- Abstract
During the COVID-19 pandemic, learning from home was a new strategy implemented to ensure the teaching and learning process continued. Even though e-learning is accessible in universities, many academicians are not ready to implement it. This study aims to analyze the difficulties students face in implementing learning strategies from home during these social and physical restrictions. Through a basic qualitative research design, data collected through online questionnaire distribution techniques to 100 respondents was taken as a purposive random sample and analyzed with analytic induction techniques. The results showed that in implementing e-learning during the pandemic, students experienced two significant difficulties. First is the difficulty that comes from the pandemic, i.e., the lack of funds to buy internet data, unstable internet network, having the responsibility to help parents, and no internet access. Second are personal difficulties caused by physical and psychological fatigue, slow devices response to run e-learning applications, and difficulty understanding the material. This condition indicates that students face high pressure in implementing e-learning during the COVID-19 pandemic.
