The respondents selected for this study were students at several universities in Sumatra, from a total population of 1000 with a sample size of 200. The data analysis technique used in this research is Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS- SEM) to develop a model that describes the relationship between variables. The results of this study show that, in the first hypothesis, the use of e-learning has a P value of 0.000, which indicates a significant influence on student learning motivation. In the second hypothesis, the use of e-learning has a P value of 0.000, which also shows a significant influence on student engagement. The third hypothesis, interpersonal communication has a P value of 0.000, which indicates a significant influence on student learning motivation. The fourth hypothesis, interpersonal communication has a P value of 0.000, which shows a significant effect on student engagement.
