Abstract
While the COVID-19 crisis has sparked renewed interest in online learning research, there are only a few well-documented studies on students' perceptions of Internet access in online (remote) learning. As a result, we adopted a quantitative approach to investigate students' perceptions of Internet access for online (remote) learning in Indonesian higher education institutions during the COVID-19 pandemic. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics and content analysis. The findings indicate that students in Indonesian higher education institutions negatively perceive their experience with online (remote) learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. They are dissatisfied with the poor performance of the Internet as well as the high cost of Internet access. They also have concerns and impediments regarding online (remote) learning. Finally, the current study's implications are discussed, along with some recommendations for future research.
