Abstract

Online learning has become a more popular learning system in higher education especially in Indonesia. Previous research studies on online learning system had been carried out, nonetheless most of them revealed the result of its system in general but none focused on the specific course. By using a narrative discourse approach, this study aims to find out the type of appraisal used by students joining English Professional Course at BINUS Online Learning, to reveal the evaluative meaning of students’ appraisals on the course and to find out the impacts of students’ appraisals toward the development of the English Professional Course. WhatsApp (WA) was used as the media to get the data from six students joining the course from six different learning centres. Appraisal theory is used as the approach to analyse the data. The results shows that students’ attitude toward the course is more on positive feelings than the negative ones and some critics have impacts toward the development of the course.
