Abstract

This study aimed to develop Edpuzzle application as learning media in listening descriptive text. The research applied a Research and Development (R&D) design, adapting Borg and Gall’s model into six simplified stages. The data were obtained from two main sources, fifteen eighth-grade students at SMP Islam Al Ulum Terpadu Medan and one expert in English education who served as a validator. Data collection techniques included needs analysis to identify students’ needs, wants, lacks, and familiarity with the Edpuzzle Application, and an expert validation process to evaluate the product’s linguistic, process, layout, product, and content. The instruments of data collection consisted of a structured needs analysis questionnaire for students and a validation sheet for the expert. The techniques of data analysis combined quantitative and qualitative methods: students’ questionnaire responses were analyzed using percentage formulas, while expert judgments were scored on a Likert scale and described qualitatively. The findings were obtained through six steps: (1) gathering data and information from literature, previous research, and online descriptive texts; (2) conducting needs analysis which showed students’ priority on short, interactive, and culturally relevant videos; (3) designing the first draft by converting the descriptive text into video with embedded interactive questions; (4) validating the product by an expert; (5) revising the product; and (6) producing the final Edpuzzle video. Consequently, the final product is valid and suitable for classroom use, earning a score of 8.5 out of 10, which places it in the “Very Good” category.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze teacher conversations in the “Descriptive Text” learning video from MAS Ponpes Darul Qur'an using Sinclair and Coulthard's discourse model. With a qualitative descriptive design, data were collected through video observation and transcribed to identify exchanges, movements, and actions in classroom interactions. The results show that the Initiation–Response–Follow-up (IRF) structure dominates classroom discourse, with teachers taking most of the initiative through questions, explanations, and directions, while students generally provide brief and limited responses. Teacher follow-ups are mostly evaluative, using praise and confirmation, which helps maintain motivation but does not expand student cooperation. The discussion highlights that while this teacher-centered approach ensures clarity, structure, and regularity, it also limits opportunities for students to provide longer and more creative responses. The study concludes that teacher talk has a dual role: as a facilitator of learning and as an obstacle when it is too dominant. More varied strategies, such as open-ended questions and in-depth feedback, are recommended to create a more interactive and student-centered classroom environment.

Abstract

Abstract. This study aims to describe students’ motivation toward online learning at Universitas Negeri Medan and to identify the underlying reasons for such motivation. The research employed a descriptive qualitative design, utilizing the ARCS (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, Satisfaction) motivational model and Expectancy-Value Theory as the theoretical frameworks. Data were collected through an online questionnaire distributed to 34 English Education students and semi-structured interviews with 5 purposively selected participants. The results indicated that all four components of the ARCS model were in the moderate category, with mean scores of 3.16 for Attention, 3.29 for Relevance, 3.20 for Confidence and 3.20 for Satisfaction. While students appreciated the flexibility and accessibility of online materials (high utility value), they frequently experienced boredom and mental fatigue due to limited social interaction and the "artificial" nature of screen based learning (high cost and low intrinsic value). The study concludes that students remain motivated primarily due to professional aspirations rather than engaging instructional designs. These findings suggest that educators should implement more interactive strategies to enhance student engagement in digital environments.
