Amongst the various open source educational software, the Modular Object Oriented Developmental Learning Environment (MOODLE) seems to be the most user friendly having numerous features. This paper aims at investigating the usefulness of digital technologies imparted into a blended learning model for engineering education. The role of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) plays a wider role in teaching-learning activities like, content creation, administrative, formative-summative assessments, student's performance tracking, trainings, knowledge management and knowledge organization. In addition, the technical features of ICT allow us to customize to meet the demands of an institution. Considering the recent major shifts in the learning paradigm, these innovations were deployed in an ongoing, real time basis in our educational campus. Technology based virtual learning approach was aimed at stimulating students' interest in learning engineering curriculum; consequently its effectiveness was statistically evaluated. Finally, this research report is aimed at summarizing the ways in which ICT is used, and how it creates new learning opportunities both online and off line. © 2014 IEEE.
