Abstract
The purpose of this research study was to identify, investigate, and share the best or most effective teaching strategies or techniques utilized by Career, Technical, Agricultural Education (CTAE) teachers in secondary schools for distance or online instruction of psychomotor intense subject matter during the COVID-19 pandemic. The methodology in this mixed methods study provided qualitative insight into a challenging phenomenon by identifying, soliciting, and engaging secondary school CTAE teachers teaching in their respective CTAE areas before, during and after the COVID-19 pandemic and well as quantitative analysis of their self-reporting surveys. The Likert Scale questionnaire delivered via the internet inquired about participants’ experiences teaching psychomotor skills and gauged teacher satisfaction with their school district's training, preparation, and support for the forced migration to distance learning. Once analyzed, the researcher identified and described suggested best practices for teaching heavy psychomotor content via distance or online learning.
