Sick Earth-Plague Day 312
MANILA, Philippines — Education Secretary Leonor Briones on Tuesday assured public school teachers and students that her office was acting promptly on their complaints after some questioned her declaration that the opening of classes was a “victory” against COVID-19.
“These problems [during the opening of classes] are being addressed immediately. What we still see as a challenge of course is connectivity but blended learning offers other learning modalities if online learning is not doable for them,” Briones said at a press briefing.
As public schools reopened on Monday, teachers reported that in some cases, the number of students dwindled by almost 50 percent by the end of the day due to connectivity problems.
