Abstract

professional achievements. While web-based games have been shown to enhance educational outcomes, their effectiveness in teaching English to high school students has not been comprehensively studied. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of web-based learning methods in enhancing English communication skills among high school students. A total of 100 students participated and were randomly assigned to either the experimental or control groups. A mixed-method quantitative design was employed to analyze the data. The results indicated a significant difference between boys and girls in the experimental group. Overall, the study concluded that a blended learning approach, combining face-to-face instruction with web-based activities, can effectively enhance English communication skills at the high school level.
