Abstract

This study aims to determine: (1) the level of communication skills and learning outcomes before and after application of Nearpod interactive media with the discovery learning, (3) the improvement in communication skills and learning outcomes after implementation, (3) the effect of implementing Nearpod interactive media on communication skills and learning outcomes. This study used a pre-experimental method with a One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The research population consisted of 89 eighth-grade students at SMPN 4 Sinjai, using the purposive sampling technique. The instruments used included a communication skills questionnaire (20 statements) and a learning outcome test (25 multiple-choice questions). The results showed that (1) Before implementation, communication skills were in the moderate category (score of 67.67) and learning outcomes were in the low category (score of 7.59). (2) After implementation, communication skills increased to the high category (score of 79.48) and learning outcomes to the moderate category (score of 15.04). (3) There was an increase in communication skills (N-Gain 0.37) and learning outcomes (N-Gain 0.42), both in the moderate category. (4) There was a significant effect with t count > t table for both communication skills (4.460 > 1.706) and learning outcomes (15.659 > 1.706).
