Summary
Berbagai studi yang lebih detail juga telah dilakukan terkait dengan kekurangan pembelajaran online dan pengalaman siswa mengikuti pembelajaran online. Pembelajaran online tentu tidak sepenuhnya bermuatan negatif, beberapa penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa siswa cukup aktif dalam mengerjakan aktivitas seperti download materi, mengerjakan kuis, latihan soal dan mengikuti diskusi (Ratnasari, 2012). Pembelajaran melalui video di tengah pandemi cenderung lebih efektif dibandingkan pembelajaran dengan zoom dan platform lainnya karena selain alasan efektivitas, siswa merasa mandiri dan mudah mengakses video di Youtube dibandingkan harus menyiapkan paket data yang cukup untuk mengikuti kelas di zoom, google meet atau platform video conference lainnya. Penelitian yang lain juga mengkonfirmasi efektifitas pembelajaran secara online dengan media yang bervariasi dapat meningkatkan keaktifan siswa karena mereka mengakut bahwa belajar secara online dengan berbagai media pendukung seperti video dan variasi media pembelajaran lain tidak monoton.
