Abstract

This study aimed to enhance students' English vocabulary through the integration of narrative texts and board games in classroom instruction. Employing a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design, the research was conducted with tenth-grade students at MA Miftahul Ulum Bettet. An initial pre-test was administered to assess students' baseline vocabulary knowledge. In Cycle 1, narrative texts and board games were introduced to facilitate contextual understanding of word meanings. Cycle 2 implemented a more interactive learning approach, encouraging students to identify and comprehend vocabulary from narrative texts while actively engaging with board games. Data collection methods included vocabulary tests, vocabulary analysis, and classroom observations. The findings revealed a consistent improvement in students’ vocabulary acquisition across the two cycles. Notably, there were significant gains in both vocabulary comprehension and retention. The study concludes that the combined use of narrative texts and board games constitutes an effective and engaging strategy for vocabulary development in English language learning.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of Instagram quizzes as an interactive tool for enhancing vocabulary acquisition and grammar comprehension among English learners. This research employs a qualitative narrative inquiry approach, involving in-depth interviews and observational analysis of fifth-semester English language students at Universitas Islam Madura. Findings reveal that Instagram quizzes significantly enhance student engagement, motivation, and knowledge retention due to their interactive and gamified nature. A comparative analysis highlights the superiority of Instagram quizzes over traditional learning methods in terms of accessibility, immediacy of feedback, and sustained learner interest. However, challenges such as internet dependency, screen fatigue, and over-reliance on digital tools underscore the necessity for a balanced pedagogical approach.
