COVID-19 has swept the globe, prompting the World Health Organization to
designate it a pandemic on March 11. Due to this unprecedented spike, it has greatly affected

of the world’s student population was affected by lockdowns and quarantines, and 1.52
billion students were absent from school and related educational institutions (UNESCO
Learning Portal, 2020). With this sudden outbreak of virus, universities are in dire need to
find ways of coping up with the effects and stabilize the learnings of the students. Physical
education could be a natural place to deal with public health concerns (McKenzie &
Lounsbury, 2014). Education lessons are important for several pupils and students in terms of
getting them active and building healthy habits. Education teachers recognize the necessity of
designing activities that are both relevant and entertaining so as to encourage pupils and
enhance their physical strength and health. Instructors, on the opposite hand, had to adapt and
implement creative opportunities for STEM students during online learning. Being fit and
knows how to have a healthy lifestyle helps students to become socially literate and be active
in the community. Though in-person and team interactions are limited, the pandemic forced
educators to embrace remote learning. Most of the teachers did their best to have a more
efficient and effective learning through finding some ways like blended learning. How would
they cope up with this new era of learning in where it has many challenges that should be
overcome.

students communicate with other students. Typically, students learn fully on their own and at

their needs are not met. When these psychological demands are addressed adequately in

2019). Supporting these three psychological requirements in the classroom increases the

While SDT has been widely used to maximize student learning in face-to-face settings
(Ryan & Deci, 2017–2020), it has been mostly ignored in research on online learning in K–
12 settings (Chen & Jang, 2010; Hsu et al., 2019). Ryan and Deci (2020) recommended that
future SDT research should focus on the ways in which technology used in e-learning and
remote classrooms encourage student involvement and learning. Although online learning has
been examined in higher education (Hsu et al., 2019), the impact of teacher support on school
pupils is somewhat different than the influence on university students. As a result, from an
SDT viewpoint, we know relatively little about how K-12 school kids engage in online
learning. Through the viewpoint of SDT during the pandemic, this study examined the
relationships between need satisfaction and student engagement in the K-12 online learning

According to SDT, instructional practices are classified into three dimensions: autonomy

engagement helps to create a more supportive learning environment (e.g., more autonomy
support, more valued activities), the learning environment benefits student motivation, which
has traditionally been viewed as a result of motivational processes; cultivating various sorts
of motivation serves as a catalyst for students to engage in learning activities (Reeve, 2013).
As such, it falls under the purview of SDT (Losier et al., 2001; Ryan &Deci, 2017,2020).
SDT distinguishes intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and its theories examine how social and
cultural elements contribute to or detract from individual well-being and performance quality

effective, and challenged; and relatedness refers to the desire to interact, feel linked, and care

increased autonomy in motivation will result in increased student engagement and learning.

General Problem
The COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on the life of everyone and everything. Too
many changes have occurred in the economic and social lives of all people as a result of this
issue. This pandemic had a significant impact on educational institutions and workplaces.

Students were forced to study online and schedule events on their own time, as there was no
other option available to them. This virus is spreading at an alarming rate and has a huge
impact on the school system throughout the world. This research will be focused on the
concerns regarding the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic on the learning process in
educational settings. Additionally, one of the difficulties students are experiencing as a result
of the pandemic's impact on education is the lack of digital learning tools and internet
connectivity, as well as the lack of environmental boundaries that surround each student's
house. Students and teachers will benefit from this research because it will aid in the
adjustment, improvement, and broadening of understanding of the various long- and short-
term approaches to managing the effectiveness and efficiency of professional learning for
students and teachers that are related to this issue which has an impact on the educational
system.
Specific Problem
The findings of this study will provide an overview of the effects of the COVID-19
pandemic on learning. STEM Students from Malaybalay City National Science High School
are involved in the process. In particular, this investigation intended to provide answers to the
following questions:
3. How is the perception of learners affected by the new learning process brought about
4. What is the perception among STEM students on the learning process amidst COVID-
19 pandemic?
Hypothesis

Ho: The impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the teaching and learning process of STEM
students at Malaybalay City National Science High School has been found to have no
Ha: The impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on the teaching and learning processes of STEM
significant.
STEM students at Maylaybalay City National Science High School studying physical
education will take part in this research to see how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected
their ability to learn. The present generalization would make a significant difference in our
understanding of how students learn. The outcome of the study is relevant to the following:
STEM Students: It is expected that participants in this study will be aware of and
Parents: They may have some insight into the situations that their children are in and
Future Researchers: People who want to do research about the Covid-19 pandemic
and how it affects students' education will find this study to be a good place to start.
The locale of the research is Maylaybalay City National Science High School, Town,
Students' viewpoints on the impact of COVID-19 on the learning process, as well as the
major changes in the learning process as a result of the issue will be explored and
The study uses simple random sampling in choosing the participants, and the
researchers have estimated 50% STEM students at Maylaybalay City National Science High
School as respondents will be surveyed. This study uses a quantitative research design.
