Using the Internet to learn a language creates wide opportunities to enhance learning (Association of teachers of
English in Catalonia (APAC), 2010). The Internet activities promote learners’ self-monitoring ability, encourage
the use of multimedia and network technology, and develop students’ cooperation and participation. During the
latest years, there have been many changes in education as these new technologies, including VLEs (Virtual
Learning Environments), which have become an important part in the teaching/learning process. According to Tech
Terms Computer Dictionary (2012), VLE is a virtual classroom where teachers and students communicate. VLEs
have evolved as at an early stage, they were only ways of transmitting information: Teachers uploaded the
multimedia resources and students read this information. At a higher stage, VLEs have become interactive. This
means that students become active. We have designed a virtual environment where students, weekly, must
contribute their opinions and comments in response to a required activity uploaded by the teacher. In this paper, we
describe this weekly task and analyze students’ opinion about this planned activity. The students become an active
subject in this field. In this paper, we show how VLEs are no longer a means of transmitting information but a
means of interaction as well as a way of motivating our students to be involved in their learning process. [-]
