Learning from the past

My takeaway for this week’s reading, is the role of Instructional media on teaching-learning process. One of the challenges during the pandemic-First some of the modules had typo errors which were posted on social media. Second, teacher are not prepared to conduct online teaching and n not fully trained to integrate their lesson such as zoom, google chat, etc. Most of our teachers were taught more on what to teach and not how to teach. Third, parents came unprepared on usage of different technologies and how to support their child’s learning in the absence of the teacher. Yes, the pandemic has given us a lot of opportunities on how they can further improve pedagogy of learning like the integration of mobile technology but the effectiveness was not fully assessed.

With the opening of classes on this new normal, teacher will still be using Instructional materials and integrate this to multimedia materials/technology to make the students learning more interactive and engaging. Teachers will be able to find innovate ways in using the available instructional materials they have.

Some of the students will be hesitant to go back to physical school. We need the government together with stakeholders and Instructional designer to plan and design the curriculum to ensure that the student will have the unique educational experience just like before and not to forget their safety.
