Abstract:
The Philippine government ordered the cessation of classes to contain the circulation of coronavirus; therefore, people had to stay at home. Here, the researchers used quantitative data analysis (QDA) with a questionnaire as the main instrument for data gathering. Findings included: the practice teachers see the extent of their essential skills with media teaching platforms as Great Performance. Their adjustment is Fair Performance. The stakeholders perceived practice teachers with Fair Performance and Minimal Performance. There is a variance between practice teachers’ and stakeholders’ perceptions in all variables such as in media teaching-learning platforms and adjustment. Therefore, an Intervention Program (IP) was crafted to help practice teachers adapt to the stakeholders’ standards. The researchers concluded that 1) practice teachers’ essential skills in the media teaching platforms are great but fair in the adjustment; 2) stakeholders’ perception of the practice teachers’ essential skills is fair and fair or minimal performance in the adjustment; and 3) the researchers did not accept the null hypothesis because there is a variance between practice teachers’ and stakeholders’ perception in all variables. Hence, the researchers recommend that 1) training and seminars on media teaching platforms be intensified; 2) adjustment or transition into teaching be enhanced; (3) an IP be implemented and evaluated regularly; and 4) interested researchers may be encouraged to replicate the study by using other means to evaluate the practice teachers’ skills on the media teaching platforms.
