Abstract/Summary

This study on the development and use of interactive online materials in language learning looks into the process of conceptualizing, designing, validating and using the said materials to develop grammatical and discoursal competence. The value of utilizing online materials to achieve desired learning outcomes was emphasized as well as the process of producing and validating said materials.

The study finds out the assessment of the two groups of respondents, namely, the teachers and the students, of the finalized online materials as regards the goal to promote high motivation, increased interaction, high cognitive skill, learner autonomy and cooperative learning. It also seeks to determine the curriculum, instructional, cosmetic and program adequacy of the materials produced and finds out the extent to which they would develop the proficiency of students in the correct use of verb tenses and their discourse competence.
