Abstract: This research investigated students online learning technology usability, considering the impact of a remote learning experience, quality of remote learning experience, infrastructure for remote teaching and learning, methods for remote teaching and learning, environment for remote teaching and learning, and wellbeing antecedents. For instance, the remote learning experience among students during movement control order in a Malaysian university recorded 68.91% unfavourable and 31.09% favourable levels in this research. The study opted for both quantitative researches of survey type and qualitative methods, which utilised an online questionnaire titled student's online learning experiences questionnaire of both close and open-ended questions. The findings suggest that most students felt the online learning was unfavourable. The study recommends that the university endeavours to provide adequate and quality resources to support the standard of student's online learning. This research suggests further adoption of this enquiry model for technology usability studies as it has not been optimally explored.
