This paper investigates the use of free LSM tools in language learning, particularly for EFL and content-based classrooms. The study is based on the use of free LMSs in two schools: UNICA, a bilingual university in Bogotá, Colombia and Round Table, an English language school in Shanghai, China. This paper investigates not only the tools offered in Moodles, Yahoo Groups, and Nicenet, but also how these tools create value for the teaching and learning of English.
