Evaluation of Sequenced and Unsequenced English for Science and Technology Materials on a Web-Based Learning Content Management System Platform

This study evaluated sequenced online EST materials and unsequenced online EST materials by using a Learning Object Review Instrument (LORI) amongst-SPM students in Seri Kembangan, Selangor Darul Ehsan. The study also analyzed the materials design aspects of sequenced and unsequenced EST materials....
