The use of technology in or beyond classrooms has created a stupendous paradigm to bring down the classroom walls and open up for new and unique learning opportunities. With the plethora of materials and rich learning object repositories, LMSs gripped attention of many educational institutions in different levels. Although LMS has been heralded as a great platform to support learning, the impact of it on student achievement has always been under question. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between university students’ achievement in an English preparatory program and the use of LMS in language learning process. In a mixed-method design, quantitative data were collected from 321 students in the School of Foreign Languages, and qualitative data were gathered from interviews with 30 randomly selected students. The results revealed that the use of LMS had a much greater impact on midterm exams than the proficiency exam although it had an effect on both. The analyses of the interviews indicated that participants had mostly positive attitudes towards the use of LMS as they thought it contributed to their language learning processes.

学习管理系统对语言考试中学生成绩的影响

在教室内外使用技术已经创造了一个惊人的范例，可以推倒教室的墙，为新的独特学习机会敞开大门。大量的材料和丰富的学习对象资源库，LMS吸引了许多不同层次的教育机构的关注。尽管LMS被认为是支持学习的绝佳平台，但它对学生成绩的影响一直受到质疑。因此，本研究的目的是调查大学生在英语预科课程中的学习成绩与语言学习过程中LMS的使用之间的关系。在混合方法设计中，从外国语学院的321名学生中收集了定量数据，并从对30名随机选择的学生的访谈中收集了定性数据。结果表明，使用LMS对期中考试的影响比对熟练程度考试的影响大得多，尽管对两者都有影响。访谈的分析表明，参与者对LMS的使用持积极态度，因为他们认为LMS有助于他们的语言学习过程。
