<![CDATA[Meaning, spelling, pronunciation, word classes, and word use are the five main focus areas of this study as it explores how students might use the Duocards application to increase their vocabulary mastery. Fourteen eighth-grade students from SMP Negeri SATAP Sering in Soppeng, South Sulawesi, selected by cluster random sampling, participated in this study using a pre-experimental design. To collect data, vocabulary tests were given as pretests and posttests. SPSS 26 was then used for analysis. The average pretest score increased from 37.71 to 73.78 in the posttest, indicating a considerable improvement in the students’ vocabulary competence, according to the data. Furthermore, the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (H1) was accepted because the two-tailed significance value was 0.000, less than 0.005. These findings suggest that the Duocards application has improved the students’ vocabulary mastery.]]>

<![CDATA[This research aims to analyze the influence of online learning on students' learning styles at SMP Negeri 5 Polewali. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought significant changes in the world of education, especially through the sudden shift from face-to-face learning to online learning. This study aims to analyze the effect of online learning on students' learning styles at SMP Negeri 5 Polewali. This research used qualitative methods with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation. The research sample involved students of class IX A. The results showed that there are various obstacles in the implementation of online learning, such as limited technology and internet access. However, online learning also affects students' learning styles, which are divided into three main types: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. Students with visual learning styles find it easier to understand material through pictures and videos, while auditory students are helped more by verbal explanations. Kinesthetic students have difficulty in online learning due to limited physical activity. This research concludes that learning styles affect the effectiveness of online learning, and teachers need to adapt teaching strategies to suit the needs of each learning style to improve student learning outcomes. This research provides implications for the development of more effective and inclusive online learning strategies in the future.]]>
