MODALITIES

LESSON 1: LEARNING RESOURCE MAPS FOR DISTANCE LEARNING

ACTIVITY 1:
The DepEd Memorandum on Suggested Strategies in Implementing LDMs for SY 2020-2021 included the Learning
Resources (LR) Map as a guide in selecting the appropriate Distance LDM to be implemented in Schools/Divisions.
Study this map and answer the following questions in your Study Notebook:

1. Based on the map, what resources should you have in order to implement the LDM adopted by your
School/Division?
Answer: For online distance learning we have the SLM, online activities/exercises and for the modular distance
learning we have the printed SLM

2. Do you have the complete resources for the Distance LDM needed in class? If the LRs are not complete or not
available, what steps will you take to make these available? What are your options to substitute these missing LRs?
Answer: As of the moment the LRs that I needed for my subjects are complete.

3. What support will you need to maximize the use of the two DepEd-sanctioned LR Portals? From whom can you get
this support?
Answer: I think we need updated LR and more seminars and workshops about on how to maximize the use of
LRs.Though there are different webinars provided by the DepEd but still teachers need more updated and accurate
ways on how to make our work easier.

4. Based on your evaluation of the materials, are they appropriate to the level and characteristics of learners? Are there
learners who might be disadvantaged by the materials (based on reading ability, level of learning independence, level
of household support, distance)? What adjustments will you make in terms of the LRs?
Answer: I think all the materials are appropriate to the level of the students because those are based on the
competencies of each grade level. While on the characteristics of the learners we all know that there is differentiated
learning. Students learn in different ways.

ACTIVITY 2:
In your LAC Session, share and discuss your answers from the previous activity. What support can you provide to
your colleagues and what support can you get from them in terms of LRs? Take note of the insights that you can
gather from your colleagues and write them in your Study Notebook.

LESSON 2: ACCESSING LEARNING RESOURCES FROM DepEd PORTALS

ACTIVITY 1:

Establish access to the following portals:

1. LRMDS Portal. Ensure that you have an LRMDS Portal Account. If you have not registered yet, follow
the LR Portal User Guide to guide you in your registration process. Alternatively, seek assistance from any
of your colleagues or your IT personnel in your school, district, or division. You may also coordinate with
your LAC Leader and/or Coach. To understand the portal better, you may watch the LR Portal Video
Tutorial located in the resources of this Course.
2. DepEd Commons. Ensure that you have access to DepEd Commons. Refer to Memorandum on DepEd
Commons dated March 17, 2020.
Explore the Portals. In your Study Notebook, answer the following questions:
1. Given the LDM adopted in your School, how can the two DepEd portals respond to your LR needs and
those of your learners’? How do they complement the LRs that you already have?
Answer: The LDM adopted by our school is the Blended Learning : Modular as the primary distance
learning and Online as supplemental. The DepEd portals have a great help to the teachers it gives the
teachers other resourcesthat can used asude from the SLM’s which are made by the teachers.
2. What are the challenges in accessing the LRs in the portals both for you and your learners? How will you
overcome these challenges?
Answer: I think the only challenges for both teachers and students is the access to the internet.
3. What support will you need to be able to maximize the use of the LR Portals? From whom can you get
this support?
Answer: LR Portals is a great help for us teachers.

ACTIVITY 2:
In your next LAC Session, share and discuss your answers to the questions in Activity 1. Explore how you can help
and support each other in using the LR portals. Jot down the insights and helpful information regarding the use of the
LR portals in your Study Notebook.

LESSON 3: ASSESSING THE LR MATERIALS

ACTIVITY 1:
Study the LR Rapid Assessment Tool. Download an LR from either DepEd Commons or LRMDS Portal
and assess the material using the tool. Answer the following questions in your Study Notebook:

1. Was the material able to meet all the requirements?

Answer: Yes because the material is based on the MELC.
2. Were there any questions in the assessment tool where you answered “No” or “Cannot Be Determined”?
What decision will you make on the LR material? Why?
Answer: None. I will use the LR materials as a supplementary material to my class. Because the DO
prepared already the SLM’s.
3. Are there other aspects of the material not covered by the tool but still need to be assessed? Specify which
aspect/s.
Answer: I think we need to assess if the material is localized and indiginized.
4. How does this exercise help you in picking the right and appropriate LRs for your lesson and your
learners?
Answer: It gives me the idea if the materials that I decided to used is enough already for me to used in the
opening of classes.

ACTIVITY 2:
Explore other non-DepEd LR portals/platforms you can find online. Take note of the portals in your Study
Notebook. Download at least one LR from each portal. Assess the materials using the same tool and answer
the following questions in your Study Notebook:
1. Based on the Assessment Tool, how does the material from a non-DepEd Portal compare with the LR
from the DepEd Portal?
Answer:
RAPID ASSSSMENT OF LEARNING RESOURCES (NON-DEPED)
Is the LR Material…. Yes No Cannot be determined
1. Connected and relevant to MeLC 
2. Appropriate to the grade lvel and learner characteristics in 
terms of language, activities?
3. Easy to reproduce/dessiminate 
4. from a credible source 
5. culture and gender -fair 
6. free from red flags on possible copyright or plagiarism 
7. the layout and format easy to read and pleasing to the eyes 

2. Based on the results of the Assessment Tool, what improvements do the materials — both from DepEd
and Non-DepEd portals — still need?
Answer: I think they are comparable on the approach on hor they present the topic and on the way they
create activities and environment.
3. How does this exercise help you in picking the right and appropriate LRs for your lesson and your
learners?
ANSWER: It helps me to decide on which specific LRs I will use to my students.

ACTIVITY 3:
Choose one of the LR materials that you have developed. Assess this material using the same tool. Answer
the following questions in Your Study Notebook:
1.How does your material compare with the ones that are obtained from the online portals?
Answer:
RAPID ASSSSMENT OF LEARNING RESOURCES (LR that I have developed)
Is the LR Material…. Yes No Cannot be determined
1. Connected and relevant to MeLC 
2. Appropriate to the grade lvel and learner characteristics in 
terms of language, activities?
3. Easy to reproduce/dessiminate 
4. from a credible source 
5. culture and gender -fair 
6. free from red flags on possible copyright or plagiarism 
7. the layout and format easy to read and pleasing to the eyes 
The materials that I have developed is based from the nature of my students. I know the capacity, nature and
behaviour of my students.
2.What improvements do you still need to make in your developed material?
Answer: I think I need to improve my creativity in choosing the best design for my LR.

ACTIVITY 4:
Share and discuss your answers to the questions in Activities 1, 2, and 3 in your next LAC Session. Jot
down insights and information that can be useful to you in choosing the appropriate LRs.
Submit your LR assessments with your reflection on the exercises to your LAC Leader. Ensure that you
keep a copy for yourself.
