Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation process of Digital Storytelling (DST) and examine its effects on the higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) of secondary school students in Surabaya. Using a quasi-experimental design, the research integrates quantitative data (HOTS tests, N-gain) and qualitative data (observations, interviews, and DST product analysis). The findings indicate a significant improvement in students’ HOTS scores, increasing from an average of 61.25 (medium–low) to 78.75 (medium–high), with an N-gain of 0.46 (medium–high). The rubric-based analysis of DST products revealed students’ abilities to generate original ideas, integrate multimedia, construct logical narratives, analyze information, and reflect on their thinking processes. The most substantial improvement occurred in the creating dimension, followed by analyzing and evaluating—aligned with the nature of DST as a creative production activity. This study highlights that DST functions not only as an instructional medium but also as a pedagogical instrument that fosters HOTS development through project-based learning, collaboration, and multimedia integration. The findings provide empirical insights for enhancing 21st-century learning strategies in Indonesia and offer an adaptable DST implementation model for teachers to support students’ creativity, analytical skills, and critical reflection.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of multimedia integration in improving the speaking competence of junior high school students. Four types of media were systematically implemented video modeling, pronunciation animation, AI-based applications, and digital storytelling within an instructional sequence consisting of input, guided practice, independent practice, and oral production. A mixed-methods approach was employed through pre–post test analysis, as well as student interviews and classroom observations. Quantitative results indicated significant improvement in fluency, accuracy, pronunciation, and confidence. The qualitative findings supported these results, revealing that multimedia enhanced students’ motivation, engagement, and self-confidence in speaking. This study demonstrates that multimedia-based learning is an effective and relevant strategy for teaching speaking at the junior high school level, emphasizing the importance of teacher readiness and digital facility support. The findings provide practical implications for instructional design and open avenues for further research within the context of Indonesian education.
