Abstract:

This study aims to determine the problems faced by teachers in the conduct of curriculum and instructions in distance learning. The study employed a descriptive-correlational design. The study used a descriptive method in describing the characteristics of the demographics and the delivery of curriculum and instructions. Three thousand eighty-seven respondents were drawn from the population. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The study found that it is very challenging for the respondents in the delivery of curriculum and instructions as to quality content, assessment, and support for distance learning. The findings revealed that age, position, and the number of years in teaching have a strong association with the delivery of curriculum and instruction. The number of training was inadequate; there should be relevant training appropriate to the modality implemented. The findings of the study provide data to the Division of Surigao del Sur to know the different factors affecting the delivery of the curriculum and instruction in modular distance learning. The results also serve as a springboard to revisit the assessment practices and methodologies used by the teachers in the delivery of assessment in the new normal as well as the capacity building for school leaders focused on the curriculum and instructions for future improvements on the implementation of modular distance learning in the new normal.
