Abstract

ABSTRACT This research was conducted because it was discovered that students had a lot of difficulty learning vocabulary, especially adjectives, and it was set against the background of several student problems. For instance, utilizing continuous paper-based learning to teach vocabulary resulted in boredom and could demotivate students who were still unable to distinguish between verbs, nouns, and even adjectives. Dealing with that, one alternative solution was provided to the problem by implementing the learning media and choosing the memrise application media to be tested in the learning process to teach adjectives. The objective of this research was to know the effectiveness of using memrise application towards students' adjective mastery. Thus, this research used a research method in the quantitative approach, and a quasi-experimental design was applied. The samples were divided into two classes, and they were chosen using cluster random sampling. The instruments in this research were tests in the form of pretest and posttest, the results of which were analyzed using an independent sample t-test of IBM SPSS version 25. The hypothesis testing results revealed that a significant value of 0.025 was obtained with a significance level for the equal variance assumption of α = 0.05. Thus, Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. It meant that there was a significant effect in using memrise application towards students' adjective mastery. Furthermore, based on the results of the gain normalization test, the N-Gain score for the control class was 0.46 (46%), with a less effective interpretation, while for the experimental class was 0.58 (58%) with an effective enough interpretation. Therefore, it could be stated that the memrise application can be used and is effective as a learning media for the mastery of adjectives for seventh grade students of SMP N 3 Pringsewu. Keywords: Learning Media, Memrise Application, Students’ Adjective Mastery
