Researchers will use positivistism paradigm with a qualitative approach and conduct observations, interviews with lecturers and students of the LSPR Institute Communication and Business and also study literature. The results of this study indicate that online lectures during the COVID-19 pandemic are less effective in terms of providing material but are quite acceptable given the limited space for people today.
