Frog VLE is an educational innovation that uses multimedia materials to support student learning. The purpose of this study was to determine students' knowledge and skills regarding the use of Frog VLE in mathematics learning. 150 fifth-year students were chosen at random to be the respondents of the study. The research instrument is a set of questionnaires with consist of three constructs that include knowledge, skills, and use of the Frog VLE. The descriptive statistics, t-test, and Pearson correlation were used to analyse the data which was conducted using SPSS 23.0 software. The findings of this study revealed that Frog VLE knowledge and skills are at a moderate level among the respondents. The t-test result indicated that there was a significant difference in knowledge of how to use Frog VLE based on gender, but there was no significance difference in skills of how to use Frog VLE based on gender. Pearson correlation test results show a strong and significant positive relationship between Frog VLE knowledge and skills and Frog VLE use in mathematics learning. The findings show that the greater a student's knowledge and skills of Frog VLE, the greater his or her use of Frog VLE in mathematics learning. These implies that using ICT in mathematics teachings requires students’ knowledge in skill in order to enhance students’ learning.
