ABSTRACT

We determined how well high school students at a state school in Indonesia achieved academically after receiving chemistry instruction using an online learning method throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. We used the pre-experimental research method with 1 group design. The participants were 34 students, consisting of 12 males and 22 females. A cognitive achievement questionnaire was used for the survey. Parametric tests were used to analyze the data because the Shapiro-Wilk normality test indicated a value of 0.138. Equal variances were found with Levene’s test (0.576). The variance was not different between genders. The cognitive tests after the online learning showed no significant differences between genders (t-test significance > 0.05). The study’s findings supported the validity of online learning for Indonesian students.
Keywords: Online Learning, Gender, Chemistry, Senior high school
