Abstract:
Experts believe that the success of education is closely related to the
existence of technology that is adopted into the learning process. The
reseachers examined many scientific reports highlighting online learning
approaches before the Covid-19 issue hit education to prove this belief.
The researchers look for evidence of literature studies from international
studies that have succeeded in sounding out educational operations by
optimizing technology as a face-to-face companion learning method
when students study in class. The data retrieval method is carried out
with electronic assistance systems on databases of publication journals
such as ERIC, Google Books, Taylor & France, and Sagepub. Next,
reseachers analyzed the data using a review system that started with
coding and in-depth evaluation techniques and concluded data findings
that fairly and accurately answered the research questions. Based on the
discussion of the data found, researchers report that online learning
activities before the pandemic can help students become successful
learners both in the classroom and outside of school. This is highly valid
because of evidence from previous literature reviews where online
learning is juxtaposed with successful blended learning approaches.
Online learning helps students get additional self-study content. Because
with online learning, students become more practical, enjoyable,
personal, controlled, easy, efficient, focused, and measurable.
