Abstract

The integration of digital technology in higher education has encouraged innovative approaches to English language teaching, particularly through gamification and Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL). This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of gamification-based English learning integrated with mobile-assisted tools in improving university students’ English learning achievement and motivation. Mixed-methods quasi-experimental design employing a non-equivalent control group pre-test–post-test model was adopted. The participants were 60 undergraduate students enrolled in a compulsory English course, divided into an experimental group receiving gamified mobile instruction and a control group receiving conventional teacher-centered instruction. Quantitative data were collected using achievement tests and a Likert-scale motivation questionnaire, while qualitative data were obtained through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews to explore students’ learning experiences. Statistical analysis showed that the experimental group obtained significantly higher post-test scores and motivation levels than the control group (p < .05). Qualitative findings further indicated that students perceived the gamified mobile activities as more interactive, engaging, and flexible, which encouraged active participation, collaboration, and autonomous practice beyond the classroom. Overall, the integration of gamification and mobile technology enhanced both cognitive outcomes and affective engagement. These results suggest that gamified mobile learning can serve as an effective and practical alternative instructional strategy for improving English language learning in higher education settings. Therefore, the approach offers valuable pedagogical implications for lecturers seeking to increase participation, motivation, and measurable performance while maintaining flexibility and accessibility for diverse learners across varied instructional contexts and technological infrastructures within contemporary university English education environments today widely globally.

Abstract

This study examines the technical efficiency and production elasticity of batik small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Banyuwangi Regency, Indonesia. Using panel data from 12 active SMEs observed between 2018 and 2023, the Cobb–Douglas production function is estimated through panel regression techniques. Model selection tests indicate that the Random Effect Model is the most appropriate specification. The results reveal that capital and production equipment significantly and positively affect output, whereas labor exhibits a significant negative elasticity, suggesting overutilization and managerial inefficiency. Raw materials show no statistically significant contribution to production performance. The estimated return to scale equals 1.63, indicating increasing returns to scale and implying that proportional input expansion generates more than proportional output growth. The model explains 89% of output variation, demonstrating strong explanatory power. These findings highlight the importance of capital access, technology upgrading, and labor optimization in improving SME productivity. The study provides empirical evidence to support efficiency-oriented policy interventions for traditional creative industries.
