Student Research

Abstract

English is one of the subjects taught in elementary school and is identified as challenging and complex to study for students. To overcome these problems, the researchers offered a solution by integrating the Kahoot game. This study determined the effectiveness of the Kahoot app in enhancing the grammatical structure skills level of the grade 6 students in Marigondon Elementary School for the school year 2023-2024. The study applied a quasi-experimental design. The researchers' participants were 40 grade 6 pupils. A printed questionnaire was given to the participants to answer, which served as a pre-survey and post-assessment to identify the students' grammatical structure skills level before and after using the Kahoot app. The findings revealed that there was an improvement in the grammatical structure skills level of students after using the Kahoot game. Researchers also found that students were more motivated and engaged to participate in class when the Kahoot game was used. There was a significant relationship between their grammatical structure skills level and perceptions, no significant relationship between their grammatical structure skills level and engagement, and there was a significant relationship between their perceptions and engagement in using the Kahoot game in learning grammatical structures, specifically verb tenses, conjunctions, and adverbs. Through the research findings, the researchers suggest recommendations for the study to improve and be more effective, such as providing a solid internet connection and allowing the students to use the gadgets provided by the school. Teachers and students should practice their skills in navigating devices.
