Attitude towards the online platform
Majority of the participants preferred the traditional in-class
modality. Studies such as Paechter and Maie [19] give preference to
face-to-face learning for communication purposes and Meyer [20] for
“its immediacy and energy”. From the responses of the participants, it
is attributed to the negative experiences with internet connectivity
that just like Myrel and Delight who “would wish face to face
interaction is allowed”. On the other hand, there are participants who
were thankful that despite the pandemic, “opportunities of learning
continues” as what Narivic and Joan said implying online learning as
the best alternative mode of learning during this pandemic.
“I prefer traditional in-class instruction for the reason that
I find it less expensive in terms of the internet usage and the
instruction delivery in traditional in-class is more informative and
elaborate clearly.”-P8
“The zoom is friendly, audio are clear, videos are interesting,
over-all educational environment is very good.”-P2“It is worthy of my time because I can say that I am still
learning during pandemic that doesn’t only limit here in school or my
country.” – P11
