This research is involved with the development of a web based Course Management System to provide a platform, in learning and gaining knowledge in the field of Chemistry subject for secondary school. It is an alternative way for the students and teachers to communicate and create learning collaboration outside the classroom. The first objective of this research is to investigate the various types of systems to support e-learning. Second is to develop a Course Management System to secondary school in Johor, and the third objective is to evaluate the effectiveness, satisfaction on the modules and student’s acceptance of the system as a new alternative method in learning. Eventually, this web based learning system is developed by utilizing the Claroline open source e-learning software that was developed based on ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) model. It is believed that the developed CrMS is an approach to facilitate and enhance learning for personnel involved in Chemistry subject through computer and communication technology.
