The Effectiveness of E-learning and AI applications (Gamma, Padlet, Classroom) in Developing the Educational Process

Abstract

This study investigates the impact of the Gamma, Padlet, and Classroom applications on students across various academic levels and disciplines. It explores the effectiveness of these applications in enhancing the educational process, revealing students’ perceptions regarding accessibility, interaction, and skill development, while highlighting significant differences across academic disciplines and levels. The study involved 85 female students from diverse academic majors (Early Childhood Education, English Language, Islamic Studies, and Special Education) at the Girls' College of Seiyun University, Yemen, ranging from first to fourth-year levels. The findings indicate that the initial hypothesis—which suggested that students’ attitudes toward e-learning tools would differ according to their academic level—was not supported. However, the hypothesis that students’ attitudes differ according to their academic major was confirmed. The results also reveal an overall positive attitude toward these tools in terms of ease of use, access to educational resources, and perceived effectiveness, despite a slight continued preference for traditional learning methods. To maximize the benefits of e-learning applications, it is essential to improve technological training and personalize learning experiences when using Gamma and Padlet to avoid negative effects on student motivation and satisfaction.
