Year: 2024
Type: article
Study design: Clinical Trial
Abstract: This quantitative study meticulously evaluated the effects of the Baamboozle application on seventh-grade students' vocabulary acquisition, particularly within the context of descriptive text. Utilizing a pre-experimental design, the study implemented a one-group baseline and follow-up tests model to assess the intervention's efficacy. Data was collected using baseline and follow-up tests. The statistical analysis was performed through paired sample T-tests by utilizing SPSS 25. The findings indicated a substantial improvement in students' average vocabulary scores, increasing from 57.25 to 73.00, with a Sig. (2-tailed) value of less than 0.05, confirming statistical significance. The result underscores the value of integrating Baamboozle into English instruction, highlighting its potential to significantly escalate learning outcomes and amplify student engagement. Future research should focus on comparative studies assessing Baamboozle's efficacy relative to other digital learning platforms, such as Duolingo, Busuu, Lingodeer, and similar tools, to further advance and optimize vocabulary teaching strategies.
