Teaching and learning (TnL) during the Movement Control Order (MCO) is a challenging experience. However, teaching must be implemented until the syllabus is completed. WhatsApp and Google Classroom (GC) applications are used. In addition, video conferencing such as Google Meet is also used. Various issues need to be considered on students’ readiness in online learning. Therefore, this case study will identify the factors that influence student readiness and determine the appropriate online learning methods to use. Preliminary survey was conducted through 2 questionnaires, before and after online learning. A total of 49 students answered questions at the first stage in order to find out the readiness of students to accept online learning. Data were analyzed using descriptive data. At the second stage, 41 students answered a five-point Likert type of questionnaire that consists of 21 items and questions for the choice of online learning methods are asked again. Data were analyzed using descriptive data and tested by using linear regression. The findings of the study found that, in the first stage the majority of students prefer to use the WhatsApp application in online learning. However, in the second stage students choose to use a combination of methods between WhatsApp and Video Conference such as Google Meet. It can be said that student readiness in mathematics during MCO is affected by the learning environment. In conclusion, lecturers need to identify suitable methods of online learning so that students can continue to learn efficiently and smoothly.
