CHAPTER III

A. Conclusion
Wordwall is one of the many interactive websites that can be used for distance
learning, one of the facilities provided is a quiz gameshow. Distance learning using
word wall game media can be used as a vehicle, a liaison so that messages conveyed
to students can be conveyed properly. Students become more active and can
overcome boredom due to prolonged learning from home due to the delivery of
learning in the form of games. In addition, teachers and students are also encouraged
to learn to recognize and use information technology in the form of online learning
facilities through wordwalls.

Interesting communication following the learner's style is one of the important


factors for successful learning. Technology today is very important. Even in the
future, but that does not mean as a substitute teacher. So the teacher must continue to
strive so as not to be left behind, to be more advanced, innovative and creative while
still instilling good character values to students in order to realize a golden generation
in the future.
