| Summary: | The unprecedented global pandemic Covid-19 has changed our lives. The pandemic has also impacted the
education sector. The significant change of educational methods from face-to-face learning to e-learning has
undoubtedly resulted in a significant impact on the perceptions and effectiveness of e-learning among English
language learners. This research is to ascertain the perceptions and effectiveness of learning English via elearning
through online surveys involving 337 students from a public university in Malaysia. The result on
perceptions indicates that flexibility, freedom and interactivity are the reasons why students have positive
inclinations towards e-learning, whilst less interaction with teachers, technical problems, and lack of conducive
learning experience are the negative perceptions indicated by respondents. The result on the effectiveness of
learning English via e-learning shows those students responded positively in learning writing, reading, listening
and speaking. Generally, students were both impartial, and enjoyed e-learning. It is hoped that this research
would broaden and widen the spectrum of e-learning among students during the pandemic. |
