A study of university students’ satisfaction with ability grouping in TOEIC class

This study examines students’ satisfaction with ability grouping in university TOEIC classes. The research questions were as follows: 1) What was the students’ satisfaction level regarding the effects of ability grouping in TOEIC class?; 2) What was the students’ satisfaction level regarding the teaching method of ability grouping in TOEIC class?; and 3) What was the students’ satisfaction level regarding the management of ability grouping in TOEIC class? The students were divided into three groups (beginning, intermediate, and advanced group) based on their CBT (Computer-Based TOEIC) scores. To examine the three groups’ satisfaction with ability grouping in TOEIC class, a questionnaire was administered to 171 students. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 12.0. Major findings of the study were as follows: First, the students were not highly satisfied with the effects of ability grouping in TOEIC class, but they were satisfied with the teaching method and management of ability grouping; and second, the beginner group’s satisfaction level was much higher than those of the intermediate and advanced groups.
