    This position paper argues that online learning is not effective for Filipino students based on a news report. The report found that students engaged in online and blended learning had reduced learning outcomes compared to face-to-face classes. It also highlighted negative impacts on students' mental and physical health during COVID-19 and a substantial increase in learning poverty in the Philippines in 2021. While some argue online learning provides flexibility, the paper asserts that resource disparities and digital divides exacerbate challenges for many Filipino students. It concludes that the evidence strongly supports that online learning is ineffective due to negative impacts on academic performance, health, and rising learning poverty.

    Issue: Is online learning effective or not?

    Claim: Online learning is not effective for Filipino students.

    SUPPORTING EVIDENCES: In a news report by Aneth Ng-lim in 2022 titled "Why our
    kids need to go back to face-to-face classes," it was highlighted that
    students engaged in modular, online, and blended learning experienced reduced
    learning outcomes compared to the traditional face-to-face class setup. The
    adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic were not limited to academic
    performance, as both the mental and physical health of students were
    significantly affected. The report further emphasized that remote learning
    contributed to a substantial increase in learning poverty in the Philippines,
    reaching 90 percent in 2021. These findings underscore the multifaceted
    challenges posed by the prolonged period of remote education and advocate for
    the imperative need to reintroduce face-to-face classes for the holistic well-
    being and academic development of students.

    The Ineffectiveness of Online Learning for Filipino Students

    (A Position Paper)

    The issue at hand revolves around the effectiveness of online


    learning for Filipino students. Given the circumstances described in the
    news report by Aneth Ng-lim (2022) titled "Why our kids need to go back to
    face-to-face classes," which highlights the challenges faced by students
    in modular, online, and blended learning compared to traditional face-to-
    face classes. The thesis statement asserts that online learning is not

    effective for Filipino students, as evidenced by the negative impact on


    academic performance, mental and physical health, and the alarming
    increase in learning poverty.

    Academic Performance. Online learning hampers academic performance,


    as indicated by the report. The report reveals that students under
    modular, online, and blended learning learned less compared to traditional
    face-to-face classes.

    Impact on Health. Mental and physical health of students is


    significantly affected by the challenges posed by online learning during
    the COVID-19 pandemic. The news report highlights the adverse effects on
    the mental and physical health of students.

    Learning Poverty. It is my belief that remote learning has


    contributed to a surge in learning poverty in the Philippines. The report
    states that learning poverty in the Philippines increased to 90 percent in
    2021 due to remote learning.

    While some may argue that online learning provides flexibility,


    it is crucial to recognize the disparities in access to resources and the
    digital divide, which exacerbate the challenges for many Filipino
    students. Additionally, proponents of online learning may highlight
    successful cases; however, the overall negative impact, as highlighted in
    the evidence, suggests a broader issue.

    In conclusion, the evidence presented strongly supports the claim


    that online learning is not effective for Filipino students. The
    challenges encompass academic performance, health, and the alarming rise
    in learning poverty. Despite potential counterarguments, the overall
    negative impact on the education system and student well-being cannot be
    ignored.
