LEARNING?
Learning is in the form of individualized instruction that allows
learners to use self-learning modules (SLMs) in print or digital
format/electronic copy, whichever is applicable in the context of
the learner and other learning resources like Learner’s
Materials, textbooks, activity sheets, study guides and other
study materials.
Learners access electronic copies of learning materials on a
computer, tablet PC, or smartphone. CDs, DVDs, USB storage
and computer-based applications can all be used to deliver e-
learning materials, including offline E-books. The teacher takes
the responsibility of monitoring the progress of the learners. The
learners may ask assistance from the teacher via e-mail, telephone,
text message/instant messaging, etc. Where possible, the teacher
shall do home visits to learners needing remediation or assistance.
Any member of the family or other stakeholder in the community
needs to serve as para-teachers.

CHARADES
WHAT IS ONLINE DISTANCE
LEARNING?
It features the teacher facilitating learning and engaging
learners’ active participation using various technologies
accessed through the internet while they are geographically
remote from each other during instruction.
The internet is used to facilitate learner-teacher and peer-to-peer
communication. Online learning allows live synchronous
instruction. It requires participants to have good and stable internet
connection. It is more interactive than the other types of distance
learning. The responses are real time. The learners may download
materials from the internet, complete and submit assignments
online, attend webinars and virtual classes. This is practiced
effectively by using a Learning Management System or related
technologies. The DepEd Commons and LR Portal fall in this
category.
SUGGESTED PLATFORMS/RESOURCES/MECHANISMS:
The use of virtual classrooms e.g. Google Classroom, Edmodo,
Schoology
• The use of Web-Enhanced Learning Activities
• Free access to OERs (Open Educational Resources)
• Access to LR Portals
• Access to DepEd Commons
