INTRODUCTION
In December 2019 the emergence of a virus called the corona virus that causes the disease covid-19 and infects humans for the first time in the Wuhan province, China. Covid-19 is an infectious disease that has symptoms such as flu, fever, cough, fatigue, no appetite, and shortness of breath, Covid-19 is quickly transmitted through coughing or breath by Covid-19 sufferers who fall to the surface of objects, which can transmit disease through Therefore, the world health organization, namely the World Health Organization (WHO) urges you to maintain a distance of more than 1 meter from other people to minimize the transmission of  At the beginning of 2020, Indonesia was also faced with the Covid-19 pandemic which was increasing every day. Seeing the development of covid-19 increasing, the President and the Minister of Education and Culture held a limited meeting on March 24, 2020, the results of the meeting issued SE (Circular) Number 4 of 2020, regarding the implementation of education policies in the emergency period of the spread of COVID-19, one of which is the learning process. Online. Online learning needs to use internet facilities as a learning tool related to online learning, acceptance of technology is used for internet learning models among high schools and students can be said to be quite ready to use learning technology, such as the TAM (Technology Acceptance Model), application technology documents, and other technologies.

Problem of Research
Interest is a persistent tendency to pay attention and remember some activities. Activities that are of interest to someone, are considered continuously accompanied by pleasure. Interest has a great influence on learning, because if the learning materials studied are not in accordance with the interests of students, students will not learn as well as possible and they will not get satisfaction from the lesson. The low motivation of students towards science learning can be seen from the learning outcomes both cognitive and psychomotor, as well as motivation indicators such as liking, interest, involvement of students in the teaching and learning process (Sidiq, D. A. N., et.al., 2020). Research conducted by Marlinda, et.al. (2016) shows that the application of experimental methods in science subjects can improve student learning outcomes and increase student motivation.
Anna Freud also argues that changes that occur in adolescence include changes in psychosexual development and relationships with ideals that can be realized, one of which is through education. This is the reason the author chooses high school students as subjects in the study, besides that, it is also reinforced by the opinions of several high school teachers, that the interest, learning motivation of high school students has indeed decreased during this pandemic situation, and there are various obstacles experienced by students during the process online learning during the Covid-19 pandemic (Herliana, F., et. al, 2020).

Research Focus
This study aims to find out how the interests, motivations, and constraints of online learning of students and whether there is a comparison of the interests, motivations, and learning constraints of SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib students with students of SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca while studying online during the covid-19 pandemic. The benefit of this research is to enrich scientific treasures and literacy in the field of education, especially during this pandemic massa. And also as an extension of advice to academics and the education office who are still trying to improve the education system, especially at SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib and at SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca. Therefore, the author is interested in following up on these problems to conduct a research entitled "Analysis of Students' Interests, Motivations, and Constraints to Online Learning During the Covid-19 Pandemic at Rikit Gaib High School and Pantan Cuaca High School.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
In this chapter, the researcher describes the results of the research obtained after conducting research at SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib, Rikit Gaib District and SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca, Pantan Cuaca District, located in Gayo Lues Regency. In this study, the subjects of the study were students of class XI science at SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib and students of class XI science at SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca, totaling 25 people from one school, so there were 50 students. So here the researcher shares a statement in the form of a questionnaire to students and the researcher asks for odd semester physics scores for students who are the object of this research, to find out the Interests, Motivations, and Constraints of Students Learning Online During the Covid-19 Pandemic at SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib and SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca.
On February 15, 2021, the researcher submitted a letter to the principal of SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib, and on February 16, 2021, the researcher submitted a letter to the SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca, to collect data at the school. Data collection in this study was carried out by distributing questionnaires directly to students of SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib and students of SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca. The research results can be seen as follows: After doing research and processing the data that has been formulated, it is answered how the Interests, Motivation, and Constraints of Online Learning of Students During the Covid-19 Pandemic at SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib and SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca, and there is a comparison of interests, motivations, and learning constraints of students SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib with students of SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca while studying online during the covid-19 pandemic, in conducting research on measuring instruments using a questionnaire in a written statement to students to answer. Online learning is an online learning activity, where teachers and students do not carry out a face-to-face learning system directly with the learning method using the internet.
SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib and SMA Negeri 1 Pantan cuaca are schools that also implement online learning during the covid-19 pandemic, students there are also not used to using online learning systems, therefore a lot has changed with changing levels of student interest and motivation, and there are several obstacles experienced by students, the SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib is more adequate with a network connection compared to the SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca, because of regional differences between SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib and SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca. Based on research data processing analysis of students' interests, motivations, and learning constraints online during the covid-19 pandemic at Rikit Gaib High School and Pantan Weather High School, it was obtained from 250 students of class XI taken 10% of 250 so that it became 25 students, from SMA Rikit Gaib 25 students of class XI and from SMA Pantanweather 25 students of class XI with 35 multiple choice statements.

Student learning interest
The average student interest in learning online at SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib, the average student choosing the answer agrees >50%, such as statement no. 6, which is I am excited to do assignments even though I study at home, this is because there is a sense of interest in learning online even though study at home. While the average student interest in learning online at SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca the average student chooses the answer agrees > 50%, such as statement no. 6 that I am passionate about doing assignments even though I study at home, this is because there is a sense of interest in learning online even though study at home. In contrast to the findings of previous research that student interest in learning is very influential due to Covid-19, students feel bored because they do not meet their friends and teachers directly (Cahyani, A., et. al., 2020;Marlinsa, et.al., 2021).

Student's motivation to study
Furthermore, the average student learning motivation online at SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib, the average student chooses an agreeable answer > 50%, such as statement no. 16, namely I do physics assignments seriously, this is because students are diligent in learning, even though they study hard. Online students are still serious in doing physics assignments. While the average student learning motivation online at SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca the average student chooses an agreeable answer > 50%, such as statement no 16 that I am ready to learn physics even though I face many difficulties, this is because students are tenacious in facing difficulties in learning online even though there are difficulties faced by students, they are still ready to learn physics (Mahzum, E., et.al, 2020). In contrast to previous research, the increase in students' learning motivation is 46.7%, this shows that there is an effect of CTL learning on students' learning motivation (Sastriani, E., & Halim, A., 2016;Fajria, F.,et. al., 2017)

Student Learning Constraints
The average student learning difficulties online at SMA Negeri 1 Rikit Gaib, the average student chooses an agreeable answer > 50%, I do physics assignments using whatsapp media even though it is hampered by the network, this is because students can learn properly learning online, even hampered by the network of students still working on assignments in earnest. While the average student learning difficulties online at SMA Negeri 1 Pantan Cuaca the average student chooses an agreeable answer > 50%, I do physics assignments using whatsapp media even though it is hampered by the network, this is because students can learn properly learning online, even though it is hampered by the network, students still work hard on assignments. This is in accordance with previous research, there is no significant relationship between the use of the internet as a learning resource and student learning outcomes in physics subjects .
