This study aims to analyze and describe in depth the implementation of Wayground-based interactive quizzes in enhancing Arabic learning engagement among ninth-grade students at MAS Muhammadiyah 1 Medan. The research employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive phenomenological method. Research subjects and key informants included the Arabic language teacher and 30 ninth-grade students at MAS Muhammadiyah 1 Medan. Data were collected through participatory classroom observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation analysis. Data analysis followed the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana model comprising data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. Data trustworthiness was ensured using source and technique triangulation. The results revealed that the application of Wayground-based interactive quizzes effectively boosted student learning engagement across visual, oral, listening, and motor activities. The integration of gamification elements such as live leaderboards, instant feedback, and time-based challenges transformed the previously rigid classroom atmosphere into a dynamic, interactive, and enjoyable learning environment. Students exhibited heightened enthusiasm, active participation, and enhanced confidence when responding to Arabic vocabulary (mufradat) and grammar (qawa'id).
