Abstract:

This study aimed to determine the perceptions on remote learning of the Muslim parents of school children in Alamada, Cotabato, Philippines. This study used convenience sampling to come up with 50 Muslim parents who were made respondents of the study. Majority of respondents are female Muslim parents, 30 years old and above, high school graduates, and some are college level. This study made use of a researcher-made questionnaire to gather the information on the perception of Muslim parents towards remote learning. Results reveal that the respondents perceived that they have the capacity to balance or manage their time as parents and mentors of their children in remote learning. When it comes to answering their children's modules, the fact that majority of them are college level or high school graduates means some parents know how to answer the module. Finally, the study found out that despite the challenges they faced towards this remote learning, it helped them build strong relationship with their children. Despite the negative issues concerning remote learning and student learning, this learning modality has given Muslim parents and their children a lot of opportunities. Parents were able to observe and focus ontheir children’s learning progress.
