This paper investigates factors that influence of online learning classes participating and students’ academic performance amidst the Covid-19 pandemic in Malaysian public universities.

Specifically concentrating on a public university in Malaysia, the research underscores the pivotal role of online learning modalities during the pandemic. The findings offer valuable insights into the determinants that shape students’ academic achievements through their engagement with online learning tools during this global health crisis. This study marks a pioneering effort in exploring the nexus between online learning adoption and academic performance during the Covid-19 pandemic.
