The purpose of this study is to gain an understanding of the teaching strategies used by lecturers in Indonesia and Malaysia during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many lecturers must consider the amount of teaching they can provide. The transition from offline to online learning, which is accompanied by extensive technological use, is extremely challenging. A survey study was designed using an online questionnaire. Thequestionnaire is including items on learning objectives, lesson materials, teaching and learning activities, learning design, media, resources, and learning evaluations. A Google form-based online questionnaire is used to collect the data. The research participants are TVET lecturers from two universities in Indonesia and Malaysia with 200 valid responses. Descriptive statistics such as frequency distribution, mean, and standard deviation are used to analyse the research data. Inferential statistics, t-test is used to investigatethe difference between two countries, Malaysia and Indonesia on the teaching strategies during the pandemic. The results show that Indonesian and Malaysian lecturers have similar preferences for lesson material, learning resources, teaching and learning activities. While learning objectives, learning design, media, and learning evaluation are all distinct and interconnected. Most Malaysian lecturers agree that online learning allows for greater teaching flexibility, more caring, and is more open to meetthe needs of students. Other than that, the t-test show no difference in teaching strategies between Malaysia and Indonesia. For the conclusion, lecturers at both universities adapt quickly to the changes that occur during each phase of the pandemic. The most effective teaching strategies are presented to ensure that educational services and processes continue to perform.

This study was designed to see the learning readiness of vocational education students who were carried out online during the Covid-19 pandemic. Vocational education which has a peculiarity is the mastery of skills, so we want to see the extent of students' readiness to carry out online learning. In a quantitative research approach with a survey method, a survey was conducted on 247 vocational education students via a google form. The collected data were analyzed, then the results of the study revealed that students were fully ready to carry out online learning, starting with digital literacy, independent learning, and communication. Overall students are ready to do online learning, Judging from the characteristics of vocational education, there is practicum material that can be handled by the use of several supporting learning media. But in controlling themselves during the learning process (learning control), students have not been able to fully control themselves during the learning process. The online learning process provides various facilities for students, but still, the teacher has a role as a guide and guides students so that the learning process is following the expected goals.

This study aims to identify student performance in Mathematics through the topic of Function using visual learning method. Case study was employed for this study and a mathematics test which composed of two questions that covered topic of Function were administered to 72 selected technical students in University Tun Hussein Malaysia. This study revealed that technical students performance in Mathematics are average to low. The result showed that 8.3% of the students answered correctly, 69.4% answers the questions half correct while the rest got below 4 marks. The most common error made by students were found to be sketch the graph based on the equation given. This study revealed that technical students have a poor visual learning method in Mathematics II. This is shows that the lecturer need to emphasize visual learning method to assist students gain more understanding of this method and applied them on the right topics in Mathematics.
