MTSS Khudrinnur Introduction Education can be defined as a process of changing attitudes and behaviour of a person or group of people to mature humans through teaching and training efforts, action processes, and JBSE/4.
June2022 ways of educating (Nurkholis, 2.
Learning is defined as a process of behaviour change as a result of individual interaction with the environment.
Changes in behaviour towards learning outcomes are continuous, functional, cheerful, active, and directed (Pane et al.
, 2.
Learning is an interactive process between students and educators, lesson materials, delivery methods, learning strategies, and learning resources in a learning environment (Pane et al.
, 2.
The Coronavirus disease (COVID-.
pandemic caused almost all activities to be carried out at home, including the learning process.
this resulted in the face-to-face learning process not being carried out.
The Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbu.
issues Circular Letter Number 15 of 2020 concerning Guidelines for Organizing Learning from Home in an Emergency Period for the Spread of Coronavirus disease (COVID-.
(Kemendikbud, 2.
According to the Circular, the implementation of teaching and learning activities from face-to-face .
to online .
is the best solution to prevent the spread of Coronavirus disease (COVID-.
so that students can continue to study even though it is not carried out directly at school (Nabila.
However, the policies issued, of course, cannot ensure that everything will run as it should in all circles, especially schools in villages that lack facilities in the form of integrated technology to support the online learning process.
In addition, limitations in Internet accessibility, hardware .
and software .
, and financing are often obstacles to maximizing online learning resources (Dwi, 2.
With various difficulties experienced by students in online learning, the researchers aimed to discover the causes of students' difficulties in learning online during the Coronavirus disease (COVID-.
pandemic class Vi MTsS Khudrinnur.
Literature Review Online Learning Online learning is learning that is supported by the use of digital tools and content.
Online learning is in the form of interactions between teachers and students where this learning is accessed via the internet.
Online learning, in general, is the delivery of learning materials through electronic media such as the internet.
In contrast, the definition of online learning is the use of internet technology to distribute learning materials so that students can access them from anywhere (Khoirunnissa, 2.
Learning Difficulties Learning difficulties can also be interpreted as a condition in the learning process which is marked by certain obstacles to achieving learning outcomes.
Students learning difficulties are usually evident from the decline in their academic performance or learning achievement.
These obstacles may or may not be realized by students who experience them in the learning process (Risprianto, 2.
There are several characteristics of learning difficulties in general that are shown by the students, including :
Low learning achievement, i.
the grades achieved are below the average of students in the The results achieved are not commensurate with the efforts made.
Students are slow in doing learning tasks.
Students show inappropriate behaviour, such as being indifferent and easily offended.
Students behave in unusual ways, such as being gloomy, sad, and aloof from their friends.
Students get a drastic decrease in the achievements previously obtained.
Students often do not enter without explanation.
Students often leave lessons for no reason or skip class.
(Sudarsana, 2.
Factors of Unpreparedness / Difficulty of Students in Online Learning Lack of Understanding of Materials and Difficulty in Doing Tasks Delivering information related to learning materials is an important aspect that needs to be considered in online learning during this Coronavirus disease (COVID-.
addition to the lack of understanding of the material, giving assignments to students is one of the benchmarks for a teacher to provide an assessment to students of how high the students' understanding of learning materials is.
besides, giving assignments also trains students' independence to solve problems (Ilmi, 2.
JBSE/4.
June 2022 Difficulty in Purchasing Internet Quota The online learning process that is carried out requires independence from the school in preparing its facilities to support the learning process.
One of the challenges is the internet data package which is very decisive in the learning process, the different economic abilities and backgrounds of each student will create some inequality in the learning process (Ilmi, 2.
Limited Internet Access Internet connection is the main thing for creating effective online learning.
without a good internet connection, there will be no direct interaction between students and teachers (Hamdani, 2.
The condition of the internet network, which is still not evenly distributed throughout the country, has made several educational institutions, both primary and secondary schools, unable to enjoy the internet.
These various obstacles create anxiety for students to take part in the online learning process.
some admit that it is challenging to participate in learning because not all areas have an internet network with smooth access (Ilmi, 2.
The Role of Parents Parents must be directly involved in their children's learning activities in online learning Many parents complain that they are unable to accompany their children every day.
One reason is that they also have jobs as civil servants, office workers, and private employees.
In addition, other concerns in implementing online learning are parents' readiness to prepare learning tools and systems.
parents also need to understand the use of technology in the online learning process (Ilmi, 2.
Methodology Research Design The research was conducted at Madrasah Tsanawiyah Khudrinnur.
Toari District.
Kolaka Regency, held in December 2021.
This study used a descriptive research design where this study looked directly at and described what happened according to the facts on the ground.
Moreover, the technique that the researcher uses in data collection is to use questionnaires and interviews, where the interviews are used to clarify the results of the questionnaires that students have filled out (Nurhasanah, 2.
Instruments The research instruments used are:
Questionnaire Instruments The questionnaire type of questionnaire used was a closed questionnaire.
The questionnaire was used to collect data about the difficulties experienced by students during the teaching and learning process during the Coronavirus disease (COVID-.
Interview Instruments Interview instruments where the interview instrument is supporting data or that strengthens the answers to the student questionnaires that have been distributed and the resource persons in this study are two teachers and four students about the difficulties experienced by students during the teaching and learning process during the Coronavirus disease (COVID-.
Technique of Data Analysis .
Data Reduction Data reduction is made by sorting out the answers from the interviews.
It will be seen what new opinions are not found in the results of student questionnaires related to any difficulties experienced by students in online learning, both in terms of facilities and infrastructure or from the views of teachers and students during the implementation of online learning (Ritonga.
In reducing the data, the researcher uses the formula:
ycE= X 100% ycA (Sudijono, 2.
JBSE/4.

P = Percentage number F = Frequency of each alternative answer N = Total number of alternative answers to sample .
Presentation of Data Data presentation is done in the form of brief descriptions, charts, relationships between categories, flowcharts and the like (Cintiasih, 2.
Conclusion Drawing The conclusion drawing has undergone several stages of data analysis: data collection, data reduction, and data presentation.
The conclusions are supported by valid and consistent evidence when the researcher returns to the field to collect data.
Is a credible conclusion (Hayat.

Due to the pandemic, learning is carried out online.
This causes online learning, of course, not all schools can carry out without experiencing difficulties, one of which is difficulties in learning.
Learning difficulties experienced by students are a condition that every teacher needs to know during the learning process where the learning process changes.
which was initially carried out in schools face-to-face but due to the Coronavirus disease (COVID-.
pandemic, learning is carried out online.
The first factor, which has a lower percentage than other factors regarding the difficulties of students in online learning, is the material factor which is based on the results of the study.
In class Vi MTSS Khudrinnur.
Toari District, not all students, when they do not understand the learning material, will ask the teacher, resulting in 58.
85% of students experiencing difficulties.
In online learning, many students have difficulty understanding the material presented by the teacher due to poor delivery of material, and lack of communication between students and teachers, resulting in the students having difficulty understanding the The results of this study are also related to research conducted by Noviansyah .
which says that obstacles to the availability of a good internet network are also believed to be factors that impact students' understanding of following learning materials.
Data shows that students who do not understand the material are 52,77% in the implementation of online In online learning, many students have difficulty understanding the material presented by the teacher due to poor delivery of material, and lack of communication between students and teachers, resulting in students having difficulty understanding the material.
The student factor who does not have a cellphone has a higher percentage than the material.
Based on the research results conducted in class Vi of MTsS Khudrinnur.
Toari District, 40% of students who do not have (HP) participate in online learning.
In carrying out online learning, of course, not all students can do it because the online learning process requires a cellphone (HP).
Learning cellphone (HP) is essential for the online learning process to take place, but some students do not have cell phones due to economic factors.
This is supported by research conducted by Taradisa .
, which argues that online learning requires facilities such as cellphones or laptops.
Still, some students do not have cell phones to do online learning, which is a big problem for students and teachers.
The third factor is the quota factor.
Internet quota is essential so that students do not miss the lessons that are carried out online.
Based on the study's results, it was found that 68.
75% of students had difficulties with the availability of internet quota when participating in online learning and one of the factors causing difficulties for students not having this quota is economic factors.
Based on the results of research conducted by Ramadani .
, an internet quota is needed to access the internet when learning to use an online cellphone.
Limited JBSE/4.
June2022 internet quota is one of the causes of learning difficulties that students have.
The price of using the internet quota is still considered quite expensive by parents of students.
Based on the study's results, as many as 69.
07% of students experienced difficulties accessing the internet.
In the online learning process, the network factor becomes an obstacle for some students because students live a bit far from residential areas or gardens.
In line with research conducted by Noviansyah .
, which said that the obstacles experienced by students in the learning process were related to inadequate internet networks.
Students with a percentage of 55.
55% have difficulty accessing the internet.
The fifth factor is that as many as 71.
35% of students are more likely to choose to play games than to take part in learning.
This is because students feel bored when participating in online learning and prefer to skip classes to be able to play games.
The results of this study are in line with previous research conducted by Riska .
That said that online game addiction has a terrible impact on its users, especially the behaviour of students.
It is not uncommon for students to play truant to play online games that are considered exciting.
Conclusion The factors that cause difficulties experienced by students in online learning are network constraints during the learning process 66.
09%, not having a quota of around 68.
75%, not participating in learning due to not having a cellphone around 66.
40%, lack of understanding of participants about 58.
85 % of the students to the material and addiction to playing online games is around 71.
