Abstract

The objective of this research was to know the level of effectiveness of the use of the UltraStar WorldParty software for learning and practicing the English language with Peruvian university students. This research, due to its purpose, was applied with an experimental level and a quasi-experimental design. The population consisted of 182 university students, 62 of them constituted our experimental group and 62 the control group. To collect the information, a checklist and an observation sheet were used. The results obtained were processed in the statistical program SPSS 21 and Microsoft Excel 2013 for the graphic representation of the data. The results showed that the level of effectiveness of the UltraStar WorldParty application for learning and practicing the English language was high, since it allowed students to complement their knowledge and put it into practice in a fun and entertaining way. Finally, we conclude that the proper application or use of software can significantly contribute to learning achievement and ensure that the educational experience in a virtual context is more enjoyable.
