Abstract

Speaking ability is essential in 21st-century education, yet many students still struggle with limited vocabulary, unclear pronunciation, and low comprehension. This study examined the impact of two digital storytelling applications, Read to Me and Fairytales, on enhancing students’ speaking ability. A quantitative approach with a quasi experimental method are used in this research. The research was conducted at a private senior high school in Bogor using non-equivalent control groups design. Two tenth-grade classes were selected, both of classes chosen randomly by lottery system, with one group using Read to Me and the rest of the class using Fairytales. The research focused on speaking ability with the component vocabulary, pronunciation, and comprehension. The results were analyzed using an independent samples t-test, which showed a significant difference between the groups’ post-test scores (t = 2.32, df = 63, p < 0.05). The experimental group which is treated by Read to Me showed greater increased, likely due to features such as audio narration, highlighted text, and adjustable speed, which offered better language input. In conclusion, digital storytelling with interactive elements can effectively influences students’ speaking ability in phase E.

Abstract

Baamboozle can be an effective learning medium for teaching vocabulary in vocational English classes. Learning English in vocational contexts, such as hospitality, requires engaging methods that suit students’ needs. This research aims to investigate whether there is a significant effect of using Baamboozle and Wordwall as digital game-based learning media, and whether there are significant differences between the two in enriching students’ vocabulary mastery on Front Office topics, especially Check-In service. The researcher used a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test given to both experimental and control groups. The experimental group was treated with Baamboozle, while the control group used Wordwall. The results of the paired sample t-test showed a significant improvement in both groups. However, the independent t-test revealed a significant difference in favor of the experimental group, indicating that Baamboozle was more effective in enriching vocabulary. The combination of Baamboozle’s collaborative game-based features and role-play activities contributed to students’ better vocabulary comprehension and engagement. Based on the result, it is recommended that teachers consider using interactive digital games like Baamboozle to make vocabulary learning more effective, contextual, and enjoyable, especially in vocational schools where practical communication is essential.
