Use of google forms in teaching and assessing English phonology

الملخص EN

Incorporating technology into learning, teaching and assessment is not a choice anymore; it is a necessity, especially if it is meticulously aligned to classroom objectives and pedagogical visions.

Technology does not only mean using computers, interactive smart boards, and other sophisticated hardware.

Technology also means using the right tools that allow students to create, connect, research, collaborate, contextualize and build skills.

Most studies on assessment have mainly focused on in-class written and oral tests, and only few have seriously considered combining technology and academic online formative assessment at university level.

This paper aims at utilizing Google Forms as a powerful online technology tool in teaching phonology and assessing students' competence.

Moreover, this paper aims at testing students' desirability to participate in online tests/quizzes and providing facilitating feedback.

Results show that Google Forms-based tests are not only tests of learning but also tests for learning that contribute to continuous improvement and enhanced achievement.

The results further reveal that students were highly motivated and willing to participate in more similar tests
