The Effect of Wordwall Media with Interactive Boards on Students’ Learning Outcomes in the Classification of Living Things

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of using wordwall interactive board-based media on student learning outcomes in the subject of classification of living things. The study used a quasi-experimental design with two groups, namely an experimental class that used interactive wordwall media and a control class that applied conventional learning methods. The research subjects consisted of 64 students who were divided evenly into two classes, 32 students in each class. The research instrument was a multiple-choice test administered at the pretest and post-test stages. The data were analyzed using an independent t-test after fulfilling the assumptions of normality and homogeneity. The results showed that the average post-test score of the experimental class (86.67) was higher than that of the control class (71.67). The independent t-test produced a t-value of 6.073 with a significance of 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the two groups. Thus, it can be concluded that the use of interactive wordwall media contributes positively to improving student learning outcomes.
