Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of Wordwall in enhancing vocabulary related to recount texts among eighth-grade students at SMPN 01 Gandusari. Using a pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design with 28 students, the research involved pre-tests, treatment, and post-tests to collect data. The validity and reliability of the test were confirmed before administering it to the respondents. Analysis using a paired sample t-test in SPSS 24.0 revealed a significant improvement in students' vocabulary scores, increasing from a pre-test average of 70.14 to a post-test average of 83.29. The results indicate that Wordwall significantly enhances students' vocabulary achievement in recount texts. The study suggests that teachers incorporate Wordwall into English lessons to make learning more engaging and compelling, potentially extending its use to other topics. Additionally, students are encouraged to review recount text materials regularly. At the same time, future research could explore student and teacher responses to Wordwall or compare its effectiveness with other language learning tools like Duolingo or Busuu.

Abstract

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of Jamboard in enhancing the vocabulary achievement of seventh-grade students at SMPN 1 Gandusari, particularly in describing places and understanding meanings, synonyms, and antonyms. The research employed a one-group pretest and post-test pre-experimental design involving 32 students. The methodology included three key phases: pretest, treatment, and post-test. Tests were used to gather data, and before administering the test to the participants, the test's reliability and validity were ensured through preliminary trials. Data analysis was conducted using paired sample t-tests with SPSS 25. The findings revealed a significant improvement in students' vocabulary achievement, with scores increasing from an average of 63.63 in the pretest to 92.25 in the post-test. The paired sample t-test indicated a Sig. (2-tailed) value of less than 0.05, confirming a significant difference in learning outcomes between the pretest and post-test. This suggests that Jamboard effectively improves the vocabulary of seventh-grade students at SMPN 1 Gandusari, particularly in describing places. Based on these results, it is recommended that teachers incorporate Jamboard into English language instruction to make learning more engaging. Teachers could also use Jamboard to teach other topics. Additionally, students are encouraged to regularly review vocabulary related to describing places. Future research could explore student and teacher responses to Jamboard for different subjects or compare its effectiveness with other language learning tools such as Duolingo, Baamboozle, and Beelingoapp.
