<![CDATA[The use of YouTube Education as a learning resource has become increasingly relevant in technology-enhanced learning; however, studies examining its relationship with students’ learning outcomes in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) at the junior high school level remain limited. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the use of YouTube Education and students’ learning outcomes in ICT at SMP Negeri 4 Padang Panjang. The study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design and involved 135 eighth-grade students selected through saturated sampling. Data on the use of YouTube Education were collected using a 20-item Likert-scale questionnaire, whereas data on learning outcomes were obtained from documented ICT midterm assessment scores. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, validity testing, reliability testing, the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, and Spearman’s rank correlation. The results showed a correlation coefficient of 0.409 with a significance value of less than 0.001, indicating a positive and significant relationship of moderate strength between the use of YouTube Education and students’ learning outcomes. These findings provide empirical evidence regarding the role of audiovisual learning resources in supporting ICT learning. This study concludes that YouTube Education should be used purposefully as a supplementary learning resource. Future studies are recommended to broaden the research settings and populations and employ experimental designs to examine the effectiveness of its use in greater depth.]]>
