    The document expresses support for the limited implementation of face-to-face classes in the Philippines amid the COVID-19 pandemic for several reasons: 1) Remote learning has caused difficulties for students and teachers that can begin to be addressed through limited in-person interaction. 2) Infection rates are decreasing in some areas as vaccination rates increase, allowing for a gradual return to more normal operations, including in-person schooling. 3) Continuing to limit education solely to remote formats risks stagnating growth and knowledge for students, which could negatively impact the country's future.

    What is your stance about the Government’s implementation of

    limited face to face classes?

    Knowledge Shall Remain Continuous, Despite All

    #OpenTheSchools is a well-known Twitter hashtag trend that intends to


    gain public support for the Ligtas na Balik Eskuwela movement. It is a widely-
    known fact that this pandemic caused the existing systems to change abruptly,
    the education system not being excluded. As this pandemic continues to change
    the standard way of living, the Department of Education (DepEd) is under
    complete obligation to fulfill Learning Continuity Plans that aim to guarantee
    that education will continue amid the current crisis. Days turned into weeks,
    and weeks turned into months; slow yet remarkable progress can be noted. Bit-
    by-bit, schools among the low-risk areas, start to implement limited face-to-face
    classes in the hopes of re-establishing the traditional way of learning.

    The implementation of limited face-to-face classes in the country

    symbolizes progress. A progression wherein one of the main objectives is to


    gradually overcome the difficulties learners and teachers live through as a result
    of remote learning. The Asian Journal of Distance Education (asianjde.org,
    Education Technology (EdTech) Media & Community - EdTechReview) conducted
    a thorough analysis. Later on, a published paper revealed the result of collected
    data in concern with the categories of difficulties in remote learning. The
    published paper then stated that the following categories of difficulties are
    unstable internet connectivity, inadequate learning resources, electric power
    interruptions, vague learning contents, overloaded lesson activities, limited
    teacher scaffolds, poor learning environment, and the effects of compromised
    physical and mental health caused by excessive stress. These difficulties are
    contextual evidence that should be considered valuable input for the further
    development of the current education process. As the education system demands
    constant development and modification, the implementation of limited face-to-
    face classes signifies that the country's education sector shall not be left behind.
    Moreover, the implementation of limited face-to-face classes in the

    Philippines does not intend to go back to the traditional mode of learning forcibly.
    It does not support the act of neglecting risks. From the word itself limited, it
    demands to be controlled by completely abiding by mandatory protocols,
    restrictions, and guidelines to ensure safety and security from the possible
    dangers and threats from the highly-contagious virus. In fact, as per the
    proclamation of the Presidential Palace and Education Secretary Leonor Briones,
    the conduct of limited face-to-face classes are strictly only applicable within
    areas that have minimal risk of COVID-19 infection. Furthermore, the
    Department of Health (DOH) and Department of Education (DepEd) agreed upon
    the suggested schedule of in-person classes being only held "half a day every
    other week" and not on a daily basis. This verifies that the primary goal of
    conducting limited and controlled in-person classes is to allow the flow of quality
    education by gradually re-establishing the traditional mode of learning without
    the means of jeopardizing learners and teachers.

    In the Philippines, the attempt to boost economic growth by implementing


    modified and less severe quarantine protocols is directly affected by the current
    COVID-19 situation. According to ourworldindata.org, a total of 89.1 million
    doses have been administered in the Philippines, and 33.6% of the Filipino
    population are already completely vaccinated. Next to that, the daily positive
    cases are starting to decrease day-by-day, although it may vary from area to
    area; this progress enables the government units to implement lower levels of
    quarantine protocols. The entertainment and business sectors are starting to
    acquire vital advantages to achieve economic recovery. If other economic sectors
    begin to take steps toward refinement, it would be best for the education sector
    to obtain opportunities as well for the purpose of taking steps toward recovery.
    On top of that, pediatric vaccination among the age range of 12 to 17-year-olds
    is already being fulfilled, covering an extensive portion of underage learners. It
    is given that the country's path to restoration and recovery may be considered
    implausible, but taking revised adaptive steps can be an endeavor for the
    nation's complete recovery. Besides, if not now, then when?

    On behalf of the Filipino Youth, who stands firm in Jose Rizal's words,
    "Without education and liberty, which are the soil and the sun of man, no reform
    is possible, no measure can give the result desired.", it is significant to firmly
    uphold to believe in the fundamental truth that we, as youth, are considered as
    the nation-builders of our country. In spite of the fact that the Philippines is one
    of the countries globally that have not started in-person classes since the
    pandemic began affecting the right to learn of more than 27 million Filipino
    students, growth and knowledge shall not remain entirely stagnant. It should be
    continuously growing and rising, despite all. The mic is yours, will you allow this
    pandemic to further limit your capabilities?
