alongside with technology and it comes into lot of various ways with aim of helping
processing data, include processing, obtain, compile, saving, and manipulating data
in various way to produce quality information, those are relevant, accurate, and on
time that can be used for private needs, business, government, and it is a strategic
information for making decision (Wardina, 2002). This technology use a set of
computer for processing data, network system to connect from one computer to
another according to the needs, also telecommunication technology use to the data
findings of modern students whose prefer to use technology and how does it affect
their learning, it turned out that the use of modern devices and technology improve

and fulfilling. The transfer of knowledge is become very easy, convenient, and
effective. This means that our mind is now works faster if supported by the digital
technology tools. Now those are part of most of human life including education.
People dependence on technological innovation that make their life easier and
smooth journey is inevitable in modern schools, Universities and colleges (Raja &
Nagasubramani. 2018). Students can discover a lot of aid, tutorials, and other forms
of assisting material on the internet, which they can utilise to academically develop
communication and Technology (ICT). ICT is all of technology related with taking,

by million of teachers and learners around the world include Indonesia. it aims to
empower taechers to help their students by combining quality learning content with

there is no pressures. Another research is found by Hurriyati and Arysandy (2018)
that Quipper School can boost students interest and make them reach the maximal
learning result. Students who learn with this media tend to be more passionate, since
there is lot of features can make the learning process funnier. Different with students
who do not using it, they seem not too interesting in learning and always want to
cheating to their friend. This is saw when the researcher did the observation about
students daily scores before using Quipper School where is the scores is around 65-
75, and after using Quipper School the scores is around 85-100.
Musmuliadi (2020) on his research found out the result of data analisi of
students’ response towards the use of Quipper School platform to aspect of use are
89% very good criteria, aspect of the display are 87% very good criteria, and
persentation material aspect are 90% very good criteria. With using Quipper School

LITERATURE REVIEW
In this Chapter, the researcher will explain some pertinent ideas, and
theoretical framework.
a. Learning Media
Media is a communication channel. Media comes from the Latin and is the
plural form of the word "medium" which literally means "intermediary". That is
the intermediary of the message source with the recipient of the message. The
example of these media are, such as films, computers, and instructor. Examples
students when using or utilizing media. For example when students watch learning
using CIA programs, read programmed instructions, read modules and so on.

occurs between teachers and students as a form of learning to achieve the purpose
The existence of learning media certainly plays a very important role in the
learning process, the benefits of this learning media are very helpful for teachers in
convey information to students. With the various type of learning media used by
the teacher in the teaching and learning process also provides new experiences to
students so that students can try things with media used by the teacher.
(Supriyanto, 2009).
Internet not only used for communication but also used as learning media.
Internet can help students doing their assignment and find new information.
With the availability of internet in school, students can improve their learning
activity, do the homework and adding their own insight. Do learning activity
c. Definition of E-Learning

Due to Mason and Rennei (2009) e-learning is a effective learning process
learning allows students to learn trough computer when they are in their own place
without any physical meeting needed. There are names that can use to describe e-
learning process such as online learning, virtual classroom, and web based
learning.

Darmawan (2012;12) stated this type of e-learning with all the superiorities
efforts all over Indonesia. As well known that spreading of quality of education in
Indonesia is not equal yet. There is big gab between one region to another.
Education in Java and Sumatra (west region of Indonesia) tend to be more onward
compared to East region of Indonesia. This kind of gab supposed to get more
serious attention from the government, e-learning can be a creative solution for
the government.
For more detail, the benefits of e-learning can be seen from two point of

Learning using e-learning has an important role in education and has a huge
advantages especially if linked with distance and limit of time in study, where
learning process can be done through electronic devices so that e-learning is much
on demand by the educator whose busy and has limit on time and distance to do the
learning process thus they can done the process using e-learning instead.

school can be accessed by users free of charge. In this case, the use of Quipper
schools in schools is defined as the tendency of students to use and utilize Quipper
School to support them in the learning process at school. To find out the tendency
of students to use Quipper School, it can be seen from the understanding of the
Quipper School system and the frequency with which students use Quipper school.

RESEARCH METHOD
A. Research Design
The research design use in this study is qualitative narrative research. This
research is aiming to find out how different people experience, in this case is
different experience using Quipper school. According to Gay, Mills, & Airasian
(2012), Narrative research is the study of how different humans experience the
world around them; it involves a methodology that allows people to tell the stories
of their “storied lives”. Qualitative research methods are based on different beliefs.

data into patterns to produce a descriptive, narrative synthesis. (Gay et al., 2012).

more about the perception of using Quipper School in English learning activity
from second grade students of SMA Negeri 8 Makassar. The students will be

B. Research Subject
The subject of this study are the year eleven students of SMA Negeri 8
Makassar. The researcher will choose 34 of the students from 11 IPS 2 of SMA
Negeri 8 Makassar. Then, the 34 of them will be divided into 3 small groups;
students from high score learner, students from middle score learner, and students
from low score learner. Reason why the researcher chose second grade students
as the object of the research because the year eleven or second grade is because
they have been using Quipper school for longer, since the first year, which means
their learning experience with Quipper school is more than students from 1st
grade. This can make the variable (perception) become more various.
C. Research Instrument
The instrument that used for data collection is interview. The interview aims
to gather the students perception about the use of Quipper School. According to
one person obtains information from another. Interviewers can explore and probe
participants’ responses to gather in-depth data about their experiences and feelings.
They can examine attitudes, interests, feelings, concerns, and values more easily.
1. The researcher will ask the homeroom teacher about the students score and
2. The researcher then divided the students into 3 groups based on their score.
19
3. The data collection procedure consists of interview questions. The questions
will be asked to the students in due to know about their thoughts of Quipper
and observations and synthesized them into narratives or stories. The stories is the
outcome of the research, an attempt by the researcher to answer how and why a
particular outcome came about. (Gay et al., 2012). Students response during the
interview will restorying and rewrite into narrative text as an outcome of this
research.
