The Effect Of Using Google Classroom Application On Tenth-Grade Students' Motivation Towards Learning The Subject Of Computer In Jordan

Abstract

This study[1] aimed to identify the effect of using Google Classroom application on the tenth-grade students' motivation towards learning the subject of Computer in Jordan. In order to achieve this goal, the quasi-experimental method was used. The study members consisted of (52) male and female students of the tenth grade who were intentionally selected from the University of Jordan School; they were distributed randomly, so that one section of the tenth-grade students was selected to be a control group, which consisted of (25) male and female students, and another section of the same school was selected to be an experimental group, which consisted of (27) male and female students. To achieve the objectives of the study, a motivation scale towards learning the subject of Computer, consisting of (35) items, was developed. The results of the study showed that there is a statistically significant difference between the means of the degrees of motivation scale due to the variable of the method of teaching in favor of the experimental group who were taught using Google Classroom application. Based on the results of the study, the researchers recommend to generalize the experience of teaching using Google Classroom application to benefit the rest of the other educational materials and all courses, and preparing the study materials to suit the use of Google Classroom application, in addition to developing and providing the necessary requirements to teach via Google Classroom applications in schools and universities, as well as conducting training courses to train teachers on how to use the application.
