Implementation of the Active Learning Model Using Wordwall Media in Improving Learning Outcomes

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of the Active Learning model using Wordwall media to enhance student learning outcomes in Sociology for class X J at SMAN 1 Pontianak. The method employed is qualitative with a descriptive approach, allowing the researcher to delve into the experiences and perceptions of both teachers and students. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and documentation, providing a comprehensive overview of the learning process.The results indicate that the application of the Active Learning model with Wordwall media creates an interactive and enjoyable learning environment. Students feel more motivated to actively participate in the learning process, as evidenced by their enthusiasm during various activities. Interactive quizzes, group discussions, and educational games increase student engagement and help them better understand the material. Additionally, the appealing Wordwall media reinforces students’ memory of sociological concepts.This learning model not only enhances academic understanding but also develops students' social skills, such as cooperation and communication. Engaging activities reduce boredom, allowing students to feel more confident in their participation. Overall, the use of Active Learning with Wordwall media has proven effective in improving learning outcomes in class X J.The study recommends implementing similar methods in other classes and subjects to enhance the quality of education. It is hoped that the findings will serve as a valuable reference for educators in designing more engaging teaching strategies, maximizing student potential, and improving their overall learning experiences. With this innovative approach, it is expected that students will not only gain better knowledge but also develop a positive attitude towards learning and foster a greater love for the subject of Sociology. Furthermore, further research could explore the long-term effects of using interactive media in various educational contexts and how it can be applied in different environments for optimal results.
