Abstract:

This converging inquiry aims to analyze the perceptions of students and instructors toward the predetermined asynchronous sessions from a Philippine Private Higher Education Institution. Predetermined asynchronous sessions were implemented to provide a certain autonomy and address a certain level of difficulties experienced by the students in the previous academic years. A validated research instrument was floated among the students and educators of the institution for an ample period of time. It revealed that the perception toward the predetermined asynchronous classes varies among students and educators at the institution. On one hand, students and educators agreed to have flexibility and the liberty to schedule their asynchronous classes due to various valid reasons.
