| Summary: | The pandemic has caused the closure of educational institutions, which halted face-to-face teaching and
learning. The unprecedented situation has left the institutions with no other choice other than implementing
online learning to ensure the educational process's continuity. This study examines students' perceptions in
Introduction to Drama and Theatre online classes. Three components of perceptions were investigated: the
experience in learning the subject online, students' participation in the class, and the materials used in online
classes. The quantitative data were collected from 38 first-year students enrolling in the Drama and Theatre
programme at UNIMAS. The questionnaire was distributed online using Google Form. The findings
showed a positive perception of learning Introduction to Drama and Theatre online, while moderate
perception was identified in students' participation in the class. A positive perception was also seen in the
materials and platforms used in online classes. Most of the students enjoyed the learning process due to the
support from the lecturer. Moving forward, better infrastructure is needed in order to ensure the ability to conduct online learning without any obstacles. All stakeholders are responsible for playing their role to
contribute to the online learning environment |
