Abstract

The purpose of this study was to profile the teaching strategies in the implementation of the COVID-19 curriculum as a chance to improve the health literacy of high school students. The descriptive study was conducted, with two questionnaires were designed as instruments and separately made for teachers and students, and completed by interview. The surveys were prepared in Google Form and distributed to teachers and students via WhatsApp. A total of 305 students and 34 teachers participated in this study. The research shows that although the Covid-19 Curriculum has been implemented in science learning, it has not had a good impact on students’ health literacy. This impact is because of the weak strategy of teachers in online learning implementation. As many as 18.2% of teachers used virtual face-to-face learning to discuss the subject matter; meanwhile, 81.8% of teachers learned students only through online assignments without virtuals meetings. This condition leads to the lower literary thinking skills of students who have to develop as a base for enhancing student health literacy.
