Abstract
This study investigates Kahoot! as a digital game-based learning in second-language classrooms to resolve students’ lack of motivation in learning French verb conjugations. The goal is to enhance students’ understanding and proficiency in French verb conjugations, thereby improving learning outcomes. Due to the limited research on teaching French in Taiwan, this study is a valuable contribution to filling the gap. First-grade students majoring in French in the Department of Applied Linguistics and Language Studies participated in the study. The researcher used pretest, mid-test, and post-test design for one semester. Traditional teaching methods are used between the pretest and mid-test, while digital game-based teaching methods will be used between the mid-test and post-test. The study is based on collecting and analyzing data through quantitative research, focusing on gathered from pretest, mid-test, and post-test. The findings of this research will contribute to understanding the effectiveness of Kahoot! in improving learning outcomes and motivating Taiwanese students to learn French verb conjugations.
