Computer-assisted language learning (CALL) and mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) approaches have had positive effects on language education. Quizlet is an emerging tool which has helped many language learners to achieve their learning goals. The study aims to explore students’ perceptions on the use of Quizlet for their learning vocabulary. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches were employed to examine the frequency of use among students and their level of satisfaction toward Quizlet as well as its advantages and disadvantages it brought students. For data analysis, 148 students participated in the study through a questionnaire and a semi-structured interview. The results revealed that students sometimes used Quizlet for their learning vocabulary (M=3.073, SD=.6485) with the frequency of approximately 2 hours per week. In addition, students’ level of satisfaction was rated quite positive (M=3.515, SD=.8289). In particular, the feature Test was most noticeable and satisfactory since it helped students review vocabulary effectively. Many students preferred Quizlet because of its convenience and effectiveness while others were dissatisfied with some features such as Match as well as some spelling and definition errors, and unnatural pronunciation. It is to suggest that students would prefer Quizlet as a helpful tool for their vocabulary mastery. Besides, Quizlet developers could upgrade its features to make it an outstanding aid for language learners.

When the COVID-19 pandemic caused school closures and online teaching, the issue of online testing and evaluation almost took a back seat as many were focusing on the teaching and learning approaches, material preparations and students-teachers-content connectivism first. This has arrived at a scenario where teachers were not equipped with plagiarism-proof testing approaches, methods to curb 'behind the scenes' discussion while taking tests, or even the right number to apply the online testing. A delayed magnitude of measures has been undertaken to solve these issues. The efforts include resorting to online plagiarism software, mark deduction for any answers that seemed similar and mandatory multiple tests. The present paper seeks to discuss these issues and challenges faced by English as a second/foreign language (ESL/FL) teachers and learners in undertaking testing and evaluation during the online open learning period. This exploratory study adopts a non-rigorous PRISMA-SLR method in filtering articles for data selection. The targeted open source was the Google Scholar. Discussion suggests that the issues can be solved by adopting humanising approaches and implementing multiple means to ensure testing and evaluation during the online open learning were handled in a professional manner. The paper suggests more studies to be conducted in relation to the topic.

“…Two primary factors influence users' acceptance of the latest technology; 1) perceived usefulness and 2) perceived ease of use (Davis, 1989), which are related to learners' attitudes towards the newly applied system. TAM is used to predict users' attitudes towards how specific technology systems could improve task performance (Surendran, 2012 as cited in Prayogi & Wulandari, 2021), based on two primary constructs: perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Therefore, the level of acceptance can be determined by the users' responses to the TAM constructs.…”
