CAPSU Burias employs two learning modalities for AY 2022-2023

by Maila D. Matillano

Students of the College of Education line up for the first distribution of their modules.

On August 8, 2022, Capiz State University Burias Campus officially started the opening of classes for the Academic Year 20222023 with limited face-to-face classes and modular learning scheme as the primary learning modalities to be used for the first semester.

As the Commission on Higher Education already permitted the conduct of limited face-to-face classes across all higher education programs and courses, the campus adopted the instructional method for 3rd year and 4th year college students only, following CAPSU Memo Order 22.08.0763 Series of 2022, which narrated the reminders for LF2F classes, and in light of this,

on August 8 and August 12, the two year levels respectively met their advisers for an orientation and for final announcements.

College students expressed different views when asked regarding what do they feel about attending face-to-face classes again after two years and for Ms. Cherry Mae Villaruel, a third year BSABE student, “I feel happy and excited seeing my classmates, working with them, and knowing our professors as well, yet I'm not that happy because I'm far from my family.”

LF2F are only allowed for lab oratory courses, while nonlaboratory courses may utilize blended learning, including modular

and online, according to the memorandum.

"In my opinion, it is so complicated because the current setup of face-to-face classes is not the same as it used to be. The time in school and the school days are limited,” Ms. Rebecca Luna, a fourth year student from the College of Management, said.

However, college students under first and second year levels purely apply the modular learning modality until now and on August 11, 2022, the first module distribution of the new academic year was done in each department, still, with strict observance of health and safety protocols.
