Abstract

The pandemic of Covid-19 poses various problems for teachers. This study aims to determine the challenges experienced by special education teachers in providing education for students with special needs in special schools during the limited face-to-face learning (LFL) period in the 2021/2022 academic year. The research used a survey method using Google Forms shared via social media. The research instrument was a questionnaire consisting of questions about the background and class conditions of the respondents and 32 statements regarding teacher challenges answered on a rating scale. There were 396 respondents of special education teachers from various regions in Indonesia who filled out this questionnaire. The results showed that the change from distance learning to limited face-to-face learning (LFL) poses several challenges for special education teachers in Indonesia. The results showed that as many as 76.4% of respondents experienced problems in learning evaluation, and 74.1% of teachers experienced challenges in implementing vocational learning. Then, 70% had challenges collaborating and communicating with parents, 64.4% had difficulty conducting assessments, planning and implementing learning, and 50.3% had problems teaching and implementing health protocols. Changes in the learning situation always pose challenges for teachers. Therefore, teachers need to improve their competencies and creativity.
