Abstract :
We have investigated what it takes to help the
students get interested in an online course built with
educators and education researchers in mind based on
student reflections and testimonies. The purpose of this
study is to tell and retell the experiences of Graduate
School Students in Online Class. A qualitative narrative
approach using in-depth interview and focus group
discussion were conducted to five students of the
Graduate School of Ramon Magsaysay Memorial
Colleges. There were three themes that emerged as
experienced by the Graduate School students who are
having an online class, namely: mindfulness in
embracing the new normal, teamwork, and workable
setting. The participants of the study had different
approaches in coping with the consequences and
challenges brought by online class: no network coverage,
poor internet connections, technical interruption and
fatigue. They agreed that online classes bring flexibility,
reduced cost and comfortable home learning
environment.
