Abstract.

Since Covid-19 was established as a global pandemic and by National Disaster
Management Authority established the status of a national emergency, the government enact work from home since last March. This makes the learning process changed from classical learning to be non-classical or distance learning.

The majority of teachers still apply learning model in virtual learning. The 3 popular learning models to be applied are Cooperative, PBL and PjBL. The teacher states that the learning model applied is very helpful for their work to realize a virtual classroom, helping students to better understand the material delivered, because it follows the systematic syntax on the learning model used. The application of learning models in each meeting in virtual classrooms was arranged varied to optimize learning and maximize the saturation experienced by students. In addition, various learning methods are applied to support predetermined learning models.
