<![CDATA[This study aims to examine the effectiveness of a contextual learning approach assisted by Kahoot-based ICT media in improving the poetry writing skills and learning motivation of junior high school students. Using a quasi-experimental design, this research involved two classes from a junior high school in Cimahi, with one class receiving the contextual approach assisted by Kahoot, and the control class receiving a conventional contextual approach. Data were collected using pre-test, post-test, and motivational questionnaires. Results indicate that students who received the contextual approach with Kahoot demonstrated significantly higher gains in poetry writing ability and motivation compared to those in the control group. Furthermore, a positive correlation was found between students’ writing skills and their learning motivation. The findings suggest that the integration of interactive ICT media, such as Kahoot, enhances the effectiveness of contextual learning in poetry writing instruction.
