This study aims to improve the interest of Class X.2 students in learning Economics at SMA Negeri 16 Pekanbaru by using an interactive learning tool called wordwall. From the initial observation, students showed low interest in Economics. This was seen from their lack of attention, low participation, and limited engagement during lessons. This research used Classroom Action Research (CAR), done in two cycles. Each cycle included planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data was collected using observation sheets and student questionnaires based on indicators like enjoyment, curiosity, attention, and active involvement. The results showed that students’ interest in learning improved after using wordwall. Before the research (pre-cycle), 50% of students had low learning interest. After the first cycle, their interest improved to a medium level, with 50% of students in the "adequate" category. In the second cycle, their interest increased even more, with 64% of students showing very high interest. These results show that wordwall is helpful in increasing students’ interest in learning Economics.
