Planning of the Title
The Effectiveness Of Using Augmented Reality Application To Enrich
Vocabulary Building At Seven Grader Students Of Mts N 2 Kendal In The
Academic Year Of 2018/2019
Background of Study
English is as an international language used as a tool for communication in
daily life and in academics, functioned as a first, second, or foreign language.
As international language, people are demanded to master English, because
most people all over the world communicate each other in English. English is
useful for establishing and maintaining the relationship with the people.
Furthermore, the people have to be ready to face global competition in
understanding and developing the scientific and technological knowledge in
this modern era.
As we know that in the modern era this cannot be separated from
technology. Technology can enhance literacy development, impact language
acquisition, provide greater access to information, support learning, and
motivate students. This project purposes a conceptual for exploring the
viewpoint of a new form of Virtual Reality (VR) application called
Augmented Reality (AR) technology in education field. AR sets itself
separately from VR by allowing mixing of 3D virtual objects into real
environment in real time thus allowing student to communicate with their
physical environment and also making learning more interesting. Overall
project has less difference in term of materials of learning, changes will be
made in term of performances and how represent the materials in Augmented
Reality such as adding multimedia elements and sound. This project will
benefits teachers as well as students. It provides the teachers teaching supports
and changes the learning session to be more interactive, attractive and
effective. It will assist students in building their imaginative thinking,
improving their understanding, and changing the model of learning.
Literature Review
Argumented Reality
Augmented reality technology has its roots in the field of computer science
interface research. Chen (2006) described AR as a technology that integrates
three-dimensional virtual objects with the outside world, allowing the user to
simultaneously interact with virtual objects and with reality. While,Yuen,
Yaoyuneyong, and Johnson (2011) identified AR as a form of technology that
enhances the real world through content produced by the computer. AR
technology enables the seamless addition of digital content to the user’s
perception of the real world. Two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes
can be added in addition to audio, video, animation, and/or text. These
enhancements work to expand individual knowledge and understanding of
what is happening around them.
The Importance of Argumented Reality in Education
AR has already begun to help students learn more efficiently as well as
increase their knowledge retention (Billinghurst&Dunser, 2012). However,
before AR becomes mainstream in education, like desktops, laptops, tablets,
and even cell phones have become, special consideration must be taken into
account on the usability, cost, power usage, visual appearance and the like, in
order for content AR simulations activities to become part of the regular
academic curriculum (Van Krevelen&Poelman, 2010). AR has proved to be an
engaging way for students to participate in their learning. This new technology
allows the learning to be student-centered and create opportunities for
collaboration that fosters a deeper understanding of the content. AR is on the
way to becoming an important part of education, and its use will continue to
grow.
Vocabulary
Vocabulary, as one of the knowledge areas in language, plays a great role for
learners in acquiring a language (Cameron, 2001). Harmon, Wood, &Keser,
(2009) as well as Linse (2005) statethat learners’ vocabulary development is
an important aspect of their language development.
The importance of learning Vocabulary
Vocabulary knowledge is often viewed as a critical tool for second language
learners because a limited vocabulary in a second language impedes successful
communication.
The importance of vocabulary is demonstrateddaily in and out the school. In
classroom, the achieving students possess the most sufficient vocabulary.
Researchers such asLaufer and Nation (1999), Maximo (2000), Read (2000),
Gu (2003),Marion (2008) and Nation (2011) and others have realised that the
acquisition of vocabulary is essential for successful second language use and
plays an important role in the formation of complete spoken and written texts.
In English as a second language (ESL) and English as a foreign language
(EFL) learning vocabulary items plays a vital role in all language skills (i.e.
listening, speaking, reading, and writing (Nation,2011).
Research Questions

Hypothesis of the Research

The hypothesis of the research is as follows:
Ho : Using augmented reality doesn’t affect the students ability in enrich
vocabulary at seventh grade students of MTS N 2 Kendal.( Control
Class)
Ha : Using augmented reality application significantly affects the students in
enrich vocabulary at seventh grade students of MTS N 2 Kendal. (
Experimental Class)
A. Data Analysis Technique
The data analysis method that use in this research is quantitative analysis.
Analysis of the data is use to determine the use of augmented reality in enrich
student’s vocabulary, as for the step is as follow.
1. Descriptive Analysis
To analyze the data of this research, researcher used the statistical
analysis techniques in calculating the value and quantity by giving an
assessment of the answers to the questionnaire that has been distributed
to the respondents, where each item is given alternative of answers
with score that is unequal.
a.) For an alternative "Strongly agree" answer was given a score of 4
b.) For an alternative answer "Agree" was given a score of 3
c.) For alternative "less agree" answers was given a score of 2
d.) For an alternative "Disagree" answer was given a score of 1
As for the students’ comprehension of vocabulary by using
augmented realityfor the correct answer each column got 1 point. the
score as follow.
 For the correct answer is “4” columns get 4 point
 For the correct answer is “3” columns get 3 point
 For the correct answer is “2” columns get 2 point
 For the correct answer is “1” column get 1 point
Next this score made in the tables form, then serve as the basic for
 calculating statistics in the next step. Research Instrument test includes
two things, as follow.
a. Validity of Test Instrument
The valid nature is shown by the high validity of a test result
.An Invalid tool will provide misinformation about the subject state or
individuals subject to the test. If the information is wrong used as a
basis for consideration in making a decision, then the decision is
certainly not a right decision. To determine the validity of the
instrument the researcher is use the product moment correlation
formula is:1
𝑁 (∑ 𝑋𝑌)−(∑ 𝑋) (∑ 𝑌)
rxy =
√[𝑁 ∑ 𝑋 2 −(∑ 𝑋)2 ][𝑁 ∑ 𝑌 2 −(∑ 𝑌)2

rxy = Coefficient Correlation Between X and Y

N = Number of Cases
∑ 𝑋𝑌 = Total Score X and score Y
∑𝑋 = Total Scorer X
∑𝑌 = Total score Y2
In this research not all of instrument is valid. To get good results in
instrument validation, researchers is use the principle of representation
which means to represent. It means that all instrument is valid has
represented another item of invalid instrument.
Validity test is perform using the person product moment with
tools SPSS program version 16.0 with guidance: If r arithmetic> r table
then the item is considered valid and conversely, If r arithmetic <r
table Then the item is said to be invalid.
b. Reliability of Test Instrument
To calculate the reliability of the instrument uses the alpha formula.3
𝑘 Σ𝑆𝑖
𝑟11 = ( ) (1 − )
𝑘−1 𝑆𝑡
Explanation:
𝑟11 : index reliability 1: constant numeral

Then continue determining qualification and interval percentage.
The score was put in the table of score each the data collection. Then,
interval and the quality score in variable are found in this step:
a. Finding out the highest score (H) and the lowest (L)
b. Interval Total (K)
K = 1+3.3 log N4
c. Range
R =H-L+1
R = Range
H = Highest score
L = Lowest score5
d. Interval Class (i)
