The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a significant shift in education, necessitating the adoption of remote and hybrid learning models in schools and universities. This transition poses challenges in maintaining student engagement, particularly in language learning classes due to the interactive nature of language acquisition. This study investigates the efficacy of low-stakes game-based quizzes and polling formative assessments facilitated through platforms like Kahoot, Mentimeter, Quizizz, Plickers, Google Forms, and Moodle in enhancing engagement in language learning. A single-group quantitative post-test-only study was conducted, examining the positive influence of these assessments on 180 engineering students across three years of a Technical English course, encompassing both online and offline semesters. The research assesses the effectiveness of game-based quizzes and polls as formative assessments in promoting active learning and mitigating student disengagement, both during the pandemic and in regular classes. Over the three years, the study highlights students' favorable perceptions of these activities, especially when integrated with multimedia platforms. Grounded in Self-Determination Theory (SDT), the research emphasizes the convenience, high engagement, and accessibility of game-based formative assessments on various devices. Automated assessment results and quantitative analysis of student surveys affirm heightened engagement and participation. This contribution adds to the growing evidence supporting multimedia tools and formative assessments to enhance student engagement in education.

... Formative assessments that include immediate explicit written feedback reinforce this knowledge. Sheen and Ellis's (2011: 606) cautious suggestion that focused written corrective feedback can lead to improvements of grammatical accuracy and acquisition can be backed up by Sánchez and colleagues' more recent study on the effect of quizzes on long-term learning (Sánchez, Diego and Fernández-Sánchez, 2017). This experimental research is the first one examining the effects of quizzes in foreign language learning on the acquisition of grammatical features. ...

Lots of online applications, both free and paid-for, can be used by teachers to enrich classroom interaction and to support students’ ability and understanding in the process of teaching and assessment. This study used descriptive mixed method design. To collect data, questionnaire was distributed to 140 students from senior high schools in Riau province. The findings showed that students believe in the significance of online applications to simplify creating, distributing, and grading assignments and receiving immediate feedback which is supported by some applications. On the other hand, the findings indicated that remote teaching did not create huge opportunities for effective learning and collaboration outside the classroom. Students need that the teachers should focus on pedagogy and learning, rather than technology. It is very important to provide immediate feedback during the formative assessment process to enhance students’ performance.
