Abstract

During the COVID-19 pandemic, student learning activities with respect to learning interest gradually decreased. This is due to the implementation of distance/online learning. As a result, various efforts are needed to increase students' learning motivation in every learning activity. In an effort to improve the learning process, this study aims to describe the application of educators’ roles (didactic, reflective, affective roles) and to find out the inhibiting factors faced by educators (didactic, reflective, affective roles) to enhance motivation to learn social science during the Covid-19 pandemic. The approach used in this study was a descriptive qualitative approach. The data sources in this study included primary sources and secondary sources. The primary source was interviews with social science teachers at Islamic secondary schools (MTs) in Sumbergempol District, Tulungagung. Meanwhile, secondary sources were the documents obtained at the research sites. These data were collected by conducting observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that: (1) The applications of educators’ roles (didactic, reflective, affective roles) to enhance motivation to learn social science during the Covid-19 pandemic are as follows: in applying the didactic role, the educators used learning resources such as textbooks and worksheets. The technique to deliver the materials was summarizing the materials in the form of Word/PDF or explaining the materials through voice notes. The instructional media used by the educators were pictures, WhatsApp, E-learning, and Google Forms. In applying the reflective role, the educators implemented the scientific learning approach. The methods used by the eudcators varied such as the lecture, question and answer, and assignment methods. The instructional models adopted by the educators were discovery learning and problem-based learning. In addition, the educators conducted evaluations at the beginning or at the end of learning to determine the level of success. In applying the affective role, the educators provided good examples and continuous advice. They also sometimes gave threats or even punishments so that students can learn their lesson. (2) The inhibiting factors faced by the educators to enhance motivation to learn social science during the Covid-19 pandemic were the internal factors including lack of learning interest and difficulty in understanding the material. Meanwhile, the external factors were financial constraints and inadequate school facilities.
