Summary: | This study aimed to discover the extend of emotional influence towards secondary school students learning and academic achievement while the academic year took place amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The simultaneity of the Movement Control Order (MCO) implemented by the government and exclusive online learning conducted in secondary schools in Malaysia is a key element that this research aimed to explore as it is a relatively new experience by both the educators and adolescents. This research was conducted using the mixed method research utilizing the embedded design involving 381 participants in the quantitative survey study and 5 respondents in the qualitative study. The study has indicated the level of emotions experienced by the secondary school students are anxiety, sadness, fear, and desire. From the analysis of inferential statistics using the Spearman Correlation, the study has found that there is a relationship between enjoyment, hope, pride, anxiety, and boredom towards the students’ academic achievement. The factors causing the emotions experienced during online learning was found to be lack of social interaction with peers, presence of distraction such as easy access to smartphones, unpleasant class environment, overwhelming workload, and not having to meet a lot of people on daily basis. The findings from this study will enable further understanding on the degree of the role of emotional experiences in influencing learning and academic achievement among adolescents in secondary school during online learning amidst an unprecedented time due to the COVID-19 pandemic. |
