Using Socrative App to Find Weaknesses in English Class of 10th Grade Students in Banteaymeanchey, Cambodia

Abstract

The purposes of this study were to: 1) develop interactive English learning assessments using the Socrative app, 2) find the efficacy of interactive English learning assessments using the Socrative app, and 3) study the students’ satisfaction using the Socrative app. Ten students from Hun Sen Mongkolborey high school were chosen as a sample from one of the seven grade 10 classes in the academic year 2020-2021, and they were permitted to participate in the whole session in an online class. The instruments of this study were pre and post survey, three sets of grammar lesson plans and a set of quizzes for pretest and posttest. The instruments were evaluated by three experts. Jamovi's paired sample t-test was used to assess the data. The results revealed that 1) interactive English learning assessments consisted of 15 multiple choice questions (MCQ), 5 true/false statements with pictures, and 5 W.H questions with clues ; 2) the efficacy value of using the Socrative through pretest and posttest for 10th-grade students showed that their posttest scores were greater than their pretest scores at the 0.05 level of significance; and 3) overall satisfaction was satisfied (x ̅=4.11, S.D=0.59). As a result, using the Socrative app can help students improve their language skills, score better in exams, and satisfy with the learning they receive from using the Socrative app on a good level.
