Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Spotify-based learning in improving the speaking skills of tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Sukawati. Speaking is a crucial skill in English as a Foreign Language (EFL), yet students often experience difficulties such as low confidence, limited vocabulary, poor pronunciation, and lack of speaking practice. To address these issues, Spotify-based audio materials, particularly podcasts and narrative stories, were integrated into Task-Based Language Teaching (TBLT) to provide students with authentic English input and meaningful speaking practice. This research employed a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group involving pre-test and post-test procedures. The sample consisted of 59 students, with 35 students in the experimental group and 24 students in the control group. The experimental group was taught using Spotify-based learning integrated with TBLT, while the control group received conventional instruction. Students’ speaking performance was assessed based on pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, comprehension, and content organization. The data were analyzed using the Mann–Whitney U test. The results revealed a significant difference between the two groups, with a p-value of 0.027 (p < 0.05). The experimental group showed greater improvement in speaking performance, with mean scores increasing from 69.34 in the pre-test to 75.34 in the post-test. Among all speaking aspects, comprehension showed the most significant improvement, followed by vocabulary and content organization. These findings indicate that Spotify-based learning is effective in enhancing students’ speaking skills by providing repeated exposure to authentic listening input and supporting active language use through structured speaking tasks. Therefore, Spotify integrated with TBLT can be considered an effective alternative instructional media in EFL speaking classrooms.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of the Duolingo application in improving the speaking skills of tenth-grade students at SMK Pariwisata Budaya Bedulu. The study used a quasi-experimental design involving an experimental group taught using Duolingo and a control group taught using conventional media. The participants consisted of 66 students divided into two classes. Data were collected through pre-test and post-test speaking assessments covering pronunciation, fluency, vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension. The findings showed that the experimental group improved from a mean score of 52.73 to 75.30, while the control group improved from 51.36 to 72.42. However, the Mann-Whitney U test showed a significance value of 0.238, which was higher than 0.05. Therefore, statistically there was no significant difference between the two groups, although the experimental group showed better improvement descriptively. These findings are related to Cognitive Learning Theory, which emphasizes practice and active learning. The study concludes that Duolingo can support students’ speaking skills as a digital learning medium.

Abstract

This study aims to test the effectiveness of using MALL through Duolingo on the speaking skills of seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 5 Sukawati. This study used a quasi-experimental research design. Participants were 75 seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 5 Sukawati, divided into two classes. A speaking test was used to collect data through a pretest and posttest. Data were analyzed using inferential statistics and non-parametric tests, especialy the Mann-Whitney U test and Guade's ANCOVA. The test results showed a significant difference in post-test scores between the two groups after controlling for pre-test scores as a covariate using the Guade's ANCOVA test, with a p-value of 0.000, or lower than 0.05. These results indicate a significant difference between the experimental and control groups. The mean score for the experimental group was 71.08, while the mean score for the control group was 64.56. Therefore, it can be concluded that using Duolingo has a significant effect on students' speaking skills.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Kahoot! as media on students’ vocabulary mastery. This research used a quasi-experimental design with two groups, namely the experimental group and the control group. The population of this study was the students of seventh- grade SMP N 2 Susut in the academic year 2025/2026. The sample consisted of class VII-D as the experimental group and class VII-E as the control group, with 30 students in each group.  The experimental group was using Kahoot! as media, while the control group was using conventional media. The research instrument to determine the effectiveness of the treatment was given a Pre-test and a Post-test. The result of this study was analyzed using an Ancova. The ANCOVA result showed that the treatment had significant effectiveness on students’ post-test scores after controlling for pre-test scores F (1,57) = 53.427 with p = 0.001. It indicated that there was a significant difference between the students who were taught by using Kahoot! and those who were taught by using conventional media. The effect size also showed a strong effect with partial eta squared value of 0.484. Which means that students who learn using Kahoot! as media increase students’ vocabulary mastery.
