Abstract

In the digital era, reading comprehension of multimodal texts that integrate written language with images, videos, and interactive elements has become crucial yet challenging for many students. This mixed-methods study investigated the effectiveness of a multimodal instructional approach in enhancing reading comprehension among 120 Indonesian high school students. The quantitative component employed a quasi-experimental design with pre/post reading comprehension tests, while the qualitative component utilized observations and interviews. The results revealed that the experimental group receiving multimodal instruction achieved significantly higher reading comprehension scores compared to the control group receiving traditional text-based instruction (F(1, 117) = 12.68, p < .001, ηp2 = .098). The multimodal approach was particularly beneficial for students with lower initial reading proficiency levels. Qualitative data indicated increased engagement, motivation, comprehension facilitation, accommodation of diverse learning styles, and the need for technology integration support and instructional scaffolding. The findings align with multimedia learning theory and differentiated instruction principles, providing empirical evidence supporting the integration of multimodal elements to create engaging, accessible, and effective reading experiences. Implications for teacher professional development, curriculum design, and future research directions are discussed. Overall, this study contributes to the growing literature on multimodal literacy pedagogy and offers practical insights for enhancing reading instruction in the 21st century multimedia landscape.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of Loora, an artificial intelligence (AI)-based language learning application, in improving English speaking skills and grammatical accuracy among university students. Using a qualitative case study approach involving 10 participants, this study explores how Loora provides real-time and personalized feedback that encourages independent, reflective, and active language use in line with Swain's Output Hypothesis. The results indicate that Loora significantly improves students' confidence, awareness of grammatical errors, and speaking habits by providing detailed explanations and instant corrections. Despite limitations such as a small sample size and infrastructure challenges, the findings suggest that AI-based tools like Loora can effectively support language learning by making feedback more accessible and engaging. This study highlights the potential of integrating innovative technological solutions into language education to enhance learning autonomy, grammatical accuracy, and overall speaking ability.

Abstract

This study explores young learners’ perceptions of Kahoot as a digital game-based instruction tool in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classrooms. The research was conducted with 18 fourth-grade students (ages 9–10) at a private elementary school in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia. Most participants were at beginner to lower-intermediate English proficiency levels with varied digital literacy. Data were collected over a period of three weeks using observation and interviews and analyzed thematically. Findings revealed that Kahoot positively influenced students’ learning experiences in several ways. First, it significantly increased motivation and engagement, with 14 students reporting greater enthusiasm compared to textbook-based lessons. Second, all students highlighted the fun and interactive nature of Kahoot, supported by visual and auditory features that encouraged participation. Third, 12 students emphasized its effectiveness in vocabulary and grammar acquisition, while half (9 students) reported increased self-confidence in language use. However, challenges were also identified, including technical issues, limited variety of activities, and stress caused by competition for a few learners. Overall, the study concludes that Kahoot can serve as an effective supplement to EFL instruction for young learners, fostering motivation, confidence, and language acquisition. Practical recommendations are provided for teachers, policymakers, and developers, along with suggestions for future research.

Abstract

This study was prompted by the importance of technology in language learning, especially in improving students' speaking abilities. One of the technologies used is the Loora application, a mobile-based language learning (MALL) application that uses AI to provide automatic feedback and simulate everyday conversations. This study investigates how the Loora application improves students' speaking ability. The study population was 9th-grade students at MTs Al-manar in Deli Serdang, North Sumatra, with a sample of 20 students selected through purposive sampling. The research method used was classroom action research, which consisted of two cycles. Data collection was conducted through a pre-test as a diagnostic test, and a post-test was conducted each cycle to measure the improvement of students' speaking ability and interviews to understand students' experience using this application. The results showed a significant improvement in accuracy (pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar) and speaking fluency. The highest increase occurred in the vocabulary aspect, with a percentage increase of 38.49%, followed by grammar by 22.05% and pronunciation by 17.72%. Meanwhile, speaking fluency increased by 17.57%. From the analysis, the accuracy aspect experienced a higher increase than fluency, where the accuracy score increased by 21.22% and fluency by 17.57%. The interview results confirmed the students' improved speaking skills and highlighted their favorable experiences with the Loora app. They felt more confident in speaking after using Loora, and they appreciated the automatic feedback feature that helped them correct mistakes and better understand English. This positive experience underscores the app's user-friendliness, which is encouraging for both educators and app developers. This research shows that the Loora application can be a learning media that significantly improves students' speaking abilities. Educators are advised to consider using MALL-based technology when teaching languages, as it can enhance students' speaking ability. These findings can potentially be used by application developers to increase the interactive elements of their language learning apps, hence increasing their potency in developing students' speaking abilities.

Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of the Falou English application in enhancing the speaking skills of seventh-semester English Department students. Using a qualitative approach through questionnaires and interviews, the research investigates how students’ experiences with the app influence their speaking fluency, confidence, and academic communication. The findings show that students perceive the app as a helpful and engaging tool, providing interactive features and real-time feedback that support consistent and confident speaking practice. Despite its benefits, students also encountered several challenges, including technical issues, limited content access, and cultural or linguistic mismatches.
