Abstract

Rapidly developing technology plays an important role in the innovation of education. Learning Management System (LMS) websites are one of the most recent innovations. This study investigates teachers' perception towards the use of Quipper School (QS), one of popular LMS websites in teaching English. A semi-structured interview was designed to find out how three English teachers in Indonesia perceive the use of the media. To analyze the obtained data from the interview, qualitative content analysis was used. The results show that the participants have positive attitude towards the use of QS. Technically, QS is perceived to be a good and motivating ELT media. However, QS has not been designed to facilitate the teaching of speaking.
