Abstract

This study explores how English teachers in an Indonesian MGMP (Musyawarah Guru Mata Pelajaran) community perceive and integrate Kahoot in EFL classrooms. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected from six teachers through interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. The results show that teachers use Kahoot for various pedagogical purposes, including vocabulary review, grammar reinforcement, and formative assessment. Teachers also employed different integration strategies, using Kahoot as warm-ups, comprehension checks, and review activities. Despite challenges such as limited internet access, lack of devices, and time constraints, teachers observed significant improvements in student motivation, participation, and confidence. The study highlights the role of professional collaboration within MGMP in supporting technology use, and the importance of teacher agency in adapting digital tools to meet classroom needs. The findings suggest that teacher-mediated gamification through Kahoot can enhance both engagement and learning outcomes in EFL contexts, particularly when supported by reflective teaching practices and local collaboration.

Abstract

This study examines students' perceptions of the use of digital media in English language learning at Teacher Training and Education College of Insan Madani. Using a qualitative research approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with students enrolled in English language courses. The findings indicate that students perceive digital media as an effective and flexible tool that enhances their language acquisition. Platforms such as YouTube, Duolingo, Zoom, Google Classroom, and WhatsApp were particularly valued for their ability to provide authentic English exposure, interactive learning experiences, and opportunities for autonomous learning. However, despite the benefits, students also identified several challenges, including limited internet access, digital literacy gaps, and distractions from non-educational content. The study suggests that a blended learning approach, combining digital media with structured classroom instruction, could help mitigate these challenges and maximize the benefits of technology in English language learning. Additionally, institutions should focus on enhancing digital literacy training and improving internet accessibility to support students in effectively utilizing digital tools. This research contributes to the ongoing discourse on technology-enhanced language learning, particularly within the context of Islamic teacher training institutions, and provides insights for future studies on optimizing digital media use in English education.

Abstract

This study aims to develop effective and engaging basic English grammar learning materials using the YouTube social media platform for eleventh-grade students at SMK Negeri 2 Rantau Utara. The research employed the ADDIE development model, which includes five phases: Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate. Data collection techniques included expert validation, student questionnaires, and pre-test and post-test assessments. A total of 20 students participated in the trial implementation. The results of media validation showed a feasibility score of 86%, while content validation reached 93%, indicating that both the media and materials are valid for instructional use. Student feedback revealed high practicality, and learning outcome analysis showed significant improvement, with average post-test scores increasing from 75 to 93.2. These findings suggest that integrating YouTube as a learning platform can enhance students’ understanding of basic English grammar and contribute to a more interactive and student-centered learning environment.

Abstract

This study aims to design supplementary instructional materials in the form of a recipe-themed magazine tailored for vocational students in the Agribusiness and Agricultural Product Processing program. Conducted between February and March, the research applies the ADDIE development framework-comprising Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation phases. The participants included 20 Grade XI students. Data collection tools included validation forms, pre- and post-tests, interview protocols, and observation checklists. The material was deemed appropriate for educational use based on expert validation scores exceeding 62%, and its impact on reading skill improvement was measured through pre- and post-assessments. The findings confirmed the effectiveness of the developed material, with validation results from media experts (88.28% and 85%) and language experts (86%) indicating high feasibility. Students’ reading scores improved from a pre-test average of 65.9 to a post-test average of 71.3, affirming the magazine’s potential to serve as an effective learning support.
