Investigating the challenges of conducting virtual chemistry teaching practice from the perspective of lecturer supervisors

This study is to investigate the challenges of conducting teaching practice of in a virtual way, and express practical solutions for it. This research is based on qualitative data research method. For this purpose, based on purposeful sampling, 15 lecturer supervisors who had teaching practices experience in face-to-face and virtually participated in this study. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect information. Data analysis was done based on the theory based on systematic data. Improving the software and hardware infrastructure of online platforms, better interaction between teacher supervisors and lecturer supervisors, reducing the number of activities, not emphasizing the 5E teaching method and using other constructivist methods that are more compatible with online education, familiarizing student-teachers with appropriate teaching strategies, designing a learning unit, and producing appropriate content for the space virtual were some of the things that were suggested to improve the implementation of educational activities in the process of action research and lesson study.
