Abstract

This research investigated the impact of the "Learn English Listening App" on eighth-grade students' listening comprehension. The design of Classroom Action Research (CAR) was used in this study. Two cycles of pre and post-tests, observations, and interviews were conducted. In the first cycle, the app did not lead to a statistical improvement in listening. The mean post-test score (57) was lower than the mean pre-test (61). The observations indicated a positive attitude towards the app, yet some students underutilized its potential, highlighting the need for further support. Interviews provided insights, emphasizing the importance of additional guidance in applying the application. In the second cycle, the students were maximized to utilize the app, significantly improving listening comprehension (mean score: 72.67). The t-test analysis showed a difference (t ≈ 2.43) between the pre and post-test, confirming the app's effectiveness. The observations during the second cycle showed enhanced engagement. The "Learn English Listening App" proved valuable for enhancing eighth-grade students' listening skills. The classroom action research approach allowed for iterative adjustments, contributing to improved scores. In conclusion, the second cycle's t-test results, supported by classroom observations and interviews, provide robust evidence of the app's positive impact. Educators at Islam Al-Azhar 17 Pontianak and similar settings can consider integrating technology-based interventions like the app to enhance students' listening comprehension. Further research could explore its long-term effects and impact on other language skills.

Abstract

Students’ engagement is crucial for the success of listening activities, especially at the junior high school level. This study aimed to enhance students’ engagement in English listening activities using EDpuzzle, focusing on eighth-grade A students at SMP Islam Al-Azhar 17 Pontianak. Conducted over two cycles with 20 participants, the study addressed issues like distractions, disengagement, difficulty understanding audio, and feelings of frustration. The research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design, involving two cycles of planning, action, observation, and reflection. Instruments used included observation checklists, tests, and field notes. Qualitative analysis showed a marked increase in engagement during the second cycle, after introducing EDpuzzle Station Challenge activities. EDpuzzle’s interactive features—visually engaging content, embedded questions, and the option to rewatch videos—made the listening experience more accessible and enjoyable. This boosted cognitive, behavioral, and emotional engagement, leading to better attendance, active participation, and fewer disruptions. Descriptive statistics revealed notable improvements, with 86.67% of students showing higher emotional engagement, 78.33% displaying increased cognitive engagement, and 86.67% showing improved behavioral engagement. Additionally, 85% of students scored above the success threshold in listening comprehension tests, particularly in identifying degrees of comparison and summarizing video content. In conclusion, EDpuzzle enhanced students’ engagement by creating a more interactive and enjoyable learning environment.
