| Summary: | Crisis and precarity are excellent teachers. The COVID-19 pandemic prompted a sudden shift to online teaching in most educational institutions, especially in the Philippines. While the change to remote online learning appeared to be the most sensible option, studies have indicated that teachers faced various challenges in preparing and delivering quality content. Through the lens of adaptive expertise, this study describes selected Filipino junior and senior high literature teachers' challenges, interventions, and epiphanies amid online instruction and the pandemic in public and private schools. The data on teachers’ experiences and coping mechanisms in online literature teaching during a global crisis were gathered through written narratives and online semi-structured interviews, then analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that the literature teachers have encountered physical, emotional, and pedagogical challenges, utilized innovative and adaptive methods and tools to continue the quality and equitable literature education, and discovered the integral role of care and empathy in teaching literature amid a crisis. The insights of this study aim to help teachers, scholars, and education stakeholders construct new perspectives and improvements on the teaching and learning process of literature post-pandemic and beyond. |
