English proficiency is vital for academic and professional success in Indonesia, but students often struggle with writing. Descriptive text composition is challenging due to its intricate structure and linguistic elements. To overcome these challenges, the researcher suggests utilizing the Miro Application, a digital whiteboard tool known for fostering interactive collaboration and effectiveness in dynamic learning activities. The study aims to assess Miro's impact on enhancing 8th grade students' descriptive text writing skills at SMP Negeri 2 Sutojayan. The study utilizes a quantitative experimental approach, specifically a pre-experimental design, conducted at SMP Negeri 2 Sutojayan over one month, from November to December 2023. The population includes all 8th grade students, with a purposive sample of 31 students from a single recommended class. This research, conducted with 8th-grade students at SMP Negeri 2 Sutojayan, employed a one-group pre-test post-test design. Data analyses covered normality, homogeneity, and paired sample t-tests. Normality test values (0.095 and 0.088) aligned with good data distribution. Homogeneity test (0.067) affirmed data homogeneity, indicating methodical soundness. The hypothesis test for Miro Application based learning impact yielded a significant result (0.000 < 0.05). Miro Application significantly affected post-test scores, presented digitally via mobile phones. Finally, The Miro Application demonstrated effectiveness in enhancing descriptive text writing skills.

This study utilizes a quantitative approach and follows a pre-experimental design with a one-group pre-test-post-test design. The study population consists of students enrolled in the Faculty of Social and Political Science. The sampling technique use random sampling to select a sample of 31 students in the second semester class. Data collection is conducted through the use of pretest and posttest measures. The Shapiro-Wilk normalcy test is employed for doing normality testing. The Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test is a non-parametric statistical method employed for data analysis in this research. According to the data, the average score in the pretest and posttest increased from 76.87 to 86.97. The normalcy test indicates that the pretest has a significance value of 0.000, whereas the posttest has a significance value of 0.002. The significance value analysis indicates that the dataset obtained from 31 students does not follow a normal distribution, as evidenced by a significance value of less than 0.05. The analysis results from the test statistic output show that the asymp. sig. (2-tailed) value is 0.000 < 0.05. A significance value smaller than 0.05 indicates that there is an average difference that makes Ha accepted and Ho rejected. It can be concluded that there is a significant effect of the Beelinguapp application to enhance the reading comprehension of recount text of eighth-class students at Faculty of Social and Politics Science. The researcher aspires for this study to serve as a research reference for upcoming research.
