Abstract

In this pandemic situation, students and teachers must study at home because everyone must practice social distancing. It makes learning in schools impossible. This study aims to (1) find out the difficulties faced by students in writing essays during online learning at UINFAS Bengkulu and (2) find out what students' solutions were when writing essays during online learning. Researchers used descriptive qualitative research methods and used observation and interview instruments. Data were collected from the sixth semester who had learned to write argumentative essays during online learning. The results showed that students experienced difficulties such as unstable internet connection in learning while the class was still in progress, increasing internet quota costs, limited learning media, and limited time and techniques in learning. Provide explanations online, and students do not understand the material during online learning. It was concluded that during online learning, students faced many difficulties in mastering writing essays. Therefore, teachers and students need to prepare and collaborate, so that they do not experience difficulties in applying essay writing during online learning, to achieve learning objectives as expected.
