more from that month
The different types of students in the new normal I have previously written an article How we teach in the new normal class in the higher education, I write about the way we handle classes in the new normal. I actually planned to write this article after that, only that it became one of my drafts, was not able to finish it and thought of another topic to pursue. https://read.cash/@MizLhaine/how-we-teach-in-the-new-normal-class-in-the-higher-education-0fc5c3f7 But now, I have the willpower to finish it. I have made my own classification of students based on my observation and experience. Maybe some of the students and educators can relate to this.
**The Perfect in Attendance Students.** These are the students that are always present in the class, may it be announced or unannounced they will really come. I think because they have a stable internet connection and also they are always looking for updates about the class. These types of students are really an encouragement to us because with the student's attendance it shows interests in the class. **The No Show Students**. This type is the opposite to perfect in attendance students. These are the students who are not present in the online classes and not participating in the class activities. As faculty, we are reaching out to this kind of students. **The Finalist Students.** These are the students who showed up only in the Final Term, they would take the final examination or worst ask for a special examination for the first two terms. In the new normal, we would always verify the reasons why the student is not able to be present in the early days of classes. **The Social Media Active Students.** The students that are always active in the social media platforms like Tiktok, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and even post some leisure activities and rants and with no submissions at all. This is sad in our part as faculty because we expect these students to prioritize their studies even its pandemic. But there are some who are always active in social media but not to their classes. **The No Signal Students.** These are the students who are living in far-flung areas that do not have signal at all. They just go to "signal area" to check for updates. Because of limited resources, they usually go there, once or twice a week. But I really admired those students who really tried their best to have updates about the class. But there are also students who capitalize the "No Signal" thing to make an excuse for not submitting requirements. **The Informant Students.** These students act as the Public Information Officer (PIO) that help in informing their classmates about the activities and requirements. For us, they are really a big help because they keep their classmates informed.
**The Achiever Students.** These are the students who are really working well in the class, they are the students who are making submissions on time, and they are doing assignments excellently. I have one student whom I really commend, his works are really exemplary, I can see the passion and determination he put in his submissions. In return, I really gave him a good grade that he deserved! **The Work in Progress Students**. In our school, the students who do not submit all of the requirements are given WIP grade. It means that these students are given time to comply. But there are students who have WIP grades in the previous semesters, and still want to enroll. We really encourage them to comply first. So these are the types of students I have in mind, maybe this article will be added through time. These are actually the kind of students we are handling in the new normal class. **So, are you a student? from which type of students do you belong?

Being a student during this new normal is really hard. Aparents struggle more helping their almost teaching everything, learning together. I am as a single mom working then modules after work it was really stressful but it has to finish her activities. I am doing my best amd my daughter too to finish this with a smile and accomplishments
I must say, thumbs up to you efforts of doing things for your daughter. Our kids really need our help in answering their modules. we are really adjusting in the new normal.
Yieeee, I can see Rusty ulit 💚💚🤩. Ang dami palang uri ng student ngayon haha. Buti nalang di ako nag guro, ang hirap mag turo lalo na pag amg daming sakit ng ulo. Wala pa nan akonh tyaga sa bata aigooo. Baka mapa tulfo din ako if ever hahaha.
Yieee, always na nya ako vinivisit! Yes, dami na talaga, kailangan talaga patience din sa kanila, I was once an idealistic teacher but as time goes by, I learn to adjust with students. Art of teaching is also learned.
Yayyy, mas lalong nakakasipag pa naman pag ganyan 💚. Buti natatyaga mo talaga, basta ako taga kain lang. Ayaw ko mag turo 😣
Yes super nakakasipag nga! Calling daw talaga yan ,sabi pa nga ni @Ruffa.
My comment suddenly vanished kainis naback ko... So just like what I said earlier, we do not use to do the online class but we used the modular class instead. So eventually, all of us were using modular class as our way of learning because it's kinda frustrating, and my back and brain aches just to memorize and understand those context. Sana mawala na yung covid, mas maganda pa nga yung normal education kasi mas may natutunan ako and I admit na medyo mataas taas yung grade ko na nagrarange ng 90+ pero ngayon hindi na eh. Wala kadrain lang po kasi ng utak Ma'am hahabaha.
I am with you on the "sana mawala na si Covid", struggle din kasi namin on how to create course materials na dapat maintindan ng mga students. Lalo na sa lab, paano matuto yong students ng programming if wala man lang silang computer. I hope you can cope talaga, just go on learning! Thumbs up sa tiyaga mo sa pag aaral, you will really reap the fruit of your labors in due time.
