Abstract:
In the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak, this
case study examines the adoption and viability of
in-person instruction in the Magsaysay districts
of Misamis Oriental, Philippines. It fills in the
knowledge gap about the unique customs and
difficulties associated with the return of in-person
instruction in rural areas. A mixed-methods
approach was used in the study, incorporating
focus group talks with school administrators and
surveys. The results show that the district’s schools
have successfully included in-person instruction
by following health regulations, implementing
blended learning, working with stakeholders, and implementing corrective
measures. However, difficulties have been observed, including learning loss and
behavioral problems in students. In order to solve these issues and guarantee the district’s continued capacity to provide in-person instruction, the study’s
conclusion suggests an improved learning continuity plan. Policymakers and
educators working in similar rural environments can greatly benefit from this
research’s insightful observations, which emphasize the significance of customized
approaches and continuous support for successful and long-lasting in-person
instruction.
