Abstract

Instructional delivery was significantly disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic worldwide, which led to a flexible modality of teaching-learning. This flexible learning modality challenged the readiness of schools and affected the students. This study determined college students’ attitudes toward flexible learning during the COVID-19 pandemic in Albay Province, Philippines, using the explanatory sequential design of the mixed-methods approach. Data were gathered from 365 college students using an online survey, virtual focus group discussions, and informal interviews with 20 students. Salient findings showed that the students generally had favorable attitudes toward flexible learning, with favorable attitudes toward four dimensions: attitudes toward the teacher, learning resources, teaching methods and learning tasks, and technology tools, and neutral attitudes in two dimensions, namely, attitude toward assessment and support services. The students revealed favorable, neutral, unfavorable, and a combination of attitudes toward flexible learning as discerned from their experiences. The students’ experiences indicate that inspiring and competent teachers are crucial figures in sustaining a favorable attitude of students toward flexible learning. This study provides insights into the gaps in implementing flexible learning through the students’ perspectives, especially regarding the schools’ readiness for and improvement of flexible learning in the post-COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly disrupted education worldwide and schools used flexible learning as an alternative modality. This study used a quantitative approach and descriptive research to describe the learning context and determine the students’ preferences in learning modalities, learning materials, learning tasks, and assessment techniques for flexible learning. Four hundred thirty-four (434) students from different levels in Bicol, Philippines, responded to the online survey questionnaire. The results reveal that the learners’ context is inconducive for flexible learning as most do not have learning spaces and experience power interruptions and Internet disconnections. The students were provided individual or group learning tasks and experienced self-paced and interactive learning in flexible learning classes. The students reported that their learning materials, learning tasks, and assessment techniques in flexible learning include teacher-made learning resources, preference for affordable and convenient devices and applications, and usage of e-classroom or online platforms for major assessments with returned scores and feedback. Describing and identifying flexible learning conditions and students’ needs were essential in creating school or community initiatives to enhance students’ flexible learning experiences. The proposed initiatives can be used as strategies for future circumstances that will need flexible learning implementation.
