Abstract
Abstract: Students’ perceptions of the benefits of mobile polling technology in teaching and learning in college: Implications of student’ participation and academic performance. Objectives: This study aims to analyze students’ perceptions of interactive teaching using Poll-Everywhere application as a useful teaching methodology. Methods: Strategic Lecturers enter questions using the Poll-Everywhere application. Students’ perceptions of interactive teaching that effectively uses this technology are statistically evaluated using a questionnaire. Findings: The level of student academic ability increased significantly between the two sections for Reading III Test (M = 89.74, SD = 3.26), and Reading V ( M = 90.42, SD = 3.91).
Conclusions: Students consider it a useful method for giving real feedback, which encourages their performance and participation. Lecturers regard Poll-Everywhere as an effective teaching innovation that encourages deeper information storage and as an effective teaching aid in monitoring student progress and identifying shortcomings.
Keywords: Poll-Everywhere, student’ participation, academic performance, feedback, Mobile Polling.
Abstrak: Persepsi siswa tentang manfaat teknologi polling seluler dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran di perguruan tinggi: Implikasi dari partisipasi mahasiswa dan kinerja akademik. Tujuan: Studi ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis persepsi mahasiswa tentang pengajaran interaktif menggunakan aplikasi Poll-Everywhere sebagai metodologi pengajaran yang berguna. Metode: Strategis Dosen memasukkan pertanyaan menggunakan aplikasi Poll-Everywhere. Persepsi mahasiswa tentang pengajaran interaktif yang efektif menggunakan teknologi ini dievaluasi secara statistik menggunakan kuesioner. Temuan: Tingkat kemampuan akademik mahasiswa meningkat secara signifikan antara dua bagian untuk Tes Membaca III (M = 89,74, SD = 3.26), dan Membaca V (M = 90.42, SD = 3.91). Kesimpulan: Mahasiswa menganggapnya sebagai metode yang berguna untuk memberikan umpan balik nyata, yang mendorong kinerja dan partisipasi mereka. Dosen menganggap Poll-Everywhere sebagai inovasi pengajaran yang efektif yang mendorong penyimpanan informasi yang lebih dalam dan sebagai alat bantu pengajaran yang efektif dalam memantau kemajuan siswa dan mengidentifikasi kekurangan.
Kata kunci: Poll-Everywhere, partisipasi siswa, kinerja akademik, umpan balik, Polling Seluler.
