dc.description.abstractThis research explores the perspectives of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students about using Learning Management System (LMS)-based reading logs as a measure to encourage extensive reading in the digital age. An online questionnaire was administered to 125 third-year English majors at a public university in central Vietnam to examine their attitudes, preferences, and perceptions of benefits as well as challenges associated with LMS-based reading logs. The findings show that most students had positive attitudes toward LMS-based reading logs, emphasizing benefits like improving their reading skills, enhancing positive reading habits, enhancing self-study skills, and increasing their learning motivation. However, students faced several challenges when making LMS-based reading logs, including time constraints, workload, lack of cognitive skills for reflection, self-discipline issues, and insufficient teacher support and feedback. These problems can suggest some further improvements to increase the effectiveness of applying this kind of activity in EFL reading courses.
