A learning portal is a concept designed to help the self-studying process, in which the problem-based learning is emphasized. The portal collects information from many sources and arranges the content in a way that encourages self-studying. In this research, we developed a web learning portal, where users can access the contents from anywhere at any time. The usage and the development of a video conference package were chosen as our contents. The portal is designed to provide both interactive contents and the programming exercises. The learners can easily gain a basic knowledge of how a video conference package is developed. In other words, we provide a self access learning center for engineering students. A pre-test/post-test method was used to evaluate the effectiveness of an unsupervised learning process. The evaluation results are favorable.
