The Impact of Using Mentimeter in Enhancing Reading Comprehension Skills of Tenth-Grade Students in Palestine

This study aimed to investigate the impact of using Mentimeter on enhancing the reading comprehension skills of tenth-grade students in Palestine. The researcher used an experimental design and the random cluster sampling method, with two groups tested: experimental and control (40 students each). To collect data, a scale of 30 paragraphs was designed to measure students’ reading comprehension skills based on Bloom’s Taxonomy theory. It includes 30 paragraphs distributed over six dimensions, namely: retention, comprehension, application, analysis, evaluation, and creation. After the students answered the scale, the test was corrected, with each dimension given 10 points, and then the data was analyzed using t-test. The results showed that Mentimeter increased average reading comprehension scores by 28%. Therefore, investing the Mentimeter platform in teaching helps create an interactive educational environment within the classroom and, hence, contributes to enhancing the outcomes of teaching the Arabic language. The researcher recommended more initiatives to draw the attention of Palestinian educational policymakers to the importance of education digitization, particularly in language teaching. Moreover, the researcher recommended conducting further studies with a larger sample size and variations in educational contexts to strengthen the findings of this research.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the impact of using Mentimeter on enhancing the reading comprehension skills of tenth-grade students in Palestine. The researcher used an experimental design and the random cluster sampling method, with two groups tested: experimental and control (40 students each). To collect data, a scale of 30 paragraphs was designed to measure students’ reading comprehension skills based on Bloom’s Taxonomy theory. It includes 30 paragraphs distributed over six dimensions, namely: retention, comprehension, application, analysis, evaluation, and creation. After the students answered the scale, the test was corrected, with each dimension given 10 points, and then the data was analyzed using t-test. The results showed that Mentimeter increased average reading comprehension scores by 28%. Therefore, investing the Mentimeter platform in teaching helps create an interactive educational environment within the classroom and, hence, contributes to enhancing the outcomes of teaching the Arabic language. The researcher recommended more initiatives to draw the attention of Palestinian educational policymakers to the importance of education digitization, particularly in language teaching. Moreover, the researcher recommended conducting further studies with a larger sample size and variations in educational contexts to strengthen the findings of this research.
