This study aims to identify the challenges that students face in using Google Classroom as a T&L method during the COVID-19 pandemic. A total of 39 Culinary Arts Diploma students at Langkawi Vocational College, Kedah who took the subjects of DHA1234 - Basic Food and Cookery, DHA 3051 - Final Year Project 1 and DHA 1123 - Introduction to Hospitality Industry participated in the study. The questionnaire used was adapted from the previous study and had received expert’s confirmation before being used in the study. The results of the study were analyzed using descriptive statistics involving average use, standard deviation, percentage, frequency, and score. Inferencial statistics involved pearson correlation tests. The study showed that the mean level of challenge faced by students in using Google Classroom is 3.46. Meanwhile, the pearson correlation test found that the significant value was .000. Therefore, there was a relationship between motivational and internet networks aspects. Therefore, the hypothesis (H0) stated in the hypothesis section was rejected. Key words: e-learning, Teaching and Learning, google classroom 1. INTRODUCTION The COVID-19 pandemic is no longer something new to talk about. This crisis not only affects Malaysia, but the whole world [1]. Health professionals from around the world are yet to find a cure for this pandemic and confirm that there is no certainty when the crisis will end. The COVID-19 disrupts various sectors of the country including the economic sector [2]. The quick action of the Malaysian government to declare the Movement Control Order (MCO) starting March 18, 2020 is a very effective effort to curb the spread of the epidemic [3]. The government's swift efforts are to be praised in dealing with the outbreak. Based on the COVID-19 pandemic outbreaks statistics, it could be said that the MCO has been able to control the outbreak. Among other sectors that has been paralyzed is the education sector. The world of education is no exception to this crisis [4]. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a worldwide education system where almost all schools, universities and colleges are closed [5]. Children are not allowed to go to schools and educational institutions to ensure that their lives and families are not endangered. The global crisis caused by the outbreak of the COVID-19 did not only cause conventional T&L to be delayed, but also made teacher assignments more challenging when they needed to adapt to the new norms that required the T&L process to be implemented online. In the new millennium that prioritizes lifelong learning skills, there is no choice but to leverage online education technologies and applications [6] state that information at the fingertips needs to be utilized fully to ensure that although they are unable to attend school to seek knowledge, the knowledge must be conveyed to them via various mediums or platforms. [7] stated that ideally, virtual learning should be pursued using a variety of approaches, be it synchronous learning or asynchronous learning. Learning tools used can be customized to suit the learning needs. There are various mediums to be used including Microsoft Teams, Facebook Live, Google Classroom, Webex, Zoom and other chat applications like Whatsapp and Telegram [8]. Thus, the objectives and hypotheses of this study are as follow: I. Identify the challenges of using google classroom in Langkawi Vocational College students’ learning in terms of internet connection, ICT knowledge, ease of use, family and motivation. II. Identify the relationship between the challenges of internet networks and the motivation for using google classroom in Langkawi Vocational College student learning. Ho: There is no significant relationship between internet network and Vocational College student motivation in using google classroom.
