The Use Of Powtoon As Teaching Media

Abstract

This Best Practice aims to describe the steps of teaching English by using powtoon. Teaching media is an intermediary tool used by teachers to deliver teaching materials to students in the teaching and learning process to achieve certain learning objectives. Based on what I found during Field Study Program, there are grade XI high school students whose interest in learning has decreased in learning English, because of the monotonous English learning method, which makes students bored. That's why I made a Powtoonbased animated video so that students become more interested in learning English. I use Powtoon-based animated videos while learning English through online learning because I want to know how effectively students can understand the lessons delivered by the teacher using Powtoon-based animated videos. I only did this research for grade XI high school students.The results of the observations I made when the Powtoon-based animated video was used were that students became more active and more interested in learning English. In addition, they can also learn English material through Powtoon-based animated videos that I have uploaded on Youtube and shared with students via Google Classroom.
