CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
INTRODUCTION
The COVID-19 pandemic is first and foremost a health crisis. Many countries have
(rightly) decided to close schools, colleges and universities. The crisis crystallizes the
dilemma policymakers are facing between closing schools (reducing contact and saving
lives) and keeping them open (allowing workers to work and maintaining the economy).
The severe short-term disruption is felt by many families around the world: home
schooling is not only a massive shock to parents’ productivity, but also to children’s social
life and learning. Teaching is moving online, on an untested and unprecedented scale.
Student assessments are also moving online, with a lot of trial and error and uncertainty
for everyone. Many assessments have simply been cancelled. Importantly, these
interruptions will not just be a short-term issue, but can also have long-term consequences
for the affected cohorts and are likely to increase inequality.
Higher education institutions (HEIs), both public and private, have also had to adjust to
the new situation where face-to-face interaction and mass gatherings are prohibited.
Committed to their mandate, the leading universities and colleges in the Philippines,
particularly those affiliated with the ASEAN University Network – such as the University
of the Philippines, Ateneo de Manila University and De la Salle University, found
innovative ways to fulfil their three-pronged tasks of education, research and service.
Everyone, from the operations and support service units, to administrators and teachers,
adjusted to work-from-home arrangements.
From the confines of their homes, teachers and administrators were put to the task
of revising and adapting course syllabi and requirements as they shifted to alternative or
remote teaching modalities, both synchronous and asynchronous. Where students and
8400, Surigao City
teachers had access to electronic devices and reliable Internet connections, learning
managements systems such as Canvas, Moodle, Blackboard, and applications like Google
Hangouts, Zoom and Skype, were used. But where students had limited access to
computers or unreliable access to the Internet, teachers and students used smartphones to
exchange messages, notes and materials, through text messaging, e-mail, Facebook
Messenger, and Twitter.
In some instances, these arrangements became unsustainable and some universities

had to suspend remote or online classes because the uneven socioeconomic status of
students affected their access to these modalities of learning. Also, concerns regarding the
mental health of both students and teachers affected by the uncertainty, became another
reason to suspend online classes.
Framework of the Study
The conceptual framework of the study shows the interplay of the variables being
able investigated. Figure 1, the schematic model shows the independent and dependent
variable of the study in two separated boxes. The independent variable in the left box
which is the COVID-19 pandemic and the dependent variable in the right box which is the

Scope and Limitation of the Study
This study aims to know the impact of COVID-19 pandemic to Philippine

Education System as well as to the students' academic performance. It is conducted at
Northeastern Mindanao Colleges Campus, Surigao City during this semester and no face-
to-face interviews happened in data gathering. Hence the data gathered were from
Philippine news TV and internet.
Definition of Terms
To facilitate better understanding of the study, the following terms were defined
conceptually and operationally.
Academic performance. The measurement of student achievement across various
academic subjects.
COVID-19. A disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus. 'CO' stands for corona, 'VI'
for virus, and 'D' for disease. Formerly, this disease was referred to as '2019 novel
coronavirus' or '2019-nCoV.'
Education System. Refers to the economic and social factors that typically make up
public schools at the federal, state or community levels. Such factors include public
funding, school facilities, staffing, compensation, employee benefits, teaching resources
and more.
Flexible learning. Astate of being in which learning and teaching is increasingly freed
from the limitations of the time, place and pace of study.
Pandemic. (of a disease) prevalent over a whole country or the world.

CHAPTER 2
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
This section provides the concepts, and writings which are relevant to the present
study. Cited literatures and studies are synthesized to provide insights, and established
relationships, between and among the phenomena under observation.
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 lockd,own and community quarantine, the new normal should be
taken into consideration in the planning and implementation of the “new normal
educational policy”. J Tria [1] 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 new educational norm.
Within the new normal, the situation presents a unique challenge to every
educational leader’s decision-making process. Hence, to sustain the delivery of quality of
instruction to every school, this article presents opportunities for responding issues,
problems and trends that are arising and will arise in the future due to COVID-19
pandemic. The author has a keen interest in the current and future trends in the new
normal education. According to Karalis (2020), what is worth studying after returning to
normality, are the implications that have arisen for the day after, that is, what adjustments
need to be made, the extent of the situation and to define the basic dimensions of
education and learning in formal education systems and organizations amid
educational disruptions. Wearing of Face Masks and Physical Distancing Along with the
current spread of COVID-19 pandemic, physical distancing and face masks wearing to
8400, Surigao City
public and private schools are compulsory once classes are resumed or started.
Governments around the world have issued policies and guidelines to implement physical
distancing in order to flatten the pandemic curve (Greenstone & Nigam, 2020; Thunstrom
e al., 2020). In addition, wearing of face masks or even personal protective equipment
(PPE) as a public health intervention would probably intercept the transmission link and
prevent communicable diseases (Huang, 2020). Thus, students, faculty members and non-
teaching staff should be required to wear face masks and maintain physical distancing
with each other when going to schools. In addition, they will be required to strictly follow
hygienic practices, health protocols and other precautionary measures such a contact
tracing, foot baths, sanitation and frequent hand washing. One of the challenges of schools
is to reduce student-teacher ratio which will lead to problems like lack of classrooms and
other physical plants and facilities, lack of teachers and lack of learning materials.
Nonetheless, public health is a concern. Thereby, this recommends every learning
institution to plan such measures and policies on physical distancing and wearing of face
masks. Strengthening Online Learning Platforms Nowadays, we all are staying in our
homes due to the lockdown policy implemented by the government. However, learning
should not halt. Different countries worldwide have introduced various answers during the
pandemic to continue the education process - the introduction of distance learning. These
are online learning platforms such as Google, TV broadcasts, guidelines, resources, video
lectures and online channels were introduced (UNESCO, 2020). With schools to re-open
its doors the following school year, it’s vital to plan how schools will be able to pursue
their mission of implementing quality education to every student. As school is a public
place where crowd is unavoidable and children are vulnerable, there is a need to
strengthen policy in terms of the delivery of instruction - to provide opportunities for
online learning platforms.
