This study aimed to explore the effect of using Kahoot! to supplement English courses on students' learning motivation in vocational high school, and the perceptions of the instructor and the students. The study subjects were two Graphic Art Communication classes and one Architecture class in a public vocational senior high school in Taichung. They were divided into experimental group 1, experimental group 2, and control group, with 114 students. The instructor of these three classes is the co-researcher for this study. This study adopts quantitative and qualitative research methods and conducts a six-week teaching experiment. This study was divided into two parts. The first part was a quantitative study. Using the ''English Learning Motivation Scale'' compiled by the researcher as the inquiry, an One-way ANCOVA analysis was carried out on the posttest scores of the experimental group 1, experimental group 2, and control group, and the paired sample t-test of the pre-test and post-test was performed on the experimental group 1 and the experimental group 2, respectively. The second part is qualitative research to explore the perceptions of the instructor and the students. Focus group and individual interviews were conducted with students in a semi-structured interview. An individual interview was conducted with the instructor. The instructor’s interview records, the instructor’s reflection notes, and the researcher’s observation records were used to meet the triangulation requirements. The results of the study can be summarized as the following two points. Kahoot! had no significant difference in the overall learning motivation of vocational high school students in English courses.2. Most students had positive perceptions of using Kahoot! in English courses, but it failed to impact English learning for all students. Finally, according to the findings, several suggestions were provided for vocational high school English teachers and professional development in language education. |
