Abstract

This research aimed to improve the vocabulary mastery of tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Torue through an innovative learning method, namely by listening English songs. The low ability of students to remember, pronounce, and use new vocabulary in the correct context was the problem of the students expanding their vocabulary. This research used a quasi-experimental research design involving two groups: the experimental group that was taught using songs and the control group that was taught using conventional methods. The population is 369 students. A total of 60 students from classes XB and XC participated in this research, and data were collected through a pre-test and post-test to measure the improvement of students’ vocabulary mastery, especially on verbs, nouns, and adjectives. The results of the research present a significant increase in students’ vocabulary mastery after utilizing English songs. The mean post-test score of the experimental group increased from 45 to 89, while the control group only increased from 46 to 76. The hypothesis test using a t-test indicated that the t-value (6.14) was higher than the t-table value (2.042), which suggested that listening to English songs is effective in improving students’ vocabulary mastery. This research concludes that the use of songs as a learning medium could create a fun learning atmosphere and increase students’ motivation to learn English.

Abstract

Flashcards are learning media in the form of double-sided cards that contain images and words. The objective of this research is to prove whether the use of flashcards can increase vocabulary of the seventh-grade students of SMPK GPID Sumbersari. This research used a quasi-experimental design involving two groups: experimental and control groups. The population consisted of two seventh grade classes. The data were collected through vocabulary test, which was administered twice as pre-test and post-test. Because the data were not normally distributed, the data were analyzed using the Mann- Whitney U test through SPSS version 24. The results showed that the difference between the post-test scores of the control and experimental classes differences significantly from 67 to 88. The Mann-Whitney test showed that both the experimental and control classes had a significant improvement (Z = -2.102, p = 0.036). It indicates that the research hypothesis is accepted. Thus, the use of flashcards can increase vocabulary of the seventh-grade students of SMPK GPID Sumbersari.

Abstract

This research aims to enhance the vocabulary mastery of seventh-grade students by applying digital flashcards in English learning at SMP Negeri 20 Palu. A quasi-experimental research design with a non-equivalent control group was employed. The population comprised 106 seventh-grade students, and the samples were selected using cluster random sampling, with class VII A assigned as the experimental group and class VII B as the control group. Data collection was carried out through pre-tests and post-tests to examine students’ improvement in vocabulary mastery. The findings revealed that students in the experimental group obtained a higher average post-test score (72.00) compared to those in the control group (56.13). Statistical analysis conducted using SPSS version 25 showed a significance value of p = 0.000, which is lower than 0.05, indicating that the alternative hypothesis was accepted. These results confirm that digital flashcards are effective in improving students’ vocabulary mastery. Furthermore, the pedagogical implications of this research indicate that integrating digital media into vocabulary instruction can foster students’ motivation, active participation, and independent learning, while also supporting the adoption of technology-based teaching practices in the classroom.
