Keywords:
youtube media, learning outcomes, indonesian language learning, educational technology, elementary schoolAbstract
This study was conducted to investigate the use of YouTube media in Indonesian language learning among Grade VI students at SD Inpres 6, Sorong Regency. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was employed. The population and sample consisted of all 10 Grade VI students, selected through total sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires, observation, and documentation, with the Indonesian language lesson plan (RPP) covering two thematic units as the primary instructional instrument. Analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel. The results demonstrated that students' scores increased significantly from the pre-test to the post-test following the implementation of YouTube media in Indonesian language learning. The post-test mean score was higher than the pre-test mean, leading to the acceptance of H1 and the rejection of H0. Questionnaire results further revealed that all 10 students responded positively, with scores categorized as 'very good' (sangat baik). These findings confirm that the use of YouTube media exerts a positive and significant influence on Indonesian language learning outcomes among Grade VI students at SD Inpres 6, Sorong Regency.
