Abstract

In the present educational context, the teaching and learning process is gradually associated with computers to maximize its outcomes. One of the platforms which is commonly used is ClassDojo. Implementing the principles of gamification, ClassDojo is considered effective to motivate students to be more active in online classes, pushes healthy competitiveness, and enhances learning and enjoyment. This study aims to investigate the students’ perceptions of using ClassDojo in the teaching and learning process. This study applied a cross-sectional survey design in which 77 participants range from 17 to 23 years of age. To assess the perceptions, a close-ended questionnaire with five-point Likert scale was distributed and then analyzed to find out its average. Then, several interviews were carried out as the data triangulation. The result shows that there are two main components of ClassDojo which motivates students in the English class; points and avatars. The students are more motivated and engaged in the teaching and learning process as they strive to earn more points. In addition, the students are eager to customize their own character and enjoy playing it throughout the class. Thus, not only points, avatars are also the essential component of ClassDojo which motivates and engages the students in the teaching and learning process.

Abstract

Developing appropriate resources for a language learning programme, including those for English as a general course, is pivotal in order for the students’ learning to be successful. Prior to the development, the students’ needs should be assessed so that the materials developer obtains a comprehensive view of what the students need. This study aims to investigate the students’ needs to develop the materials for English as a general course for non-English Department students. The research was conducted at Universitas Tidar and involved 240 students from different departments. Quantitative research was employed as the approach of the study, and the data were collected by using a questionnaire. The findings show that the students are motivated to learn English for their potential careers in the future and for global communication. In addition, the students claim that they need to master listening, speaking, reading, and writing skill, as well as grammar and pronunciation. Further, the students consider listening as the most difficult macro skill to master and grammar as the most challenging language aspect to learn. Meanwhile, in relation to the topics, English for everyday, academic, and professional purpose are among the points that should be covered in the materials. In regard to the activity design, in-class activities that the students are most enthusiastic about are practicing pronunciation, learning vocabulary, and watching English-language videos; meanwhile, the students prefer to create videos and work on a project as their assignment. Moreover, they feel enthusiastic when working in groups rather than working in pairs and individually.
