Abstract

Unhealthy digital habits among junior high school students, including excessive gaming and prolonged social media use, have raised concerns about their impact on students’ creativity, focus, and real-world interaction. This study investigates the role of English graffiti art as an innovative pedagogical approach to shaping healthier digital practices among students at a private junior high school in Medan. Employing a qualitative case study design, the research was conducted with three classes of seventh-grade students who participated in classroom activities that integrated graffiti art into English language learning. Data were collected through preliminary surveys documenting students’ digital habits, student-created artifacts reflecting awareness and attitudes toward technology use, classroom observations capturing engagement and collaboration, and reflective journals and interviews with students and teachers, providing deeper insights into their perceptions. Quantitative data from surveys were analyzed using descriptive statistics to identify students’ awareness of their digital healthy habits. Triangulation of findings across multiple sources strengthened the validity of interpretations. Results indicate that integrating graffiti art into English learning can raise students’ awareness of their digital behaviors, encourage creative expression, and promote more balanced technology use. The study concludes that arts-based pedagogy offers meaningful potential not only for enhancing linguistic and creative skills but also for addressing contemporary challenges in students’ digital well-being.

Abstract

Salah satu faktor penyebab rendahnya minat siswa dalam belajar bahasa Inggris adalah kurangnya kepercayaan diri serta adanya ujaran negatif yang diterima ketika melakukan kesalahan berbahasa. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kepercayaan diri siswa SMA Swasta Muhammadiyah 1 Medan melalui penulisan ekspresif dan afirmasi positif. Tahapan kegiatan meliputi pengisian kuesioner daring, diskusi kelas, pemutaran video power of words dan afirmasi positif, penulisan ekspresif – dear me dalam bahasa Inggris, serta refleksi akhir. Hasil kuesioner menunjukkan bahwa siswa menyadari pentingnya kemampuan berbahasa Inggris dan memiliki keyakinan untuk mengembangkannya, meskipun sebagian masih merasa cemas dan kurang percaya diri. Kegiatan pengabdian ini mengajak siswa untuk memahami pentingnya menggunakan kata-kata positif terhadap diri sendiri yang dapat dilakukan memalui kebiasaan menulis diary atau journaling (ekspresif writing). Tulisan ekspresif, afirmasi positif, serta refleksi pembelajaran memperlihatkan peningkatan kesadaran siswa akan pentingnya percaya pada diri sendiri, menyayangi diri, berfokus pada tujuan, serta mengabaikan pendapat negatif dari orang lain. Kebiasan menulis secara ekspresif melalui diary atau journaling dalam bahasa Inggris diharapkan dapat memberikan kesempatan pada siswa untuk melatih kemampuan berbahasa Inggrisnya, menambah kosa kata, dan tentunya membangun rasa percaya diri dari afirmasi positif yang ditulis setiap hari.

Abstract

This research investigates the influence of animated videos integrated with Scenario-Based Learning (SBL) on the speaking proficiency of Grade X students at SMA Negeri 17 Medan during the 2025/2026 academic year. Speaking proficiency is frequently recognized as a significant challenge for high school students, necessitating innovative pedagogical approaches to effectively foster student engagement and skill acquisition in modern classrooms. The study employed a quantitative true experimental design featuring a pre-test and post-test control group structure. The population comprised parallel Grade X classes, from which 30 students were meticulously selected through a random sampling technique. This sample was divided into an experimental group (n=15), taught using animated videos integrated with SBL, and a control group (n=15), receiving conventional instruction. Speaking proficiency was assessed through oral performance tests evaluating pronunciation, fluency, accuracy, and vocabulary.Data analysis conducted using a paired samples t-test revealed significant improvements across both groups. The experimental group’s mean score rose from 62.7 to 88.1, while the control group’s score increased from 59.4 to 76.1. Testing yielded a t-value of 7.491, exceeding the t-table value of 2.145 (df=14) with a significance value (p) of 0.000. These results indicate that the integration of animated videos with SBL exerts a statistically significant positive effect on students' speaking proficiency. The findings suggest that this integrated approach creates an engaging, interactive, and meaningful environment. By providing contextualized scenarios through visual media, students can better internalize linguistic components. Consequently, this instructional strategy is recommended as an effective tool for educators to enhance communicative competence.
