The Effect of Adaptive Learning Program in Developing Communication Skills

Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the adaptive learning program in assisting middle school students to acquire communication skills, including reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Besides evaluating the program's efficiency in terms of enhancing students' communication skills after a month of participation. In the southern Mazar region of Jordan, 50 middle school students were evenly split into two groups: 25 (experimental) and 25 (control). The results of the control and experimental groups' scores on the post-measurement communication skills scale revealed statistically significant differences in favor of the experimental group. The study also showed that there were statistically significant differences in the experimental groups' mean communication skill scores between the pre-and post-program measurements, favoring the post-measurement. Furthermore, there were no statistically significant changes in the experimental group's communication skills between the post-test and follow-up evaluations.
