Abstract
Critical thinking skills and vocabulary mastery are two essential aspects in the process of learning English. Critical thinking enables students to analyze information and solve problems logically, encompassing aspects such as (1) basic clarification, (2) bases for decision, (3) inference, (4) advanced clarification, (5) supposition and integration, and (6) strategies and tactics. Meanwhile, vocabulary mastery plays a crucial role in enabling students to construct sentences or statements accurately and effectively. These two skills are interrelated, as constructing correct statements requires students to think deeply and systematically.
In the modern era, one digital media that can be used is the Charades Game, which is believed to stimulate critical thinking activities as well as enrich students’ vocabulary. This study aims to investigate the influence of using the Charades Game on the critical thinking skills and vocabulary mastery of students at SMPN 4 Ponorogo.
This research employed a quantitative approach with a comparative design, by comparing the results of the respondents. The respondents were selected using purposive sampling, with two classes determined one as the control group and one as the experimental group. The instruments used in this study included a questionnaire and tests (pre-test and post-test). The data were analyzed using Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANOVA) after meeting the assumptions of normality and homogeneity. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS software.
Based on the results of data analysis, it was found that there was a significant effect of using the Charades Game on the critical thinking skills and vocabulary mastery of the students at SMPN 4 Ponorogo. The MANOVA analysis showed showed that the use of the Charades Game had a statistically significant overall effect on students’ critical thinking and vocabulary mastery (Wilks’ Lambda = 0.844, F(2,60) = 2.702, p = 0.031, Partial Eta Squared = 0.156). This finding indicates that the Charades Game meaningfully contributed to the improvement of both variables. The data analysis result indicates that this study leads to the rejection of null hypothesis and the acceptance of alternative hypothesis, which mean that there was a significant influence in using charades game on students’ critical thinking and vocabulary mastery at SMPN 4 Ponorogo.
