Immediate feedback and the use of Personal Response Systems for EFL instruction

对本研究开始时提出的问题进行了调查和回答，并在报告的最后一节指出了局限性。这些设备是一个有用的除了教学的语法和词汇在英语作为外语（EFL）类。适当的问题类型被确定，学生对设备的看法显示出很大程度上是积极的反应，对他们在EFL设置的进一步使用。一个研究结构的开发，试点，并在三个国家的情况下（日本，马来西亚和柬埔寨）使用。同行评价是这项技术的一个非常有前途的应用。在下文详述的12个论坛/地点发表了国际成果。值得注意的局限性是，这些设备并不总是稳定的，尽管在硬件和软件方面已经取得了重大改进。该项目已经产生了进一步的研究红利。

The questions posed at the start of this research were investigated and answered, with limitations noted in the report's final section. The devices were a useful addition to instruction of grammar and vocabulary in English as a foreign language (EFL) classes. Appropriate question types were identified, student perceptions about the devices showed a largely positive response towards their further use in an EFL setting. A research construct was developed, piloted, and utilized in three national contexts (Japan, Malaysia, and Cambodia). Peer-evaluation was a highly promising application for this technology. Results were published internationally in twelve forums/venues detailed below. Notable limitations are that the devices were not always stable, although significant improvements have been made in hardware and software. This project is already generating further research dividends.
