| Abstract | ||
| The current study aimed at developing some EFL listening comprehension skillsand Motivation among first year secondary school students through the use of a Google Classroom platform. The study adopted the quasi-experimental design through the use of two-groups (Experimental- control) and pre/posttest and pre/post scale. Participants were first year secondary school students; two groups (30 students each) were from El-Hussinia Secondary School for Girls, Sharkya Governorate, Egypt in the academic year 2020-2021. The experimental group was taught through Google Classroom for developing their listening comprehension skills and motivation. The control group received regular instruction. To achieve the purpose of the study, the researcher designed a questionnaire for identifying listening comprehension skills, a listening comprehension skills test, and a rubric for scoring the listening skills test. Also the researcher designed a scale for motivation. By the end of the experiment, the test and the scale were post administered to both groups to find out the effect of the Google Classroom on developing the experimental group students' listening comprehension skills and their motivation. Findings of the study were statistically dealt with via the Statistical Package for the Social Science software (SPSS). The results showed that the experimental group outperformed the control group students. Accordingly, it was concluded that the Google Classroom platform was effective in developing EFL listening comprehension and motivation of secondary stage students. | ||
