Abstract

Online learning has become a necessity and is fascinating to develop during the Covid-19 Pandemic. However, numerous students' opinions stated that online education would be boring if the lecturers merely applied monotonous methods from the beginning to the end of the semester. It caused students to be less motivated to take lectures seriously. Up to now, students mostly join their classes through Teams Meet or zoom only to fulfill their attendance. This study aims to determine the students' learning motivation and provides alternative solutions for a more enjoyable learning process during the pandemic. The writers recommend several alternative explanations for learning English and designing engaging online learning. The methodology employed is descriptive qualitative, which analyses the data by explaining the problems using words, not statistics. The participants were 45 UKI students who contributed their opinion by answering some questions concerning their last semester online learning. One of the results indicated that 90 percent of the students were less motivated to participate in each lesson using Teams Meet or Zoom because the learning was less varied. The researchers give alternative solutions from these findings by adding various learning models, both synchronous and asynchronous. Keywords: Online learning, pandemic, synchronous, motivation
