THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
134 1 2
“Technology will not replace great teachers but technology in the hands of great
1
teachers can be transformational.”- George Couros
The Philippine basic education system has begun its boldest paradigm shift yet
1
upon its implementation of the Republic Act 10533 known as “Enhanced Basic
135 1 3 4
Education Act of 2013”, which gave birth to the K to 12 program in the country.
5
Supporters of K to 12 program have cited the educational improvements
6
experienced by First World countries such as The Netherlands,[1] and envision
that the same may be replicated in the Philippines once the 12-year cycle
becomes institutionalized.
7
Perhaps the most complicated among all the components of K to 12 program is
1 1 8
the senior high school level, where various “tracks” have been created to
9
accommodate the diversity of students. The implementation of senior high
10 11
school has been met with mixed reactions, but as the system rolled out things
became much clearer eventually.
12 1
One of the highlights of senior high school program of DepEd’s K to 12 is its
13
technology integration. Advancements in technology practically governs the
14
entire system and students are exposed and trained with all sorts of
technological equipment—the majority of which are computers.
15 16
Technology is indeed an indispensable part of the 21st century learning. This is
17
likely the reason why there is a need to systematize the utilization of
136 18 19
technology vis-à-vis the K to 12 implementation. Pursuant to Article XIV, Sec 1
of the Philippine Constitution and Sections 10 and 12 of Republic Act 10650,
otherwise known as the Open Distance Learning Act, and in response to the
2012 Paris OER Declaration, the Department Of Education (DepEd), the
Technical Education And Skills Development Authority (TESDA), the
134
Commission on Higher Education (CHED), and the University of the Philippines
Open University (UPOU) jointly issued an Open Educational Resources (OER)
policy in the Philippines.[2]
1 20 1
Blended learning: the ‘new normal ’
21
The DepEd has announced its adoption of blended learning for school year
135 22
2020-2021 that will begin on August 24, 2020. The department has speci cally
described the blended learning setup that will have three modalities: rst, the
online learning modality, second, the modular modality; and third, the face-to-
23
face modality. Students who have stable and strong internet access may opt to
137
choose the rst modality, while those who do not have internet connections
24
may continue learning through student modules to be provided by the school.
25 26 1
Face-to-face modality may only be done if a certain locality is considered a ‘l
1,27 28,29
ow-risk area’ i.e. there is a relatively low number of Covid-19 cases recorded in
30
the area.
Understanding blended and online learning now becomes an inevitable task for
practically everyone in the education setting—from the students, parents,
31
teachers, school administrators up to the national education leaders. Gurley
138
(2018) emphasized in her study that blended and online learning are modalities
32 1
of distance education. Distance education has been de ned as “education that
uses one or more technologies to deliver instruction to students who are
33
separated from the instructor and to support regular and substantive
interaction between the students and the instructor synchronously or
136 1
asynchronously” (U.S. Department of Education, 2014, p. 1). Blended courses
34
have been de ned as courses that incorporate face-to-face class meetings
with online learning activities, with at least 30% to 79% of the course materials
and activities delivered online (Allen & Seaman, 2013). Allen and Seaman
(2013) de ned online courses as having at least 80% of the course materials
134
and activities completed online with limited face-to-face meetings. [3]
35 36
Undeniably, the traditional face-to-face method of teaching differs greatly to
139
the online, virtual teaching setup. Teaching in blended and online learning
environments requires different pedagogical approaches than teaching in face-
to-face learning environments (Baran & Correia, 2014; Baran et al., 2013).
135
Pedagogical approaches include learner-centered learning theories, teaching
and learning methods, and methods for evaluating learning outcomes (Shea, Li,
140 Swan, & Pickett, 2005). Often, educators who perceive themselves as expert
teachers in face-to-face classrooms perceive themselves as novice teachers in
137
virtual classrooms (Ali et al., 2005).
37 1 38 1
It is therefore agreed that teachers, who will be the “front liners ” to yet
1 1
another “war zone” that is education, must be provided with enough assistance
in as far as professional development programs relating to blended learning is
141
concerned. Baran and Correia (2014) proposed that administrators must
provide support and professional development programs that not only address
39 40
technologies but also pedagogies speci c to utilization of the technologies. In
41
addition, faculty must receive support at the community level (peer support
138
and mentoring) because teaching in the online environment can lead to
isolation from other faculty members. Organizational support is necessary,
especially for novice online faculty, to recognize the increased workload and
58 59
But no matter how timely the adoption of OER considering the onset of the
60
global pandemic, the challenge remains: there is not enough resources to ll in
136 1 1,61 62
this “portal of knowledge”. Learning materials continue to be lacking, not all
63
subjects have been created with reference materials. As a result, teachers
64 65 66
would often nd their own ways in searching for resources, oftentimes at their
67
own expense.
Thus was the problem that this study intends to address. The apparent lack of
134
enough resources could easily make the OER a rather futile and wasted effort
142
145
by the DepEd. In order to avoid this unnecessary waste of public funds and
139
government efforts, the researcher plans to create a technology that would
68
provide supplementary learning materials that is accessible for both teachers
69 70 1
and students. This technology is thus called, “Learning Content Management
143
135 1 71 72
Systems” or LCMS. The materials may be done online or of ine, because
73 74
internet connectivity poses yet another challenge especially for students. The
144
140 concept of synchronous and asynchronous learning also comes to light,
75 76 1
wherein synchronous learning is de ned as, “online or distance education that
137 77 1,78
happens in real time ”. Meanwhile, asynchronous learning occurs through
79
online channels without real-time interaction. [6] The LCMS as proposed by the
80
researcher will provide a seamless combination of synchronous and
81 82
asynchronous modes of learning, so that inclusivity in education is ensured and
141 83
that no student shall be left behind despite the prevailing pandemic.
84
Incorporating LCMS in the new normal educational setting
Speaking of inclusivity in education, the most ideal LCMS would be something
146
that can be accessed on a wide array of devices, from desktop computers up to
138
147
the smallest technological gadget one can use—a mobile phone. It is worth
noting that in the Philippine setting, not everyone has the means to purchase
85 86
their studying children a desktop computer, a laptop or even a tablet to
87
accommodate the forthcoming blended learning setup. Mobile phone is
88
arguably the most possible technological gadget a public school student may
136
have who belongs to an average Filipino family.
148 89 1
Wang et al. (2009) de ne mobile learning as, “the delivery of learning to
students anytime and anywhere through the use of wireless Internet and mobile
1 1
devices” (p. 92). Similarly, Asiimwe and Grönlund (2015) regarded “mobile
1 90 1
149 learning” as, “the process of exchanging and acquiring knowledge, and
134
delivering learning instructions and content to students through the use of
142
145 91 1
wireless Internet, mobile devices, web and mobile applications.” Mobile devices
139 92
such as the cellphones have become the most convenient tool for many
93 94
students because of its portability and mobility. Even during face-to-face
classes, students have been using mobile phones to download lessons, take
143
135 95 96
150 notes, capture photos, record videos among others. Therefore, in terms of
97
exibility, collaboration and communication, mobile technologies can play a
144 98 1 1
140 critical ‘freedom of choice’ role regarding how and where to learn, which is core
99
in distance education (Parsons 2009). [7] Now that the world is compelled to
137
implement distance learning to prevent the spread of the deadly virus, mobile
phones will most probably become the sole connection between a student and
the teacher.
100
LCMS would not only prove bene cial for students, but for the classroom
141
teachers as well. Active collaboration is one of the ultimate goals of this
101
technology for the educators.
146
Objectives of the Study
138
147
General Objective
151
The main objective of this study is to develop a Learning Management Content
System.
Speci c Objectives
Speci cally, the study seeks to:
136
1. Design a Learning Management Content System that has the following
148
features:
102
• Learning contents/topics are based on the Course Outline of K12 Curriculum
Guide.
149 • Consists of interactive multimedia elements such as text, animation, videos,
134
and audio; and
142
145
2. Develop the system as designed using the following applications:
139
Moodle, XAMPP, XHTML, CSS, JavaScript, Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft SQL
Server, Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, Adobe Photoshop, and Windows Media
Player.
143
135
150 3. Test the performance of the developed learning management content system
in terms of functionality and portability; and
144
140 4. Evaluate the acceptability of a Learning Management Content System using
103 104 105
the following criteria: Instructional Content, Graphics/multimedia, Layout,
137 106
Interactivity, Assessment, and User friendliness.
110
the courseware were designed to enhance the learning competencies every
subject offered in Grade 11.
136
The technical content of the learning content management system includes
148
introductory skills and knowledge needed for a course. There are seven (7) core
152
subjects namely: (1) Earth and Life Science, (2) General Mathematics, (3)
Introduction to the Philosophy of the Human Person/Pambungad sa Pilosopiya
149 ng Tao, (4) Komunikasyon at Pananaliksik sa Wika at Kulturang Pilipino, (5) Oral
134
Communication, (6) Personal Development/Pansariling Kaunlaran (7) Physical
142
145
Education and Health. In each lesson, there are different assessment activities
139
to measure the learning progress and achievements of the students using
111
interactive courseware.
11
The development of a learning content management system does not intend to
143
135 1
150 replace the learner’s manuals or modules. Hence, this learning content
113
management system serves as a bank for an additional instructional material
144
140 for teachers and students.
114
The project will be developed using programming languages such as
137
Microsoft Of ce Applications, Moodle, XAMPP, XHTML, CSS, JavaScript,
Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, Adobe Photoshop, and
115
Windows Media Player. The project can store and retrieving data as one of the
116
primary features of Moodle data directory.
141
The study is limited only to core subjects offered in Grade 11 Senior High
117
School which covers one grading period based on K-12 Curriculum Guide. The
project runs on different web browsers like Google Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft
146 118 119
Edge, Internet Explorer and can be access in laptop, desktop, netbook
138
147 120 121 122
computers and smart phones. The computer should have 1.8 or faster
151
computer to run the learning content management system smoothly. The
123 124
learning content management system was hosted in a website. Only the
125
developer and administrator of the project is authorized to upgrade and modify
the content of the learning content management system. The student and
136
teacher should register to the database of the system to store and retrieve the
148
information needed for the program.
152
There will be forty (40) respondents composed of Senior High School Teachers,
ICT Experts and Students of Las Piñas City National High School who will be
126
149 evaluating the acceptability of the Leaning Content Management System.
