External Contributory Factors Affecting The Impacts Of Online Distance Learning On The Development Of Macro Skills Among Grade 8 Students
Keywords:
Learning Modality, Macro Skills, Online Distance Learning, Modular Distance LearningAbstract
Background: In terms of how learning is made to happen without face-to-face interaction, the two distance learning modalities-online and modular-are different. Online platforms like Google Meet and Zoom are used for video calls during Online Distance Learning (ODL), which combines teaching and learning. The study was decided upon by the researchers in the hopes of assisting schools, particularly teachers, in bettering the development of macro skills among students by offering appropriate activities aligned with their learning preferences and styles without compromising the standards and competencies set forth by DepEd and MELCs. Methods: In this quantitative study, the effects of new normal learning modalities on the development of macro skills were evaluated, described, and differentiated using survey questionnaires and interviews as data
gathering instruments. Data collected through the descriptive-comparative survey approach was incorporated utilising concurrent nested design to support the data collected through multivariate analysis as the quantitative procedure.
Result: If given all the resources needed to qualify any modality, 100% of the ODL students would still choose ODL. The presence of MKO who’d give those supplements to the lessons and who’d be there to assess and monitor them, as well as the wider opportunities given in ODL where they could practice their productive skills justified their decision.
Conclusion: The teacher’s competence in lesson content, planning and delivery affect the development of macro skills among ODL students. Parents’ support affects ODL students’ mental and emotional health.
