To increase efficiency, productivity and wider access to information in teaching and learning activities, the use of technology in the learning process is currently a top priority. However, problems arise when schools lack sufficient technological devices to support technology-based learning. Therefore, there is a need for innovation in creating appropriate and useful learning media. The use of video-based learning media combined with a digital story approach is an alternative to overcome this problem. The question now is whether this learning method is successful in increasing students' interest and knowledge of arts and culture? What learning methods are used to teach using story-based digital media? This research was conducted at MTS Misbahul Khair. Data was collected through questionnaires and observations. The study results show: 1) Digital video-based learning design has been used well. 2) The questionnaire shows that this media is effective; 80% of students say that video-based digital stories increase their interest, focus and understanding. However, there are several obstacles, such as limited specifications for students' digital devices and the need for quite large storage space and internet quota.

Foreign language learning anxiety is a prevalent emotional phenomenon among English major students that significantly impacts their learning effectiveness and motivation. This study comprehensively examines the definition, classification, causes, and complex effects of foreign language learning anxiety from a theoretical perspective. Through analyzing the interplay of personal factors (such as self-esteem, learning styles, learning motivation) and environmental factors (such as teaching methods, classroom atmosphere, test pressure, cultural differences), it reveals the multidimensional nature of foreign language learning anxiety. The research indicates that this anxiety not only reduces learners' motivation and efficiency but also interferes with their cognitive processes, affects the development of speaking and listening skills, and even negatively impacts their physical and mental health. To address this issue, based on the Affective Filter Hypothesis, Humanistic Psychology, Constructivist Learning Theory, and Social Interaction Theory, this study proposes educational intervention strategies, including optimizing curriculum design, improving teaching evaluation systems, establishing psychological counseling mechanisms, and strengthening the emotional support function of teachers. These strategies aim to create a positive, interactive learning environment to help students overcome anxiety and enhance learning outcomes.
