This paper presents a description of a technology-based English learning in an Indonesian context project completed by rural high school students. It employed a descriptive qualitative research method in a class consisting of 35 students. The data were collected from videotaped observations, interviews with participant representatives, and questionnaires administered to all participants. The project-based instruction (PBL) was implemented in five sessions, with videos uploaded to YouTube as the final product. The paper revealed that the students completed the project satisfactorily and showed their positive attitudes towards the assigned project. Moreover, they claimed that learning using PBL was challenging, motivating, engaging, enhancing their English, and increasing their creativity. During the videomaking phase, some problems were encountered; however, they considered them as challenges to become better at using English. To conclude, it is advisable for EFL teachers to implement PBL integrating ICT. Additionally, at the end of the research, some recommendations for future similar studies are proposed.
