Perception, Blended Learning, English Language Learning, during and post COVID-19 PandemicAbstract
Blended learning became essential during the COVID-19 pandemic and was implemented in higher education, including at STKIP YPUP Makassar. This study examines students’ perceptions of blended learning in English language learning during and post-pandemic. Using a descriptive quantitative approach with a survey design, data were collected through a questionnaire with 20 close-ended questions. The study involved 20 eighth-semester students from the English Education Department. Findings indicate that most students had a positive perception of blended learning. However, post-pandemic, positive perceptions declined to 57% compared to 71% during the pandemic, suggesting growing concerns about its effectiveness.
