Abstract

In response to the MBKM curriculum program launched by the government in 2021, several courses need to be reallocated. In the Visual Communication Department at a private university, Typography was one of the mandatory courses affected by the new curricula. This course needs to be reduced from six to three credits with embedded material to support the new curricula. Nevertheless, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the online teaching method is still implemented, thus arguably increasing student stressors. This research aims to determine the students' perception of academic workload related to the learning outcomes of the typography course. This research employed a quantitative method by collecting data using the NASA-TLX inventory instrument on six typography course assignments by 32 students who completed this course, then analyzed using the appropriate inferential statistical method. The results found that in the process, this course reached the learning outcome while students perceived a medium range of workload. Gender and GPA did not affect perceptions of workload. Controlling student workloads according to appropriate meeting hours with time-disciplined assistance becomes the suggested learning model. The non-optimal use of communication media and design software in distance learning also affected the perception of workload.
