SUMMARY:

The development of technology in teaching and learning has multiplied, in recent years, the number of possible research objects within Applied Linguistics. This study aims to investigate the impact of using response system applications (SRS) on learners' performance and cognitive engagement in pre-test content reviews of the L2 Spanish course at high school. In total, forty-nine participants were observed during review classes under three different conditions: one intervention without applications, one with a non-gamified SRS application (Plickers) and one with a gamified SRS application (Kahoot), after the reviews there was the recording of a verbal protocol and the test was performed. We adopted a mixed approach methodology (DÖRNYEI, 2007) with collection and analysis of qualitative and quantitative data. Results indicate that there was a statistically significant impact of gamified SRS on engagement and non-gamified SRS on performance. Finally, the learners' perceptions were positive regarding the insertion of applications in the classroom.
