In this Covid-19 pandemic has big impacts for all sectors. 11 February 2020 WHO (world health organization) said Covid-19 is a new virus from Wuhan, China. It claims for all counties to pay attention to this virus. In Indonesia, the government decided to make a rule about social distancing. Schools, public places, and all of the activities have limited. Teaching and learning move in daring or online learning. It makes a solution for learning when this situation (corona pandemic). According to some teachers, this system is just effective to give homework or assignment for students. They think that learning is more effective in a conventional system. Some theories should teach face to face so they can more understand and the teacher knows what the students need and their weakness in the lesson. Rosyida Qonita one of the teachers in MTs Ma'ahid Kudus explained that she assumes to teach the conventional system.
"In terms of effectiveness, it is very different from KBM directly, because the material is not understood by all students," Qanita said.
However, we have been doing it for several months. Of course, it has many controversies (pro or contra). Moreover, this system is unpredictable for all schools. Many teachers and students have difficulties when they do this system.
The students who have good facilities such as hand-phone, internet data, signal, etc. They can access the technology easily but for other students maybe they cannot use it especially for remote areas or poor students. It can make social gaps and unfairness to get well education. All students have different styles in learning (visual, kinesthetic, auditory). So they have to adjust to the new system.
However online learning has a positive impact such as the students and teachers know how to use technology, the learning process becomes more relaxed, paying attention to the deadlines on assignments, sending assignments on time, we have more time for learning.
Some respondents, regarding the learning model in the network (online learning) many say that the learning model in the network is less effective in the Covid-19 pandemic because they are not familiar with distance learning and more comfortable with a conventional system. However, we should try our best with this learning.
