may essay pa dun. Kanina tinuruan ko pamangkin ko sa Filipino 2, halos madurog ang puso ko sa awa sa kanya, daming isusulat paulit ulit lang naman. May nakalagay pa, isulat lahat ng natutunan mong magagalang na salita, my God napakarami. Gaano katagal isusulat yun ng grade 2.sa school minsan nga ang evaluation natin ay oral.kaya ang bata umiiyak sa pagod at hirap. Traumatic na nga sa kanila ang pandemic nakadagdag pa ang nga modules. Kahit tayong matatanda na maiinis sa dami ng isusulat. Daig mo pa ang kumuha ng board exam.
ReplyDeleteYes, but the quantity casinos win from blackjack is still the identical, some might argue, so things aren’t that unhealthy. Factoring in inflation, although, the quantity Nevada casinos have won at blackjack has fallen by forty six %. It’s the card recreation for intellectuals, mathematicians, these who|and folks who|and these that} like a real 카지노 사이트 likelihood at beating the home. For years it was obscure, then it was in style, and now it has light. Blackjack is proof that it’s not likely the product itself that matters—it’s what clients can do with it. Pay off or acquire from these players who did not bust or surrender (ie, these players whose cash is still on the desk.) Pay off from left to proper, in the identical order because the deal.
