Abstract: The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) has shifted education from traditional methods to e-learning, which may be influenced by factors such as internet connectivity, learner environment, and student emotions.This study investigates how these factors affect e-learning effectiveness among 350 university students from the Faculty of Business and Communication (FPK) at Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP).Data was collected through self-administered questionnaires using simple random sampling.Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis were applied to assess the relationships between the variables.The results revealed that internet connectivity (r = 0.502) and student emotions (r = 0.548) significantly impact e-learning effectiveness, while the learner environment demonstrated no significant influence.Multiple regression analysis confirmed that internet connectivity (β = 0.231) and student emotions (β = 0.350) are key contributors to e-learning success, explaining 33.8% of the variance.The findings highlight the importance of ensuring stable internet access and addressing students' emotional well-being for effective online learning.Recommendations include enhancing internet infrastructure and providing emotional support to optimise the e-learning experience.This study offers valuable insights into e-learning challenges during the pandemic, emphasising the need for institutions to prioritise technology and mental health resources to improve learning outcomes.
