JoLLA: Journal of Language, Literature, and Arts

The integration of technology in education can be seen in the implementation of online learning. The use of online learning has also increased since the spreading of the COVID-19 pandemic. It requires an instructional process to be carried out through online learning. The use of fully online learning raises various views among students. Therefore, the study investigated EFL students' perceptions on implementing online learning in MAN 1 Jembrana, Bali. The study was conducted under a mixed method design. The study involved 286 students of Grades 11 and 12 in the academic year 2020/2021. Data were collected through a 4-point Likert-scale online questionnaire, and interviews were validated by experts. The study results reveal that online and face-to-face learning have advantages and disadvantages. The students' vocabulary, reading, and writing skills improved during online learning except pronunciation, grammar, listening, and speaking skills. Two main factors affect students' perceptions of online learning. Firstly, the internal factors that had a positive impact on students were students' motivation and awareness. Secondly, the external factors included internet access (unstable internet connection and limited internet quota), an unconducive environment, and instructional strategies. These factors could have positive and negative impacts on the students, depending on the students' learning situation.
