A scaled test conducted with a questionnaire was used to collect data. Questionnaires were distributed to students of class VIII.A UPT SPF SMPN 40 Makassar to find out students' English learning motivation before and after treatment. Total of 34 students of class VIII.A were sampled in this study. The results of descriptive statistics showed that the average score of students' motivations increased significantly from 31.41 in the pre-test to 54.94 in the post-test. The t-test results showed (1) a significant difference in student motivation (Y) before and after using ClassPoint (X), with a significance value of 0.000. In addition, the N-Gain value of 1.51 indicates a substantial increase in student motivation, which places it in the high classification category. (2) learning goals were the most influential indicator, with an increase of 99%. This finding showed that ClassPoint is highly effective in increasing student motivation, especially in terms of learning goals.
