Abstract
The classroom atmosphere has obviously changed to be more passive after the pandemic as students found it more difficult to communicate face-to-face. Although students prefer attending classes face-to-face (Mohammad et al., 2022), it was also found that they might not be completely ready for social interaction with the impact of all the social distancing policies and practices during and, still, after the pandemic (Charney et al., 2020). This indeed added hurdles for teachers to design course activities that can motivate and stimulate students' learning. Therefore, this research aims to learn from students' voices regarding the elements of the courses they take and the class activities they prefer the most. Although the analysis comes from a small sample size, approximately 50 students, it will still be a good move for teachers to understand more of the students' needs and adjust the teaching methods and communication strategies accordingly.
