Jakarta:Several states Previous experience with Home-Based Teaching and Learning (PdPR) has facilitated a smooth transition for parents and students as schools were closed due to haze conditions.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, teachers swiftly prepared digital learning materials and assignments, ensuring that education continued uninterrupted. This readiness allowed students to prepare for classes and examinations without needing to attend physical schools.

In the federal capital, Marlina, a civil servant, found her work schedule allowed her to assist her eight-year-old daughter with online lessons. Her daughter, a student at Sekolah Kebangsaan Danau Kota 2, was accustomed to online learning from her kindergarten days during the COVID-19 pandemic.

In Selangor, Razif Mat Arbak appreciated the PdPR system for his son, who is preparing for the Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) examination. The online format eased his concerns about his son's health amid the haze and enabled focused exam preparation.

Raheemie Arifin, a father in Shah Alam, supported the Ministry of Education's decision to close schools, highlighting the health risks for younger children. He emphasized that PdPR allows children to learn comfortably at home, away from polluted air.

In Negeri Sembilan, students used PdPR for exam preparation. Dania Irdina Mohd Hair Adnan, a Form Two student at SMK Seremban 3, noted that teachers began posting assignments early in the morning, which were submitted through their DELIMa 3.0 accounts.

In Johor, frontline worker Muhammad Faiz Husin remarked on the systematic management of PdPR, although it required continuous supervision from parents to ensure timely completion of assignments.

Meanwhile, in Melaka, the implementation of PdPR varied, with some teachers conducting live online sessions and others assigning work to be completed at home. Asmawati Ibrahim, a housewife from Semabok, reported that her child's PdPR session followed the original school timetable with various subjects covered.

Amyleena Ashakri, whose child is in Year One at a school in Tengkera, mentioned that no live online classes were scheduled, and pupils were tasked with completing work shared via a class WhatsApp group. She regularly checked the group to ensure her child did not miss any assignments.
