The condition of the COVID-19 pandemic that has occurred in various
countries, including Indonesia, has led to several policy changes that require its
citizens to follow various existing changes to prevent the spread of the virus.
Changes in existing policies also have an impact on the education system in
Indonesia. Teaching and learning which initially required students to learn directly
at school with their teachers and friends are now learning that requires them to
study online at their respective homes. Then it is also known that in the current
conditions, although there has been a decrease in the spread of the virus and a
policy change has also been given by alternating online and offline learning for
students to enter the post-pandemic world where the pandemic has begun to
decrease but has not completely disappeared. This situation make teachers look
for ways so that the learning provided can be absorbed well by the students.
Various learning methods are applied, one of them is autonomy learning for
students.
The researcher applied the research on exploring the autonomy learning
aims to find out how teachers and students apply the learning, especially in online
learning. It presented four three steps of data analysis procedures: data reduction
(selecting the data and then writing it by a written transcript), data display
(description of existing data), and drawing conclusions on the data obtained.
The results of this research showed that the use of autonomy learning
provided by the teacher in learning is by providing explanations and assignments
which are given to students through Google Classroom and after that students will
be given the opportunity to study it themselves with their own learning method
then it will be evaluated to see how far the progress of students in learning. Then,
the learner autonomy, showed that students have different ways of learning so that
they can study comfortably at home when online learning time, and there are
showed 4 factors that can affect learner autonomy: motivation, teachers,
assignments, and the environment, but it is also known that students not only feel
comfortable with the learning but also feel less motivated because they are
constrained by understanding the given material.
