“…Reduction from distraction born from multitasking and other external distraction can also be reduced, an effective strategy, especially during remote learning where students encounter various distractions at home, such as multimedia platforms, that teachers cannot fully control; thus, practising the Pomodoro technique where students are trained to focus their mind in learning in its outmost, most efficient time range, ensuring all information will not be wasted (Zahariades, 2015;Lau, 2017;Heys, 2020). Additionally, the technique can be seen as effective in an online remote setup since, during the experimentation, students are at home and synchronously attending class; it has been observed that students can focus more as they have been instructed and are not exhausted due to the five-minute brain break every chunk scattered across the entire one-hour session, it has been described that learner that is digital natives in some debates can easily be distracted and urged to multitask but were found struggling while doing it decreasing effectiveness of learning but due to using Pomodoro technique were able to concentrate better, which student perceived as a factor for increased learning (Usman, 2020;Costales et al, 2021). Moreover, randomized individual interviews in the PEC resulted in the following supporting evidence of the technique's effectiveness.…”

The Pomodoro technique is a timed-based strategy used in fighting procrastination and found to increase academic performance. However, its effect on academic learning in a synchronous remote learning modality has yet to be investigated. The study used a mixed triangulation semi-experimental design using a whole sample (N=46), following all ethical equivalence procedures. The genetics concept mastery of the students was tested using a researcher-made test. ANCOVA results revealed that students taught using Pomodoro yielded significantly better concept mastery in genetics than the lecture method. This study contributes to the evaluation of one science teaching strategy compatible with remote learning modality.

“…She broke down her time into 25 minutes working on the task and followed by 5 minutes resting, the the cycle repeated. This way, she could manage better on her task, time, as well as energy (Costales et al, 2021). She used a kitchen timer in the shape of a tomato with time unit measurement around it.…”

This study aimed at finding out students’ state of motivation, engagement, and time management when Pomodoro teaching technique is implemented in ZOOM-based synchronous classroom. This study is naturally qualitative as it investigates the data from students’ during online learning as individual experiences. There were 53 freshman students from various majors involved in this study who had to attend ZOOM classroom for General English Course from August to December 2021. Ten meetings with the implementation of Pomodoro were carried out. In carrying out Pomodoro technique, the students were given break-time for 5 minutes in every 25-minute learning session. Afterwards, the students should answer the questionnaire consisting of 30 statements asking about motivation, engagement, and time management. Once the data collected, they were analyzed using Interactive Analysis (data reduction, data display, and data verification). The results uncover that, regarding motivation, 33 students had positively-oriented motivation; then in term of learning engagement, 40 students were actively engaged with online learning activities given; and concerning time management, 32 students had good time management. This result apparently implies thatnon-physical meeting—which lecturers probably presume that less stress is employed—demands regular break as well. Thence students can still learn efficiently and effectively.

“…Pomodoro strategies are a way for students to research intensively when taking breaks in between. The Pomodoro Technique establishes clear boundaries between work and rest, allowing us to complete tasks within a fixed amount of time (Costales, 2021).…”

This research was conducted by the aim to investigate the effectiveness of Podomoro technique in teaching descriptive text at junior high school at Sidoarjo. The design of this quasi-experimental type was pre-test and post-test non-equivalent control group design. The results of the data reliability test showed that the research instrument was reliable because the Cronbach's alpha value was 0.653 and more than 0.6. Furthermore, it showed the experiment group pretest score was 77.20, control group was 79.00. The experimental group's mean was frequently lower than the control group. The experimental group’s mean post-test score was 87.40, whereas the control group was 79.20. The experimental group’s post-test mean was higher than the control group. The researcher next calculated the mean of the experimental and control groups by t-test (paired sample test) to see if the scores before and after the treatment were significant. It indicated that the pomodoro technique was beneficial in assisting the students in improving their writing skills.
