Subject:: UTILIZATION OF THE SELF-LEARNING MODULES FOR SY 2020-2021


Date: August 20, 2020

Relative to the provision of learning resources in the implementation of the Basic Education Learning Continuity Plan (BE-LCP), this Office advises the Schools vision Offices (SDOs) and schools on the following emerging concerns on the utilization of the Self Learning Modules (SLMS) for SY 2020-2021 : 

1. Learners from Grades 3 - 12 shall use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises as the said SLMs are treated unconsumable. Such instruction is provided in item I under the introductory message to the users of the SLMs such as:

"Use the module with care. Do not put unnecessary marks on any part of the module. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises."

2. Learners from Kindergarten to Grade 2 can write directly their answers of the exercises in the SLMs as it takes time to write the same (including letters, words, sentences and drawings) and considering that learners in these levels may have differing rate of maturity and experiences in terms of grasps and fine motors development

3. The "Answer Key" or "Susi sa Pagwawasto" of the module must be reproduced and attached as part of the SLMs. Purposely, such part is provided in item 4 under the introductory message to the users of the SLMs such as:

"Observe honesty and integrity in doing the tasks and checking your answers."

Teachers together with their school head and curriculum/grade level/department heads may carefully plan a parallel assessment to track and validate learners' learning per module.
