Abstract: This study aims to identify teachers' knowledge about online learning platforms and describe the obstacles that have arisen for teachers and students in online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study uses a qualitative method. Respondents of this study are lecturers from the Accounting Study at the Institute of Economic Science Bongaya, Makassar, Indonesia. This study was conducted using a Forum Group Discussion (FGD). One session of FGD took place with five teachers at a time. The study results show that teachers were aware of online learning platforms before the COVID-19 pandemic. Teachers also use more than 1 (one) platform to deal with network/signal problems encountered when learning online. This study also assesses students' responses to online learning; the study results show that students are very enthusiastic and feel comfortable and safe with online lectures given by the lecturer. This study's findings show that even though the COVID-19 pandemic is hitting the world of education, teachers have proven that they can master the available platforms so that lectures continue to run naturally and effectively. These findings suggest that there are so many choices of online learning platforms that are developing in society that teachers can use to make learning during the Covid-19 pandemic run effectively.
