Weaving Edu Tapestry

  INTRODUCTION A. Background Since the beginning of 2020, the covid-19 pandemic has been a global public health catastrophe. It has been disrupting almost all sectors, including education. To contain the spread of the virus, practicing social distancing is indispensable and schools are forced to create a big change in the system. In Indonesia, the ministry of education had proposed to shift the offline classes into online classes at every level of education since March 2020. Applying online learning (henceforth is abbreviated OL) or e-learning has become the most feasible solution during the pandemic because it enables students to access and learn the materials anytime and anywhere. It also allows students and teachers to communicate from a distance. Students can also read and respond every time (Lim 2017). OL is classified into a triad of synchronous, asynchronous, and hybrid or blended learning (Perveen, 2016; Dorsah & Alhassan, 2021). Synchronous OL, such as live students presen

  In a research proposal, the methods section refers to the segment describing how you will conduct your research. In general, the research method section of a proposal and the research method section of an article (report) are similar. The only difference is that the research method section of a proposal is written in future tenses, while the research method section of an article is written in past tenses. For instance, if the research method section of a proposal states, “This study will involve 30 students consisting of 10 tenth graders, 10 eleventh graders, and 10 twelfth graders of Global High School”, the research method section of its article will state, “This study will involve 30 students consisting of 10 tenth graders, …” Additionally, if the proposal states, “Data will be collected using a set of questionnaire …”, the article (report) will state, “Data was collected using a set of questionnaire …” This research method section is written to is to convince the research committ

  What is a Literature Review? A literature review is a scholarly used to examine the state of knowledge and understanding of the academic literature on a topic or issue placed in context.  It summarizes, synthesizes, and critics (evaluates) journal articles, books, conference papers, books, government documents, and other documents of academic value to illuminate how knowledge has evolved within the field and highlight what has been done, what is generally accepted, what is emerging and what is the present state of thinking on the topic. Literature reviews have two types. First, it can be a stand-alone product, which summarizes, synthesizes, and critiques existing studies on specific a topic and drives a conclusion about current understanding . This type of literature review is written in a structure similar to a standard essay, i.e., introduction, main body, and conclusion (See this article as an example). Second, it can be part of a larger research project, which provides an ove
