Abstract

In order to obtain the feedback of students perception on delivered e-learning course, we have conducted a survey. The survey focused on the virtual programming lab (VPL) for the electrical power system course. The VPL is an activity module for Moodle that manages programming assignments. The survey consists of two ways, online and offline. As the online survey, the Constructivist On-Line Learning Environment Survey is used from general aspect on the course, while the offline survey is originally designed to obtain the students perception on VPL as an e-learning tool. The results of offline survey show that VPL has strength on free-of-charge characteristics and has weakness on it build-in editor. Also ones of online survey show that the interactivity among students have strength related by preferred and actual condition of the relevance and reflective thinking.
