Education across Indonesia has declared a lockdown temporarily due to Covid 19 pandemic. E-learning
was forced to be conducted to fulfil the education objectives. Sekolah Tinggi Maritim Yogyakarta

academic delivery. Virtual class named as V-class as a Moodle-based platform was the way forward.
This study was aimed to gain an effective information on cadets perception toward the implementation
of V-class specifically on the use of Maritime English Quiz- based instruction. Further it aimed to find
correlation between cadets perception on V-class and cadets final score on quiz. The respondents were
45 cadets of Nautical Science and Ship Machinery Departments of Academic year 2020/2021.
Descriptive statistics and bivariate correlation test were performed to analyze the collected data. The
study revealed that cadets perception on STIMARYO V-class through the quiz-based instruction in
Maritime English was satisfying. Thus, it led them to be self- directed learners that affected their
learning motivation. Although it was medium correlation of r =0,464, p=0,004, it proved that cadets
perception contributes to their learning success. Eventhough some drawbacks were also existed, in
pandemic situation, they were normal to occur.
