To this aim, fifty male language learners were selected based on convenience sampling as the participants of the study. While the lessons and assignments were presented through Otus in the experimental group, the students in the control group had a traditional class. Finally, to explore the learners’ attitudes towards the application of Otus, a questionnaire was used. It was found out that the application of Otus had a significant effect on the English achievement of Iranian first-grade high school EFL learners. The findings also indicated that students in the experimental group had positive attitudes towards Otus. This research adds its significant findings of the growth of online language teaching facilities and enhancing the attitudes and achievements of Iranian EFL learners. Results can lead to some pedagogical implications for Iranian English language policy-makers to consider the use of educational networks and online application in the syllabus and teachers’ training courses.

摘要

在过去的几十年中,教育网络成为最流行的教学技术形式。在全世界,这种教育技术对英语教学方法的影响已大大增加。这项研究的主要目的是调查Otus社会教育网络对伊朗高中英语作为外语(EFL)学习者的英语成绩的影响。它还试图找出学生对使用Otus应用程序的态度。为此,根据便利性抽样选择了五十名男性语言学习者作为研究参与者。虽然通过Otus在实验组中介绍了课程和作业,但对照组中的学生却是传统班级。最后,为了探索学习者对Otus应用的态度,使用了问卷。结果发现,使用Otus对伊朗一年级高中EFL学习者的英语成绩有重大影响。调查结果还表明,实验组的学生对Otus持积极态度。这项研究增加了在线语言教学设施的发展以及增强伊朗EFL学习者的态度和成就的重要发现。结果可能会对伊朗英语政策制定者在教学大纲和教师培训课程中考虑使用教育网络和在线应用程序产生一些教学意义。调查结果还表明,实验组的学生对Otus持积极态度。这项研究增加了在线语言教学设施的发展以及增强伊朗EFL学习者的态度和成就的重要发现。结果可能会对伊朗英语政策制定者在教学大纲和教师培训课程中考虑使用教育网络和在线应用程序产生一些教学意义。调查结果还表明,实验组的学生对Otus持积极态度。这项研究增加了在线语言教学设施的发展以及增强伊朗EFL学习者的态度和成就的重要发现。结果可能会对伊朗英语政策制定者在教学大纲和教师培训课程中考虑使用教育网络和在线应用程序产生一些教学意义。
