Abstract

The research aims to analyze and develop a mobile-based grammar learning application and the perceptions of computer vocational high school students regarding the use of the application in the learning process. The main focus of this research is developing a mobile-based grammar application for computer users, which enhances students' independence in the grammar teaching process, along with examining how the application was put into practice. This learning media was created using the ADDIE Model, which includes analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The waterfall method, dart programming language, and Flutter framework are used to create the application. After the implementation stage, this research used a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative survey data collected through Google Forms with Likert Scale and paragraph question types. The findings from this study shed light on the needs, attitudes, preferences, and feedback from students for improvement regarding the utilization of mobile grammar apps for language learning. The analysis shows that students have a positive experience when learning grammar using this app, as it allows them to extend their learning beyond the classroom without time and place restrictions. The data analysis provides valuable insights into the effectiveness and potential drawbacks of integrating such apps into the curriculum. These insights contribute to the ongoing discourse on technology integration in education and offer practical implications for educators, curriculum designers, and educational policymakers who want to improve language teaching through digital devices in vocational high schools.

Abstract

This research aimed at knowing the effectiveness of online learning design with an e-portfolio approach in increasing self-efficacy in speaking ability. Seventy-seven students were involved in this study. They are in the second semester of a vocational college in Business Administration Department in the academic year 2020/2021. This research is experimental research with implementing paired samples t-test as the measurement tool in knowing the effectiveness of e-portfolio based learning by finding the t score and the sig value before and after the implementation of the teaching method. The result of this study showed that e-portfolio based learning had a significant effect on the student's self-efficacy in their speaking ability. It was indicated by the value of the sig and t result from paired samples t-test analysis which was showed 0.000 as the sig value and -20.551 as the t count. The result of sig value which is below 0.05 and the t-count which is above t-table were clear indicators to argue that e-portfolio significantly impacted the student's self-efficacy in speaking ability. In this case, the variables of self-efficacy in speaking ability were improved significantly by the implementation of e-portfolio based learning. Even the implementation of e-portfolio brings many positive impacts on the students, some limitations lie on this method implementation. The limitation of this method lies in the time execution and the number of students who are taught by the lecturer.
