Participants of this study were 229 English language learners in B1 level, 113 of whom are experimental group in 5 classes and 116 of whom are control group in 5 classes. Learners in experimental group followed a course design based on cooperative online activities and tasks for fifteen weeks. For data collection, a proficiency test named ALCPT was administered to learners at the beginning and end of the term as a pre-test and post-test. Cronbach alpha level of the test was found to be, 98. Reading, writing, listening, speaking, vocabulary and grammar achievement tests were implemented at the end of the semester. Data were analyzed with the help of SPSS 20 by employing descriptive and inferential statistics. Test of normality and homogeneity were calculated by applying Kolmogorov-Smirnova and Levene Statistic respectively. Results showed experimental group were significantly different in their proficiency test scores although there was no significant difference between control group and experimental group at the beginning of the semester in their pre- test proficiency test scores. Achievement test scores revealed that learners in experimental group did significantly better in listening, reading, writing and vocabulary achievement tests. However, there weren’t significant differences in speaking and grammar achievement tests between two groups..
