Abstract

The creation of website-based learning media in English as a learning aid for students is an important topic in today's digital era. This article discusses the development process of an educational website that uses interactive content to help students learn topics by including various features, such as fun video animations, interactive games, and quizzes. Users and experts feedbacks are the important part of the development cycle, allowing for continuous improvement and refinement of the website. This project was conducted using the Research and Development method with the 4D model, namely Define, Design, Development, and Disseminate. The research results were obtained after the web-based learning media was presented and validated by teacher, media expert, and material expert, so that the media was valid and suitable for use.

Abstract

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in enhancing the writing skills of grade XI students at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Purwokerto. The study used a quasi-experimental design with an experimental group taught using PjBL and a control group using Direct Instruction (DI). The sample consisted of 59 students, and data were collected through pre-test and post-test measuring their argumentative writing skills. The results indicated that the experimental group showed a significant improvement in their writing skills, with an average increase of 10.24 points (Δ = 10.24) compared to the control group's 6.13 points (Δ = 6.13). The independent t-test results demonstrated a significant difference between the two groups at the 0.004 level. These findings suggest that PjBL is more effective than DI in enhancing students' writing abilities, fostering creativity, and encouraging critical thinking. The study highlights the importance of implementing innovative, student-centered approaches in writing instruction.
