Cognitive Perspective of Teachers: It’s Repercussion to Educators Instructional Competence

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on people's life all across the world, changing a number of professions, including education. The Commission on Higher Education and the Department of Education in the Philippines have both suggested that professors use a variety of teaching strategies to guarantee that students continue to learn in the face of these difficulties. This study focuses on evaluating teachers' thinking processes throughout the epidemic and looking at how that affected their ability to teach. The study investigates the relationship between instructors' thinking styles and their effectiveness as teachers using Sternberg's Thinking Styles Inventory (1997). The computed findings show that responders have a variety of thought processes, and there is a strong correlation between different cognitive stances. Interestingly, the research shows a relationship between instructors' thought processes and their methods of instruction. To sum up, these results provide a solid framework upon which to build a customized development program. With the help of this curriculum, educators will be able to develop their cognitive views and gain the tools they need to deal with the current pandemic in the field of education.
