Research Proposal: Utilizing Interactive Technology in Language Pedagogy

Working Research Title: The Impacts of Edpuzzle Mobile App on Listening Skills for Non-English Major Students at [Your College/University].

Main Research Aim & Objectives: The primary aim is to investigate how interactive video tools can bridge the gap between passive listening and active comprehension. Following the principle of describing linguistic tools thoroughly before assessing their impact, this study seeks to determine if the "embedded questioning" feature of Edpuzzle enhances information retention more effectively than traditional methods.

Research Questions:

1. How does the integration of Edpuzzle impact the listening comprehension scores of non-English major students?

2. Have you considered how students’ anxiety levels might decrease when they have control over video playback and receive immediate feedback?

Planned Methodology (Mixed Methods): I plan to adopt a Mixed Methods approach to capture both numerical data and human experience .

  • Quantitative: Pre-tests and post-tests to measure statistical growth in listening proficiency.

  • Qualitative: Surveys to explore student perceptions and engagement levels.

    Would it help to define the "cultural and social context" of these students (Principle 5) to better understand why certain interactive features resonate more with them than others?

Your topic clearly identifies the independent and dependent variables, the participants, and the research site. However, the objective is somewhat ambiguous. I suggest narrowing your focus to 'enhancing listening skills' rather than using a broader term like 'enhancing information retention'.

Hi Kiều,

I think this topic is clear and interesting, especially the focus on how Edpuzzle can turn listening from a passive activity into a more active one.
Your aim is quite specific, but you might want to narrow it further by clearly focusing on one feature of Edpuzzle, such as embedded questions, to keep the study manageable.
Have you considered whether students’ anxiety or confidence changes when they can control the video and get immediate feedback? This could add depth to your findings. It might also help to briefly define the students’ cultural or learning context, as this could explain why certain interactive features work better for them.

Hope this helps!

Hi Kiều,
Your topic meets all the necessary requirements for a research title: independent and dependent variables, the participants, and the research site. However, Research Question 2 is currently phrased as a yes/no reflective question, which is more suitable for discussion than for empirical investigation. Research questions should be neutral, declarative, and researchable.
