- Abstract
Background. Online PBL tutorials were conducted to comply with social distance requirements during the Covid-19 pandemic. Critical incidents (CIs) due to the new learning environment may cause group dysfunctionality. Data of CIs based on student’s perception was necessary for evaluation purposes, especially due to the unknown ending of the pandemic. Method. The questionnaire in google-form format was self-assigned by 249 students of The Faculty of Medicine, Jenderal Soedirman University, Batch 2017-2019. The first part of the questionnaire consisted of 44 examples of 6 CI factors adopted from previous studies that used offline tutorial context. Respondents were asked to identify the frequency of occurrence of each CI. They may report other CIs, especially those related to the online nature of the tutorial. The second part of the questionnaire asked the respondents to identify the CI factor that was the most frequently happened, the most disturbing to the task and group functioning, and the most needed tutor intervention. Result. Most students reported that 34 out of 44 critical incidents never happened. “Challenged by the tutorial-trying hardly to search for and answer all of the learning issues” was always, almost always, and not always happened. Most students perceived that: the participation imbalance was the most frequently happened; lack of interaction was the most disturbing to the task functioning as well as to the group functioning and the lack of motivation was the most needed tutor intervention. Issues related to the online nature of the tutorial were mostly related to the unstable internet connection and the disadvantages of using different discussion platforms. Conclusion and recommendation. The CIs reported are quite similar to the offline context. PBL tutorial development programs may be prioritized on the CI factors that need attention. A similar study based on the tutor’s perception is needed to complement the analysis.
