- Abstract
This study explored the perspective of Indonesian maritime higher education students about English online learning. Online learning becomes challenging for them who usually stay and learn in the dormitory. The purposive sampling method was used to choose the 172 participants. The data collection techniques used questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. They were designed to elicit the participants’ perceptions and problems toward the use of online technology platforms in studying from home. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. The result of the study showed that cadets had a positive perception of the use of online technology platforms in studying from home. Meanwhile, there were some barriers to the use of online technology: the problems of anxiety, opportunity, and motivation. The results also showed that technological problems such as connectivity and devices were the main factors contributing to the Indonesian maritime cadets’ barriers. Following the study results, the recommendations for addressing the problems were proposed.
