Abstract

Digital literacy is undoubtedly the byword of 21st century skill to be acquired by the students, as well as to be promoted and implemented by teachers and institutions all over the world. The field of English Language Teaching is not exempted from the onslaught of technology either. Teachers are expected to incorporate technology in and outside the classroom, be it to cater to the learning needs of the digital natives, or simply to comply with institutional demands. In line with this rapid technological development, there is a proliferation of Learning Management Systems (LMS) for English teachers to use and explore. One such LMS, Schoology, has been widely used by the lecturers in the college where the writer teaches. This semester, the writer is experimenting with Schoology to supplement her Vocabulary class. The rationale behind this implementation is the lack of time in the face-to-face meeting, which consists mainly of lecture, discussion and exercises. As such, there is little, if any, time for real usage of the vocabulary learned. The writer then made use of the Discussion feature in Schoology to create an online discussion where the students answer a question related to the Vocabulary item, and can comment on their friends’ answers. In this study, the writer is interested to investigate the perception of her students on the use of Schoology as the supplementary platform for teaching and learning vocabulary, specifically to know their opinion on the effectiveness of using Schoology to enhance their vocabulary usage and retention.
