Abstract

This research aims to analyze the effect of using the Duolingo application on students' mastery of English in the English Education Study Program at one of the universities in Indonesia. A quantitative approach was used in this study, using data collection methods through a Likert scale-based questionnaire adopted from scientific articles. Respondents were selected using a purposive sampling technique, using the criteria of students who have used the Duolingo application for at least one month. The questionnaire consisted of closed-ended statements that measured the intensity of Duolingo application usage and students' English mastery level, including vocabulary, reading, writing, listening, and grammar skills. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression to determine the relationship between the independent variable (intensity of Duolingo usage) and the dependent variable (English language acquisition). The results showed that using the Duolingo application significantly influences students' mastery of English. Duolingo allows students to learn independently outside of class in a more fun and interactive way and improve their English skills effectively. This finding indicates that Duolingo can be used as an effective supplementary learning medium in the context of English language education.

Abstract

Peningkatan keterampilan berbahasa Inggris menjadi kebutuhan esensial dalam dunia pendidikan, terutama bagi siswa di lingkungan boarding school yang membutuhkan pendekatan pembelajaran yang lebih efektif dan komprehensif. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan keterampilan bahasa Inggris siswa secara terpadu (integrated skills) melalui metode pelatihan. Mitra dalam kegiatan ini adalah 32 siswa dari Boarding School Mua’llimin Lombok Barat. Pelaksanaan kegiatan diawali dengan sosialisasi kepada guru mengenai metode integrated skills dan pemanfaatan media pembelajaran digital, kemudian dilanjutkan dengan pelatihan intensif kepada siswa. Pelatihan ini dirancang untuk mengembangkan empat keterampilan utama dalam bahasa Inggris, yaitu mendengarkan, berbicara, membaca, dan menulis, secara simultan. Evaluasi dilakukan melalui penyebaran angket yang terdiri dari 14 butir soal untuk mengukur efektivitas pelatihan. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan adanya peningkatan keterampilan bahasa Inggris siswa sebesar 22,72%. Selain itu, siswa menunjukkan keterlibatan aktif selama sesi pelatihan, serta peningkatan kepercayaan diri dalam menggunakan bahasa Inggris secara lisan maupun tulisan. Keberhasilan program ini mengindikasikan bahwa metode integrated skills dan penggunaan media digital efektif dalam meningkatkan kualitas pembelajaran bahasa Inggris. Diharapkan hasil pengabdian ini dapat menjadi referensi bagi program serupa di lingkungan pendidikan berbasis asrama.
