Using a quantitative methodology, this study examined the effects of academic achievement, student motivation, and engagement on the use of technology in English language instruction at a high school in North Sumatra, Indonesia. A sample of 200 students was examined using Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) in order to investigate the relationship between academic achievement, student engagement, motivation, and technology integration. The findings showed a strong correlation between academic performance, motivation, and engagement with technological integration. A mediation analysis revealed how important student motivation and engagement are in bridging the gap between technology and academic achievement. The results of the bootstrapping study were more reliable, and the proposed model's explanatory strength and predictive significance were highlighted by the R2 and Q2 values. There includes a discussion of the implications for English instruction, along with some helpful suggestions and directions for further investigation.

Despite the critical role of personality in academic success, schools frequently overlook the unique needs of introverted students in EFL classrooms, where tailored instructional strategies can significantly improve their engagement and understanding. This study builds on prior research that primarily examined speaking instructions, highlighting the overlooked instances of introversion in various skill-specific classrooms. It examined the pedagogical strategies employed by teachers in a classroom with introverted EFL learner minority. The primary objective of this study is to identify the challenges faced by the teachers, the various strategies they employed to accommodate the unique learning needs of introverted EFL learners in the context of English language learning, as well as the effectiveness of the strategies from the perspectives of the teachers. Employing a qualitative research design, this study utilized purposive sampling to select the participants and collected the data through interviews with three English teachers at MTsN 1 Mandailing Natal. The findings revealed that during the instructional process, the teachers encountered several challenges in effectively engaging with introverted learners, which include the introvert EFL learners’ lack of interest in engaging in the class activities and their limited mastery of vocabulary. The findings also disclosed a set of strategies that can support introverted learners, including modeling, small-group discussions, game-based instruction, autonomous study, and peer teaching. All participants expressed positive perceptions regarding their learners’ experiences teaching introverted learners, suggesting the effectiveness of these strategies in enhancing the motivation of introverted learners and achieving educational objectives. The study highlights the imperativeness for educators to thoughtfully consider diverse characteristics of introverted students to foster their motivation within the classroom environment by exerting considerable effort to stimulate engagement from introverted EFL learners within the classroom setting.

This study investigates gender-based differences in students’ preferences and experiences with interactive quiz platforms Quizizz and Kahoot among English Tadris students at STAIN Mandailing Natal. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the research involved 30 participants, equally divided by gender (15 male and 15 female students), selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and document analysis, then analyzed thematically using Braun and Clarke’s framework. Four primary themes guided the analysis: ease of use, technical and accessibility features, learning motivation, and material comprehension. Findings indicate that while both male and female students preferred Quizizz for its intuitive design and support for self-paced learning, notable gender differences emerged in motivation and usage patterns. Male students favored Kahoot due to its competitive features, such as real-time leaderboards and time-bound questions, which enhanced engagement and fostered a stimulating classroom environment. Conversely, female students valued Quizizz’s calm, flexible learning experience, which minimized anxiety and allowed for deeper understanding through repeated practice and instant feedback. The results suggest that gender plays a critical role in shaping students’ engagement with educational technologies, particularly those that integrate gamification elements. The study highlights the importance of aligning technological tools with learners’ individual preferences to optimize engagement and learning outcomes. Practical implications point to the need for more inclusive and adaptive instructional strategies when integrating digital platforms in EFL settings. Future research is recommended to explore larger samples and diverse educational contexts for broader generalizability.
