Abstract

Public policy, especially in the educational field, is essential to protect life in society. Public policy is closely related to government administration that aims to obtain public values, both related to public goods and public services. These values are needed to improve the life quality of both physical and non-physical. During the current pandemic, policies taken in the education field are essential to be addressed wisely in policy-making and its application. Physical distancing implemented in the COVID-19 pandemic has an impact on the students’ learning quality and the implantation of educational values that shared responsibility between parents and teachers with a full comparison of time and space around parents. Independence and various innovations emerge using makeshift resources. This cultural change in virtual learning is the main objective of this paper. The qualitative research method collects data through in-depth interviews with several students, parents, and teachers as interviewees. This study found that the Indonesia Government has done several public policies by eliminating final examinations on necessary education students in primary education. Physical distancing is prioritized to break the corona virus’s spread chain and not provide a new burden of quality testing to obtain general standards. However, there are some changes in the significant values implantation that arise; families and educators are not only as friends and parents in learning but also as “healers” for each other of psychological factors that occur due to an outbreak.
