In order to provide effective teaching and learning delivery in the new normal since the traditional face-to-face interaction is still prohibited, it is but fitting and essential to gain better understanding of various LDMs in order to address diverse learning needs of our learners considering their geophysical/geographical locations, cultural and economic backgrounds.  Schools would experience setbacks, bottlenecks and problems upon implementing these various LDMs without understanding first their unique backgrounds.

Teachers as well as parents and learners should also need deep understanding on these various LDMs, their positive and negative sides (if any), their benefits contrary to what has been posted in various social media.  With better understanding to these LDMs comes better implementation and a more effective institutionalization or operationalization to these LDMs and in the process, comes better teaching and learning outcomes.

Furthermore, in operationalizing these LDMs in our school where we cater pure online, pure modular and blended LDMs, school heads, teachers, learners, parents and our stakeholders need to understand these LDMs, their distinguishing features, essential resources needed, roles and functions of the school, the teacher and parents so that, along the way, as implementing arms of these LDMs can provide appropriate interventions to address bottlenecks and challenges.

With our better understanding on the different LDMs, we can assure the public or our parents, learners and stakeholders that quality, relevant and liberating basic education can continue in the midst of this pandemic. ###
