| dc.description.abstract | Background: The World Health Organization has declared that COVID-19 is a global pandemic. To prevent its spread, academic
activities in Indonesia have been shifted to distance learning methods. This change resulted in students having to adapt to these new
methods and deal with the additional stress. The inability of students to adapt contributed to the new conditions causing the additional
stress. Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the effect of online teaching and learning activities during the COVID-19 pandemic
on stress at the Faculty of Medicine, Ciputra University, Surabaya Indonesia. Methods: The quantitative method used was in the form
of analytical observations with a cross-sectional approach. The respondents consisted of 63 people, selected using simple random
sampling. Data analysis used linear regression tests to determine the effect of the second variable. Results: The results showed that
there was no significant effect (p= 0.052) between Online Teaching and Learning Activities During the COVID-19 Pandemic Period
on Stress in the Medical Faculty Students, Ciputra University, Surabaya, Indonesia. Students have started to become accustomed to
the strategies to deal with the additional stress and its effects. Other supporting factors in the implementation of online learning are
flexibility, time efficiency, low learning costs, and learning materials which can be accessed at any time with technological applications,
using simple storage of learning materials. Conclusions: There was no significant influence found from the online learning on student
stress. | en_US |
