Abstract

The covid-19 pandemic leaves educators around the globe with no choice other than to shift from in-class learning mode to online learning mode. This is a promising situation, as online learning become a new custom in many countries education systems, bringing solutions to the difficulty of students’ mobility during and post-pandemic. However, the adaptation to a new learning mode always encounters many challenges, in various aspects, including challenges faced at the university level in Indonesia. English language learning is no exception. This research, therefore, was intended to explore the issues concerning the implementation of Technology-Enhanced Language Learning (TELL) in an English Education Department in Indonesia. A qualitative approach was employed utilizing surveys and a focus group discussion involving the English Education lecturers and students. The results of the research, based on the surveys, showed that the obstacles in a good online learning environment were mostly technical which resulted in poor interactions that occurred in the classroom. Despite that, in the focus group discussion, participants believed that online learning was still needed in the post-pandemic time through the blended-learning method for richer learning experiences, especially by utilizing the Learning Management System (LMS) that was already available at the university. In terms of technology, regarding this new shift, the participants expect the learning media to be user-friendly, follow the working system of the human brain and body, and can facilitate learning needs. Moreover, special training on utilizing the media was also reportedly needed.
