Maria Fransisca Andanti  \n1STAB Nalanda , Jakarta-Indonesia 2STIAB Smaratungga, Boyalali-Indonesia  \nAbstract  \nThe problem of mastering English vocabulary is not only a problem for non-English undergraduate students, but also for non-English undergraduate teachers. There are many ways to improve English vocabulary mastery, including English games. The English game used in this research is scrabble. Scrabble is a medium or tool that is expected to improve students' English vocabulary skills. This study employed the Classroom Action Research model which was conducted at STAB Nalanda, Jakarta. The samples used were 27 semester 2 students at STAB Nalanda, and this Classroom Action Research model followed the Stringer model, namely Look, Think, Act which was carried out in two cycles. The research instruments used in this study were interviews, observations, documentation studies, questionnaires, and test questions. This study shows that the use of scrabble has a positive effect on improving students’ English vocabulary with a significant increase from the second test compared to the first test of 184.53% . The assessment criteria are based on the number of words successfully written, making sentences, determining the right answer based on the questions given, determining synonyms, and differentiating word categories based on the context. The results of interviews and questionnaires with 20 students showed that 100% of students were interested in increasing their English vocabulay and 70% attempted to increase their vocabulary. However, increasing the number of English vocabulary still needs to be done continuously through scrabble games because the demand for vocabulary mastery is still very high. The results of this study show that scrabble can be a superior reference for English teachers as a medium for teaching vocabulary in their classes.  \nKeywords;  \nScrabble, Vocabulary Mastery English  \nEthical Lingua  \nVol. X10 No. 2 , 2023 ISSN 2355-3448 (Print)  \nISSN 2540-9190 (Online)  \nCorresponding Email  \nFerdy Anthonius[ferdyanthonius@nalanda.ac](ferdyanthonius@nalanda.ac).id  \nArticle’s History  \nSubmitted 5 march 2023 Revised 23 March 2023 Accepted 20 June 2023  \nDOI  \n10.30605/25409190.568  \nCopyright © 2022  \nThe Author(s)  \nThis article is licensed under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 License  \nUsing Scrabble to Improve the English Vocabulary Mastery of Non-English Undergraduate Students .  \nIntroduction  \nEnglish is used by almost the entire population of the world. There are estimates that around 700 to 750 million non-native English speakers speak this language. This language is also used in various fields of life and even Crystal (2003) and Graddol (2006) state that English is the world's lingua franca. Therefore, in Indonesia, English is a compulsory subject that is taught at the secondary education level. At the higher education level, English is one of the compulsory subjects taught. In fact, several universities in Indonesia require students to show official proof of mastery of English as a graduation requirement.  \nAs one of the languages most spoken by humans in the world, English has common components that are owned by languages in general, including structure, vocabulary, pronunciation, etc. Vocabulary or vocabulary is an important part of supporting mastery of English itself (Salawazo, et al, 2020) . Vocabulary provides a basis for speakers of languages to be able to compose and understand sentences and supports producing skills in the form of speaking and writing and comprehension skills in the form of listening and reading (Nin & Dhamotharan, 2019) .  \nSeveral studies have shown the importance of vocabulary in mastering English so that some teachers feel the need to formulate certain strategies to help students master this component. Nin & Dhamotharan (2019), for example, used a vocabulary journal approach ","cbCaikEJP6HxCm55","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikEJP6HxCm55","pdf",259656,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Global Role of English and Vocabulary Importance\n## Prior Research on Vocabulary Improvement Media\n## Context and Problem Identification at STAB Nalanda","[{\"question\":\"What method and research design were used to study Scrabble’s impact?\",\"answer\":\"The study used Classroom Action Research conducted at STAB Nalanda, Jakarta, following the Stringer model with the Look, Think, Act steps across two cycles.\"},{\"question\":\"How was vocabulary mastery measured in the study?\",\"answer\":\"Assessment criteria included the number of words successfully written, making sentences, selecting correct answers, finding synonyms, and determining word categories based on context.\"},{\"question\":\"What were the main results of using Scrabble for vocabulary mastery?\",\"answer\":\"Scrabble showed a positive effect, with a significant increase of 184.53% from the first test to the second test, and interview/questionnaire results indicated strong student interest.\"}]","Using Scrabble to Improve the English Vocabulary Mastery of Non-English Undergraduate Students | PDF",1790603691,25]
