ABSTRACT
Implementing health protocols and preventive measures are the only effective ways to suppress COVID-19 transmission before vaccines and antiviral drugs are developed. The implementation of health protocols and preventive measures are influenced by one's knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) toward this pandemic. Medical students as candidates for healthcare workers and role models for the community should have a good KAP. This study intends 1) to explore the KAP of medical students in Indonesia toward COVID-19 and 2) to assess which demographic factors have a significant effect on their KAP scores. An online questionnaire consisting of 18 items of knowledge, six items of attitudes, and 12 items of practices were used as instruments in this study. After being distributed for two weeks in June 2020, 525 respondents whose data were worth analyzing were obtained. The respondents consisted of male and female students, from diploma to bachelor degree, and came from all four types of higher education institutions in Indonesia. The results, 48% of respondents had good knowledge, 81% had good attitudes, and 43.5% had good practices toward COVID-19. The location of students' residence has no significant effect on their KAP score. Gender has a significant effect on knowledge and practice scores. Age, institution type, and institution status have a significant effect on their three KAP domains. The KAP survey results can be used as a reflection of the importance of the curriculum that prepares medical students for the pandemic. Medical students are also expected to be able to actively participate in educating people around them on how to minimize the transmission of COVID-19 during the pandemic.

ABSTRACT
Since the policy of sending students home to study as a result of responding to the dangers of the pandemic universities around the world have increasingly trusted distance learning solutions. The solution was to rely on digital literacy to continue and improve student learning outcomes during the COVID-19 disruption. For this reason, the researchers have proven it through analytical efforts and in-depth studies in several international publications. In short, the researchers examined each piece of evidence with a phenomenological approach to get answers to research questions that are among other things involve a data coding system critical evaluation and drawing of valid and reliable final results. The data discussion concludes that world universities believe that digital technology that was increasingly trending can become a learning innovation even though the world will continue to hit global education. Hence the researchers hope that these findings should support other studies in the future. Keywords: Digital Literacy Learning Outcomes Entrust Digital Literacy
ABSTRACT
The learning process in West Sumatera, Indonesia, changed into an online-based system due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which involved educators and students using many platforms of e-learning for teaching and learning. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to evaluate the use of e-learning platforms among students at universities in West Sumatera, Indonesia, during the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly widely used Google Classroom. This research employs the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) by considering relevant external factors related to the pandemic situation and examining their effects on the acceptance of Google Classroom. A questionnaire was distributed from December 11th to December 31st, 2020, to collect data via an online-based survey. Using Cochran's formula with a confidence level of 95%, 383 students were selected as samples, while Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was applied as a method for data analysis. The result showed that the facility had made the learning process easy for students, which influenced its usefulness. The facility is related to the possession of the required tools and knowledge to utilize the technology, alongside the significant effect on ease of use and usefulness. When adequately provided, the ease and benefit of using Google Classroom are maximally felt when distance learning is ongoing. Consequently, the ease of use positively influenced the benefits of the platform as its features were simple and benefited the students during the learning process. The usefulness of Google Classroom also had a positive influence on attitude towards the platform, and this variable finally determined the intention to use, which was significantly influenced by the perceived usefulness of e-learning. Therefore, this study shows that factors that determine facility, such as the internet, devices used by students, or knowledge to use Google Classroom, are important in online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic.
ABSTRACT
Dakwah merupakan suatu usaha yang dilakukan dengan sengaja dan sadar dengan mengajak orang lain kejalan yang benar, yaitu berbuat baik dan mencegah perbuatan munkar. Tujuan dalam berdakwah merupakan tujuan tahap awal untuk menyalamatkan umat manusia dari lembah kegelapan dan membawanya ke tempat yang terang-benderang, dari jalan yang sesat kepada jalan yang lurus, dari lembah kemusyrikan dengan segala bentuk kesengsaraan menuju kepada tauhid yang menjanjikan kebahagiaan tidak terkecuali ditengan pandemi COVID-19 yang terus mewabah hamper semua penjuru dunia. Saat ini Pemanfaatan perkembangan teknologi informasi semakin nyata, tidak dapat dipungkiri bahwa teknologi dibutuhkan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Setiap kegiatan sosialisasi yang meliputi berbagai aspek kehidupan dipastikan memiliki peran media sosial di dalamnya. Sampai membuat pengaruh yang bersifat masif dalam kehidupan seseorang baik bagi masyarakat khususnya kalangan remaja, media sosial sudah menjadi candu yang membuat penggunanya tiada hari tanpa membuka media sosial. Lantas, Islam adalah agama yang “rahmatan lil alamin”. Sehingga Islam harus disebarluaskan kepada seluruh umat.
ABSTRACT
The specific researches focused on biology teacher candidates in nowadays outbreak/pandemic (COVID-19) condition are very scarce. This study aimed to describe the profile of COVID-19 literacy level possessed by biology teacher candidate students in Indonesia. The data in this survey research was collected between January and March, 2020. The selected location was Malang, one of education city and was announced as the red zone for COVID-19 spread. The total sample were 290 students. The data collection employed the questionnaire, contained of three parts i.e. information of respondent's identity, profile of information resource, attaining time profile of COVID-19 related information, and COVID-19 literacy level. The students' literacy scores were analyzed using ANOVA to analyze the presence of student's years' effect on COVID-19 literacy of biology teacher candidate students. As a result, students' years do not have a significant effect on their COVID-19 literacy. Most students had heard of COVID-19 before the disease was reported to enter Indonesia, but only few students were categorized in high level. The campus should respond immediately to these results, considering that students act as agents of information for those around them. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved)
