Abstract

Grammar plays an important role in second language learning process. How to make grammar teaching and learning interesting and effective is a great concern of many teachers. Therefore, the research was carried out to investigate the effectiveness of Quizizz application and the attitudes of students towards using Quizizz application in grammar learning as well. This experimental research was conducted in eight-week intervention of the academic year 2021-2022. The participants included sixty two first-year English majored students at Khanh Hoa University. Grammar test based on the curriculum and the close-ended questionnaire were employed as data collection instruments to determine their grammar achievement as well as perspectives towards the implementation of Quizizz application. The results show that this application has a positive effect on students’ learning outcomes, and they have positive attitudes towards this method. Therefore, it is suggested that EFL teachers should consider applying Quizizz application in grammar periods to help students learn grammar better.
