In the era of technology-integrated teaching, videos have been widely used in ESL class as they help create an English-speaking learning environment. However, for the Z generation, who are accustomed to immediate feedback from smartphones, traditional one-way video instruction lacks the interactive stimulation they are used to. Therefore, this study attempts investigates the effectiveness of improving vocational high school students’English dialogue learning and motivation by applying situated learning approach combined with formative assessments embedded in interactive videos. A quasi-experimental design was employed, with 70 vocational high school students divided into an experimental group and a control group. The eight-week experiment focused on exploring effective teaching strategies for interactive videos. Thus, the experimental group received teacher’s instruction where the teacher interpreted the results of formative assessments and provided explanations, while the control group practiced with the feedback from formative assessments independently. The data of the pre-test and post-test scores from the English Conversation Test and the Learning Motivation Survey was collected to examine the difference in students’English learning achievement and motivation. The results indicate that integrating interactive videos with situated learning significantly strengthened the effectiveness of English dialogue learning and motivation of vocational high school students. Both groups demonstrated significant improvement from pre-test to post-test. Moreover, teacher-guided formative assessment interpretation and explanations led to significant improvement in the use of interactive videos for English situational dialogue learning, compared to self-paced practice by students. This study provides research findings and teaching reflections to educators for reference as well as suggestions for future research. |
