Abstract

The Covid-19 outbreak has caused a paradigm shift in learning at all levels of Education in Indonesia and other countries in the world. During learning from home, everyone is forced to do learning within a network. Survey research has been carried out to portray the implementation of government policy related to the curriculum in Covid-19 period, with a focus on science learning at secondary school level. The respondent were 97 students and 10 science teachers carrying out learning form home (LFH). The questionnaires were made for student and teacher and distributed through Google Form. The research shows that the online science learning was mostly conducted via WhatsApp as a main learning media. Video streaming media such as video meeting was not often used due to the limited internet quota. Teachers had conducted meaningful science learning that attributed life skills on how to avoid the Covid-19 contagion, and more than 90% indicators of learning had been achieved by student. In Student opinion, only a half of science learning provided activities suitable to the student interests. Additionally, most of learning (97%) only gave multiple-choice assignments for practice. However, online learning was still demanded by student and they actively participated in learning (88.7%). Nevertheless, not all of student were happy with the online learning due to the difficulties in understanding the subject (69.1%), the difficulties in finalizing the task (61.9%), and the teachers’ delivery during online class (87.6%). These findings suggest that face-to-face interaction was still favorable, hence blended learning is seen to be a better option in learning science.
