Abstract:
The main purpose of this study is to develop the online language learning center
for three users: professionals, users, and the administrator. The professionals then can
add, remove, and adjust the lesson and the test content. For the users, they students
can also register, practice, and study each lesson. The administrator can also add
remove or adjust any information.
The online language learning system was developed by using PHP program and
MySQL database. The Black box Testing was also utilized in order to assess the
effectiveness of this online language learning system. This assessment was taken by
the professionals, the university teachers from Foreign Language Department at
Mahidol University (N = 4) and users, the second-year science students at Mahidol
University (N = 19). The statistics used in this study were Means, Standard Deviation,
Frequency, and One-Sample T-Test.
The result of the efficient evaluated by experts showed that the level of system
implementation efficiency was at the high level, (H0 : μ = 4.50, H1 : μ > 4.50, n = 4, X
= 4.656, SD = 0.477, t-test = 4.843, α > 0.05) and the level of satisfaction evaluated by
the general users was also at the high level, (H0 : μ = 3.50, H1 : μ > 3.50, n = 15, X
= 4.277, SD = 0.642, t-test = 4.686, α > 0.05). So this online language learning
system could be used for foreign language learning and teaching at the university level.
