The Covid-19 pandemic gives an impact on education field. The face-to-face learning pattern in schools has shifted to distance learning which is carried out online. The implementation of online learning during the pandemic forces a digital transformation in education, causing several problems, two of which are technology and human resources. This article discusses the appropriate online learning strategies to use during a pandemic, especially for synchronous interaction models. Qualitative research with a narrative approach was used to explore teachers' experiences in learning, especially those related to the form of interaction between teachers and students during the Covid-19 pandemic. Active learning was chosen based on the results of observations and literature review through journal articles and proceedings that discuss interactive distance learning methods. Active learning strategies assisted by video conferencing applications that can be applied in online learning in elementary schools include: the use of Student Response Systems; Think Pair Share; One Minute Paper; Small Group Discussion; and Short Student Presentations.

In-class and online active learning strategies, which have been implemented at The University of Sydney, are described to respond to the challenge of teaching chemistry at a first year level, to students with a wide range of abilities and levels of motivations. Core to the design of these activities is the belief that students learn chemical concepts most effectively when they are actively engaged in doing and talking, rather than rote learning and listening. The strategies described have been developed within the context of large classes and limited resources. They are fully adaptable to other topics beyond first chemistry and to other sciences. They are also necessarily designed to be scalable to large or small classes and to be sustainable. Online resources are useful for helping students become familiar with chemical language and symbolism and to provide them with a means of practicing their use. Online quizzes are an invaluable means of students self-assessing their progress and of providing meaningful assessment of their level of mastery. In-class activities involving student response systems and student-centred, inquiry based approaches are built around active learning and on-going formative assessment. To develop language skills, social interaction via peer instruction and group discussions can be utilized to ensure that classes are vibrant and engaging.

This research is motivated by the Covid-19 pandemic in Indonesia which has an impact on the economic inequality of society and also the impact of education which hinders the learning process. This has led to a new learning method called online learning or distance learning which is now being implemented by the government. Students are required to take online learning because the Covid-19 pandemic does not allow students to take face-to-face learning with the teacher. The purpose of this study is to analyze online learning in Upper Middle School Students in the Mranggen District. The method used in this research is the descriptive qualitative method. Test the validity of the data using validity and credibility tests. The data analysis used is reduction, display data, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results of this study indicate that online learning or distance learning has many advantages and disadvantages experienced by students, parents, and physical education teachers in SMA Mranggen District. In its strength, students know more about information technology or what is called IT. The drawback of online learning itself is that the limited facilities and infrastructure that are owned by the teacher and students make learning less optimal. The conclusion of this research is that research can get results that the Covid-19 pandemic has advantages and disadvantages of online learning from Physical Education and Health in Mranggen District.

The damage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in the field of education on a global scale has caused many school closures worldwide and prevented many students from benefitting from the educational services in a limited way. In order to overcome this situation, educational institutions had to switch to distance education applications. This study provides a roadmap and aims to identify teaching and learning activities in an online learning environment considering the learning outcomes to ensure the quality assurance with the basis of SMART goals and “Gagne's Events of Instruction” model by including active learning strategies. Assessments were completed by the alternative approaches, such as self-evaluation, peer evaluation, and evaluation by the instructor. Finally, based on the identified scenarios, an eclectic model of scenario which is called “FlipHyb” is presented.

The current Covid-19 pandemic has had a very broad impact on the joints of life, including in the field of education. So that the government implements a Distance Learning policy or online. This is to break the chain of the spread of the corona virus in schools and universities. This change in the education system makes it difficult for students to accept and understand the material presented, because learning which is usually carried out in person or face-to-face has turned into Distance Learning or is carried out online, whose implementation cannot be separated by utilizing information technology. This study aims to describe the Learning Strategy of SMA Muhammadiyah 4 Porong in the Middle of the Covid-19 Pandemic. This research was conducted on high school students in Sidoarjo Regency. In the research process this time using descriptive qualitative research methods. The learning strategy applied by SMA Muhammadiyah 4 Porong during the pandemic was to use 2 learning methods, namely online learning methods and offline learning methods. The online learning method is done by communicating via WhatsApp, the teacher provides material or assignments via WhatsApp messages in the form of text, video, and powerpoint. And still comply with the health protocol for students who take offline or offline learning. However, this kind of learning technique is important to evaluate, considering the ability of parents to provide online learning facilities. Technology has a very big role to facilitate educators in delivering learning materials so that learning can continue even though it cannot be done face-to-face. In the implementation of online learning, there are obstacles that are a challenge for educators, related to academics, as well as the readiness of facilities and infrastructure related to technology.

AbstractAlthough political science instructors increasingly recognize the advantages of incorporating active learning activities into their teaching, simulations remain the discipline's most commonly used active learning method. While certainly a useful strategy, simulations are not the only way to bring active learning into classrooms. Indeed, because students have diverse learning styles—comprised of their discrete learning preferences—engaging them in a variety of ways is important. This article explores six active learning techniques: simulations, case studies, enhanced lectures, large group discussion, small group work, and in-class writing. Incorporating these activities into an introductory, writing-intensive seminar on globalization and surveying students about their engagement with course activities, I find that different activities appeal to students with different learning preferences and that simulations are not students most preferred activity. Bringing a broader range of active learning strategies into courses can improve teaching for all students, no matter their learning style.

Courses in physiology engage students through active learning strategies including small group discussions, group work, and opportunities to explore a scientific problem and explain their findings. Many of these active learning exercises take place in tutorial and laboratory settings. Unfortunately, traditional physiology lectures are often limited to conveying information through lecturing and PowerPoint slides. This approach provides little opportunity for student engagement above lower-order cognition, i.e., writing notes, listening, memorization (Freeman et al. 2014). Student response systems (e.g., clickers) are a valuable tool to facilitate active learning in the lecture setting that could enable students to take control of their learning (“Do I truly understand this topic/concept/theory?”) (Hwang, Wong, Lam & Lam 2015). In addition, clickers provide valuable instant feedback to the lecturer about student comprehension, and can be used to track participation and attendance. Many platforms are now available including clicker devices and virtual clickers to facilitate active learning and meta-cognitive exercises in the lecture setting. Student feedback response platforms may provide a way to introduce active learning into the lecture setting with physiology lectures resulting improved engagement and better achievement of learning outcomes. This workshop provides practical strategies and examples to help instructors evaluate the benefits, challenges, and methods of integrating student response systems into the physiology lecture setting.
