Abstract

This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of the Nearpod application in enhancing students' vocabulary. Utilizing a quasi-experimental design, quantitative methods were employed, and data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests. The findings revealed a significant improvement in vocabulary scores among students using Nearpod. The experimental group showed an increase in average scores from 51.13 (pre-test) to 75.97 (post-test), with a maximum score of 90 and a minimum score of 60. In contrast, the control group's scores increased from 52.03 to 72.22, with a maximum score of 85 and a minimum score of 55. The T-test results indicated a higher post-test score in the experimental group compared to the control group. The standard deviation for the experimental group was 8.604, and for the control group, it was 7.763. The average standard error was 1.587 for the experimental group and 1.265 for the control group. The independent sample t-test showed t (df=56) = 2003 with a p-value of 0.945, leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis (Ho) and acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha). These results suggest that the Nearpod application is effective in improving students' vocabulary achievement.

Abstract

The growing integration of digital technology into English language education has encouraged teachers to adopt various digital platforms for classroom assessment. However, previous studies have predominantly examined the effectiveness of individual applications, with limited attention to how teachers employ multiple digital assessment platforms within their professional assessment practices. This study aimed to identify the digital assessment platforms employed by English teachers in an Islamic junior high school. A qualitative case study was conducted at an Islamic junior high school in Cirebon, Indonesia, involving two English teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis and analyzed using Braun and Clarke's thematic analysis. The findings identified three complementary categories of digital assessment platforms: institutionalized assessment platforms, gamified assessment platforms, and flexible web-based assessment platforms. These findings suggest that teachers employed different digital assessment platforms to fulfill complementary roles within classroom assessment rather than relying on a single application. The study contributes a thematic categorization of digital assessment platforms that broadens the understanding of teachers' digital assessment practices in EFL classrooms. Future research should examine these platform categories across diverse educational contexts and investigate how institutional policies and pedagogical considerations influence teachers' selection of digital assessment platforms.
