IMPACTS OF FEEDBACK POSTED ON GOOGLE CLASSROOM ON STUDENTS’ SPEAKING SKILL

Abstract

The case study aimed at investigating the influence of the teacher’s feedback toward students’ speaking skill on Google Classroom – a free platform attached with email accounts. The study was conducted with the help of second year English majored students at School of Foreign Languages, Thai Nguyen University. Observations and a survey were applied in data collection. The study results showed that the weekly feedback had a big role in the students’ awareness of their strengths and errors in their speeches posted on Google Classroom. Additionally, some suggestions to deal with the errors were given. Therefore, thanks to the feedback, the students’ speaking skill can be improved. Moreover, the study also finds that Google Classroom can help students save time spent on finding the teacher’s comments toward their speaking performances. The study brings other teachers some ideas for managing students’ homework in the era of technology and in the Corona epidemic.
