| Research Abstract |
We developed e-learning content for studying English for medical purposes with the use of Moodle, an open source Learning Management System. The questionnaire results about the content revealed that the content helped enhance students' autonomous learning and their collaborative learning. Further analysis using a learning environment instrument indicated firstly, that provision of technical support is crucial in ensuring on-going learner engagement. Secondly, Moodle-based materials created for students with a high degree of interactivity and feedback are most valued. Thirdly, materials created for learners should be graphic rich and visually appealing. Finally, the enhancement of traditional courses by providing access to digital materials is appreciated by the students.
