Ta’tsīr Istikhdām Wasīlah Wordwall fī Tanmiyat Qudrat Talāmīdz al-Shaff al-Thāmin ‘alā al-Qawā‘id al-Naḥwiyyah bi Madrasah Nūr al-Taqwā al-Islāmiyyah al-Mutawassiṭah bi Syamāl Jākartā
Abstract
This study aims to examine eighth-grade students’ proficiency in Arabic grammar (the topic of nouns) and to investigate the effect of using Wordwall as a learning medium on their grammatical proficiency at Nurul Taqwa Islamic Junior High School in North Jakarta. The study employed a quantitative approach using a pre-experimental one-group pre-test and post-test design. The sample comprised all 26 eighth-grade students. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests and analyzed using descriptive statistics, a paired-samples t-test, Cohen’s d effect size, and the normalized gain (N-Gain) coefficient. The results revealed an increase in the mean score from 50.19 on the pre-test to 82.50 on the post-test, accompanied by a decrease in the failure rate from 57.69% to 3.85%. The absolute value of the calculated t-statistic was 8.981, with 25 degrees of freedom and a significance level of less than 0.001. The analysis also indicated a large effect size (d = 1.76) and a moderate normalized gain (0.65). These findings suggest that using Wordwall was associated with a statistically significant improvement in students’ Arabic grammatical proficiency. However, the absence of a control group limits the extent to which a causal relationship can be established. This study contributes quantitative empirical evidence on the use of gamification-based digital learning media in teaching the topic of nouns at the junior high school level within the Indonesian educational context.
