The Computer Systems and Networks course demands a deep visual and procedural understanding, such as the use of the Command Line Interface (CLI), as well as troubleshooting installation and configuration on web servers and database servers. This study aims to analyze student perceptions of using YouTube video tutorials as a supporting learning medium for the Computer Systems and Networks course. Employing a descriptive quantitative approach based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) framework, this research measures two main dimensions: Perceived Ease of Use and Perceived Usefulness. Data were collected using a 1–5 Likert scale questionnaire distributed to 50 students enrolled in the computer network practicum course. The results indicated that student perceptions fell into the "High" category, with an average score of 3.81 (76.8%) for Perceived Ease of Use and 3.72 (74.32%) for Perceived Usefulness. Cross-device access flexibility (smartphones/laptops) and overall utility as a primary supporting medium were identified as key factors enhancing students' practical independence and self-efficacy. The implications of this study suggest the integration of structured video playlists as official complementary media within vocational and engineering practicum modules.
