The suspension of conduct of face-to-face learning has shifted the Catanduanes State University (CatSU) to adapt flexible blended learning in delivering instruction and learning experiences to its students. As directed by the Commission on Higher Education, universities and colleges in the Philippines should adapt flexible blended learning. With limited training on blended learning, the CatSU faculty members are prone to some limitations and drawbacks while implementing the adapted Learning Delivery Modalities (LDMs). An investigation on the implementation of LDMs in CatSU revealed that faculty members used blended learning that is a combination of online synchronous or asynchronous classes to offline modular distance learning. The platform used by the faculty members in conducting synchronous classes were Zoom and Google Meet. On the other hand, the platform used in conducting asynchronous sessions was Google Classroom. While the adapted flexible blended learning of CatSU faculty members include online learning, a few faculty members reported that they had trouble in contacting their students since either the students don’t own mobile phones, or they don’t have phone signals at home. Some faculty members considered having not provided with internet service at school as a minor problem. Possible solutions for the different problems encountered by the faculty members have been recommended in this study.

Face To Face Learning

Each student has their own learning style which can be one of the factors that will support their success in learning. In general, learning styles are divided into: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Some students categorized as visual, and others categorized as auditory or kinesthetic. Students tend to process information more quickly if the information obtained in accordance with their style. Lecturers should know the student's learning style so they can design an instruction that suits them. This study aimed to uncover the learning styles of students of Padang State University. The study of literature used to reveal the importance of learning styles to be considered in the blended learning process, both in face-to-face learning and online learning. The research found that 57% of students have a visual learning style, 27% have auditory learning style, and the rest have a kinesthetic learning style. These results may be better used as guidelines for lecturers to design blended learning.

In March 2020, the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic forced schools in the Philippines to stop face-to-face learning activities and abruptly shift to modular approach. In practical sense, the modular approach situates Filipino students to learn in the comfort of their homes. Reading attitude is the feeling that results in the adoption or avoidance of positive reading habits. Along this line of thinking, the study was conducted to determine the effects of modular approach on the reading attitude and reading proficiency of Grade 3 learners in Mindanao State University- Integrated Laboratory School. The research employed a descriptive correlational research design. A standardized test questionnaire was used to gather data and distributed to 128 both learners and parents in Grade 3. Results divulged that majority of the respondents aged 10 years old. Majority of respondents’ parents’ educational attainment was high school graduate. Further the relationship between the learners’ profile and perceived effect of modular approach and their profile showed that the learners’ perceptions are not significantly related to their profile. However, the modular approach does not affect their reading attitude and reading proficiency. To address the modular approach problem encountered by the respondents, an Enhanced English Reading Module is hereby recommended.

This article reports on the use of blended learning in higher education. Blended learning has become popular in higher education in recent years. It is a move beyond traditional lecturing to incorporate face-to-face learning with e-learning, thereby creating a blend of learning experiences. The problem is that learning in higher education is complex and learning situations differ across contexts. Whilst there is face-to-face contact at some institutions, others offer distance learning or correspondence learning. In each context, the mode of learning may differ. The challenge is to cater for various learning opportunities through a series of learning interactions and to incorporate a blended approach. The aim of this study was to examine various ways of defining blended learning in different contexts. This was done through an examination of experiences of the use of blended learning in different higher education contexts. The study presents a case of blended learning in a postgraduate course. The experiences from all these cases are summarised and conclusions and recommendations are made in the context of blended learning in higher education in South Africa.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to assess students’ perceptions of four teaching and learning (T&L) methods used in a blended learning Contract Law course, namely, frontal, written assignments, simulations and online asynchronous T&L. Design/methodology/approach Law students (n = 417) filled in an anonymous questionnaire on their relative satisfaction with the four methods and their preferences. Participation was voluntary. The questionnaire was administered at the end of term, in class, prior to the Covid-19 restrictions. The results were calculated using Statistical Package for Social Sciences. Findings The students preferred face-to-face T&L in class and ranked online T&L last. Notably, 84% preferred blended learning combining all four methods. These results suggest that the online T&L for this Contract Law course setting was unsuccessful and that teachers should experiment with blending various T&L methods to maximize learning effectiveness and students’ satisfaction. Research limitations/implications The results only reflect one course in one year among law students, thus affecting the generalizability of the findings. This is further exacerbated by the convenience sample and the fact that only one type of blending was evaluated. Overall, the findings indicated that the survey participants were not yet ready to embrace online T&L as a primary component of blended T&L. Practical implications This study Alternative online solutions should be sought to foster social learning when face-to-face learning is not feasible for reasons, such as geographic distance, students’ disabilities or the current pandemic that prohibits social gatherings. This conclusion is particularly pertinent with respect to the impact of Covid-19 on face-to-face learning. Designers of blended learning programs should listen more carefully to students’ voices, and bear in mind that minimizing face-to-face T&L for various reasons might jeopardize students’ satisfaction, which is likely to decrease learning effectiveness. Social implications It is important that students’ perceptions be considered when building future T&L programs, especially students’ need for collaborative and social learning. Originality/value This study assessed four T&L methods administered in one course during the pre-Covid-19 era. This setting, which is rare, enabled a real-life assessment of the effectiveness of these popular methods as perceived by students.
