ABSTRACT
The COVID-19 pandemic has an uneven and measurable impact on adaptive physical education (APE) learning given the different geographical conditions and capacities of people in Indonesia. The purpose of this study is to describe the dynamics of learning implementation in pandemic times. The methodology used in this research is descriptive with qualitative approaches and literature studies. Participants in this study were 2 APE teachers from West Java and Bali provinces in Indonesia. The interview instrument has been validated for each item through expert judgment by nine experts. The reliability of the instrument was tested with an Alpha Cronbach value of 0.913. Data analysis is done using interpretive descriptive methods, through an analysis cycle in the form of interactive cycles. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that learning has changed from before the pandemic, i.e., offline to online is considered the best solution today. But various problems and obstacles of learning APE online and distance learning (DL) appear in its implementation. Therefore, it takes knowledge about the implementation and appropriate strategies to achieve APE learning success. Therefore, this study has implications for teachers’ knowledge of implementation and strategies in achieving APE success on the DL during pandemic times. The authors suggest further researchers review the implementation and learning strategies of APE during the COVID-19 pandemic within the region and with a wider number of respondents.
