Abstract

Abstract: This study aimed to describe the process of implementing Arabic song videos and find out their impact on student learning outcomes at MI Plus Al Munjiyat Kediri City. The researcher conducted Classroom Action Research (CAR) on 15 students in Grade VI. In the learning process, students were invited to learn Arabic while singing vocabulary and sentences through videos, so that learning became more creative, fun, and easy to understand. The researcher used tests, observations, and documentation to collect data, then analyzed the differences in average learning outcomes before and after the video was implemented. The results showed a significant increase in the average student score, from 42.7 in the pre-test to 87.9 in the post-test. This occurred because the use of videos and songs made students more active, enthusiastic, and able to understand the material more easily. In addition to the cognitive aspect, the motivational and student participation aspects also improved. Thus, the use of Arabic song videos proved to be a creative and useful learning medium, not only for achieving learning goals but also for creating a lively, fun, and meaningful learning atmosphere for students.Keywords: Learning Videos; Arabic Songs; Student Learning Outcomes

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of audiovisual media in teaching Mahārah Istimāʿ (Arabic listening skills) by integrating behaviorist and cognitivist approaches. Responding to the challenges of passive learning methods and low student engagement, this research applies a mixed methods design to evaluate both student performance and learning experience. Twenty-nine eighth-grade students at SMPIT Adzkia, Jombang participated in the study. Quantitative data were gathered through pre- and post-tests, while qualitative insights were obtained via classroom observations and interviews. The findings indicate a notable improvement in students' listening comprehension after the use of audiovisual media. Students not only achieved higher scores but also demonstrated increased focus, motivation, and participation during lessons. Audiovisual content provided contextual and visual reinforcement, helping students associate meaning and recall information more effectively. From a behaviorist view, audiovisual media acted as a stimulus that shaped students’ responses through repetition and engagement. Cognitively, it supported active processing by combining visual and auditory input, which enhanced understanding and memory retention. The study concludes that audiovisual media is an effective instructional tool for improving Arabic listening skills, offering both academic benefits and a more engaging learning experience. It suggests that integrating audiovisual media in language instruction can bridge pedagogical gaps, particularly in digital-era classrooms where students respond better to interactive and multisensory content.
