This mixed-methods study explored 30 EFL teachers’ perceptions of online student response systems (OSRSs) in emergency remote teaching settings. Data were collected using a survey addressing components related to the acceptance and use of OSRSs and semi-structured interviews. Survey findings revealed that OSRS components are regarded as helpful and engaging by EFL teachers. At the same time, interview data identified drivers (ease of use, increased student engagement, and immediate feedback) and obstacles (internet connection issues, lack of training, and distractive elements) concerning OSRS use. Pedagogical implications refer to the need for EFL teachers to receive proper training before using OSRSs and the benefits of accepting the gamified aspects of OSRSs as a significant feature that can support learning.
Este estudio de métodos mixtos exploró las percepciones de 30 profesores de inglés sobre los sistemas de respuesta en línea para estudiantes (OSRS, por sus siglas en inglés) en entornos de enseñanza remota de emergencia. Los datos se recolectaron mediante una encuesta y entrevistas semiestructuradas. La encuesta reveló que los componentes de OSRS son considerados útiles y atractivos por los profesores, mientras que las entrevistas identificaron motivantes (facilidad de uso, mayor participación de los estudiantes y retroalimentación inmediata) y obstáculos (conexión a Internet, falta de capacitación y elementos distractores). Las implicaciones pedagógicas apuntan a la necesidad de que los profesores de inglés como lengua extranjera reciban formación adecuada antes de utilizar los OSRS y a los beneficios de aceptar los aspectos lúdicos de estos sistemas para el aprendizaje.
