In the Philippines, attempting to push through education despite the fatal pandemic caused by Covid-19 has proven difficult. Despite several objections, the Department of Education (DepEd) and the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) accepted and implemented the flexible blended learning model, despite the risk of open courses due to the virus. Modular (Printed), Modular (Digital), Online, Educational TV, Radio-Based Instruction, Home Schooling, and Blended Learning are the many learning modes. Using the systematic review, the study aims to determine the main educational experiences that used the Modular Distance Learning approach to promote educational knowledge within the Higher Education stage. Modular Distance Learning is implemented for those living in rural areas or provinces where internet connection is only available for a few. The usage of Modules created by teachers with various tasks and learning activities based on fundamental learning abilities is known as modular distance learning. Thus, the main findings of the study revealed that the implementation of modular distance learning or distance education resulted in a significant improvement in students’ knowledge of the specific content covered, despite the fact that both technical and non-technical problems occur during their teaching in distance learning.

“…Recent studies have shown that synchronous online teaching through virtual classrooms provide better outcomes for student learning than asynchronous classes (Cellini & Grueso, 2021). This method of instruction enabled by new technology has brought online instruction one step closer to in-person instruction in a way that was not possible before.…”

Among the many disruptions caused by the COVID-19 Pandemic was the sudden move to online teaching in colleges and universities across the globe. In this paper, we provide a brief overview of existing literature on the effectiveness of online college programs relative to traditional in-person programs. We argue that pre-pandemic studies may have drawn overly pessimistic conclusions about online teaching in higher education. We highlight two important limitations of pre-pandemic studies, namely endogeneity bias and the use of older instructional technology. The data that will emerge from the forced shift to online instruction during the pandemic will help correct several of these biases and provide a more accurate picture of the hopes and challenges of online higher education. Finally, we also provide some preliminary evidence on virtual instruction and evaluation methods using a survey of online undergraduate and graduate classes. We find that large undergraduate classes benefitted greatly from the online format, while smaller graduate classes faced significant challenges. Empirical studies of post-pandemic data will help in identifying when and how online instruction can provide the effective instruction to students to address both the short-term goals of course and degree completion and long-term outcomes in the labor market.

“…By construing the psychosocial needs of students as individual mental health issues, institutions avoid the responsibility of building positive ecosystems. Yet, with local stigma around help-seeking and poorly resourced mental health services [19,20], alongside post-COVID learning losses and weak performance on university exams more generally [21,22], and ongoing future economic and employment uncertainty, learning institutions must and can do more [2,3,[23][24][25]. Further, as many countries are now focused on wellbeing as a national priority, as is the case in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) where this study is situated, educational institutions have additional incentive to meet this national aim, although universities have been slow to adopt the view that wellbeing matters.…”

Happiness and Wellness - Biopsychosocial and Anthropological Perspectives

How happiness is defined depends on who is asked. In the case of universities, student happiness should prevail, yet their voices are often overlooked. This is also the case in the research literature where non-Western views are less frequently reflected. The United Arab Emirates (UAE), a country whose population is comprised of nearly 90% expatriate residents, is a good study case as campuses are filled with international students and the wellbeing of residents is a national priority. Responses from 80 UAE-based expatriate students reveal they are happiest with friends and in social activities and interactions; they want more opportunities to connect socially in classrooms and campuses, efforts which can be crafted by faculty. They also want joyful, inspiring learning where they can discuss and be exposed to other views, with many driven by the need to feel productive, efficacious and engaged. Solutions included the need for faculty to develop warmer student relationships, the maintenance of online learning to reflect realities of work and relationships, and for students to be treated with more respect as fee-paying adults. As the number of international students rise, research into their happiness and what universities can do to increase it remains a global priority.
