There were 133 participants, comprising 61 SMA students and 72 SMK students. The data was collected using Likert scale questionnaires and an interview. To analyze the data, the authors carried out descriptive and inferential analyzes of the quantitative data, while a qualitative thematic analysis was used. The finding of the study shows that there was a significant difference in the perception of online learning between SMA and SMK students. The high perception was obtained from SMA students, while medium perception was showed by SMK students.
