Abstract

This research was conducted to investigate students' experiences with using the features in the Learning Management System (LMS). The subjects of this research are fourth-semester students from the English Education Study Program at the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Universitas Muhammadiyah Palu. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods. The instruments used were questionnaires, interviews, and observation checklists. Questionnaires are used to guide researchers in administering questionnaires to students or subjects. Furthermore, the interviews are used to strengthen the results obtained from questionnaires administered to students by researchers. The final instrument is an observation checklist. The researchers conducted observations on students directly in the classroom and outside the classroom. The research results show that the LMS features most frequently used by students are the notification feature, the assignment upload feature, the attendance list feature, the search feature, the change account feature, and the 'My Class' feature. Meanwhile, there is a student response to the current LMS display, namely that it needs to be improved for the convenience of future LMS users.
