Implementation of fiqih private vocational school learning in the covid-19
pandemic period in MIS Katingan 252
by this outbreak is the world of education (Handarini & Wulandari, 2020). This has led
several countries to decide to close schools and universities (Purwanto et al., 2020). To
prevent the spread of Covid-19, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends
temporarily stopping activities that will potentially cause crowds (Susiyanti & Nugraheni,
2020). Even during the outbreak of Covid-19 in Indonesia, there were many ways that the
government did to prevent its spread through social distancing, one of which was the
Circular of the Ministry of Education and Culture (Kemendikbud) of the Directorate of
Higher Education No. 1 of 2020 concerning the prevention of the spread of Covid-19 in
the world of education (Kurnia, 2021)
The circular instructs to organize distance learning and advises students to learn
from their respective homes (Ghulamudin & Habibi, 2020). As of last March, the impact
that Covid 19 has had on teaching and learning activities has been quite pronounced, this
can be seen from learning that should be done directly and meaningfully now can only be
done independently (Supiani, Muryati, & Saefulloh, 2020). That way students carry out
indirect learning by utilizing online or network learning which is considered quite
effective in situations like today (Pratiwi, 2021).
Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) itself is a respiratory tract infection caused
by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), or what is often
called the Coronavirus (Isbaniah, 2020). This virus has a high mutation rate and is a
zoonotic pathogen that can persist in humans and animals with a very diverse clinical
presentation, ranging from asymptomatic, mild to severe symptoms, even to death
(Mulyadi, Romli, & Jamaludin, 2020).
Given the danger and the rapid spread of the Covid-19 virus, almost all schools
respond quickly to government instructions by stopping learning face-to-face, including
MIS Al Muhajir and MIS Ar Raudah Kereng Pangi. MIS al Muhajir and MIS Ar Raudah
Kereng Pangi are schools with an Islamic religious education background located in
Katingan district. Based on data obtained from the official website of Katingan Regency,
it is known that in Katingan Regency there are 2 State Madrasah Ibtidaiyah and 5 Suasta
Ibtidaiyah madrasas, two of which are located in Kereng Pangi, namely MI Al Muhajir
and MI Ar Raudah. MIS Al Muhajir and MIS Ar Raudah Kereng Pangi are known to also
limit the physical interaction space (physical distancing) that took place during the
pandemic, of course, creates mental or psychosocial pressure on children. In general,
children expressed boredom with this situation because they were at home for quite a
long time, thus reducing students' interest in learning (Zubaedah, 2021).
Based on observations, it is known that Katingan Hilir Subdistrict has two MIS in
the Hampalit village, both MISs have adequate learning support facilities, both in terms
of learning infrastructure, the condition of teaching and education personnel as well as the
quality of teachers owned by many who are certified. However, it is known that the two
schools have uneven internet connections, some can easily access the network and some
have to go to great lengths to get it.
This is of course an inhibiting factor for the implementation of learning in the
two schools, in addition to the internet network, it is known that online learning requires
several media that must be fulfilled such as the Zoom application, Google Meet, or other
applications that must be balanced in terms of mastery of these applications (Anggaira,
Pd10, & Metro, 2020). In this case, of course, children and parents need time to master it,
especially them still at the basic level of education so continuous guidance is needed by
parents and the school. Not only that, but other problems also arise regarding the costs
that must be incurred for purchasing internet packages, as we know that the applications
used in online learning are very wasteful of internet quota so that parents have to pay a lot
of money (Harsela, 2021).
