This study was descriptive qualitative research with second-semester students as the subjects of the study. They were students from the English department taking Structure 2 as the compulsory subject.

The questionnaire was used to do a survey. The results show that the materials uploaded in the LMS are useful to help students understand English Grammar, especially for the topic taught in the second semester. Furthermore, the use of quiz features in LMS can motivate them to learn since they can know the results and the correct answer directly from the LMS. It also can increase students' confidence when doing the same test. However, it was found that the use of LMS cannot replace the direct explanation method from the teacher which is still stated as an effective way of teaching English Grammar subjects.

<p>This study aimed to determine whether the use of e-Learning Management System (eLMS) software for a two-grading period could enhance the English grammar proficiency of the grade six pupils of the University of the Immaculate Conception. This investigation employed a pretest posttest control group design that involved 40 pupils in each of the classes utilized in the study. Findings revealed that post tests scores were significantly higher than pretest scores in both the control and experimental groups. However, no significant differences in the post test scores, as well as in the gain scores, between the control and the experimental groups were established. Hence, the use of both (eLMS) e-Learning Management System and traditional approach as strategies in teaching are helpful in the acquisition and enhancement of the pupils’ English grammar proficiency.</p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Language, experimental, eLMS, grammar proficiency, UIC, Davao City, Philippines.</p>

The integration and application of Information Communication Technology in language teaching has become more and more prevalent in the era of 4.0, which has brought about a lot of significant influences on students’ language learning. However, having a self-led online tool which is appropriate to one’s students’ backgrounds and is free and open-access in a school in a mountainous area in a developing country like Vietnam has not yet been so popular. In the present study, for the purpose of enhancing students’ learning, online grammar exercises for 10th graders at Thai Nguyen High School, Thai Nguyen province, Vietnam, were designed in a learning management system called Chamilo. The study investigated the benefits of the platform towards students’ grammar learning achievements by identifying the changes in students’ scores as well as sought evaluative feedback from teachers and students as the users of the tool. The research instruments included a grammar test in the pre-intervention and after-intervention combined with two questionnaires for eight teachers and twenty students at grade 10 and interviews with the focus group of 5 students.  The findings suggested a remarkable improvement in students’ post-test score and a significant relationship between the practice of online exercises and students’ grammar results. Furthermore, positive responses from the teachers and students on such use of the platform indicated that Chamilo could be used as learning tools to enhance students’ grammar learning.
