- Abstract
Covid-19 is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered type of coronavirus. The impact of the Covid-19 virus occurs in various fields, one of which is education. To control the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic, the learning process becomes online learning. Online learning cannot separate from the internet network. An internet network was one of the problems faced by students who live in rural or isolated areas, they could not access the internet. The purpose of this study was to determine the teachers’ agency in implementing the learning with less supportive facilities and infrastructure during the Covid-19 pandemic. The subject of this research is the students of SD Punik, Sumbawa Besar. The type of research is qualitative research. The data were collected by survey and interview. Data analysis was collected by using the interactive analysis technique. In obtaining accuracy in this research, the researcher used triangulation techniques. (1) The teacher delivered and explained the material and student assignments through the walkie-talkie; (2) Using the walkie-talkie media was cheaper than using the internet network because the students did not buy the internet quota every learning time and also the smartphones; (3) Learning from home could reduce the crowded at school and defeating the spread of Covid-19. Learning by using a walkie-talkie was successful and effective because it improved students’ learning abilities and motivation, and stabilized the learning process.
