KEBERKESANAN MODUL FLIPPED CLASSROOM TERHADAP PENCAPAIAN BAHASA JERMAN DAN KETERLIBATAN PELAJAR

Abstract

Learning a foreign language should be fun. Sitting hours passively in the classroom and memorizing grammatical rules in the classroom – this kind of learning experience is banal and not fruitful. Students who failed to use the grammar learned in German Language learning are a catalyst for the implementation of this study which studies German Language learning by using the Flipped Classroom. Flipped Classroom transforms the concept of concrete-walled classroom to the unobstructed classroom. Flipped Classroom is effective when students are actively involved in learning and active involvement contributes to quality and meaningful learning. This study used quasi-experimental designs, a precisely repeated-measures design where three treatment sessions were carried out on samples comprising 36 students in session 1, 35 students in sessions 2 and 3. T-test parametric tests, one-way ANOVA and one-way ANCOVA are used to analyze the quantitative data of intervention effects on the achievement of the German language. While t-test, one-way ANOVA and MANCOVA were implemented to analyze the quantitative data of intervention effects on student involvement in German Language grammar learning. The findings showed that after the treatment was given, there was no significant difference in the mean score of German Language Achievement in learning German grammar. Besides, the analysis of the findings found that there was no significant difference in the mean score of the Student Engagement among the students in the experimental group and control group after the intervention took place in session 1, session 2 and session 3. However, students following the Flipped Classroom Module showed better improvement in German language achievement and student engagement compared to students following the Traditional Module. Flipped Classroom is suggested to be integrated into German grammar learning completely. With this, grammar teaching and learning will become more interesting and more effective. In addition, German language grammar teaching and learning activities will be organized and every minute in the classroom can be fully utilized by teachers and students.
