Abstract

This study aimed to determine whether the use of Educaplay could improve students’ learning outcomes on descriptive text material in the tenth grade of SMA Negeri 2 Moro’o. The research employed a Classroom Action Research (CAR) method conducted in two cycles. Each cycle consisted of four systematic stages: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. Based on the results of the data analysis, the findings revealed that the students’ average score in the pre-test was 40.50. After the implementation of Educaplay in Cycle I, the average score increased to 63.50. A more significant improvement was observed in Cycle II, where the students’ average score reached 85,50. These findings indicate a continuous and consistent improvement in students’ learning achievement following the implementation of Educaplay-based learning media. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the use of Educaplay effectively improved students’ learning outcomes and served as a solution to the problem of low learning achievement that had been encountered during the teaching and learning process. Therefore, it is recommended that teachers continuously integrate Educaplay as an innovative learning medium in English language teaching in order to optimize students’ learning outcomes.
