Abstract


Project-Based Learning (PjBL) is the teaching method that is commonly used by lecturers who taught the CALT course, yet given the situation of the COVID-19 pandemic caused the change from offline to online class. Thus, this study tried to find out the learners’ perceptions toward the change situation during the PjBL implementation in CALT course by distributing questionnaires to learners who had joined the CALT course and describe their opinion in this study. This study was described as a Ex Post Facto study since the data were taken in the previous semester of the PjBL implementation in the situation of COVID-19. The result of the questionnaire distributed had shown the positive result from the learners’ perspective that can be seen through tables presented in this study. The learners admitted that they had improved their learning skills in finishing their projects.
