Schools, colleges and universities are now embracing the use of visual aid presentation (e.g., PowerPoint) in the classroom. Studies have consistently indicated that students generally believed that the use of technology for oral presentation would facilitate their learning. Students in such condition believed that the class was more organized, clear and interesting. Students also liked the teacher/lecturer more and indicated that they would like to take another class from the teacher/lecturer when the he or she used technology means of presentation. This research is focusing on the perspective of students in Binus University regarding the advantages or disadvantages of this model of learning process in regard of interesting or boring, long or short endurance of understanding, and improving academic performance or the other way around. The visual aid presentation here means that the students are the ones who are performing the presentation, instead of the teacher/lecturer. The research method used is descriptive qualitative based on the survey and interview of some sample students who were chosen randomly, who were taking English course in first/second semester. Based on some researches, the visual aid presentation in learning process was showing positive impact for teachers and students. Therefore, the hypothesis on this research is that the visual aid presentation on learning process will bring an interesting environment, long endurance of understanding and improving students score. It is expected that the result of this research can be used to improve the learning method of English learning in Binus University in order to support Binus Vision to be a global university and to enrich graduates with the skill of oral presentation.
