The study aims to describe a research s tudy which involves the implementation of localised digital learning objects using open educational resources and to share the findings obtained as well as the student teachers' perceptions on the effectiveness of the learning objects. The digital learning objects were developed from various open educational resources which include animation, audios, photos, graphics and video creation. The project was conducted in a primary school located in the area of Ranau in Sa bah. Forty-five ( 45) students from Year 1 to Year 3 classes as well a s a group of 9 student teachers from University Malaysia Sabah's TESL programme were involved in the study. Data was collected by using both quantitative and qualitative instruments which comprised of pre and post-tests, interview sessions and survey questionnaire. Findings revealed that there is a significant difference in the mean scores of students learning of vocabulary taught with localised digital learning objects. Discussions on how localised digital learning objects helped in enhancing vocabulary learning were also presented and the perceptions of the student teachers who were directly involved in the designed and implementation of the localised digital learning objects.
