Students faced many difficulties during distance learning and worried for achieving learning outcomes. In conclusion, distance learning is a good alternative when classroom learning is suspended during the COVID-19 pandemic period. It is also important to recognize that, distance learning cannot replace the need for on-site and face-to-face learning, but can complement existing traditional classroom-based learning models.
