tional institutions such as schools, (Hubalovsky et al.,
2019), training institutes, universities and industries
(Cisco Systems, IBM, HP, Oracle, and others) (Cidral
et al., 2018). E-Learning is a type of learning sys-
tem allowing the provision of teaching materials to
students by using the Internet, Intranet or other com-
puter network media and mobile devices (m-learning)
(Amasha and AbdElrazek, 2016). E-Learning offers
a new hope as an alternative solution for most of the
problems in education in Indonesia. Its functions can
be tailored to the needs, both as a complementary
(supplementary) or substitute for classroom learning
activities as long as it is used.
Producing interesting and attractive e-learning re-
quires three conditions that must be fulfilled in de-
signing e-learning, namely simple, personal, and fast.
A simple system will make it easier for students to
use existing technology and menus. The introduction
of e-learning system will be reduced by the ease of the
panel provided, so that the students’ learning time can
be efficient for the learning process, not for learning
to use e-learning system. Personal requirements mean
that the teacher can interact well as if he communi-
cates with students in front of the class. With a more
personal approach and interaction, the teacher can ob-
serve the students’ learning progress and the teacher
can help the students with all their problems. As a re-
sult, students feel at home for a long time in front of
the computer screen. Furthermore, this service is sup-
ported by speed, rapid response to complaints and the
needs of other students. Thus, learning can be done
as quickly as possible by the instructor or manager.
Moodle is a name for an application program that
can transform a learning media into a web form. This
application allows students to enter the ”digital class-
rooms” to access learning materials. By using Moo-
dle, we can create learning materials, quizzes, elec-
tronic journals and others. Moodle stands for Modu-
lar Object Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment.
Moodle is a Course Management System (CMS)
application that is free downloaded, used or modified
by anyone with a GNU (General Public License) li-
cense. The Moodle application was first developed by
Martin Dougiamas in August 2002 with Moodle Ver-
sion 1.0. Currently, Moodle can be used by anyone
on Open Source. (Oproiu, 2015) examined the use
of the E-Moodle Learning Platform as a learning re-
source, as a means of evaluating teaching and learning
in addition to the traditional teaching, learning meth-
ods and assessment at OLITEHNICA University of
Bucharest. Moreover, Rosenberg (2001) emphasizes
that e-learning refers to the use of internet technology
to send a series of solutions that can improve knowl-
edge and skills.
Haughey (Rusman, 2007) states his opinion on e-
learning development. He asserts that there are three
possibilities in the development of an internet-based
learning system; they are the web course, web centric
course, and a web enhanced course.
Web course means using the internet for educa-
tional purposes, in which students or lecturers are
completely separate and there is no need for face-
to-face meetings. All teaching materials, discus-
sions, consultations, assignments, exercises, exami-
nations, and other learning activities are fully con-
veyed through the internet. In other words, this model
uses a remote system.
Meanwhile, web centric course refers to imple-
menting the internet which combines distance learn-
ing and face to face (conventional) learning. Some
materials are delivered via the internet and some are
given through face to face. Its function is complemen-
tary. In this model the lecturer can give instructions
to students to study lecture materials through the web
they have made. Students are also given direction to
find other sources from relevant sites. In face-to-face
meetings, students and lecturers have more discus-
sion about the findings of the material that has been
learned through the internet.
Then, web enhanced course is defined as the use of
the internet to support the improvement of the learn-
ing quality carried out in the classroom. The func-
tion of internet is to provide enrichment and commu-
nication between students and lecturers, fellow stu-
dents, group members, or students with other speak-
ers. Therefore, the lecturer in this case is required to
master the technique of searching for information on
the internet, to guide students to seek and find sites
that are relevant to lecture materials, to present in-
teresting and motivating materials through the web,
to serve the guidance and communication through
the internet, and other skills needed. The concept
of E-learning is to bring the influence of the pro-
cess of transforming conventional education into dig-
ital form. Presently, this concept has been widely ac-
cepted by the world community, as evidenced by the
widespread implementation of e-Learning in educa-
tional institutions (Kovacova and Vackova, 2015). For
years, all of the learning processes occured at Univer-
sitas Islam Riau still apply Conventional method. In
other words, the learning process between lecturers
and students can only be done by meeting with the
condition that there is an interaction between lectur-
ers and students in the class.
In addition, the process of transferring knowledge
is almost entirely conducted in the classroom; this
causes the transfer of knowledge will be interrupted if
the meeting does not occur. This situation clearly hin-
