The Department of Education (DepEd) expects that all public and private schools shall have transitioned to five days of in-person classes by Nov. 2, 2022, as stipulated in DepEd Order No. 34, s. 2022. But since COVID-19 might not be completely gone by November, people can't be faulted for being hesitant about going face-to-face fully. How safe will the world be by then, especially for students and teachers? Are the schools ready to return to this setup? How about our individual and collective investment as teachers and students in adapting to online education? Will all these be put to waste? The pros and cons of online teaching are aplenty.
