Abstract

This study examines college students’ perceptions of the learning effectiveness of multimedia bulletin boards. Through various online bulletin board activities using multimedia, the research investigated how students perceived the learning effect of this type of online tool, Padlet. Fifty-four first-year students performed five different posting activities using Padlet and responded to the questionnaire about the learning advantages they recognized. Their responses were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The concepts of learning effectiveness of Padlet activities were coded and classified into three categories: emotional, cognitive, and social constructivist. Results showed that students mentioned emotional factors the most, followed by social constructivist factors. The students described that posting activities using multimedia increased their learning motivation; they could effectively share their thoughts with other students and better understand their peers’ideas. Their perception of the cognitive domain related to the improvement of language ability was the least. students are expected to improve the cognitive skills related to language learning if they are provided with appropriate activities according to learning topics.
