This study examined the Influence of pedagogical offline hangman games on the EFL learner's vocabulary acquisition. This research was a quasi-experimental design involving independent and dependent variables. Participants were 60 EFL learners from Indonesian Rural Junior High schools ages 12-15 years, selected by purposive sampling. The data were collected by a multiple-choice vocabulary test with four answer choices with a reliability coefficient of 0.92. The Shapiro-Will test was used to determine normality, whereas Levine's test was for homogeneity. To analyze the data, researchers used independent sample t-tests and N-Gain indexes. These results revealed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in terms of the EFL vocabulary gains of the learners. The N-gain index test showed that the average score in the experimental group was 0.444 or 44.4%, while it was 0.043 or 4.3% in the control class. The results indicated that using the offline pedagogical hangman games as media was more effective than conventional ones for EFL vocabulary learning.

“…(Kang, 2022) This is because people, particularly those with a high working memory capacity, are less likely to remember details but more likely to remember how to access information (a keyword for a search engine query). (Hamzi et al, 2021) But people who are not confident in their ability to remember tend to use external tools (Fisher & Oppenheimer, 2021) making the 2011 statement (Sparrow et al, 2011) increasingly valid. Because of its massive storage capacity, the Internet has become a primary form of external or transactive memory, where information is stored collectively outside of us.…”

Memorization is a crucial factor in effective learning and achieving educational goals. Recent research has suggested that short video sequences viewed by students before class can aid in acquiring and retaining basic concepts, thereby improving memorization and positively impacting the learning process in the flipped classroom approach. However, frequent use of digital tools among adolescents has been found to negatively impact cognitive functions such as memorization. It is worth noting that the traditional use of paper-based materials has been found to have a positive impact on memorization, particularly among learners who are easily distracted by digital devices or experience eye strain from prolonged screen use. Printed materials can offer a more tactile experience, allowing learners to physically highlight and annotate text, which can aid in the encoding and retrieval of information. This study aimed to assess the role of digital tools in the flipped classroom approach and determine if they could be substituted by paper-based materials. To achieve this, a comparative study was conducted between 35 students using digital tools in their flipped classroom (FCDS) and 31 students using paper-based materials (FCPS). The study involved administering pre-tests and post-tests to both groups to evaluate their ability to retrieve basic concepts and assess the effectiveness of their learning in life and earth sciences. The results indicate that learners were able to retrieve knowledge effectively regardless of the medium used and that the positive effect of the FCDS on recall during learning is comparable to that of the FCPS.

“…Under this label adoles-cents includes verbal aggressions such as insults, spreading false rumours, or visual abuse such as the publication and dissemination of images or videos [13] According to Kim [14] spending more time on the computer is negatively related to mental health in the following year. Also, the use of digitals tools has a direct influence on memorization as a learning process and it seems negative when this duration of use exceeds 2 hours [15]. The research questions that help fulfil the purpose of the study are:…”

Students in recent years spend a considerable amount of time on social networking web-sites. They have made online access and navigation through these sites part of their daily activities. The impact of social network sites in particular has become a major subject of discussion among various studies, because some of them see these pages as a threat or obstacle, while the rest argue that them affects positively the age of adolescence. A quantitative, descriptive and exploratory survey was conducted to identify the impact of this involvement on adolescents’ behaviour that affect their psychological development. The research sample consisted of 893 students, between the ages 10-15 years, users of the social network sites. This champion has been taken from middle school institutions from different cities of Albania. The analysis of the study results confirmed that students are using social network sites for a long time during the day. They have become addicted to them and they already display some behaviour patterns. As a conclusion, the study found that the inclusion in social network sites, if students spend a considerable amount of time on them, has a negative impact in their psychological problems. Parents, teachers and students need to communicate with each other in order to identify and avoid the risks of social network sites and also other studies should be done in this field and suggest different strategies to manage the psychological problems caused by the use of social networking sites.
