Abstract

The development of video learning media for the English course at the Islamic Religious Education Study Program, Universitas Muhammadiyah Gorontalo, aims to enhance the learning experience and improve student engagement. This research explores the design, implementation, and effectiveness of video-based instructional materials tailored to the needs of students in this specific academic context. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study collects data through surveys, interviews, and performance assessments to evaluate the impact of video learning on student comprehension, retention, and satisfaction. Preliminary findings indicate that video learning media significantly contribute to better understanding of course content, increased motivation, and active participation in the learning process. This development not only addresses the challenges of traditional classroom settings but also aligns with contemporary educational trends towards digital learning. The study underscores the importance of integrating multimedia resources in higher education to foster an interactive and dynamic learning environment.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model on the motivation and learning outcomes of English among students of the Elementary School Teacher Education (PGSD) program at Universitas Muhammadiyah Gorontalo. The background of this research stems from the low level of student engagement in English learning, which impacts their academic achievement. PBL was chosen as it emphasizes solving contextual problems relevant to students’ lives, thereby expected to enhance active participation, curiosity, and critical thinking skills. This research employed a quasi-experimental method with a pretest–posttest control group design. The sample consisted of 50 students divided into an experimental group (using PBL) and a control group (using conventional teaching). Research instruments included a learning motivation questionnaire based on the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ) and an English achievement test. Data analysis was conducted using independent t-tests and paired t-tests. The results revealed a significant improvement in learning motivation and achievement in the experimental group compared to the control group (p < 0.05). The implementation of PBL proved effective in increasing student engagement, fostering independent learning, and improving academic outcomes. These findings recommend the application of PBL as an innovative learning strategy for English courses in PGSD programs.
