Abstract

The integration of digital technology in education has brought new opportunities to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. One of the most promising innovations is gamification, particularly through platforms like Kahoot, which offers a dynamic and interactive environment for learning. This paper explores the application of Kahoot in vocabulary instruction for English language learners, particularly those from Generation Z who exhibit high digital literacy and preference for interactive learning experiences. Drawing upon a descriptive qualitative approach, the article reflects on how Kahoot’s features—such as real-time quizzes, competitive elements, and instant feedback—can transform vocabulary learning from a monotonous task into an enjoyable and effective classroom activity. The study discusses various types of Kahoot activities (quizzes, jumbles, surveys, and discussions), highlights implementation strategies for both online and face-to-face contexts, and evaluates the pedagogical advantages and potential challenges. Findings suggest that using Kahoot in vocabulary instruction not only enhances student motivation and participation but also supports better retention and comprehension. Limitations such as dependence on internet connectivity and the potential for speed to outweigh content mastery are also addressed. This paper offers practical insights for language teachers aiming to innovate vocabulary teaching using digital game-based learning tools.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the types of teacher talk and learner talk that occur during English classroom interactions at the Eight Grade of Junior High School Al Hikmah Darussalam Boarding School. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, involving one English teacher and 22 eighth-grade students. Data were gathered through direct observation and in-depth interviews, and analyzed using the Flanders Interaction Analysis Category System (FIACS). The findings reveal that the most frequent type of teacher talk was Asking Questions, followed by Praises or Encourages, Giving Directions, and Lecturing. In terms of learner talk, Learner Talk Response was most dominant, followed by Learner Talk Initiation, with some instances of Silence or Confusion. These results indicate that classroom interaction was primarily teacher-centered, with students showing limited initiative and providing mostly short responses. The lack of student idea contribution led to an imbalanced interaction. This research is expected to contribute both practically and theoretically to the improvement of English language teaching, especially in enhancing classroom interaction to be more communicative and to encourage students to use the target language more actively.
