Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji pengaruh penggunaan aplikasi kahoot untuk mempertahankan kosakata siswa di kelas dua SMP N 3. Peneliti menemukan beberapa masalah terkait kosakata siswa. Pertama, siswa kekurangan kosa kata. Kedua, siswa sulit menghafal kosakata. Ketiga, rendahnya motivasi siswa dalam proses pembelajaran. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian quasi eksperimen dengan menggunakan pretest-posttest eksperimental dan control group design. Sampelnya adalah siswa kelas II SMP N 3 X Koto, yaitu VIII.4 sebagai kelas eksperimen dan VIII.2 sebagai kelas kontrol. Penelitian ini menggunakan tes kosakata sebagai instrumen dalam pre-test dan post-test. Untuk menganalisis data, peneliti menggunakan uji t sampel independen dan uji t sampel berpasangan di SPSS 24. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan terhadap retensi kosakata siswa pada siswa yang diajar menggunakan aplikasi kahoot dan para siswa mengajar secara konvensional. Hal ini dapat dibuktikan dengan nilai Sig. (2-tailed) adalah 0,004 < 0,05 pada uji t sampel independen dan nilai Sig. (2-tailed) adalah 0,000 <0,05 dalam uji-t sampel berpasangan. Berdasarkan hasil data dapat disimpulkan bahwa penggunaan aplikasi Kahoot berpengaruh terhadap retensi kosakata siswa.
