ABSTRACT

Recount texts present a notable challenge for many junior high school students learning English, as students often encounter difficulties in comprehending the complexities of this specific type of writing. This research aims to develop steps in designing worksheets assisted by Minecraft to guide students in composing recount texts. Consequently, this study seeks to provide a structured approach to utilizing the educational potential of Minecraft in the learning process of recount writing. This research and development adapted from Dick and Carey’s framework and the 6D framework of developing gamified systems by Werbach and Hunter. The result of the research showed that the worksheet utilizing Minecraft was strongly valid or could be used without revision, and the score was 91,66%. The researcher suggested the steps in designing the worksheet utilizing Minecraft to guide the students in English writing.
