Research Abstract

A basic medical ESP course was designed as a blended learning, project-based course fully supported by ICT. It was implemented using materials developed for the first year students majoring in radiological technology. From the Activity Theory perspective, the outcomes of this experimental course revealed that students' perception shifted gradually from "English as knowledge to be obtained" to one of "English as communication tool to be used" to meet the goal of an activity. Significantly, the students were able to introduce diseases using a range of English medical terms.
