Abstract

This study aims to reveal the transformation of offline learn-ing to online learning due to Covid-19 in student perceptions. The massive impact on the education sector requires the provision of education to adapt to situations and conditions. This research was conducted at one of the state universities in Indonesia, with the selection of informants based on the rep-resentation of each department at the university. The method in this re-search uses a narrative approach. The data were collected through interviews that were set up online. The research data was processed based on the results of studies and focus group discussions (FGD) related to the implementation of online learning during the Covid-19 Pandemic. The results showed that the implementation of learning was welcomed by the students, in their per-ception that online learning was considered to be more flexible, efficient and effective in the use of time as well as in terms of costs and energy. It cannot be denied that the implementation of online learning still encounters various obstacles and challenges, including: interaction is not optimal, schedule and lecture estimates change, inadequate facilities, and the use of learning media is not optimal.

Highlights

The education sector in Indonesia has experienced a transformation of learning, from face-to-face learning to technology-based learning (IT)
The results of this research is an evaluation of the education transformation before a pandemic covid-19, towards fully online learning based on student perceptions
Online learning is considered to have flexibility in managing student learning spaces, but it will be a weakness if there is no will from within each individual

Summary

Introduction

The education sector in Indonesia has experienced a transformation of learning, from face-to-face learning to technology-based learning (IT). The rapid change brings anxiety to both educators and students and there is ambiguity about the implications of online learning for educational equality in general [4]. They have to change the learning contract that is applied since the first meet in the classroom, and in the end, the implementation of learning through evaluation of learning must be changed completely. The implementation of learning before the pandemic is considered too rigid or less flexible and only depends on certain conditions, as if during the outbreak of this virus, many education providers and stakeholders in it are not ready for a different learning model, which requires full online learning
