Generally, a traditional approach is used in English Language Teaching in the Middle East and Sub-continent. During the last two decades, technological advancement has been unprecedented and transformational in all fields of life including education. The integration of technology in teaching and learning has been an important factor in the digitalization of the ways we learn. Educational organizations are offering online courses through virtual classrooms and a lot of faculties are adopting synchronous virtual classrooms that enable students to communicate with students regardless of space and time (Martin & Parker, 2014) . Technology has become an inevitable phenomenon in education, especially in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) that is the reason we can see most universities, schools and educational organizations are adopting online learning models. There has been a perception that technology is going to replace teachers in the classroom but it has been refuted by Krishna (2015) as he said that teachers will not be replaced by technology, but teachers who do not use technology will be replaced by those who do. The literature (Albadry, 2015; Alzaidiyeen, 2017; Cavus & Uzunboylu, 2009; Montrieux, Vanderlinde, Schellens,& De Marez, 2015; Stephens & Pantoja, 2016) shows that online learning platforms are highly useful for teaching inside and outside the classroom as they eliminate the factors of time and space. Educators are moving towards online platforms, and Google Classroom (GC) is one of them. Teachers can create, share material, and conduct quizzes on GC. The present study is an attempt to examine students’ attitude towards the integration of GC in the Preparatory Year English Program at Yanbu English Language Institute, Royal Commission Yanbu, Saudi Arabia.  \nSignificance of the Study  \nThe online learning platforms have been integrated into teaching and learning at educational institutes worldwide to provide students with better learning experiences by utilizing the available technologies.
