Lack of access to any device institution provided us with a laptop or desktop, and
for teaching online internet connection. But sometimes there is a
problem with internet connection, that’s why we
provide our personal internet connection."

"There are lots of platforms offered by online

Communication teaching such as google classroom, google meet,
messenger. But most of the time we are using
messenger, because it is accessible by our
students."

"I know that we have this synchronous and

to be part of synchronous classes of course we
have this asynchronous, so they can do activities in
their own time and comfort of their own place."

"I give consideration if they can present a valid
reason, they can submit or comply before the
semester ends."
"In participation during synchronous classes I am
very actively engaged by my students. I am
encouraging them to participate orally, because it is
the only way I can know if they learn. Also we have
these pre-recorded video reports so I can assess
them."
"This is the problem validating, unlike face to face
classes we can assess them, especially in major
exams. In face to face there is no chance that they
can cheat, but in online google form, it is easy to
manipulate and easy to transmit answers."
"So far I haven't experienced it. But of course it is not
the issue of internet connection, the issue is the
handful of activities. Also the amount of activities we
are facing to accreditation, meetings and so on and
so forth."
"I used all the applications that can be useful to my
students, to make it easier to communicate. In order
to have a smooth conversation with them. The only
problem is the application that is given by the
institution which is the moodle, because it is less on
exposure, unlike the google meet."

"Based on my assessment, I usually use

"There are really students who didn't show up from

usually ask for a favor. I firstly asked them why they

the class. Of course, I give them considerations

depending on their reasons. I told them that it's not

that they shouldn't practice it."

SUGGESTIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS:

"For the teachers, exploration is really helpful especially to the online community. And of

course, consideration is very important. They should give consideration to their students

because they don't know what their student's been through. And for the students, you

should still give your best even if we are in an online class and not just do it for

compliance." -Interviewee 2
