Abstract
This study aimed to assess the impact of utilizing cartoon movies as a learning medium in teaching monologue to enhance speaking abilities among junior high school students. Employing a pretest-treatment-posttest design within a pre-experimental study model, the research focused on a classroom using the cartoon movie "Ponyo" alongside the conventional program-based teaching method. The interactive and culturally rich Japanese cartoon with a theme centered on teen imagination was applied in the treatment, involving 29 students from class B. The results, based on monologue technique assessments, demonstrated favorable opinions from students regarding the cartoon movie medium. However, while the findings indicated an improvement in speaking abilities, the effect was not statistically significant. This study provides insights into the potential of cartoon movies as an engaging educational tool and suggests avenues for further research and instructional refinement.
