Abstract


Vocabulary acquisition is fundamental to effective Arabic language learning because it supports students’ listening, speaking, reading, and writing development. This study aimed to examine the influence of Arabic learning media on seventh-grade students’ Arabic vocabulary acquisition. The study employed a quantitative quasi-experimental design involving 30 seventh-grade students divided into an experimental class and a control class, with 15 students in each group. Data were collected through pretest–posttest vocabulary tests, classroom observation, interviews, and documentation, and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality testing, homogeneity testing, and an independent samples t-test. The findings showed that the experimental class improved from a pretest mean of 50.30 to a posttest mean of 87.33, while the control class improved from 53.40 to 88.06. Gain score analysis showed slightly greater improvement in the experimental class (37.03) than in the control class (34.66). This study contributes by linking learning media with vocabulary acquisition as a classroom learning process. The findings suggest that teachers should integrate interactive media to support vocabulary learning..
