ABSTRACT

— With the sudden surge of the pandemic, every sector of the government was greatly affected. This includes the educational system, which is under the Department of Education. The changes brought about by COVID 19 had a significant impact on the students. This study assessed the parents’ perception of modular distance learning amidst COVID-19 at Osmeña Colleges. Utilizing a descriptive design, the study employed the one way analysis (ANOVA) to analyze the significant difference of the parents’ perception about modular distance learning. A two-part questionnaire was used to gather data, including respondents’ profiles and perceptions. Data were collected through convenience sampling and analyzed using a 5-point Likert scale, with frequency counts, percentages, and weighted means used to interpret the overall perceptions of the parents. The results indicated that parents’ perception of modular distance learning does not have a significant difference in the parents’ perception of modular distance learning. The study concludes with recommendations to determine the perceptions of parents about modular distance learning amidst COVID 19 from the other parents from other grade levels. It also suggests that perceptions of other stakeholders such as the school managers, or DepEd personnel should be assessed to balance the perceptions of the parents, and continuing research be conducted to evaluate the impact and output of the curriculum in new normal.
