The research aimed to find what platform is suitable in higher education and how lecturers create particular activity using HOTs to make students to think creatively. It also underlined that this new platform provides useful options that not only offers material delivery features but also an interactive communication feature. There were selected 10 lecturers of ELT in higher education level being interviewed and separated into two group users of structured and unstructured digital learning models. The distribution was based on their experience on teaching English using both models. This study analyzed interviews with lecturers who are experienced in usage of structured and unstructured online Learning platform. The findings were discussed by resuming and then drawing the conclusion through interpreting the findings. The findings from these data illustrated that these new learning patterns had a significant impact on students' cognitive and psychomotor abilities.
