Abstract: Electronic resource pedagogic methods (E-pedagogic methods) increase collaboration, learner autonomy, peer teaching/learning, creativity and participation in the curriculum. Student’s centred activities motivate goal oriented behaviour amongst learners hence improve learner’s achievement. Interactive pedagogies foster cooperation which leads to better teacher/student relationship during learning. Despite technological developments in education, there was little empirical evidence on use of e-pedagogic methods in learning of English language in Kakamega County, Kenya. These methods include learner-centred method, teacher-centred method and mixed method. Specific objective of the study was to: Examine e-pedagogic methods on use in learning of English language in public secondary schools in Kakamega County, Kenya. The study found out that 72.4% teachers of English supported that learner-centred method which used e-resources improved learning outcomes. Moreover, classroom communication, collaboration, cooperation and interaction were more effective than knowledge reproduction approaches. Based on the findings the study recommended that secondary schools should emphasize on learner – centred method which uses electronic resources (e-resources) in learning process. The study would contribute to development of the teacher in regard to learner – centred method which uses e-resources so as the teacher acts as a facilitator of communication process by creating opportunities for learner to participate. It will also provide additional information in formulating policies to enhance formation of societies such as E-resource Pedagogic Methods Society (EPMS) to showcase self – learning, peer – learning and discovery learning to encourage learners to develop critical thinking skills, creativity and autonomy in learning process.
