Abstract

Abstract: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Wayground learning media in improving the economic learning motivation of grade XI students at SMA Negeri 12 Medan. This research used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design involving an experimental class and a control class. The experimental class was taught using Wayground learning media, while the control class used conventional learning methods supported by PowerPoint. Data were collected through observation and questionnaires using a Likert scale. The data were analyzed through validity, reliability, normality, homogeneity, and independent sample t-test. The results showed that all questionnaire items were valid, and the instrument was reliable with a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.770. The hypothesis test showed a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating a significant difference between the experimental and control classes. Therefore, Wayground learning media is effective in improving students’ economic learning motivation.
