Abstract

The research is based on the need for innovation in learning evaluation, considering that conventional methods such as written exams are still predominantly used and considered less interesting by students. Baamboozle, as a web-based game platform, was chosen because it has the potential to increase student engagement, motivation, and participation through gamification mechanisms. This study aims to describe the integration of Baamboozle educational games in the evaluation of Indonesian language learning in procedural text material at the senior high school level. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive design. The location of the study was SMK Muhammadiyah 2 Ponorogo with 28 tenth-grade students as subjects. Data were obtained through observation, documentation in the form of screenshots of evaluation activities, and open-ended questionnaires to explore students' experiences and perceptions. Data analysis used Braun & Clarke's Reflexive Thematic Analysis (TA) model, which included data familiarization, coding, theme search and review, and report writing. The results of the study show that the use of Baamboozle can create a more interactive and enjoyable evaluation. Students showed high enthusiasm and increased motivation thanks to the competitive element, and positive group cooperation was created. However, several technical challenges were encountered, such as unstable internet connections. Overall, Baamboozle proved to be an effective innovative assessment tool that meets the learning needs of the digital age, particularly in increasing student engagement and learning experiences with procedural text material
