Measuring Efl Students’ Online Learning Readiness During The Pandemic

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the factors that influence student readiness when online learning during a pandemic. This thesis used a survey study as a research methodology. The instrument and questionnaire used OLRS developed by Hung, Chou, Chen & Own (2010) which consists of 18 statements with 5 dimensions. The participants come from students in the English Education Department batch 2020. The result of this study is that motivation for learning is the factor that most influences students. Followed by computer/internet self-efficacy as the second most influential factor. Next, selfdirected learning is the third influential factor, and online communication self-efficacy is the fourth influential factor. Meanwhile, learner control is the last influencing factor in online learning readiness. Theoretically, this research is expected to be a reference to help future researchers with issues related to online learning readiness in EFL students.
