Banyak sekolah dan universitas termasuk Universitas Negeri Malang (UM) tidak dapat melanjutkan pertemuan tatap muka, sehingga perkuliahan secara daring menjadi alternatif yang dipilih. Akan tetapi, oleh karena sistem pendidikan di Indonesia cenderung menggunakan sistem konvensional, perkuliahan daring menghadirkan berbagai tantangan. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini didesain untuk mencermati implementasi dari perkuliahan daring. Secara spesifik, penelitian ini meneliti persepsi mahasiswa Program Studi Pendidikan Bahasa Inggris tentang pelaksanaan perkuliahan daring yang mereka telah jalani selama pandemi ini melalui media WhatsApp. Dengan menyebarkan angket dan menganalisa data secara kuantitatif deskriptif, hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa memiliki respon positif terhadap proses belajar mengajar daring melalui WhatsApp. Namun, tidak dapat dipungkiri bahwa mereka tetap membutuhkan interaksi langsung dengan dosen yang tidak dapat diperoleh melalui kelas daring ini. Dari penelitian ini dapat diambil kesimpulan bahwa WhatsApp sebagai media pendukung terbukti efektif dalam menggantikan kegiatan pembelajaran offline sebagaimana dipersepsikan oleh mahasiswa yang berpartisipasi dalam penelitian ini.
