| Summary: | This study explores the issues, challenges and student-teachers’ coping
strategies of teaching in a classroom setting during this challenging time of the
Covid-19 pandemic in a new instructional setting of online classes that replace
the face-to-face classroom interaction. Purposeful sampling was employed in
studying 24 student-teachers’ reflective journals through content analysis. The
findings showed that most student-teachers were positive and able to cope with
the issues if enough time were given to them. Based on the themes emerging
from the text analysis, class management and class organisation were not the
main issue. However, other main issues such as Internet accessibility and full
cooperation from the students were more challenging and the actual learning
engagement for the receiving end appears to be compromised due to some
teachers who were inadequately trained for online instruction. (Abstract by authors) |
