Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe how the Snake and Ladder Game was included into speaking training for the eleventh-grade students at SMAN 1 Papar Kediri during the academic year 2025–2026 and to look at how involved the students were in the process. For this study, a qualitative descriptive design was used. Field notes, instructional documentation, and speaking evaluations utilising a grading rubric were used to gather data. The results showed that the Snake and Ladder Game was integrated using a planned process with phases for planning, carrying out, and evaluating. Speaking challenge cards based on Analytical Exposition books were added to the game board to encourage students to make a thesis statement, provide evidence, and address opposing ideas. Students' participation during the implementation demonstrated positive growth in social, emotional, and behavioural domains. Through small-group exercises, the turn-taking system fostered peer connection and scaffolding, encouraged oral participation from all students, and made the classroom more lively and communicative. Students' speaking orientation, however, continued to be primarily focused on the instructor rather than their classmates. This study offers a contextual knowledge of how a classic board game might be effectively included as a senior high school speaking teaching tool.

Abstract

English vocabulary mastery is fundamental to developing language proficiency; however, many elementary school students still experience difficulties in learning and retaining English vocabulary due to the limited use of interactive instructional media. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Assemblr Edu on the English vocabulary mastery of fourth-grade students at SDN Lirboyo 2 during the 2024/2025 academic year. A pre-experimental research design employing a one-group pretest-posttest approach was adopted. The participants consisted of 28 fourth-grade students selected through total sampling. Data were collected using vocabulary tests administered before and after the implementation of Assemblr Edu, which integrated the AR Viewer and Instant Presentation features to teach vocabulary related to Things in the Living Room and Bedroom. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, and the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The findings revealed that students' mean score increased from 75.36 on the pre-test to 90.36 on the post-test. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test indicated a statistically significant improvement in students' vocabulary mastery (Z = -4.406, p < .001), with 25 students showing improved scores, three students maintaining the same scores, and none experiencing a decrease. These findings demonstrate that Assemblr Edu is an effective technology-enhanced learning medium for improving English vocabulary mastery among elementary school students by providing interactive, visual, and contextual learning experiences. The study suggests that integrating Augmented Reality into English vocabulary instruction can support more engaging and meaningful learning for young EFL learners.
