Abstract :
E-learning has become increasingly popular during the crisis pandemic.
From the shifting learning methods face-to-face to virtual classrooms, it is
important to examine students' positive perceptions of e-learning in EFL virtual
classroom. For this research, the qualitative approach has been adopted with five
students last semester in one of Institutions in Indonesian. Data collection method
was questionnaire and interview which was analyzed in critical discourse analysis
from four themes of research, namely perceived usefulness, perceived self-
efficacy, perceived ease, and behavioral intention of using e-learning. The result
showed that students' acceptance of e-learning as a new learning method has many
positive effects to the students, such as could be done anywhere and anytime,
added skills in mastering future-oriented technology equipment, made students
feel comfortable, accessible, and available for the applications; and provided
availability of electronic books on various official websites. Although students
gained confidence, benefits, and many conveniences, the findings showed a lack
of e-learning in behavioral intention theme namely deficiency of interaction and
feedback between students and teachers and too much material presentation. In
addition, it offers benefits for policy-makers, designers, and developers to know
more about the key aspects of the successful use of e-learning in the future.
