Abstract: The educational potential of virtual worlds has been recognized by educators for potential pedagogical opportunities and as an alternative immersive learning space for students. The alignment of the objectives for learning activities and content with both the standard and the assessment is crucial so that teachers will know what they should do for their course plan. This paper analyzes and studies the possibilities of a virtual learning environment designed towards improving EFL students’ English language competency. A total of 362 students of a technological university participated in this study. Bloom’s Taxonomy model was used to measure student levels of learning. The results indicated that there was a significant difference in the scores of English learning between the pre-test and the post test. Students acknowledged the perceived advantages of using the virtual learning environment and agreed that virtual world learning activities can be meaningful to them.
