1.7 Delimitation.

Based on a study made on the comparison between online class and regular class. This study found that most of them are on the google form that is the total number of students who like the class as usual. The method conducted in this study to see how many fine art students either from diploma or degree that determines them to make a choice whether class as usual or online class. To ensure that this study is conducted smoothly, various methods are taken into account to see the average student on the comparison between online classes or class as usual.

Most of the surveys written by students are from Uitm Machang Fine art students and also students from Uitm Shah Alam. Most students choose this face-to-face class because the suitability of this fine art cost is learning face to face compared to online classes which may cause problems in students understanding certain subjects. In this case, face-to-face classes are more of a priority for many so that the learning process can run as expected.

Language and organization are the keys to being professional when speaking live. Having conversations in class and online is different for these fine arts students because the subject of art will look at a visual angle of space that will show more effective concepts and ways of delivery for students.

Accurate selection of students in Direct Interaction can make the discussion active, this class learning provides an opportunity to meet in the same place at the same time and more actively to discuss the topics discussed. This also gives students the opportunity to be more interactive and creative while making presentations.

The conclusion of students' choice on the quality of Teaching and Learning Between Face-to-Face Methods and online learning is that the quality of Face to Face teaching and learning methods that have a "good" value will improve the quality of education at the University compared to online methods that have "adequate" value. Until the interaction between students and lecturers in terms of network quality, is no longer problematic. But as a student must play a good responsibility in seeking knowledge for success.

1.8 Limitation

There are some limitations in the comparison between online classes and face-to-face classes for art students.first, the limitations during the survey process. This is because the survey made through google form is widely spread to UiTM fine arts students and only a little spread to fine arts students from other institutions. So the survey answered by the majority are Uitm Shah Alam and UiTM Machang Fine art students.

We also faced limited to communication with other student from other institution, because we do not have their contact number and can not go to their institution because movement constraints due to the spread of the epidemic.We got help from some other student who have contacts from other institution to spread the survey to them.Its means that this survey cannot be widely disseminated to them

In addition, the current constraints of generalizability of the data Also one of limitation. It is because there are many and various answers from students through surveys. This diversity makes it difficult for us to coordinate accurate answers to research issues. we need to sort, change and combine to get the right overall answer and include all the answers they gave.So the result of this answer is very limited to people or student who experience a same situation like this student.

Next, the inevitable constraint is the network problem is also one of limitation. Most of the processes carried out require internet asses. This means that the collected data is also taken from the internet, apart from surveys, and observations. we also discuss these processes through google meet, video call or massage that requires a good internet network.When there is an internet problem it will effects our discussion.

uncontrolled variables, which is the answers given by the students are also influenced by their surroundings, feelings and opinions. Moreover the circumstances, needs, facilities and learning of students are different according to the learning syllabus and different for each institution. This will mean that the response or answer of these students will change and not be consistent depend on the current situation.

1.9 Statement of Significant

        The intended experimental researches aims to get the result of student and comparison between online class and face-to-face class for art students. While research regarding online distant learning abounds, few studies explore the relationship between art students satisfaction regarding problems encountered throughout online learning such as instructor, learning community, and teaching presence.

       Teaching presence  is one of three primary component of the Community of Inquiry Model. In their model teaching presence is conceptually aimed at exploring specifically the instructo and student relationship within online learning environments. Besides, teaching presence also is a consisting of design, facilitation, and direction of cognitive and social processes for the realization of personally meaningful and educationally worthwhile outcomes.

      The content of the course that was studied was singularly varied only by its delivery mode. All course content was identical. Online students received the exact same lecture materials and instruction as face-to-face students. The online lecture content was a delayed video stream version of an earlier meanwhile face-to-face lecture delivered via the Internet. Both online and face-to-face students received all other course materials through a university.

     The strong similarity in presented course content, learning materials delivered, and student course work expectations made for a unique study of the learning environment where instructor variation was primarily only denoted by the type of delivery received by the students. The vast majority of studies investigating student rated instructor satisfaction or teaching presence have by-and-large only looked at either face-to-face or online learning environments exclusively.
