Abstract

This study examined the phenomenon of learning loss that occurs due to school closures during the COVID-19 situation. Some previous studies have predicted severe learning loss due to this pandemic. This research reveals the evidence of learning loss in high school and how schools anticipate it so that learning loss does not get worse. The research method used in this study is a qualitative research method. The data collected were in the form of observation, interviews, and analysis of documents. The participants in this study were 36 10th-grade students in the same class, the mathematics teacher, and the principal. This research was conducted during one semester. It shows that 60% of students experience learning loss on the topics of function and triangles, which they should have completed when they were in junior high school. To respond to the test results, the teacher made changes in learning methods and added a recommended resource. The principal introduced several new school programs to increase student interest and creativity in welcoming students to school. With these programs, schools make full efforts to restore students’ enthusiasm for learning at school and the teacher changed her teaching methods in order to facilitate students learning in uncertain conditions.
