A Conceptual Model in Dealing with the Challenges of Education
Abstract: The leap of education from classrooms to homes on a large scale and in a rush posed immense human and technological challenges (for example, developing, maintaining, and enhancing distance learning or measuring and validating learning) (UNESCO, 2020). Other factors such as (1) poor internet connectivity, (2) unavailability of gadgets, (3) poor digital and ICT skills have left other teachers and students to struggle in this modern learning environment (UNSDG, 2020). Therefore, it is normal for Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to evolve and change in such unprecedented and difficult circumstances. Educational leaders and managers, specifically, Deans of Philippine Colleges of Nursing, are poised to respond to the call of time that education must not stop despite the ill effects of the pandemic. As such, this paper will examine the three stages of Lewin's model: unfreezing, movement, and refreezing, as well as the Hersey-Blanchard Situational Leadership Model to implement change in the organization and to have a leader that will guide those resistant to change.
