The Students’ Perception Of Edmodo For English Learning

Abstract

E-learning is used for information and communication technologies to enable access to online learning/teaching resources (Arkorful & Abaido, 2014). Edmodo, as e-learning-based media, could be used as an alternative platform to help the student as a tool in learning. This research was aimed at finding the students’ perception of Edmodo. Perception is how someone interprets something based on their senses (Linday & Norman, 1997). It is necessary to know how students’ perceptions know how great and successful it is and to know students’ views.  In this research, the researcher used a descriptive-quantitative approach. The samples were eighty-seven students of the eleventh grade at MAN 2 Model Banjarmasin. The researcher used a questionnaire and interview as the instruments. Edmodo is an optional media for teaching, but students still need face-to-face learning. The results showed that most students chose neither agree nor disagree with the statements, which means it does not cause any significant effect.
