The document proposes creating a Versatile Learning Resource Center (VLRC) using an open-source learning environment to enhance English language learning. The VLRC would provide students tools to learn English anywhere, anytime through accessible online activities, forums, and resources. It would allow immersive, learner-centered learning by doing. The proposal calls for establishing an English lab with computers and internet access to implement the VLRC, which would connect students through interaction and conversation to foster autonomous yet enjoyable self-directed learning.
