Kampus Mengajar 6 program in this study took place at SDN Adikarto 1 Muntilan. This study aimed to improve the vocabulary skills of fourth-grade students using Wordwall.Net and monitor the increase in vocabulary mastery of each student. The reason for conducting this study is that almost all students need help understanding new vocabulary and lack interest in learning English. Therefore, the researcher used Wordwall.Net to achieve the desired goals of both the Kampus Mengajar and this research. This study used the class action research method and data processing using qualitative descriptive techniques. The results were obtained in the pre-cycle with an average of 54.41, while in the post-cycle with an average of 65.33. There was an increase of 10.92, as well as an increase in each student's grade in the first and second cycles.","PeriodicalId":374192,"journal":{"name":"IJIET (International Journal of Indonesian Education and Teaching)","volume":"54 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141663335","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Flipped learning is a model that redefines traditional classroom activities, enhances engagement, and deepens understanding. Integration with Moodle, a widely used Learning Management System (MLS), creates a structured environment for content delivery. The study involves creating Arabic language modules on Moodle, including instructional videos, multimedia, and interactive exercises. These modules support self-paced learning, enabling students to review materials before class, with in-class time dedicated to collaborative activities. Effectiveness will be assessed through quantitative and qualitative measures, including pre- and post-assessment tests, surveys, and focus group discussions. Anticipated outcomes include improved language proficiency, increased participation, and enhanced communication skills. Validating the flipped learning platform using Moodle at Al-Hikmah University will provide valuable insights into language education, particularly for enhancing Arabic communication skills. The study's novelty lies in its innovative use of flipped learning, customized application of Moodle, focus on a unique demographic, and practical approach to language acquisition. This research offers a blueprint for future implementations in diverse educational settings, promoting the broader adoption of technology-enhanced learning methods.","PeriodicalId":374192,"journal":{"name":"IJIET (International Journal of Indonesian Education and Teaching)","volume":" 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141670087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quantitative data were collected using 24-item questionnaires addressed to two different groups of students: breakout room and main room students. Qualitative data were collected by interviewing six respondents from the breakout room group to explore their opinions regarding the breakout room’s effectiveness in promoting online engagement. The independent sample t-test towards the quantitative data revealed a significant difference between online engagement that occurred in the Breakout room compared to the Zoom main room (t=-4.922, df=89, p0.05). Further, it was found that Zoom breakout rooms were able to facilitate online engagement in the five engagement aspects, namely social, collaborative, behavioral, emotional, and cognitive engagement. These findings imply that Zoom Breakout rooms can be optimized to boost online engagement.","PeriodicalId":374192,"journal":{"name":"IJIET (International Journal of Indonesian Education and Teaching)","volume":"6 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139601923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study aimed to determine if test anxiety levels among male secondary school students and their academic performance in mathematics are related. Two research questions and two hypotheses were used in the study. The study's design was a correlation. The research population consisted of all 1650 senior secondary year two (SS2) math students in Delta State. A sample of 771 male students was selected using a multistage sampling process. The Mathematics Test Anxiety Questionnaire (MTAQ), which was validated by three experts, was the instrument used to collect data. The reliability coefficient, calculated using Cronbach's alpha, was 0.69. The students’ mathematics scores represent their academic performance. To analyze the data, Pearson product-moment correlation was employed. The study's findings demonstrated that test anxiety levels did not correlate academic performance of male students in secondary school mathematics.

This article looks into the level of job burnout and satisfaction of high school teachers during modular distance learning and determines its association at different levels. Cross-sectional primary data were gathered from a random sample of secondary teachers in Ormoc City, Leyte, Philippines. The gathered data were job burnout and satisfaction scores and described using standard statistical metrics. Moreover, correlation and regression analysis were employed to analyze its association, and K-means clustering was used to identify homogeneous categories of job burnout and satisfaction scores with similar characteristics. On average, results showed that the high school teachers were still “satisfied” despite the “high burnout” they were facing during the modular distance learning amid the pandemic. Using the correlation analysis, it is revealed that teachers’ satisfaction and burnout are significantly and inversely correlated to each other. This implies that the burnout level adversely affects the satisfaction in teaching. Based on regression analysis, there is a decrease of 0.653 units in the satisfaction perception score for every 1 unit increase in the burnout perception score and it is significant at a 1% level. It is depicted in K-means clustering that teachers’ satisfaction and burnout levels are compact and converge to the interpretation that they were highly burnout yet satisfied in modular distance learning. Hence, the study suggests that teachers' tasks during distance education must be lessened to increase their well-being as educators.","PeriodicalId":374192,"journal":{"name":"IJIET (International Journal of Indonesian Education and Teaching)","volume":"67 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139606528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
