The implementation of information technology-based learning has been intensively campaigned at Undiksha. However, since the beginning of rolling, there are still a number of things that are fixed and improved. According to Wawan Sudatha, who is also a lecturer in Educational Technology, the content of the courses is still an obstacle to learning. “The existence of these obstacles is a trigger for us at the Online Learning Center to be able to find the best strategy so that later it can run better and more lecturers apply online learning,” he said.
