Abstract:
This paper aims to identify the challenges faced by grade 7 Mathematics teachers in teaching algebra through the modular-based approach of teaching during this time of the pandemic. The researchers utilized questions answered by the participants to know the challenges faced, and the strategies and training undergone for the new educational system. The researchers used random sampling in the data gathering. Thematic analysis is employed for the data interpretation. According to the findings, one of the challenges of educators is they have difficulty meeting the individual needs of the students in teaching algebra. They find out that letting their students ask a question regarding their modules is one of the best strategies to overcome the difficulty they are facing. This strategy helps them motivate their students who show low interest in schoolwork. Additionally, Webinars for teaching Algebra are one of the professional development programs and training for teachers to overcome challenges in the Modular learning approach. It shows that teachers are having difficulties in this new normal setting as to how are they going to give the quality of education as how the traditional face-to-face class is conducted.
