Abstract
The main objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the Educaplay digital
platform on student vocabulary performance. A quantitative technique was used,
using a pre-experimental design and a one-group pre-test and post-test model. The
participants were tenth-grade students at MAN Kota Tegal during the 2025/2026
academic year. The investigation sample was selected using purposive sampling,
which included 35 students. The vocabulary exam was used to collect data before and
after treatment. The results revealed that the mean score increased from 52.77 in the
pre-test to 64.63 in the post-test. Furthermore, the Paired Sample T-test yielded a
significance level (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000, which was less than 0.05. The results
showed a considerable difference between the pre-test and post-test scores. As a
result, using Educaplay was successful in helping students improve their English
vocabulary proficiency.
