Abstract


Student motivation and learning outcomes in Arabic language learning require interactive media that support vocabulary practice, peer interaction, and active classroom engagement. This study developed Mumtaza Card, an Index Card Match-based card medium, for Tamrin Lughoh material among Grade VII students at SMP MBS Sleman Yogyakarta.This research used a Research and Development approach with the ADDIE model: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The product was validated by media and subject matter experts and tested through classroom implementation. The effectiveness test involved 68 Grade VII students divided into experimental and control classes. Data were collected through expert validation sheets, student response questionnaires, observation, motivation questionnaires, and Arabic learning outcome tests. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, assumption tests, MANOVA, and N-Gain.Expert validation showed that Mumtaza Card was highly feasible, with media expert validation of 93% and subject matter expert validation of 92%. Student responses indicated very high practicality, with an average score of 92.59%. MANOVA results showed a significant effect of the media on students’ motivation and learning outcomes, with p < .001. The N-Gain score of 0.82 indicated high learning improvement.The findings suggest that Mumtaza Card is feasible, practical, and effective for supporting Arabic language learning. The card-based matching activity encourages active participation, repeated vocabulary practice, and peer interaction. This media can be used as an alternative instructional tool for improving motivation and learning outcomes in Arabic classes.
