摘要:The Covid-19 situation has certainly created challenges due to the major shift from face-to-face to online learning seminars which are also known as webinars. In order to ensure continuity in collaborations between universities and institutions among students, this study attempts to find out tertiary students’ readiness, potential challenges and strategies in implementing international webinar forum during the Covid-19 crisis. A total of 15 students’ committee members are involved in conducting the webinar and all of them participated in this study. The data were collected through an online survey and consisted of a five-section questionnaire: demographic profile of the respondents, students’ readiness, potential challenges and potential strategies to implement international webinar forum. The findings revealed that the students overall are ready for the project and it could develop their attributes as undergraduates. Despite their readiness, this study also generally indicated potential challenges which are difficulty to focus due to distractions, lack of motivation due to absence of face-to-face contact and internet connectivity. Several potential strategies to overcome challenges have been proposed which include internet connectivity, motivation and technical skills. Hence, this study provides a platform for awareness and improvements to the success of online collaboration project specifically international webinar forum conducted by tertiary students between two countries.
