This study examined students’ perceptions of using Quizizz as a learning tool in the University of Prizren’s Department of English and Literature. A quantitative method was employed, utilizing data collected from a questionnaire. This questionnaire was distributed to 50 students during the summer semester of the 2022/2023 academic year. The researcher used Google Forms to analyze the data and determine the frequency and the percentage. The findings revealed that students had positive perceptions of this tool in the classroom. Most students found Quizizz helpful, fun, and engaging, and it significantly contributed to their motivation. Future research should focus on examining teachers’ perceptions regarding this platform in the context of teaching and learning.
