Abstract:
This study aims to identify and obtain information about the
effectiveness of the implementation of online lectures during the
COVID-19 pandemic at Higher Education Institutions, especially at
President University. Data was collected by looking at the results of
student satisfaction assessments of lecturers during the teaching
and learning process, namely in the PUIS (President University
Information System) system in the "Lecturing Evaluation" menu.
The research uses quantitative methods and data analysis using
SPSS software with Two Way Anova analysis. After the data were
analyzed, the researcher approached using online interviews with
12 lecturers, to dig deeper information about online and offline
lectures. The results of this study are that there is a significant
difference in satisfaction between offline and online lectures, namely,
when offline class students can get knowledge directly without
any technical constraints and face-to-face teaching and learning
process there are values that can be taken such as the process of
social, cultural, ethical maturity and morals that can only be found
in the area of education. In contrast to online lectures, apart from
technical constraints such as the unsupported internet, online classes
make students lose motivation to learn because of the absence of
chemistry. There are different characteristics in each faculty, this
is a challenge for lecturers to explore their abilities and provide
new knowledge, and of course, it can be well accepted by students.
Online classes will run more effectively if lecturers and students
can collaborate and communicate well and make the best use of
technology.
