    MODULE 1
    Addressing Learning Gaps

    Please do and answer the following tasks. Have some research/reading regarding the
    topic so that you can discuss thoroughly.

    1. What are learning gaps?

    Answers: A learning gap is a discrepancy between

    what a student has learned and what a student was

    expected to learn by a specific point in their

    education. While some learning gaps can be minor

    and relatively easy to remedy (such as a student

    missing a single lesson due to illness), others can be

    significant and cause major learning losses or

    academic setbacks.

    2. What is curriculum gap?


    Answers: The Curriculum Gap: It's the gap between

    where you are and where you want to be, the gap

    between current teaching and next level teaching.

    3. What are the types, examples, and tips in solving learning gaps?

    Answers : Types of Learning Gaps

    Knowledge gaps: Students do not know or were not

    exposed to the correct information.

    Skills gaps: Students have not had the practice

    necessary to develop common skills.

    Motivation gaps: Students lack the motivation to

    advance their knowledge or skills.


    Environmental gaps: Students lack an environment

    conducive to learning.

    Communication gaps: Students experience

    breakdowns in communication.

    Examples of learning gaps are

    *Knowledge Gaps

    As I’ve come to understand it, the knowledge gap is

    somewhat of an exposure gap, as instructional

    experiences are different all around the country. For

    example, every school district handled distance

    learning in its own way, and some just simply didn’t

    have the technology or infrastructure to support

    students who were learning from home.


    Some schools were able to seamlessly transition to

    distance learning, with teachers moving their

    instruction to Zoom in a synchronous way for most of

    the school day. These teachers were able to easily

    form Zoom breakout rooms as a way to lead student

    intervention, continue with book clubs, and provide

    any other necessary instruction to support their

    students.

    For other schools, however, that transition wasn’t as

    smooth. Several teachers I’ve spoken with were only

    able to provide an hour or so of live teaching during

    the school day. In some cases, students were only

    given packets of worksheets or assignments that


    weren’t interactive and far from the same experience

    as learning in person.

    *Environmental Gaps

    Environmental gaps are similar to knowledge gaps,

    but with different outcomes. I was a long-term

    substitute principal for seven months during the

    pandemic, and the school where I was working had

    students at home learning for about five of those

    seven months. My colleagues and I saw quite a few

    at-home learning environments that were far from

    ideal. This included things like:

    Limited space in family homes


    Inadequate or slow internet connections

    Siblings learning alongside other siblings

    Parents trying to work from home

    While learning is not always a quiet activity, these

    environmental factors certainly took a toll on

    students’ learning abilities—especially after dealing

    with them for several months.

    Tips on how to solve Learning Gaps

    Sample papers. Use sample papers to help you identify

    your learners' level and where there are gaps. ...

    One-to-one sessions. Try to have a one-to-one session

    with each learner, time permitting.

    Confidence checks.
    *Quizzes

    4. What are the Learning Gaps in Modular Distance Learning. Cite sources to
    support your claim.

    Answers :The main challenges that the students have


    encountered are self-studying, poor internet
    connection, lack of sleep and time to answer all the
    modules due to the great number of activities,
    distractions, and lack of focus.

    One of the biggest challenges of distance learning


    was trying to meet the needs of all of your students.
    In any given classroom there is such a wide range of
    readiness levels, language levels, and backgrounds.
    And in many cases, this pandemic has exacerbated
    those inequities.
    5. What are some of the interventions to address teaching learning gaps?

    Answers: The first step in addressing learning gaps is to

    identify exactly where and what those gaps are, and

    which students struggle with them. Quizzes are a quick

    and easy way to formatively assess students on what

    they have learnt. These can be mini end-of-topic quizzes,

    or even one covering a few units of a subject.
