Abstract :
One of the problems in using English in Thai students is vocabulary limitation and the structure differences between English-Thai. This paper proposes a methodology to ease learning curve for English content by adding an English-Thai translation feature, including machine translation, in Thai open source learning management system called LearnSquare. This feature enables users to translate both in sentence level and word level.
