Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic era has led and changed a variety of life settings, including the world of education and learning. Face-to-face learning in class is no longer possible and changes into online-based distance learning. Microteaching class is no exception. The lecturer now must change the way to see the skills of how students teach, manage classes, ask questions, provide reinforcement, use variations, guide small groups, open and close the class. Yet, changing the conditions does not change the essence and content of the core goals of lectures.
This research aims to develop online-based Microteaching learning in improving basic teaching skills in the era of covid-19 pandemic. In addition, it aims to find out the stages of activities that students must pass in making microteaching class happen.
This research applied the Research and Development method from Borg and Gall which includes ten steps, namely: 1) gathering information through both literature and field studies; 2) planning; 3) initial product development; 4) initial trials; 5) revision of initial trial results; 6) final trials; 7) product revisions; 8) due diligence; 9) the final revision of the feasibility test results; and 10) implementation and dissemination. This is done to determine the effectiveness and efficiency of the model.
The research results showed that the development of online-based Microteaching learning in improving basic teaching skills in the Covid-19 era was needed by the student-teachers. Structurally, this learning model is feasible, relevant, and in accordance with the rules of developing learning models, both in terms of substance, and the structure of the model. Based on the results of the trials with experimental research designs (experimental and control classes), online-based Microteaching model is effective to be used to improve basic teaching skills.
