Abstract
This qualitative study documents the responses taken by the College of Arts and Sciences (CAS), University of the Philippines (UP) Manila during the COVID-19 pandemic. Utilizing the phenomenological approach, this study narrates the authors' experiences as administrators and faculty members as they responded to the challenges of disruption caused by the pandemic, such as the delivery of Course Packs, digitization of materials, the use of Learning Management Systems, faculty online workshops on remote teaching, and the shift to online transactions. It shows some mechanisms that could be adopted by schools in implementing innovative solutions and strategies to improve the quality of education in the post-pandemic era while some could even be adopted as we shifted to blended learning, bearing in mind the various contexts of our students under the New Normal. The pandemic taught us that these learning tools do not necessarily supplant, but rather supplement, classroom-based instruction.
