Hence, distance learning is implemented with the blended learning approach through which learners may learn from online, television, radio and printed materials. Distance learning refers to the learning modality where learning takes place between the teacher and the learner who are remote from each other during the actual period of instruction. This type of learning has three types, namely modular distance learning, online distance learning and television/radio-based instruction. Modular distance learning allows learners to utilize self-learning modules or SLMs in print or digital format. Blended learning is a learning modality that allows a combination of face-to -face and online distance learning, face-to-face and modular learning, face-to-face and TV/radio-based instruction, and face-to-face learning and a combination of two or more types of distance learning.
