Abstract:
The sudden shift to online learning due to the Covid-19 pandemic questioned the learning assets of students in various fields. This study was focused on exploring the challenges encountered by the pre-service teachers in their Hybrid Demonstration Teaching. Looking into the challenges, the exploratory sequential method research was used to fully explore the topic. Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory was used as a theoretical framework. For the qualitative part of the study, the participants were chosen using a purposive sampling technique, while a random sampling technique was used for the quantitative portion. The data was gathered using semi-structured interview questions and survey questionnaires. These were researcher developed questions. Data from the semi-structured interview was used as the basis for the quantitative questionnaire. Subthemes emerged among the challenges in the first part of the study, which is qualitative, and were further validated by the quantitative data gathered. The Mean and Standard Deviation were used in interpreting the data from the quantitative questionnaire. This research found that there were lots of challenges faced by pre-service teachers in their preparation, during the actual, and post-conference of their hybrid demonstration teaching. One of the challenges faced in their preparation for their hybrid demonstration was finding a location where they could do their demonstration. For their actual hybrid demonstration, one of the difficulties they encountered was the noise in their surroundings. While one of their shared experiences after the hybrid demonstration was feeling accomplished and relieved as the evaluator discussed the evaluation report. Based on the findings of the paper, one of the recommendations mentioned by the researchers was teachers should hold meetings about what to prepare and expect for the hybrid demonstration of student-teachers who will be conducting their demonstration in a hybrid set-up, so that pre-service teachers can prepare the place, resources, and the pupils they will have for their demonstration ahead of time.
