STUDENTS' PERCEPTIONS OF ASYNCHRONOUS COMMUNICATION METHODS IN ONLINE LEARNING DURING THE PANDEMIC ERA
Abstract
This study aims to find out the views of students in implementing ASYNCHRONOUS online learning during the pandemic and what factors hinder the difficulties of teachers and students in using the ASYNCHRONOUS method in learning English during the covid-19 pandemic. The method used in this research is qualitative. The sample of this study consisted of 8th-grade students at SMPN 14 Bengkulu City. Data collection techniques were observation, interviews with class representatives via WhatsApp media, and giving questionnaires. This study shows that there are factors in technical difficulties when learning online using the ASYNCHRONOUS method, namely internal factors, and external factors. The solution to this problem requires an approach, motivation, support, and supervision from parents to students, so it is estimated that teachers and schools can increase creativity in presenting subject matter. Good interaction and communication between teachers, students, and parents are expected to increase students' motivation and interest in learning English during the current covid-19 pandemic. Keywords: ASYNCHRONOUS, students' views on online learning, difficulties.
