INTRODUCTION
The era of the industrial revolution 5.0 requires everyone to be more active,
creative, innovative, productive, adaptive, and also competitive. The development of the
industrial revolution era 5.0 certainly has an impact on the world of education (Nastiti &
Ni’mal Abdu, 2020). In the world of education, emphasis is placed on character, morals,
and exemplary education. This is because the knowledge possessed can be replaced by
technology while the application of soft skills and hard skills owned by each student cannot
be replaced by technology. In this case, readiness is needed in terms of competency-based
education, understanding, and utilization of IoT (Internet of Things), the use of virtual or
augmented reality, and the use and utilization of AI (Artificial Intelligence).

This era of the industrial revolution 5.0 makes it easy for students to get the latest
information from anywhere, anywhere, and anytime. The ease of information obtained by
students can affect perspectives, lifestyles, and cultures in the world of education (Astuti
& Rps, 2014). Student access to obtaining or providing the information is relatively fast.
This is based on students' proficiency in using social media such as WhatsApp, Facebook,
Instagram, tik tok, and other social media in receiving and conveying information
(Indriana, 2011).
The use of social and digital media is a unified part of the daily lives of Indonesian
students. Unfortunately, students do not yet understand the benefits of using technology,
especially social media, so social media that is often used by students is often misused. The
purpose of using technology carried out by students is as a medium for receiving and
conveying information. However, the delivery of information carried out by students
through social media usually uses slang or students rarely add standard word knowledge in
Indonesian.
The phenomenon of using slang that is increasingly mushrooming among
millennial students today makes the use of the word standard very low. The word Baku
became a very unfamiliar word to the ears of the students. Not infrequently, when students
know the standard words from the non-standard words that they often say, it makes students
laugh and are not sure of the standard words that are conveyed. Students today are more
familiar with hearing slang words, for example, words that have recently become
phenomenal among the community, especially students, such as lebay, alay, mood, relaxed,
cans, crisp, gils, upset, hoax, kuper, skuy which is the reverse word of yuks and many more.
These words are not found in the Big Indonesian Dictionary (KBBI) because the words
mentioned earlier are not standard.
In learning in schools, especially in Indonesian lessons, teachers do not pay
attention to the mastery of standard words that students have so when asked to speak in
front of the class or in general, they often find languages that do not have Indonesian
language rules. On the other hand, students do not yet have the awareness to increase their
knowledge of the standard word Indonesian. This is because students spend more time
surfing social media and the habit of reading books in addition to knowledge becomes
neglected. Millennial students prefer to read information or status on social media than to
read textbooks or other textbooks.
Learning Indonesian in the classroom only implements according to what is in the
curriculum, the teacher should insert a little time to add Indonesian standard word
knowledge to the students so that when students speak or tell stories in front of the class or
public, they use of Indonesian can be organized properly and correctly. Teachers are now
required to be creative in accommodating student needs and must be sensitive to student
characteristics and psychics. The success of the delivery of the material can be seen from
the model chosen by the teacher. Learning Indonesian has the aim of equipping students to
develop language in addition to aspects of reasoning and memorization so that the
knowledge and information received by students are limited to language and literature
products.
One of the efforts that can be made in Indonesian learning is to use creative
learning, for example using tools or a unique medium in learning. The use of media can
help learning activities in the classroom become more fun and less boring. In addition, the
function of learning media can be a medium for coaching Indonesian. So, not only students
can increase their knowledge of standard words, all residents in school and outside of
school can gain standard word knowledge.
In an observation made by researchers on grade VII students at SMP Negeri 12
Dumai, there were several problems found in learning Indonesian, one of which was the
use of standard words. The problem factor is that students do not understand the benefits
and importance of using the word standard. Almost all students who were asked questions

did not know the standard word of the word "gadget", students only knew the word
"mobile". The word is very often used by students in Indonesia. Students still feel
unfamiliar when they hear the word "gadget" and there are even some students who just
know the word "gadget".
Therefore, this research focuses on a medium. Media can be interpreted as an
intermediary in learning can be in the form of hardware and software. The media can
support in achieving goals in learning. Learning will be interesting with the use of media.
Wheel of names is one of the media that can be used as a learning medium in Indonesian
and can help students in understanding the text material of descriptions, especially standard
and non-standard words in Indonesian (Asyhar, 2012).
RESEARCH METHODS
Based on the problems studied, the design of this research is qualitative research.
According to (Creswell, 2009), qualitative research is those methods of exploring and
understanding meanings that several individuals or groups of people consider to be derived
from social or humanitarian problems. Qualitative methods can be carried out with various
approaches including participatory research, discourse analysis, ethnography, grounded
theory, case studies, phenomenology, and narrative.
The reason researchers use qualitative research as a research method is that
researchers can draw generalizations of what is observed inductively, and abstract theories
about processes, actions, or interactions based on the views of the participants studied
(Moleong, 2013).
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
From the research that has been carried out, it provides the following picture:
The students of SMP Negeri 12 Dumai in the mastery of the standard word Indonesian
is still very low. Students only know the standard words Indonesian that the teacher usually
says or writes in classroom learning. Students don't find out enough about the standard
words in Indonesian. Even though almost all students already have personal devices. It
should be easier for students to find out information about Indonesian. But unfortunately,
the desire of students to increase their knowledge of the standard word Indonesian does not
exist.
The lack of mastery of standard Indonesian words owned by students can have a bad
impact, especially in the field of language skills, namely listening, reading, speaking, and
writing. Students will find it difficult when it comes to writing, especially in formal writing
or scientific papers.
To find out the initial ability to master the standard words Indonesian possessed by
grade VII students of SMP Negeri 12 Dumai, students are given a sheet of paper containing
standard and non-standard words. Then students are asked to put a checkmark (√) to choose
a word that includes standard or non-standard words. An example looks like the table
below:

From the results of these sheets, it is known that the mastery of standard Indonesian
words owned by students is still low. Even though the words used as examples are words
that are familiar to them and they still often say them. But in fact, there are still many
students who are wrong in answering the word.
After knowing the results of mastering the standard words Indonesian from the grade
VII student of SMP Negeri 12 Dumai. Researchers began to use media as a learning aid in
Indonesian especially when learning standard and non-standard words in Indonesian. The
medium used to support learning is the wheel of names.
The working steps for using such media are:
1. Master with the help of google chrome opens wheelofnames.com,
2. The teacher makes a spinner from wheelofnames by entering standard and non-standard
words,
3. Students one by one are asked to play the media through the teacher's laptop which is
broadcast through the projector,
4. After the needle stops at one of the words, the student is asked to answer the word
included in the standard word or non-standard.
Figure 1. Wheel of names Baku and Tak Baku Words
Gradually the teacher will give words that are often encountered (oral or written) by
students in everyday life, be it at school or outside of school on the learning media wheel
of names. The media is indirectly very helpful for teachers in learning Indonesian especially
standard and non-standard words because students can understand the material and also get
the latest information about words outside of learning in class. With the number of words
owned by students, it will be easier for students to write a text essay, be it a fiction text or
a non-fiction text assigned by the teacher in learning Indonesian in class.

Figure 2. The use of a wheel of names in learning
The existence of the media wheel of names in the language of students is very
enthusiastic in playing the media. Students consider the wheel of names of language to be
one of the new games and very educational for students.
With this media, it is hoped that it can help students to increase their knowledge of
Indonesian words. Although students get knowledge of words from slang, with the help of
learning media students can balance input between standard words and slang. So that the
knowledge that adds to the student is not just the latest knowledge of slang.
CONCLUSION
The learning process using the wheel of names media makes for a different but fun
learning atmosphere. Wheel of names became a new game for students. Not just a new
game, wheel of names can also provide education about the word default Indonesian.
Besides being able to be used as a medium in classroom learning, the wheel of names can
also be used as a medium for coaching Indonesian. With the wheel of names of the
language, it can add insight into the standard word Indonesian for all circles, be it students
or the general public.
