Abstract

This study explores the impact of Quizizz as a diagnostic assessment platform on the motivation and perceptions of third-grade students at SMPN 3 Tigaraksa in their English lessons. A quantitative research design was employed, using a questionnaire distributed to 35 students, with results analyzed through descriptive statistics. The ages of the samples in this research are between 14 and 15 years old. The questionnaire utilized a four-point Likert Scale based on their agreement and disagreement. This questionnaire was distributed through Google Forms. The study’s findings revealed that using Quizizz increased students' intrinsic motivation and positive perceptions of learning English. The students found learning English to be more enjoyable and engaging. The competitive and engaging use of Quizizz resulted in greater interest and confidence in English language learning. Related to the limitation of this research is that it focuses solely on Indonesian ESL students, which may restrict the generalizability of the findings to learners in other cultural or linguistic contexts. This study offers insightful information for teachers to use technology-integrated learning methods, such as Quizizz, as a diagnostic assessment platform. It can motivate and help teachers design more effective teaching strategies according to ESL students' needs in learning English.

Abstract

Although many researches have examined its application of Merdeka curriculum, Indonesian current curriculum, in teaching practice, little research has examined its psychological impact on students, especially regarding their motivation and interest in learning English. Addressing this gap, this study investigates the impact of the implementation of the Merdeka curriculum on the motivation and interest of grade X students from one of the public high schools in Mancak, Serang, Banten, Indonesia. A quantitative survey research design was used using a structured questionnaire distributed to sixty-two students. The questionnaire consisting of twenty close-ended items was based on a four-point Likert scale to measure student motivation and student learning interest. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, including mean, standard deviations, frequencies, and percentages. The results showed that students were highly motivated and interested in learning English through the Merdeka curriculum. Students found learning English enjoyable, meaningful, and relevant to their lives. Future studies should include qualitative methods to gain deeper insights and involve schools from different regions to further validate the findings. This study offers empirical insights for educators and policymakers to improve English language learning by implementing a flexible and student-centered approach under the Merdeka curriculum.
