ABSTRACT
This study explores the experiences of physical education teachers in assessing students’ performance in an online learning amidst COVID-19 pandemic. Physical Education teachers from junior high school, senior high school, and select institutions of higher education expressed the challenges they encountered, along with the coping mechanisms they employed in teaching-learning process. A semi-structured interview was utilized to gather qualitative data and was analyzed using the Tesch’s method and thematic analysis. Qualitative findings from interview were merged into five themes. Results revealed that students’ performance assessment in an online distance learning comes with video presentation while the predominant challenge is late submission of outputs and follow-up discussion as coping mechanism. Thus, monitoring intervention was crafted to ensure a reliable, accurate and on-point assessment methods and feedback.
