Abstract

This study investigates two main issues, they are; first, about university students’ learning experiences, perception, and expectation about issues related to the contents, that is intercultural communication; and learning methodology, particularly blended learning. At the second place, it is about how the high schools English teacher implements One Click Service (OCS) as online learning system in teaching EFL learners. Learning through ICT in higher education has been starting to apply, but only few schools apply online learning system for the students in teaching and learning.And about the blended learning strategy applied in the course, students find it interesting to motivate their learning activities because the media used is similar to social media that have been very familiar with their daily life. On the other hand, in high schools, it showed that the use of OCS was still ineffective for teaching even though the teacher had gained good ICT competence.
