Five questions guided our investigation into the learning experiences of vocational students in Central Java during the Covid-19 pandemic. The learning experience of secondary vocational students in Indonesia during the Covid-19 Pandemic uses learning technology facilities that are relatively simple, affordable for students and easy to implement by students. In the learning process, students can adapt to the new learning environment by discussing, collaborating with friends, teachers, and parents. Learning strategies, students strive to find good internet access, providing quotas in order to get smooth learning. Students are motivated in learning, one of the factors is the support of friends, teachers, parents both materially and morally.
