| Summary: | The inclusion of physical education in the curriculum in the new normal, and with the mandate on the adoption of flexible learning at the tertiary level caused by the Covid-19 pandemic forced physical educators to do quaranteaching or teaching in the quarantine. This study described the lived experiences of physical education (PE) teachers in quaranteaching utilizing Edmund Husserl’s phenomenological qualitative research design. A total of seven PE teachers from two universities participated in this study which achieved data saturation. Anchored to Colaizzi’s phenomenological approach and guided by different philosophies, data were analyzed and presented in two prong clustering. The results revealed that tertiary PE teachers experienced difficulties and yet learnt to innovate in terms of teaching the course, assessing, monitoring, and giving feedback to students, dealing with the internet and technology, and handling physical and cognitive situations. It is recommended that tertiary PE teachers undergo pedagogical and technological trainings and workshops especially in the utilization of different learning platforms to help them improve their pedagogy and in the innovative use of digital tools and technologies to teach PE in the new normal digitaliness |
