has suggested that countries need to plan for a multi-fac-

Under the DORP program, three modes of learning were


provided for the learners to be able to continue their
schooling even without attending formal classes. One is
the modular system wherein students are given learn-
ing modules which they can bring home for self-study.
Another one is an internet-based learning which is an
online learning and the blended technology which is a
merger of the modular and internet-based modes of
teaching and learning (SEAMEO INNOTECH, 2012).

The ADMs/FLS are implemented in response to a variety


of challenges, such as overcrowding, teacher shortages,
lack of instructional materials, and remoteness/ inac-
cessibility of schools. As SEAMO INNOTECH (2015) has
concluded, in the aftermath of a calamity, as what we are
experiencing right now, communities may suffer any and
all of the above, which points to the potential of ADMs to
sustain education in emergency contexts.

In relation, the ADM research results further reiterates

II. ALTERNATIVE TEACHING AND LEARNING DELIVERY MODES IN THE SCHOOLS
DIVISION OF BENGUET: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY

BENILDA D. DAYTACA, Ed.D., CESO VI

ABSTRACT

This descriptive research primarily aims to encapsulate collected school stakeholders’ re-sponses in relation to
employing alternative delivery modes of teaching and learning in the Schools Division of Benguet. As for the
participants of the study, purposive sampling was used. Since the study attempts to involve all primary school
stakeholders in the Schools Division of Benguet, all school heads, department heads, and teachers were requested to
answer the constructed online survey questionnaire. Besides, learners and parents in the Division were as well
encouraged to participate in answering the online survey-questionnaire. The researcher has used mixed method
research approach. In analyzing the responses of the participants, frequency count, percentage frequency and thematic
content analysis were employed. Findings of the study revealed that the respondents prefer that teaching and learning
exist as a product of collaboration between parents and the school institution making blended learning as their most
preferred teaching and learning delivery mode. Also, a great number of the respondents in all the districts indicate that
they are willing to provide some but not all necessary equipment for the alternative delivery modes of teach-ing and
learning. Finally, concerns of the school stakeholders with reference to alternative teaching and learning delivery
modes in the Schools Division of Benguet are encapsulated in four themes tagged as 4Cs namely: a) Connectivity,
b) Capability, c) Condition, and d) Constitution. With these, it is then recommended to consider by the
Schools Division Office the research results as bases for institution’s policy framing and Learning Continuity
Plan Development.

Keywords: descriptive, mixed method, alternative delivery mode, school stakeholders

Benguet Hymn

Dear land of mine underneath a starry sky,


So close to God where peace and love reign forever,
Up in the clouds float her breast that heave and sigh,
Her golden crown dazzles the mist in the air.

This is Benguet! Rose of the northern mountain.


May God keep her safe and forever free,
Land of the brave where no evil foot could wonder.
Hail to thee! Province of Benguet...
My own!
