Abstract

Blended learning is one of the learning methods implemented in universities after the Covid-19 outbreak. Blended learning is implemented by combining learning carried out face-to-face (offline) with learning carried out online (online). The aim of this research is to determine students' perceptions of blended learning that they have experienced previously. The method used in this research is a qualitative method using an open-ended questionnaire. The number of subjects involved in this research was 227 students. The data obtained in this research used thematic analysis techniques using N-Vivo software. The results of the research show that there are three themes that emerge regarding student perceptions regarding blended learning, namely learning experiences, social support (interaction), and learning flexibility. The findings of this research also show that students have a positive perception of blended learning, but students prefer learning in face-to-face (offline) sessions compared to learning conducted online. Face-to-face learning is considered more interactive compared to learning during online sessions. However, combining these two methods becomes a learning method that is considered effective and provides many benefits for students.
