Abstract


The implementation of e-learning is not only seen from the perspective of the teacher but also students as a subject of learning. This study is aimed to reveal the relationship between Internal Locus of Control (ILC) and students' perceptions of e-learning. Both of these factors support the success of e-learning implementation from the student's factor. These factors are a consideration in designing an e-learning. The type of this research is a quantitative correlation study. The population was students that study Biology subject in Senior High School of Pariaman city. The sample was chosen by random sampling technique. Data were collected using questionnaires filled by 158 students. These data were analyzed by correlation techniques. The results of this study showed that there was a positive relationship between ILC and students' perceptions of e-learning. Students always try to think effectively and have a relatively high perception of e-learning.
