This study aims to:

1. to determine its opportunities for providing

pedagogically sound activities for developing speaking as well as listening fluency.

students have needs that our current delivery system is not meeting. We face
challenges that will not quickly disappear, as well as global competition. To survive
these challenges, we must find new ways to deliver education to our students.

bridge in enhancing speaking and listening skills by means of learning by doing.

Vaughan (2011) defined multimedia as a combination of digitally manipulated text,

photographs, graphic art, sound, animation, and video elements. In this context,
multimedia can be thought of as a combination of text, graphics, sound, animation and

Traditional vs. New Normal Online Classroom Set-Up: A Comparative Study of
Learning English Language

In the Philippines, there are two ways of learning; the traditional and Online Learning.
Traditional learning takes place in a classroom setting. There is a teacher who moderates and
regulates the flow of information and knowledge. Then, the teacher expects the students to
deepen their knowledge through written exercises at home. Nowadays, technology is
incorporated in the classroom more and more. However, in face-to-face instruction scenarios,
the primary source of information is still the teacher. On the other hand, Online learning is a
form of distance learning that takes place over the internet. It is interchangeable with the term e-
learning, which is accessible anywhere and anytime. Ever since the Covid-19 Pandemic arise,
the traditional way of learning changed,and as a result the online learning set-up takes place
which is called New Normal.

The purpose of this study is to determine which  method proved to be more effective when it
comes to the availability of resources in learning english language. The researchers are
exposed in this kind of set up, and because of that it is important to know and gather data to find
out which learning set up is more reliable and effective in learning English language. This study
examines and compare the academic performance of the students when it comes to traditional
and online learning. And lastly, this study could provide information about the learning method
that gives feasible outcomes in learning english language.
