Comparative Analysis of EdPuzzle and Plickers for Measuring Student's Perception, Engagement, and Learning Outcome

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the impact of assessment tools and techniques, particularly EdPuzzle and Plickers, on students’ learning, engagement, performance, and overall learning outcomes. The study was developed based on the quantitative research design. The targeted audience was the students in the ninth grade of the school in Rawalpindi. The study collected pre-test data from 60 students to provide the baseline for how well these students performed in their English grammar and comprehension tests. In order to evaluate the performance of students on tests, the effect of different parameters on student performance, and to analyze the differences in perceptions among the three groups, SPSS was used. The findings indicated that students who received instruction via EdPuzzle had the best performance, and student's perceptions of the technology and their learning outcomes were also most significant. The findings have indicated that EdPuzzle was a better learning and instruction approach than Plickers and traditional learning techniques. The experiment was conducted in a single school with a very small sample size; thus, there might be problems in generalization. The study provides awareness to educators and policymakers to make informed decisions for implementing technology in education.
