Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of the Word Search game in improving vocabulary mastery among fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 5 Pagaralam. A quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups was used, involving two purposively selected classes. The experimental group received vocabulary instruction through the Word Search game, while the control group was taught using conventional strategies. Vocabulary tests were administered to both groups, and the results were analyzed using paired and independent sample t-tests at a 0.05 significance level. The paired sample t-test for the experimental group showed a t-obtained value of 15.063, exceeding the t-table value of 2.074 (p = 0.000), indicating a significant improvement between pre-test and post-test scores. The independent sample t-test revealed a t-obtained value of 5.552, greater than the t-table value of 2.021 (p = 0.000), confirming a significant difference between the experimental and control groups. These findings demonstrate that the Word Search game is an effective medium for enhancing vocabulary mastery. Its engaging and interactive format increased motivation, provided repeated exposure to target words, and promoted collaborative learning. The study suggests that integrating educational games into language instruction can enrich learning outcomes and foster a more enjoyable, student-centered classroom environment.

Abstract

This study investigated whether there was a significant difference in vocabulary mastery between fourth-grade students at SD Negeri 5 Pagaralam who were taught using the Word Guessing Game and those who were not. It used a quasi-experimental design with pre-test and post-test control groups. Two classes were selected through purposive sampling: IV.C as the experimental group and IV.D as the control group. A multiple-choice vocabulary test was administered before and after treatment. Data were analyzed using paired and independent t-tests. The independent t-test showed a t-obtained value of 4.979, which was higher than the t-table value of 2.009 at a 0.05 significance level. These results indicate that the Word Guessing Game significantly improved students’ vocabulary mastery. Therefore, this game can be considered an effective method for enhancing English vocabulary learning.

Abstract

This study aims to map the development of research and scientific publications on the competencies and leadership skills of school principals at the junior high school (SMP) level. This study uses a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach to analyze 103 scientific articles identified through the PRISMA procedure. The articles analyzed were sourced from the Scopus database and published between 2013 and 2024. Data analysis was conducted using bibliometric tools VOSviewer and CiteSpace to identify topic trends, thematic clusters, and scientific contributions in this field. The results of the study revealed four main thematic clusters in the study of principal leadership in junior high schools, namely instructional leadership practices, community involvement and cultural values, knowledge and policy interventions, and assessment and evaluation. The leadership practices cluster was the most dominant theme, reflecting the importance of the principal's role in improving the quality of learning and institutional management. This research contributes to the development of evidence-based and multidisciplinary educational leadership studies and provides a conceptual basis for formulating more contextual and adaptive school principal development policies in response to global challenges. A limitation of this study is the use of data from a single database, Scopus, which does not fully reflect the entire available literature landscape. Therefore, further research is recommended to utilize additional references from reputable databases such as Web of Science and EBSCO.

Abstract

This study examines the persistent challenges faced by Indonesian students in developing English-speaking skills. The aim of the research is to analyze the primary barriers that hinder their speaking fluency and to offer effective pedagogical recommendations. A qualitative approach was employed through a literature review by synthesizing various academic sources focused on English as a Foreign Language (EFL) learning in Indonesia. The findings reveal that students generally struggle with vocabulary acquisition, grammatical accuracy, and low self-confidence. In addition, the lack of exposure to authentic communication, teacher-centered instructional methods, and cultural norms contribute to students' reluctance to speak. Technological barriers, such as limited access to digital tools and the internet, further reduce speaking practice opportunities, particularly in rural areas. This study recommends the integration of communicative tasks into classroom routines, enhanced student engagement with authentic digital content, and the creation of a supportive learning environment where mistakes are viewed as part of the learning process. These strategies are expected to improve students' fluency, motivation, and overall ability to communicate effectively in English.

Abstract

In an era characterized by rapid technological change and global uncerainty, educational innovation is vital for preparing future generations to thrive. This study investigates four interrelated pillars of educational transformation: the integration of technology, active and collaborative pedagogy, the development of soft skills, and the analysis of systematic challenges. Drawing from authoritative sources such as UNESCO, OECD, and the World Economic Forum, this research emohasizes that innovation goes beyond adopting tools-it requires rethingking educational aims, structures, and delivery. The methodology includes literature analysis and conceptual synthesis, focusing on both internal (leadership, curriculum, school culture) and external (policy, social support, global challenges) factors that influence innovation. The findings highlight the need for inclusie, equity-driven reforms supported by proffesional development, flexible curricula, and community engagement. The study concludes that authentic innovation fosters ethical, resilient, and adaptable learnes. Therefore, a holistic approach-combining technological advancement with pedagogical and systemic change-is essential to ensure education remains relevant and transformative. The insights provided serve as a framework for policymarkers, educators, and institutions aiming to design sustainable educational systems for the future.

Abstract

Listening comprehension is a foundational component of English language proficiency, yet many junior high school EFL learners struggle when instruction relies primarily on teacher-centered, audio-only practices. This study investigated whether the use of Edpuzzle, an interactive video-based platform with embedded questions, significantly improves students’ listening comprehension. A quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test design was implemented with two intact seventh-grade classes at SMPN 1 Jatimulyo (experimental n = 32; control n = 32) during the 2025/2026 academic year. Students completed a listening comprehension test before and after three instructional sessions. Descriptive statistics indicated that the experimental group improved from M = 78.91 (SD = 12.49) to M = 85.94 (SD = 10.73), while the control group improved from M = 69.69 (SD = 8.61) to M = 78.59 (SD = 8.64). Because at least one distribution did not meet the normality assumption, between-group differences were tested using the Mann-Whitney U test, which showed a statistically significant difference in post-test scores (U = 308.00, Z = -2.77, p = .006). The findings suggest that integrating interactive video through Edpuzzle can enhance learner engagement and support listening outcomes in EFL classrooms.
