CHAPTER 1
Introduction
Student perceptions are their thoughts, beliefs, and feelings about persons,
situations, and events. Studies show that student perceptions are an important determinant
teachers. And everything is changing and adjusting to the new situation now that we are
in the grip of a pandemic-caused crisis. One of these is the method of teaching in schools,
As a result, students and teachers are using technologies to cope-up the new
normal method classes. Where students and teachers had access to electronic devices and
Blackboard, and applications like Google Hangouts, Zoom and Skype, were used. But
where students had limited access to computers or unreliable access to the Internet,
teachers and students used smartphones to exchange messages, notes, and materials,
through text messaging, e-mail, Facebook Messenger and Twitter. In some instances,
these arrangements became unsustainable and some schools had to suspend remote or
online classes because the uneven socioeconomic status of students affected their access
to these modalities of learning. Also, concerns regarding the mental health of both
students and teachers affected by the uncertainty became another reason to suspend
However, the COVID-19 pandemic also affects the behaviors relationships and
lifestyles, and it has also effects in terms of the economic, political, cultural landscapes of
societies and especially the new method of study. The ECQ ordered that all residents
remain at home and all non-essential businesses, schools and universities, public
transportation facilities, malls, and shopping centers, churches, and other faith-based
institutions be closed. Checkpoints were set up to control people's movement around the
island.
From the confines of their homes, teachers and administrators were put to the
task of revising and adapting course syllabi and requirements as they shifted to
beliefs and perceptions of learning and teaching affect their decisions and choice of their
teaching styles. Moreover, a new paradigm can be forged amid our discomfort, as
educators prepare for a "new normal" in the face of a pandemic like the Covid-19
outbreak. Now is the moment for schools to ensure that teachers do not just adapt their
classroom activities into their online lessons. In addition to discussions led by teachers
and extensive lectures are no longer the norm in this setting. Students in online learning
are frequently torn between their classes and their mobile devices. Normally it is easy for
students to complete their obligations, but the pandemic would make it more difficult.
Senior High teachers in SCC in this new normal are more beneficial because of the
This study aims to know the efficiency of the Teaching Methods in a New Normal
Situation. Specifically, this study sought to answer the following questions:
1. What are the extent problems encountered by the teachers as they learn about the
changes in their teaching method?
2. What is the importance of student understanding towards teachers in the new
normal?
3. What solution did the educators use for those who live in remote places?
The study will be deemed important in recognizing the efficiency of the Teaching
Method in Senior High School teachers of Southern Christian College for the new normal
situation.
Likewise, the findings of the study may improve useful to the following:
Students. This study will encourage students to continue learning even in a new normal
situation. It will make them realize that effective teaching can improve student
achievements. Therefore, they will find ways to organize tasking for everyone.
Teachers. The study will help the teacher in developing decision-making skills, problem-
solving skills, and critical thinking abilities. Students become more productive and
collaborate as a result of the new instructional methods.
Parents. The results of the study will help the parents and teachers to communicate ideas
through web videos. The teachers can advise parents on how to assist with specific
assignments, and parents can provide input on areas where their child may want
additional assistance.
School Administration and Supervisors. The result of this study may encourage
administrators and supervisors in helping their teachers by providing training and seminar
on how to improve their teaching methods, especially in the new normal situation.
Community. Efficient teaching methods extend to their community as well, if students
don't have efficient learning, they will feel bored and their eagerness to learn will slowly
disappear, and this leads to dropouts that may lead to a serious problem later in their
lives.
This study will focus on finding out the perception of senior high school students towards
the teaching methods employed by teachers in the new normal.

METHODOLOGY
This chapter contains the research method that will be used in this study. It
contains the research design, locale of the study, respondents, research instrument, data
gathering procedure, and data analysis.
Research Design
This research will be using a descriptive design since the result of the data will be
described qualitatively. The discussion and analysis are supported by the result of the
conducted survey.
Research Instrument
The main instrument used to collect the data was an online survey questionnaire.
This was supplemented with an interview which was designed and validated by the
researcher.
Data Gathering Procedure
Will be asked to sign the assent form. This is to ensure the identified respondents’
participation is voluntary. As it is voluntary, it is explained to the respondents that they
could withdraw if they think they are uncomfortable with the questions. The respondents’
names are withheld with the utmost confidentiality. In the cases that the respondents have
questions, the researchers will inform them that they could contact the school for any
concerns regarding the question of the respondents. The letter will seek approval from the
Senior High School Principal and be noted by the research adviser for the permission of
the study. Upon approval, the researchers administer the online survey questionnaire to
the respondents of the study. An assent form will be sent to the respondents for signing to
signify their voluntary participation. For ethical purposes and consideration, respondents
the legibility of the study. Furthermore, after the conduct of the study, the questionnaire
will be kept in the researchers’ house.
Data Analysis
The data generated will be analyzed using the appropriate statistical measurements.
Descriptive measures such as frequency, mean, and percentage summarize the results.
