Online Distance Learning Tips During Spread Corona COVID-19


The spread of the corona virus pandemic or COVID-19 in Indonesia caused many universities and schools to stop the process of face-to-face learning. Instead, learning is done remote or remote learning.

Minister of Education and Culture (Mendikbud) Nadiem Makarim also seeks to build cooperation with various parties that focus on developing online education systems. The application of online learning requires readiness for both parties, both from the education service provider or from the students themselves. However, online and distance learning requires the help of qualified and easily accessible technology.

In addition, students must also be prepared to adapt to changes in learning that are governed by schools and universities. Remote learning can be seen more freely and flexibly accessed from home. How can online and distance learning be done effectively? The Appleinsider page lists the following tips:

Establish Time Management Organize your study time regularly. Work with the focus of the task assigned by the teacher or lecturer. This is easier to do if the school or university limits the online access schedule to its students.

This will be different if the education service provider gives full flexibility to students. Students must arrange their own learning schedules. For people who are not accustomed to independent learning, will usually do school or college assignments at the last minute deadline set.

Therefore, getting used to learning and doing assignments early in time is a skill that must be instilled in students who are doing remote learning.

Prepare the Technology Needed Students or students must know what equipment is needed to do distance learning. Not all campuses already provide adequate online learning services, therefore several online learning platforms can be an alternative. Likewise technological tools such as computers, smart devices or tablets are important, and especially internet-worthy networks.

Learn with Serious Mistakes that are often made by students, as reported by Psychology Today is not focused when doing remote learning. During learning on the internet, there are a lot of distractions that interfere with the learning process.

The temptation to watch videos, access social media, to read news content impulsively is often done without prior plans. Therefore, it is important for students to try to focus and be consistent during the specified study time. Avoid all kinds of distractions that have the potential to interfere with the learning process.

If possible, set aside special spaces for learning and distance yourself from other family members' distractions. Maintain Communication with Teachers and Classmates For those who are not accustomed to doing remote learning, he must adjust to be constantly visible and communicate responsive with other teachers or classmates.

If needed, a special group should also be held to discuss the tasks assigned by the instructor. Although it does not have to be done face-to-face, communication must be well established to avoid misunderstanding. Use moments like this to hone your online communication skills. If you are not sure of the results of the work being done, immediately contact your teacher.

Do it as soon as possible to show commitment that you are serious about learning. As reported by Appleinsider, although many students find it difficult to do remote learning, if they are accustomed to it, this instead gives their own freedom and flexibility, which is not found in teaching and learning activities in the classroom. In the midst of the spread of the COVID-19 corona virus, online learning like this can actually be an effective alternative to direct face-to-face class meetings.
