Abstract

This study aims to determine whether the use of the Wayground Platform has a significant effect on students’ learning motivation in the English subject at SMA Negeri 1 Colomadu in the academic year of 2025/2026. This study applies a quantitative pre-experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population comprises all tenth-grade students, while the sample includes 30 students from class X-8 chosen through cluster random sampling. The instrument is a Google Forms questionnaire consisting of 29 valid statements based on Uno’s six indicators of learning motivation. The researcher analyzes the data through manual calculation, with IBM SPSS Statistics 27. The analysis covers descriptive statistics, the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, and a paired-samples t-test. The mean score increases from 106.53 in the pretest to 111.60 in the posttest. The hypothesis test produces a t-count of 2.294, which is higher than the t-table value of 2.045, while the significance value of 0.029 is lower than 0.05. These findings indicate a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores. Therefore, H₀ is rejected and Hα is accepted. The Wayground Platform has a significant effect on students’ learning motivation and can serve as an interactive medium to support students’ enthusiasm and participation in English learning.
