Abstract

This research aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Elsa Speak application as a learning media to improve students’ English-speaking skills in the extra class at MA Al-Bairuny. The research used a quasi-experimental design with two groups: an experimental group taught using the AI-based Elsa Speak application, and a control group taught without the application. The research began with a pre-test to assess students’ speaking abilities. The average pre-test score of the experimental group was 57.33, while the control group had an average of 61.67. During the treatment, the experimental group practiced speaking using Elsa Speak, which offers features such as pronunciation analysis and instant feedback. The control group continued learning through traditional methods without the application. After the treatment, a post-test was conducted. The experimental group showed significant improvement with an average score of 70.00, increasing by 12.67 points. Meanwhile, the control group showed only slight progress, with an average post-test score of 62.33, an increase of just 0.67 points. The results indicate that Elsa Speak is effective in improving students’ pronunciation, fluency, and confidence. This research highlights the potential of AI-based technology to enhance the quality of English language education in the digital era.

Abstract

Vocabulary mastery is fundamental to English language learning because it supports effective communication across listening, speaking, reading, and writing; however, many junior high school students experience difficulties acquiring vocabulary because of limited exposure to authentic language use and the continued predominance of conventional instructional practices. This study aimed to examine the effect of the HelloTalk application on students’ vocabulary mastery and explore students’ and their teacher’s perceptions of its implementation in English language learning. A mixed-methods approach with a convergent parallel design was employed, involving 32 seventh-grade students and one English teacher at SMPN 1 Prambon. Quantitative data were collected through vocabulary pretests and posttests and analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics, whereas qualitative data were obtained through questionnaires, interviews, and classroom observations and analysed through data reduction, data display, conclusion drawing, and verification. The findings showed that the students’ mean vocabulary score increased from 78.8 on the pretest to 92.3 on the posttest, demonstrating improved vocabulary mastery following the implementation of HelloTalk. The qualitative findings further revealed positive perceptions among the students and teacher, particularly regarding the application’s interactive features, ease of use, opportunities for authentic communication, and contribution to students’ motivation and confidence in learning English. The study concludes that HelloTalk can serve as an effective mobile-assisted language learning application for enhancing vocabulary mastery and facilitating more interactive, authentic, and learner-centred English instruction. These findings contribute empirical evidence regarding the pedagogical value of mobile-assisted language learning and provide practical implications for English teachers seeking to integrate communication-based digital applications into vocabulary instruction.

Abstract

AbstractAt the elementary school level, English is one of the mandatory local content for students. Several factors in learning English at school lead to low memory and understanding of English vocabulary at the elementary school level. One is that the media used in some schools could be more varied, so it does not attract students' interest in learning. This PKM program was carried out by the academic community of KH University. A. Wahab Hasbullah Tambakberas Jombang. This PKM program aims to increase the interest and enthusiasm of students and is accompanied by an increase in their English vocabulary. The method used in this PKM program is Community Based Research (CBR). Based on the results of observations and implementation, the training provided makes it easier for teachers to teach English to their students. This can be seen from students' responses during the learning process and the questionnaire results given to 20 grade 4 students at SDN Kedungrejo Megaluh. The result is an increase in students' memory of English vocabulary from their activity when given some questions to provoke their memory of the material being taught. The PKM activities can be a reference for teachers to create an innovation in a learning system so that students can easily understand the subjects they are studying.Keywords: Training, Learning Media, Flashcard AbstrakPada jenjang Sekolah Dasar, mata pelajaran Bahasa Inggris merupakan salah satu muatan lokal wajib bagi peserta didik.
