problem that they are encountered in the new system. The result of this study through the virtual
learning the teacher and student have a deep discussion because here they are free to ask
questions about things they do not understand in their module and through this they also gain a
deep understanding of the lesson. The result on this study based on the effect on the new learning
modalities to their study habit is losing of interest in doing their activities. The challenges that
they experienced in the new learning modalities, they can’t manage their time doing their
activities and home duties. To all the challenges that they experienced through the new learning
modalities, they overcome it by motivating their self and with the help of teachers and friends.
New learning Modalities are making sure they keep up in the lesson and ensure that they cannot
be left behind.
A. Introduction
"It's now patently obvious that schools should have had more comprehensive disaster-
preparation procedures and controls in the case of campus disruptions." However, because many
colleges did not have such preparations in place, I believe that online learning is poised to gain a

because of pandemic. When the COVID-19 virus surfaced, traditional educational techniques
were supplanted with e-learning since social gatherings at educational institutions were seen as a
potential for the virus to spread. Despite the limitations and studies that show that students are
less likely to gain from this sort of education, e-learning is the best alternative available to ensure
that diseases do not spread since it ensures geographical distance (Lizcano et al. (2020). The

implementing plans and procedures on how to contain the virus, and the infections are still

considerably. From individual online courses in the mid-1990s to today's complete online degree
and certificate programs, practically all students engaging in online learning chose the online
format. These students, who are older than standard college students, value convenience,
flexibility, and the possibility to work while studying. (Levitz, 2016). Asynchronous elements of
a course are also more valuable to these pupils than synchronous elements. Students who choose
to take classes in person, on the other hand, place a higher value on face-to-face education and
social interaction, and they are significantly younger. This raises the question of whether
students who prefer in-person learning but are compelled to learn online will choose
result. If problems cause the learning process to be slowed or stopped, understanding will not be
achieved. An effective learning plan will address these issues, resulting in learning that is
tailored to the needs of the learner. As a result of inadequate approaches, techniques, and tactics
with the learners, the mismatch will deepen. Recognizing the learner's style and preferred
learning modes is key to effective teaching and student learning. Each student has his or her
unique learning preferences and style. Some people identify their primary learning style, while
others use a variety of learning styles depending on the situation. It stands with Kolb's learning
style theory, which states that people are born with a predilection for one learning style over
another. Students have multiple "preferred learning modes," or ways of processing information,
according to this approach. Visual, Auditory, Reading/Writing Choice, and Kinesthetic learning
methods are abbreviated as VARK. This survey was conducted during the first semester of the
modalities and learning styles (visual, auditory, read/write, and kinesthetic). The students
completed a customized questionnaire based on Fleming's VARK Learning Styles and preferred
Furthermore, because the virus continues to spread around the world, face-to-face
communication is prohibited. Despite the fact that the New Normal comes with financial
constraints, teachers and students must adapt to its responsibilities. School administrators must
offer the essential equipment for teachers to deliver high-quality instruction in a timely and
effective manner
A pandemic is not a new event encountered in the history of humanity because mankind
has faced various pandemic in history. However, the covid-19 corona virus outbreak has affected
population across the world. Although online education provides an opportunity for self-study,
the main challenge that online education faces in BEED student is how to give practical lessons.

With novel educational technology, the lack of access to educational technologies and
innovations (also known as the digital divide) continues to be an issue (Fairlie 2004; Jones et al.
2009). One of the promises of online technologies is that they can expand access to
experiences to people who might not otherwise have access to on-campus higher education.
According to a 2010 survey from the United States, students from disadvantaged socioeconomic
backgrounds are less likely to pursue higher degrees of postsecondary education (Aud et al.
2010). However, millions of people now have access to education thanks to the growing
availability of remote education (Lewis and Parsad 2008; Allen et al. 2016). Furthermore, in
recent years, a focus on open educational resources (OER) has resulted in significant cost
savings without compromising student performance outcomes (Robinson et al. 2014; Fischer et
Unfortunately, access gains may not be felt equally by all demographic groups. Even
after controlling for academic readiness, socioeconomic level (SES), citizenship, and English as
a second language (ESL) status, Hispanic and Black STEM majors were much less likely to take
online courses, according to a 2015 study (Wladis et al. 2015). Also, whether the greater access
communities has been questioned. All ethnic minorities (excluding Asian/Pacific Islanders)
completed distance education courses at a lower rate than the ethnic majority, according to a
education courses finished degrees at a considerably lower rate than those who did not take
distance education courses, according to Shea and Bidjerano (2014, 2016). In contrast, a research
of K-12 online learning success determinants discovered that just 1 out of 15 courses had
substantial differences in student test scores for racial minorities (Liu and Cavanaugh 2011).
More study is needed to examine access and success rates for various demographics when
learning in various modalities, such as entirely online and hybrid learning environments.
The present COVID-19 pandemic has brought extraordinary challenges and has affected
the educational sectors, and no one knows when it will end. Every country is presently
implementing plans and procedures on how to contain the virus, and the infections are still
continually rising. In the educational context, to sustain and provide quality education despite
lockdown and community quarantine, the new normal should be taken into consideration in the
planning and implementation of the “new normal educational policy”. This article presents
opportunities for responding issues, problems and trends that are currently arising and will arise
in the future due to COVID-19 pandemic through the lens of education in the Philippines-the
Hybrid learning
Half of the students in a class are expected to attend class, while the other half will follow
the class from home, partially online and partially face-to-face (Bao, 2020). In higher education,
the use of hybrid-flexible (HyFlex) instructional approaches is relatively new (Beatty, 2019). The
studies. Efforts to incorporate this methodology have been made in the past, but few studies have
reported on the impact on student learning and related metrics of interest, such as qualifications,
retention, pass rate, and time to graduation (Dikilitaş, 2020). In Spanish universities that used
this methodology, groups of face-to-face students and online students alternated from September
2020 to achieve social distance without having to change the classroom structure.
Mirror room
With the rising prevalence of COVID-19, one of the options used in Spanish university
education was the use of "Mirror Rooms," which allow face-to-face classes but at a safe distance
of at least 1.5 meters between the chairs. The group of students is divided into two subgroups to
maintain the safety distance measures in the case of insufficient classroom space. Half of the
group is in a classroom with the teacher, while the other half is watching the class through live
videoconference from another classroom. This typology has an advantage over hybrid education,
in which half of the students attend class from home, or blended education, in which face-to-face
instruction is alternated with online instruction. The advantage of this typology over hybrid
education, in which half of the students attend class from home, or blended education, in which
face-to-face education is alternated with online teaching, is that students in Mirror Rooms do not
rely on their resources or internet connections at home, because the entire process, including the
online portion, takes place in the educational center. They can continue to have contact with
peers and a University environment because they have their classmates in class for support and
The disadvantages of this strategy include the need for a sufficient number of classrooms,
as well as the technological resources required to broadcast the lesson live and employees to
control the mirror classrooms. Another downside is that students will have no direct interaction
with the lecturer, who will be in another classroom, which is similar to the situation with
asynchronous online classrooms. This practice may be feasible in university studies, but not so
much in lower educational stages, when pupils will find it difficult to sit alone in a class and pay
attention.
individually or in groups, the tasks that were started in person in class. Splitting students into
groups and having them take turns going to class is one variation of this strategy. In the semi-
present environment, students alternate online activities with face-to-face encounters, according
to a study by Cândido (Cândido 2020). This means that each topic will have fewer contact hours,
which will be offset by work from home. For example, if we work on projects, students can
participate in class while staying at home if they are unable to attend in person.
Another novel way to blended learning education offered in this study is what we've
dubbed the "Online guide classroom," which has been made possible by the pandemic's new
reality. A person who has been in touch with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19
should undergo a contagious disease test and stay at home until the results are known. Teachers
in this position, who have no medical symptoms and are well, have noted how their teaching has
been disrupted, which is harmful to their kids. In an Online guide classroom, the teacher teaches
using a computer from home or another location, while the students physically travel to the
campus to participate in the video conference. The advantage of this kind of instruction is that
pupils will not miss class if the instructor is in quarantine and may have been exposed to
COVID-19, or if the teacher is unable to attend a class for other reasons, such as assisting a
Congress in another country. Students will also be able to continue to enjoy University life and
work on group projects with their classmates in person. This option is especially important for
scientific students who are required to work in laboratories as part of their coursework (Anderton
2021). To project the videoconference, the classroom will need to meet certain technical
requirements, such as microphones and cameras built into the room, i.e., the same hybrid-
learning technical resources that prior research suggests (Salikhova 2020), as well as staff or
E-learning tools have played a crucial role during this pandemic, helping schools and
universities facilitate student learning during the closure of universities and schools (Subedi et
al., 2020). While adapting to the new changes, staff and student readiness needs to be gauged and
supported accordingly. The learners with a fixed mindset find it difficult to adapt and adjust,
whereas the learners with a growth mindset quickly adapt to a new learning environment. There
is no one-size-fits-all pedagogy for online learning. There are a variety of subjects with varying
needs. Different subjects and age groups require different approaches to online learning (Doucet
et al., 2020). Online learning also allows physically challenged students with more freedom to
participate in learning in the virtual environment, requiring limited movement (Basilaia &
Kvavadze, 2020).
Faculty sought help from colleagues with previous experience teaching online, looking
for evidence for what worked in their discipline. They were inspired by examples for creative
arts and music, where Zoom rehearsals and performances produced remarkable and life-changing
events. Some discovered open education resources, materials, labs, videos, simulations, games,
that helped them find new ways of engaging their online learners. Some truly innovative design
ideas emerged, such a course on COVID-19 in which a different “angle” (epidemiology,
economics, psychology, virology, politics) became the focus for each week taught by a faculty
policy are all problems with e-learning (Murgatrotd, 2020). Many countries face significant
challenges in terms of maintaining a stable Internet connection and gaining access to digital
gadgets. While many economically disadvantaged students in developing nations cannot afford
online learning gadgets, online education increases the learner's exposure to screen time. As a
result, offline activities and self-exploratory learning have become critical for pupils. Because
both parents work, there is a lack of parental direction, especially for young learners. There are
practical concerns about physical workspaces that are conducive to various learning styles.
Inherently motivated learners are largely unaffected in their learning since they require little
supervision and assistance, but pupils who are deficient in learning have challenges. Some
academically qualified students from low-income families are unable to access or afford online
instruction. Due to reduced contact hours for learners and a lack of communication with teachers
classes held for both year-end and internal examinations (Sintema, 2020).
Aside from being enjoyable for the children, school time helps them develop social skills
and awareness. While kids are away from their regular school schedule, they face economic,
social, and psychological consequences. Many of these students are now taking online classes
and spending more time on virtual platforms, putting them at risk of online exploitation. School
time helps youngsters acquire social skills and awareness, in addition to being pleasurable.
Children endure economic, social, and psychological implications when they are absent from
their usual school schedule. Many of these kids are now attending online classes and spending
more time on virtual platforms, potentially exposing them to online exploitation. In addition to
poor Internet connectivity, the majority of pupils do not have access to smartphones or television
at home. Due to the closure of businesses and offices, a large portion of the population has no or
little income. The data package (costs) are rather high in comparison to average earnings, and
maintaining continuous Internet access is a costly business for farmers. Most students prefer
have complained that the face-to-face online class requires more data packages. It's challenging
to create a system that meets all kids' learning demands while also being convenient.
Although there have been numerous problems for educators, schools, institutes, and the
government in regards to online education, the COVID-19 epidemic has created multiple
chances for those who are unprepared or have long-term intentions to deploy an e-learning
system. It has brought teachers and parents closer together than ever before. Homeschooling
necessitates parents' academic and financial support for their children's education. During these
continuing crises, children with disabilities require extra and unique assistance. For the first time
ever, online platforms such as Google Classroom, Zoom, virtual learning environments, social
media, and other group forums such as Telegram, Messenger, WhatsApp, and WeChat are
studied and tried for teaching and learning. Even after face-to-face teaching resumes, this can be
explored further, and these platforms can provide extra materials and coaching to learners. On a
local level, teachers are actively collaborating with one another to develop online teaching
approaches. As instructors, parents, and children have similar experiences, there are unparalleled
potential for collaboration, creative solutions, and openness to learn from others and try new
techniques (Doucet et al., 2020). Online learning has allowed teachers and students to teach and
learn in new ways that are not possible in a traditional classroom setting.
Most educational systems across the world have migrated to remote learning modality as
a measure against the spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). This phenomenon is
causing a lot of difficulties especially as voiced out by students in the context of developing
countries. This paper attempts to describe the difficulties in remote learning of university
students in the Philippines in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis. Following a mainly qualitative
research design, this study surveyed a pool of purposively and conveniently selected students
currently enrolled in a tertiary institution. The result of the content analysis revealed the
learning resources; electric power interruptions; vague learning contents; overloaded lesson
activities; limited teacher scaffolds; poor peer communication; conflict with home
compromises; and mental health struggles. Based on the result, cogent recommendations are

On the other hand, Donald and Marvin (2020) investigated the effectiveness of a series of
self -instructional modules (SIMS) for training secondary level social studies teacher trainees to
develop and ask higher level questions. The study showed that SIMS is superior to Conventional

various forms (Lightner and Lightner-Laws, 2016; Nuruzzaman, 2016; Heilporn et al., 2021).
There is no unanimity of criteria, since the meaning is ambiguous, causing confusion, and gives
rise to a certain lack of rigor between the different types of blended learning (Misseyanni et al.,
2018; Bao, 2020). It is necessary to distinguish between hybrid teaching, mirror classrooms,
blended teaching, and the new methodology proposed in this study, i.e., online guides in the
classroom.
Time management
A person who is good at managing their time can live a calm, stress-free life. This is so
that the person doesn't feel worn out at the end of the day. Time management focuses on splitting
the required time for each activity. Thus, time management that works raises quality of life.
Thus, it is crucial for pupils in higher secondary schools to understand time management. As a
result, the investigator chose this subject for inquiry (Cyril, 2014).
However, according to Mercanlioglu (2010), academic success was higher among
students who adopted time-saving strategies. Students who did not employ time-saving strategies
in their academic work performed worse. academically. Procrastination, socialising, and setting
priorities are three When outlining the framework, some time management researchers take into
account several factors that could affect how well pupils perform. Students experience problems
like hating their tasks and uncertainty as a result of their inability to arrange things, therefore
they put off their responsibilities. As a result, they will find it difficult to manage the chores that
come after their procrastinating and distracting priorities (Mohamed, Hamal, and Mohamed
2016). According to Sayari, Jalagat, and Dalluay (2017), priority is a strong predictor of students'
According to Rai (2016), students who obtain lower results often do so because they struggle
with time management during exams rather than because they are less capable than their peers.
Learning in the new normal is a challenge for teachers, students, and even parents,
according to Van Briesen (2010). Self-directed learning is an individual attitude that incorporates
initiatives and responsibility to learn, select, manage, and assess self-learning activity,
motivation and interest, freedom in setting goals, and more. DepEd announced that they are
prepared to start lessons in October for the school year 2020 to 2021 through blended learning
methods after delaying the start of online classes on August 24. TanhuecoTumapon (2020)
asserts that schools and universities must uphold their commitment to providing high-quality
education while implementing the new normal of blended learning. According to Magsambol
(2020), there is a clear disparity between those who can afford the resources to use the new
education platform and those who cannot. With the DepEd's slogan, "no child left behind," the
general state of students in the public school system sends a message of inequity. However,
education cannot be prioritized over sustaining the economy. The internet's uneven accessibility
would ideally be overcome by blended learning while closely adhering to the social and personal
quarantine rules.
A platform for creating a forum for interaction between students and teachers as well as
between students is provided by learning management systems, which give teachers and students
a powerful set of tools to create and manage courses, course content, and course materials, track
student attendance and performance through tests, and administer quizzes, assignments, and
universities, colleges, K–12 institutions, and even individual educators. However, a number of
constraints, including the availability of laptops and other devices for getting online, internet
resources, staff and student online readiness, and other considerations make it difficult to

affective components that must be addressed if an authentic involvement is desired. This can be
done by integrating cutting-edge technologies and tools to improve the learning activities in
courses that are being offered. Many students in this digital age are already accustomed to using
these tools, so doing so will make them more willing to participate and collaborate with others in
these e-activities, which will support a constructivist approach (Hoic-Bozic et al. 2016;
Cummings et al. 2017). This specific study on students' learning outcomes and experiences with
blended learning supports the growing global trend of using blended learning as a successful
content delivery strategy in higher education. The delivery of this method may include one or
any combination of modes to supplement the in-person tutorials, such as using social media,
gamified problem-solving, video conferencing with each other or with industry participants, role-
playing exercises, virtual learning systems, online interactive quizzes or challenges, or any of the
numerous simulations available online (Hamilton and Tee 2010). Individuals must decide what
to learn, how to judge their achievement, and which methods or materials to employ as part of
this process. It also involves setting goals, locating pertinent information, and assessing the
outcomes. Therefore, it would be logical to assume that self-directed learning is associated with
taking ownership of one's education. According to Van Briesen (2010), self-directed learning is
an individual attitude that includes taking initiative and responsibility for learning, choosing,
managing, and evaluating one's own learning activities, being motivated and interested, being
free to set goals, and choosing the right learning materials. Grow (McCauley and McClelland,
2004) denotes self-directed behavior and is challenging to define as a single idea because it
makes efforts to identify learning requirements, create learning goals, locate learning resources,
choose and use learning strategies, and assess learning outcomes, according to Knowles (in

years now, the administrators of these tertiary institutions in Nigeria have Schools have made
significant investments in setting up internet services in their classrooms. The offerings given by
the internet have had a significant impact on organizations, the university setting, and strategies
for instructing and learning. Worldwide, the Internet has increased the use of computers
intertwined. Emeka and Nyeche (2016) claim that the internet is a global organization whose
nature cannot be defined simply or readily. Consequently, these shortcomings have a variety of
effects on academics' awareness, experiences, and attitudes with regard to e-learning. The lack of
significant support and help from the technical department is cited as a major barrier to the
effective and efficient use of e-learning facilities in various HEIs in a recent account by Makgato
(2014). According to these writers, academics in HEIs from Africa have systemic difficulties and
lack the necessary abilities for the implementation and integration of e-learning. Additionally,
many African HEIs lack e-learning policies and adequate resources. Providing academics with
technical and administrative support for the establishment and usage of e-learning facilities (Sife
et al., 2007).
Environment Distraction
Two research looked at whether distraction from the surroundings (mostly noise) might lead
people to make snap judgments about other people. In the initial study, it was discovered that
while under distraction, individuals' assessments of a target person tended to be more intense
while also changing over the course of multiple questionnaire administrations. This pattern of
judgments was unaffected by the prospect of potential interaction with the target individual in the
future. These results were confirmed in a subsequent investigation, which ruled out a number of
alternative artifactual explanations for the initial study's findings. The experiments' findings are
examined in relation to several hypotheses of environmental influences, although they looked
most compatible with the notion that noise and distraction prevent people from integrating
information. (Judith M Siegel, Claude M Steele,1980). Understanding distraction and its effects
on the user could be a breakthrough in understanding the mechanism of the weak flow-
performance link and in optimizing VR solutions. Consequently, it is crucial to make use of the
research on distraction and focused attention (Bian et al. 2020). According to Huang et al.,
selective attention is the capacity to promote processing one source of environmental data while
reducing processing from other sources (Huang-Pollock et al. 2005).Following it, Michotte
(2017) develops perception as a stage of the whole action process that enables us to modify our
actions to the environment in which we live. In this case, the students' perspective might be
characterized as their formed opinion following a specific event that requires modification.
Therefore, the focus of this research is on how students perceive an online learning environment
accessibility, materials, and assignment delivery. These elements are essential to bringing the
pupils'
The needs of this research require a more contextualized understanding of online learning.
Unending Process
Although prior literature (Arthur-Nyarko & Kariuki, 2019; Bagarukayo & Kalema, 2015; Hamid
et al., 2009) has increased our understanding of students' e-learning experiences, there are still
many knowledge gaps among academics, particularly in the context of South Africa. According
to Marimo et al. (2013), the key variables influencing academics' adoption and usage of e-
learning platforms for academic education are their behavioral goals, attitudes, and perceptions.
In other words, Marimo et al. (2013) think that academics' behavioural intentions, attitudes, and
perceptions may have an impact on how they experience the implementation, use, and uptake of
e-learning platforms. Regardless of the academics' opinions or perceptions about e-learning, they
must have the necessary technical assistance and training to operate the LMS because these are
al., 2008). The level of the technological assistance and training that academics at HEIs received
in terms of integrating and using ICT as a tool for e-learning, however, has unfortunately been
exposed by Sife et al. (2007). According to these writers, academics in HEIs from Africa have
systemic difficulties and lack the necessary abilities for the implementation and integration of e-
learning. In addition, many African HEIs lack e-learning policies and provide insufficient
technical and administrative assistance to academics for the deployment and use of e-learning
resources (Sife et al., 2007). Sadly, these shortcomings have a variety of effects on academics'
awareness, experiences, and attitudes with regard to e-learning. The lack of significant support
and help from the technical department is cited as a major barrier to the effective and efficient
Self-Motivation
According to Aparicio, Bacao, and Oliveira, T. (2016) separate online learning into two key
areas: learning and technology. Whereas learning is the cognitive process for achieving
knowledge, and technology is the tool to support that process, technology is used to deliver the
breadth of online learning. When it comes to the actual usage of technology, Ryan in Smart and
Cappel (2006) state that there are many different ways to use it, such as synchronous interactive
settings, asynchronous interactive sessions, or self-paced independent study units. The adoption

students' opinions of online learning and instructional technologies reveals that students do not
believe that technology's drawbacks are inherently bad. Although few research are available, it's
possible that implementing online learning in rural locations would present more challenges than
it first appears. This study will close the knowledge gap, particularly on the application of
technology.
Loss of Interest
It could be difficult to assure student proficiency as a result of the change to a virtual learning
environment (Deery, 2020; Spanemberg et al., 2020). According to Hidi and Harackiewicz, the
majority of interest theorists agree that interest is a phenomena that develops through people's
interactions with their surroundings (2000, p.152). Personal interest, according to Hidi &
Harackiewicz (2000) and Hidi & Renniger (2006), arises from an innate drive to comprehend
particular themes or topics and is typically correlated with high levels of knowledge and value,
pleasant feelings, and higher reference value (Krapp, Hidi & Renninger, 1992). It is also stated to
develop gradually and to have a tendency to last a long time. As a result, it continues to play a
consistent and lasting role in learning over a lengthy period of time. Consequently, a learner's

Instrumentation, data gathering procedure, and data analysis used in the conduct of the study.
Research Design
`The researcher used the descriptive qualitative method. A qualitative descriptive design
may be deemed most appropriate as it recognizes the subjective nature of the problem, the
different experiences participants have and will present the findings in a way that directly reflects
or closely resembles the terminology used in the initial research question (Bradshaw et al.,

Task Force (IATF) particularly the prohibitions on face to face, social distancing and mass
gathering. Hence, Open-ended questions will be given as individual interview to the potential
participants of the study. Queries or clarifications, affirmations and other concerns of both the
researcher and the respondents will be initiated with the same modality.
Data Analysis
The goal of qualitative data analysis is to make sense of the voluminous, varied, and
usually non-numeric data that accumulates during an investigation. In what we generate as data,
we look for insight, meaning, understanding, and wider patterns of knowledge, intent, and
behavior. Thorne (2008) describes the analytic process as moving “from pieces to patterns”
through the activities of organizing, reading and reviewing mindfully, coding, reflection,

researchers want to collect richer information and get more detailed picture of issues, cases or
events. They want to explore the why and how of a situation, not only what, where, when.
Qualitative research, like any scientific research, is a method for finding answers to questions
and gathering data. Qualitative researchers collect data using a variety of methodologies,
including in-depth qualitative interviews, participant and non-participant observation, field notes,
focus groups, document analysis, and a variety of other methods. To collect and evaluate
Three ethical issues were considered in this study. These included informed consent, the
confidentiality of information given, and the researcher’s roles and responsibilities. Informed
consent was vital to establishing trust and confidence between the researchers and the
participants. The authors explained well the nature of the study and the expectations associated
with their participation. Part of this ethical duty is to ensure that the young people’s participation
in the study was purely voluntary. The use of force, coercion, and intimidation was never
employed as these are manifestations of gross disrespect to the fundamental rights of others.
Likewise, consent from the participants was obtained prior to the study. In the absence of
an established research ethics review board of the campus at the time of the study, the authors
took the initiative to observe all ethical principles in conducting empirical studies. As such, they
were strictly guided by the three universally accepted ethical principles: respect for persons,
beneficence, and justice. To comply with these principles, research participants were oriented
with the utmost respect and without deception as to the scope of the information to be obtained.
Also, the consent form was an integral part of the orientation before any data collection
procedure was carried out. The confidentiality of information provided by the participants was
taken seriously. Pseudonyms were used to protect the identity of the participants. No names of
persons, places, and events were used without the permission of the participants. The author
recognized that it was their role to protect the participants from any physical, emotional, or
psychological harm.
The respondent were given the chance to discontinue if they feel uncomfortable with the
research process. Prior to the trial, the subjects' agreement was also acquired. The authors took
the initiative to follow all ethical guidelines in performing empirical investigations because there
was no formal research ethics review board on campus at the time of the study. As a result, the
three internationally acknowledged ethical values of respect for others, beneficence, and justice
were scrupulously followed. To adhere to these criteria, research participants were informed
about the scope of the information to be acquired with the utmost respect and without deception.
In addition, before any data collection operation was carried out, the consent form was an
inherent element of the orientation. The privacy of the information submitted by the participants
was respected. To obscure the participants' identities, pseudonyms were utilized. Without the
participants' agreement, no names of people, places, or events were utilized. It was the author's
responsibility to protect the participants from any physical, emotional, or psychological harm.
If the respondents were uncomfortable with the research process, they were offered the
option to stop.

A. Module
Based on the first theme, BEED students are struggling on how they going to answer
their modules.
In this kind of new learning system, BEED students are practicing on how to study by their own.
According to respondent 2 “Para sa akin medyo mahirap dahil self- learning ito at minsa ay
ay mahirap sapagkat hindi 24 oras ang nakaantabay sayo yung instructor mo, parang self-
B. E-ARAL
Unending Process
E-Aral is a tool that is hard to use because of its many procedures, and one of the BEED
student’s problem.
According to respondent 4 “Ang naging karanasan ko sa E-Aral ay mahirap dahil bago ito
According to respondent 5 “ Sa E-Aral po, para sa akin mahirap kasi madaming proseso bago mo
maaccess”.
According to respondent 12 “Mahirap dahil sa marami pang proseso hindi siya madaling
gawin”.
Down System
As a result, this new learning system is not really good interms of connections, proven by the
respondent.
According to respondent 2 “Para naman po sa akin ang E-Aral ay problema dahil minsan ay
nag dodown ang system kaya hindi nakakasagot ng maayos”. ( For me, E-Aral is a problem
According to respondent 3 “ Sa E-Aral ayon sa experience ko ito ay mahirap dahil palaging nag
experience it is difficult because there is always mataintenance so other activities are delayed).
According to respondent 14 “Ang karanasan ko sa pag gamit ng E-Aral ay lagi itong down
system kaya minsan hindi on time naipapass ang aking mga files”. ( My experience in using E-
Aral is that, it is always down system so sometimes my files are not passed on time).
C. Virtual Learning
Based on the result some BEED students are not capable to fit with this learning system
because of the unstable of internet connection. Prove by the response of the respondent.

connection).
According to respondent 16 “When it comes to virtual learning, I find it hard to be fit with the
new trend for the reason that we don’t have stable internet connection”.
Environment Distraction
Some BEED students are also distracted to answer some question and can’t clarify the

Students believe that they can get some clarification to their questions that bothered them in
guro”.( All the lesson are better understood because the teacher can be told and asked
questions).
According to respondent 12 “Maganda dahil mas maiinrindihan natin ng husto ang isang topic

sisimulan tapos isabay pa ang mga gawain sa bahay”. ( It’s boring because I don’t know where
and how to start and then add other household chores at the same time).
3.What are the challenges you experience in the new learning modalities
Time Management
The result says that some of BEED students are facing difficulties to manage their time.
Proved by the response of the respondent. Students experience problems like hating their tasks
and uncertainty as a result of their inability to arrange things, therefore they put off their
responsibilities. As a result, they will find it difficult to manage the chores that come after their
procrastinating and distracting priorities (Mohamed, Hamal, and Mohamed 2016). According to

limited yung communication sa instructors so typicaly talaga self-studies tapos kailangan with
quality yung output dapat isubmit yun nga lang nakukulangan ako sa palugit kahit nabigyan
tayo ng 1year na palugit considering nga na self-study so kulang na hindi mo maibigay yung

Conclusions
Based from the responses that we gathered and discussed by the researchers, the result of this
study based on their experience in answering the module they are facing some difficulties
because they need to learned by their own and need some clarifications, and also the experienced
of BEED students in terms of E-Aral, they can’t focus to do their task on time because of the
problem such as unending process and down system that they encountered in the new platform of
learning , the result of this study through the virtual learning the teacher and student have a deep
discussion because here they are free to ask questions about things they do not understand in
their module and through this they also gain a deep understanding of the lesson, the result on
this study based on the effect on the new learning modalities to their study habit is losing of
interest in doing their activities, the challenges that they experienced in the new learning
modalities, they can’t manage their time doing their activities and home duties, to all the
challenges that they experienced through the new learning modalities, they overcome it by
motivating their self and with the help of teachers and friends. New learning Modalities are
making sure they keep up in the lesson and ensure that they cannot be left behind.
Recommendations
Based from the findings of the study, the following are recommended:
Students. Students needs to make a schedule to do their activities and home duties so that
Parents. To the parents of students, their child should be given enough time and time to
focus on learning. They just need to understand that they need enough time to
