Abstract

This study aimed at (i) investigating the advantages and disadvantages of online learning from vocational students' perspectives, and (ii) considering their attitudes towards online classes. A questionnaire, and an interview were used to collect data and opinions from students. Seventy-one students from Binh Thuan Province Vocational College participated in this study answering the questions; and nineteen among them took part in interviews with the researcher. This study revealed that in students' view, the advantages of online learning include an easy access to the Google Meet application, improvements in technical skills, meeting course requirements, enough requested knowledge achievement, and the flexibility in learning. Meanwhile, the disadvantages were problems with microphones or webcams, disturbances from outside, expensive Internet services, difficulties in pair work and group work, and spending much time on the internet. Nevertheless, students were generally eager with online learning because they had chances to familiarize themselves with various online platforms, continue learning through the internet by themselves, and also they could avoid bad weather or travelling.
