This study uses a phenomenological research method, where data collection is carried out by means of Focus Group Discussion (FGD), which was conducted twice on 15 users of online learning applications. Through this research, it is known that the user's response from the compulsion in using the online learning model is that the subject tends to feel mostly bored, difficult to discipline, tendency to be lazy, and has the proclivity to be dishonest.

The majority of users prefer to utilize the offline learning system when the pandemic ends. One person prefers to use a hybrid system which is a combination of online and offline learning method.

The method used in this study was Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with 40 students who were divided in several groups based on semester level. All FGD pratidipants had taken practicum coursed, namely the Digital Videography and Multimedia Laboratory. The result showed that the challenges faced in practicum courses are the differences of distance and time to complete group assignmenets among the students, the availability of learning support tools and facilities, and the updating of teaching material content. Alternative responses made by students are by subtituting practicum tools and utilizing social media such as Youtube and Instagram to enrich learning material.
