This study investigated to what degree students can be autonomous in EFL classroom by deploying different digital technologies, including <i>Google Form, Quizizz, Quizlet, Kahoot!</i>, and <i>Socrative</i>, and the efficacy of these tools in online English classrooms. Utilizing a quasi-experimental research design, a sample of 48 first-year railway mechanical technology students from an Indonesian polytechnic was used and assigned to control and experimental groups. Data was gathered through a survey questionnaire and two tests (pre- and post-test), and was analyzed using descriptive statistics, the <i>N</i>-gain formula, the paired-sample t-test and ANCOVA. The results revealed learner autonomy in listening, structure, and reading skills, encompassing self-reliance, information literacy, linguistic confidence, and learning strategy. Digital classes incorporating <i>Google Form</i>, <i>Quizizz</i>, <i>Quizlet</i>, <i>Kahoot!</i>, and <i>Socrative </i>were more effective than traditional classes in terms of learning outcomes. Therefore, this study proposed a learning model utilizing digital technologies and autonomous learning concepts to improve students’ learning outcomes.
