Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed learning patterns, especially in the field of academic writing. The characteristics of students being autonomous learners are essential to survive in a disruptive period, especially in education. This study aims to determine students’ perceptions regarding independent learner attitudes. Sequential mixed-method was used in this study using descriptive analysis and narrative inquiry. Participants involved in this research were students from a university in Papua. The results of data analysis show that students have an awareness of the importance of being independent learners even though they still feel comfortable relying on lecturers to explain in learning. This research implies that the University must issue policies to maintain quality standards of learning to create conditions for students to become independent learners.
