E-Learning During Covid-19 Pandemic

The traditional learning method has been interrupted by the Covid-19 Pandemic, but a strategy is required to solve these questions. Online learning is a viable option for resolving this problem. The aim of this study was to get a summary of how online learning was implemented in the English Education Study Program at Faculty of Teacher Training and Education University of Muhammadiyah Enrekang in order to combat the spread of covid-19 in tertiary institutions. The test participants were members of the English Education Study Program. Data was collected by interview via zoom cloud meeting. The interactive analysis technique of Miles and Huberman was used to analyze the data. The findings revealed that: students also have the basic facilities required to participate in online learning; online learning is flexible in its implementation and may encourage independent learning and motivation to be more involved in learning; and distance learning encourages the emergence of social distancing behavior and minimizes the appearance of student crowds, making it a more effective method of learning. Weak monitoring of students, lack of signal power in distant regions, and heavy quota fees are obstacles to online learning. Other benefits of online learning include increased independence, curiosity and inspiration, and the courage to propose ideas and concerns.
