Throtel, Throttel, Trottel or Trotel. Engineering Undergraduates' Perception of the Use of Kahoot! To Review Course Content
TESL-EJ, v28 n3 2024
Education has undergone a fundamental change driven by technological advances, significantly altering the way teaching and learning is conceptualized in the classroom. Currently the variety of learning and teaching platforms is extensive and in general, these have been very well received by language teachers. The use of these platforms is often driven by teachers' eagerness to keep students motivated, engaged, and focused throughout a class. This exploratory study investigates engineering undergraduates' perceptions of integrating Kahoot! (a Game-based Student Response System (GSRS)) to review technological vocabulary and grammar before their unit tests. Students' perceptions were assessed using quantitative and qualitative methods throughout one semester. The findings indicated that students found the use of Kahoot! to be beneficial in relation to: (1) improving technological vocabulary in English (2) review more complex grammatical structures; (3) enjoy a more relaxed classroom environment. Finally, the present article presents some implications that may be useful to language lecturers.
