This paper is aimed at examining the use of blended learning and how it affects students' score in examination. Basic Movement Therapy (BMT) Digital Learning was constructed and developed based on multimedia design guidelines. A quasi-experimental design using two groups with pre-test post-test approach was used. A total of 103 students from the Universiti Kuala Lumpur, RCMP (Royal College Medical, Perak) were divided in two groups. The Control group received standard teaching sessions (N=51). The Treatment group received the same standard sessions but additionally used BMT Digital Learning application (N=52). Written test on basic movement therapy was done by students before and after intervention. Statistically significant better scores for the treatment group were noted. The results suggest that the use of BMT Digital Learning application was suitable for practical procedure purposes.
