Abstract
During this pandemic, it is expected that students are to experience challenges in their learning with this new system. Thus, as a way to support themselves in their own homes, they find ways to cope that ease the weight of their challenges. According to Petroski?s theory, the impact of the sudden changes of online learning caused by the COVID-19 pandemic forced academic institutions and school faculty to try new learning set up to maintain the learning environment of the students. For many students, the sudden shift in their learning environment challenged their capability to transit from an environment that they are new (or they aren't used to) and make a new experience that contradicted themselves as learners for as they didn't have a choice to become online students. In this study, the researchers determine the different challenges the student participants are facing in this new learning system and their various ways of coping with it. The overall results of this study may benefit our educational system to be aware of the challenges the students are currently experiencing. It may help to support better and more efficient solutions for the teachers and students to fully adapt and significantly benefit and use their highest potential in learning with this new learning modality. This study employs the qualitative method to describe the challenges and coping mechanisms of the students in the Senior High School Department of LNU-ILS. In collecting and analyzing the data, A focus group discussion was held consisting of 5 student participants from the SHS department. The data gathered were then analyzed through a thematic analysis method, which yielded a significant range of challenges experienced by the senior high school students, from their personal, social, technical, and workplace challenges to various coping mechanisms with the said challenges.
