Description:This article is aimed at presenting the results of managing a virtual learning environment among two groups of the course LM-1245 English Composition II at the University of Costa Rica. This is a second-year writing course that belongs to the English Major, which has a high level of difficulty due to the transition between writing an academic paragraph to essays with three rhetorical patterns. A asynchronous virtual classroom was managed with various Web 2.0 tools and resources on the UCR platform known as Mediación Virtual (Moodle). Finally, the writer observes the results of two survey questionnaires to assess the students’ perceptions at the beginning and at the end of the e-course. This article also includes a sample e-lesson used in such a course.
