abstract = {This study aimed to assess the initial implementation of the Flexible Learning Modality of Pangasinan
State University Lingayen Campus during the School Year 2020-2021. It explored on the issues and
challenges faced by both teachers and students during flexible instruction. Using extracts from the
responses of teachers (n=123) and students (6370) in the survey questionnaire, the findings showed
that an unstable, weak and poor internet connection and no comfortable teaching and learning spaces
at home appear to pose as greatest barriers for online learning to both the faculty and students.
Further, the study noted that PSU was quick to implement an online learning platform but found that
the gadgets available for use by a number of the respondents could not run the app or at least run its
full features, and which led to another challenge found on the difficulty to download teaching and
learning resources using the software. The researchers concluded that the PSU Lingayen Campus was
prepared in aspects under its control including provision of and orientation to online platforms, and
plans to provide printed guides, but have an understandable lacking on challenges met including
teaching and learning spaces, poor internet connection, and the capacity to purchase mobile load as
means of students to attend classes online. The researchers recommend periodic assessment of the
PSU’s policies for Flexible Learning to provide continued and improved service delivery for both the
faculty and students.},
