Abstract:
This study is a research and development project with the following objectives: 1) to assess the need for Mobile Assisted Language Learning, English language instruction, constructive feedback, and causal factors affecting secondary school students' confidence in English communication ; and 2-4) to develop, study, and certify mobile-assisted language learning with constructive feedback to enhance secondary school students' confidence in English communication. The research comprises four phases. Phase 1: Assessing the need for Mobile Assisted Language Learning, English language instruction, constructive feedback, and causal factors affecting secondary school students' confidence in English communication. The research sample consisted of 672 secondary school students. Phase 2: Development of the model, with experts in educational technology and communication, English language teaching, counseling, and guidance as the sample. Phase 3: Conducting a study on the effect of using the model. The research sample consisted of 22 secondary school students. Phase 4: Similar to Phase 2 ; Model Certification , using the same sample as in the previous phase. The research's findings were obtained through document analysis and related research. The outcomes of the study identified essential needs and causal factors. The components of Mobile Assisted Language Learning include: 1. Ubiquity 2. Connectivity 3. Social Interactivity 4. Individuality The stages of the model are as follows: Extensive listening and speaking, involving selection, mission, and presentation. Feedback, consisting of teacher and peers' observation, teacher-student collaboration, and students' self-perception. Comparing the average levels of confidence in communicating in English at different points in time, the study's results revealed a statistically significant increase in confidence, with an observed difference of 0.05
