- Abstract
During the Covid-19 outbreaks, the teaching and learning practice in Indonesia has been implemented in online setting to prevent the spread of the disease, and study from home using digital technology as promoted in Education 4.0 became a burning issue. The mainly purpose of the study is to investigate the views of Indonesian undergraduate EFL learners in online learning implementation during the Covid-19 outbreaks. Data were collected through online interview, involving 6 participants and analysed by using thematic analysis. The findings of the study revealed that Indonesian undergraduate EFL students consciously realize that study from home and using online learning is the best way during covid-19 outbreaks. Also, they reported that they faced several obstacles to online learning during the pandemic such as lack of knowledge and skills in online learning, unstable internet connection, and the teachers’ limited experience with online learning. Besides, the findings of the study revealed that implementing online learning contributes more on students’ learner autonomy. The results of the current study are hoped can stimulate further discussion in order to overcome online learning barriers by considering the importance of learners’ voice.
