Abstract

This study discusses using Bamboozle as a technology-based learning media to improve EYL vocabulary mastery. The Bamboozle website contains a variety of exciting games that can be utilized in learning. One of them is a quiz that displays images used by researchers in this study. This research uses quantitative methods with pre-experimental one-group pretest and posttest. The procedure of this design is giving a pretest, then giving treatment in the form of learning using Bamboozle, and then doing a posttest. This stage is used to see whether or not there is a change in the value that occurs before giving treatment (pretest) with the value after giving treatment (posttest). The research participants of this study were 5th-grade students consisting of 6 female students and six male students. The data processing results show a significant increase in pretest and posttest scores. The alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted because using the Bamboozle website can improve EYL vocabulary mastery.

Abstract

The main focus of this study is to analyze the activity in the "English Lesson" textbook utilized in contemporary Islamic boarding schools, which is published by Gontor Press. The researcher's objective was to conduct a thorough analysis of the English lesson book designed for sixth-grade students. In modern Islamic boarding schools, the sixth grade corresponds to the third grade in senior high school. This article employs qualitative research methods, specifically concentrating on content analysis proposed by Littlejohn (2011) regarding three main questions: What is the learner supposed to achieve? With whom? What material? Each question describes certain criteria that outline the elements of the three questions to describe the textbook material. Additionally, the author employs the idea of the ten principles of SLA proposed by Ellis (2005) to enhance the task-based analysis presented in the textbook. Findings indicate that vocabulary-based and sentence-building tasks have the potential to support L2 acquisition by providing both explicit and implicit knowledge. However, the analysis identifies a limited presence of interactive and communicative tasks. This research serves as a preliminary step before evaluating and highlighting the importance of SLA principles in designing effective English textbooks for Islamic boarding schools. This research can be used to increase the awareness of EFL teachers, English textbook material makers, and English textbook policymakers about the importance of SLA principles in textbook materials that can help students master English.
