This phenomenological study centered on exploring the lived experiences of teachers of Juban District amidst high heat index and their resilience in the delivery of instruction. It utilized a qualitative approach in examining the data from the twenty participants who were selected through the convenience sampling technique. Significantly, the researcher categorized the various themes that emerged from participants' responses. These themes aided the researcher in coming up with pertinent and useful concepts regarding teachers’ perceptions and experiences regarding HHI and its impact primarily on the learners’ acquisition of knowledge and teachers’ delivery of instruction.
In the same manner, the researcher sorted the data accordingly based on six concepts mainly, the impact of a high heat index on the delivery of instruction, strategies employed by teachers to manage the physical and emotional stresses associated with teaching HHI, ways on how teachers adapt their instructional methods to maintain student engagement and learning outcomes during periods of extreme heat, the role played by support systems and community dynamics in helping teachers cope with the challenges of HHI, the influence of teachers’ experiences with high heat conditions on their overall well-being and professional resilience and the mitigating measures employed by teachers during HHI to continue meeting classroom instructions. Moreover, the emerging themes were the foundations for the development of findings, conclusions, and recommendations of this recent study.
Furthermore, to collect data from the participants the researcher crafted guide questions which were utilized during the conduct of in-person interviews and focus-group discussions. These processes were religiously observed to ensure the validity and reliability of the results.
