Quality Education, Amidst a Pandemic?

 

   

   The Department of Education (DepEd) managed to implement the "Blended Learning Method" as a new method of learning caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite this, millions of students are still able to enroll in the country this school year. But a lot of students are also unable to enroll because they do not have enough money or not ready to keep up with the new mode of study. The government chose to pursue the opening of classes without adequate equipment, preparation, and support.


 Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, we felt the learning crisis in our country. The expensive but slow internet connection that the Philippines has is still a major problem for students in the country. Is it even possible for education to have a meaningful continuation in the country, amid problems that the government has not yet solved? The pandemic stopped the normal activity of every individual in different parts of the world.


   Even before this moment, a lot of students need to overcome the terrifying barriers in accessing and navigating quality education. A lot of problems is affecting my academic. The stress and fear we students feel caused by COVID-19 is exacerbated by the opening of classes. But in this regard we continue to face physical, mental, and financial problems in the midst of a pandemic. Everyone is struggling and constantly adjusting to the new education system. 


   The government should also give consideration that not all of our students are happy with the continuation of class amid the pandemic. Sometimes the government fails to pay attention in hearing the voice of their countrymen - the little ones who quietly observe their actions. We are left hanging in doubt and fear of the rampant disease and how to prioritize our right to education.

    It's very hard for us students to adjust quickly on this new learning system. This learning system is far different on what we are used to. By the way I support your stand because it's true that other students aren't happy with what is happening right now. Our voices also needs to be heard. But we should still do our best in doing our studies even if it's difficult. God bless and keep safe.

    Hi kizza! I totally agree on what you have said. It is hard for us to adjust on this new modality, because we weren’t used to it, but we have to still do our best to learn somehow. Hoping for the sooner betterment of our country. I also like how brave you are on voicing out your opinion. Well done! Great Job!

What I feel towards President Duterte's Administration

Dear President Rodrigo Roa Duterte,   Greetings Mr. President! I am honored to give you a letter that expresses my feelings on your governance.   These past few days Mr. President, I have observed that a lot of your countrymen are disappointed and unsatisfied with your responses in battling COVID-19 pandemic. I appreciate the actions you've done during this COVID-19 pandemic but obviously, victims of COVID-19 in the Philippines is rapidly increasing and it has been months since the lockdown was implemented on different parts of the Philippines.    I understand that your position takes a lot of responsibility but may I ask Mr. President, does militarist approach helpful in battling COVID-19 pandemic? Since then Mr. President, you always rely on militarist approach in every crisis you face.    Does the closure of ABS-CBN in times of a pandemic, which is the country's largest media network as well as the so called white sand in manila bay helped in slowing dow...

        There are things we do not expect and can prevent from happening. Such as various disasters like earthquakes, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, tsunamis, wars, let us also include a pandemic and other catastrophic events that can take many lives. All we can do is prepare for it because nowadays the catastrophes are not expected by anyone. But we have to accept that this is already part of our lives and the only thing that can be done is to be prepare at all times.    Many have lost their lives, lost their loved ones, and property was damaged due to typhoon ondoy that hit the Philippines in September 2009 and followed by typhoon Yolanda in Leyte. There was also an earthquake in bohol and it will be remembered that there were wars in Zamboanga that even the inoccents were affected as well as the eruption of the Taal volcano and the pandemic that is taking place today. There are really a lot of things we don't expect like the ones mentio...
