| description | The education field has undergone a new norm due to the pandemic of COVID-19 and it can
be seen that new techniques and improvements can be applied among the educators and
students. In a Malaysian context, it is revealed that a majority of universities have enhanced
the quality of teaching via online platforms such as Cisco Webex, Google Meet, Zoom and
many more that provide the medium for instructional delivery. However, it is also imperative
to view the situation from the students’ perspectives in order to identify the issues that have
occurred throughout the online learning process. The current study is conducted to identify
the level of adaptability among students towards online learning and it consists of several
components such as physical, spiritual, and emotional aspects. The respondents were selected
through purposive sampling from selected local universities in Malaysia where about 316
students participated. This study was done quantitatively, and the results were analysed using
Smart PLS 3.2.8. The findings showed that there were high values of Cronbach alpha and
composite reliability which indicates that students agreed with the items in all the constructs
in terms of physical (α=0.879, CR=0.906), spiritual (α =0.863, CR=0.901), emotional
(α=0.953, CR=0.961) and adaptability (α=0.913, CR=0.931). The validity (AVE) of all the
constructs were also in the acceptable range. It reveals that the physical, spiritual, and
emotional components are imperative in order to ensure students could adapt with the new
norm of online learning during the pandemic of COVID-19. Other than that, it shows that a
balance well-being could hinder problems related to tough learning situation especially in
online learning. |
