... Meron talagang kahinaan to begin with, medyo lumalana lang dahil napilitan silang study from home. Isa nga sa naging efekto ng pandemya na marami daw, 1000-1000 mga estudyante sa mga pribadong paaralan meron ang learning loss sa math and science.

Ngayon, why yung specifically math and science ang naapektuhan ng remote learning? Yun ako curious partner. Bakit doon? Ano ba ang kailangan bang mas maganda ang pagtuturo ng math and science kapag on-site, face-to-face with the teacher?

Malaman po natin yan, mula sa ating panawin, siya po ay nasa... Zoom! Zoom! Zoom!

Si Atty. Christine Carmina. Ah, eto pala si Casey ngayon. Pumasok pala si Casey. Ibang Casey lang yung pumasok ngayon.

Si Atty. Casey Manawag. Siya po ang legal counsel po ng COCOPEA o yung Coordinating Council of Private Educational Associations of the Philippines.

Atty. Casey, good morning. Tony and Shea.

Good morning, ma'am.

Hi. Good morning, Tony and Shea. At sa lahat ng sumasabay-bay ngayon, magandang umaga rin po sa inyo.

Yes. So, ito po bang study na ito ng University of San Carlos at ng Thames International School? Narating na po ba ito sa kaalaman po ninyo sa COCOPEA?

Actually, we already know about the study but we need to see the details ng report or study so we can have yung experts natin review and address the issues that was raised in the study.

But we also take note, Tony and Shea, that it covered only about 3,000, 3,600 students which is a fraction of the 2.2 million students in the private schools.

Pero I think this is still significant, the study is still significant kasi it is a wake-up call for us that there is an issue, there is a learning crisis at the moment in our country.

Curious lang nga rin ako, Atty. Casey, kung bakit itong mismong particular subjects na ito ang naapektohan siguro noong pagbabago sa ating learning system during the pandemic.

And why would it be so sigbihin na nating difficult to improve yung learning capabilities ng mga kabataan in science and math kung hindi sila face-to-face classes?

What would be the difficulty there, Atty. Casey?

Actually, I think kasi science and math are very technical subjects.

Mismong teachers natin pinag-aaralan ng mabutihan para maturot nila din ng maayos sa mga studyante.

I think there's already a level of difficulty even pre-pandemic. So pre-pandemic may certain level of difficulty sa pagtuturo at sa pag-aaral ng science and math.

And medyo na-exacerbate ng pandemic kasi as we know hindi face-to-face, nag-online tayo and we have one of the longest lockdowns.

Tayo din yung isa sa mga, I think we were second to the last country na nag-face-to-face na bumalik sa physical classes.

So I think yun yung nag-contribute sa results in relation to these subjects.

So maaaring dahil na kapag nasa bahay lang yung bata, affected siya maybe by the immediate surroundings niya.

May mga distractions or maaaring pangit yung internet connection niya. Hindi niya maintindihan niyo less kung putol-putol yung internet.

Definitely. Also, I think din kasi technical subjects itong science and math.

I think medyo nahihirapan din ng parents natin to homeschool ng ating mga students.

And of course, during the pandemic parents talaga yung naging primary teachers at home tapos naging supplement ang ating mga school teachers.

Pero ikaw partner, sa tingin mo when you teach math and science kahit na face-to-face man or sa remote learning,

kahinaan na ba talaga ang ating educational institutions in the way we teach those subjects sa mga bata? What do you think Atty. Casey?

I think ano naman siya. The science and math have been taught in the same way that it has always been taught.

It's just I think the mode of teaching during the pandemic that highlighted the issues in learning the subjects.

Ako Atty, ako ang tanong ko lang is ano ang ginagawa ng mga schools to improve at least to entice yung interest ng mga studyante?

Kasi every year ito halos partner, nakikita natin itong poor performance ng mga studyante sa evaluation pagdating sa math and science.

Of course, the schools, I think both the education system, the schools talaga are trying to come up with more creative ways to teach the subjects.

All subjects, not just science and math. So with the help of yung blended learning natin ngayon na partially nag-online sila but pumapasok na rin sila sa school physically,

this will I think augment or somehow allow our students to catch up kung ano man yung naging setback during the pandemic.

Kasi we also need to remember yung learning loss during the pandemic was quite common all over the world.

But I'm not saying naman it is okay because it's happening all over the world but instead these kinds of studies should prompt us to be more proactive in coming up with steps to address yung learning issue.

Last na lang partner, paano niyo atorney sa side ng Kokopea, paano po ninyo in-improve naman yung capacity ng mga teachers niyo na magturo?

Kasi partner ngayon nakikita ko elementary may algebra na, mas mahirap, mas complicated na ngayon, di po ba?

For the teachers, of course the schools ensure that our teachers are capacitated even before the start of the school year. So every start ng school year nagkakaroon yan.

Thank you for watching!
