The study aimed to investigate participants' perceptions of online distance learning during Covid-19 Pandemic for empowering them to achieve ISTE standards within EFL classroom. 60 undergraduate students participated in this study through responding to a designed online survey based on ISTE standards. Data analysis indicated that the participants had a positive attitude of online distance learning which empowered them to develop high scores of creativity and innovation, communication and collaboration, research and information fluency, critical thinking, problem-solving, decision-making and digital citizenship. The results also showed that majority of respondents (86.66%) acquired language proficiency successfully through online distance learning which indicated a flexible and suitable learning environment. However, the findings indicated few drawbacks of online distance learning due to technical problems and the lack of physical interactions.
