EFL Students' Perceptions of Using a Social Constructivist Approach-Based Platform: A Case Study
International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, Paper presented at the International Conference on Research in Education and Science (ICRES) (Antalya, Turkey, Apr 27-30, 2024)
The integration of technological advancements into the educational settings of many nations is regarded as a key factor for augmenting pedagogical practices and learning outcomes. Consequently, educational policymakers have made substantial investments in establishing and maintaining Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure within institutional environments. Recently, a novel educational platform named EDUNEXT has just been developed and implemented across many subjects at a private Vietnamese University. Hence, the present research endeavors to the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats associated with the platform, involving 30 EFL students. Data were gathered through individual semi-structured interviews with participants and subsequently analyzed utilizing the SWOT method. In addition to discovering EDUNEXT's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities as well as threats through students' perceptions, the findings expect not only to provide a comprehensive perspective for users, educational institutions, and planning and curriculum developers at the research site to enhance the EDUNEXT platform but also serve as a reference for those intending to establish such ICT platforms in their educational institutions.
