The result obtained for the media-based pronunciation learning resources was 4.50 on the scale of 5.00 with a very good category, while for the chosen topic in learning pronunciation was 4.55. In terms of cognitive skills achievement, students obtained an average score of 4.35 with a good category. Meanwhile, for the media assessment and the software aspect obtained a score of 4.48, and the learning and cognitive aspect with a score of 4.50.
