dc.description.abstract | The integration of digital tools in education has encouraged teachers to adopt
technology in learning by changing traditional teaching and assessment methods. By
examining the role of technology in assessment, previous research highlights how
online assessments provide timely and in-depth feedback and increase student
engagement and satisfaction with the Quizizz application. While the research aims to
identify gaps in understanding of the challenges faced by English teachers, in
implementing the tool, the benefits of using Quizizz, and its impact on assessment in
English language learning.
A qualitative research approach with a case study design was chosen to gain in depth insights into teachers' perception. This research was located in SMPI AL MA‘ARIF Singosari with three English teachers as the participants who used Quizizz
as a digital assessment tool in the learning process. To collect data, the researcher
used interviews and observations to explore the use of digital assessment tools
thoroughly. Semi-structured interview was the instrument which conducted in Bahasa
Indonesia to avoid misunderstanding. The data analyzed by three primary steps that
direct the processing, presentation, and interpretation.
The study findings reveal that English teachers face several challenges when
integrating Quizizz into their assessments. These challenges include the time and
creativity required to create engaging questions aligned with the curriculum, the
difficulty in fostering critical thinking due to Quizizz's focus on factual knowledge,
and the lack of detailed feedback provided by the platform. Moreover, the visual and
gamified elements of Quizizz can distract students from the content, and accessibility
issues such as gadget restrictions in Islamic boarding schools and technical
difficulties like unstable internet and electricity further complicate its use. However,
despite these obstacles, Quizizz offers significant benefits, including enhanced
student engagement and motivation, prompt feedback, and streamlined assessment
processes. It plays a crucial role in both assessment for learning and assessment as
learning by providing immediate feedback and fostering student engagement,
supporting comprehensive assessment practices, and enhancing the overall learning
journey for both teachers and students | en_US |
