Abstract
In recent years, the rapid development of technology and internet has led to the swift change of the learning pattern of various industries and education systems. E-learning and learning management system cooperated with one another, facilitated synchronize and desynchronize ways of learning and comprised a part of the emerging digital learning. Through the process of learning, students’ flow experience and learning experience are largely affected by the design of learning management system interface and usability. This study aims at resolving the effects of usability of learning management system on students’ flow experience and learning experience. The result indicates that the six aspects of usability are highly correlated to the four aspects of flow experience and the four aspects of learning experience. It is found that the consistency of content, consistent arrangement and item positioning, comfortable and well-organized layout can help the students to execute scheduled goals and
