QUIZZES AND OVERALL PERFORMANCE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE SKILLS OF STUDENTS

Abstract

The assessment system in any institution plays an essential role in producing quality students and their performance. Quizzes are also assessments that assist students in continuously making good scores, and finally, they significantly affect their study results and overall performance. The study aims to determine how quizzes affect students' final achievement of Saudi Arabian students. Two groups of 100 students were the subjects in each group. One group had a pretest and final exam. In contrast, the other group had four quizzes of the same marks as of pretest, and the other was a final test that ultimately affected their final achievement score significantly. The study's finding shows that quizzes do have a mentionable impact on students' overall performance of language skills. This study will guide the educationalists, syllabus designers, and authorities in designing the course assessment and evaluation procedures. This study will also help the new researchers explore more in this field.
