Abstract

The aim of this research is to determine the process of using the demonstration method in mathematics learning on the area of square and rectangular shapes and improving student learning outcomes on the area of flat shapes through the demonstration method.The type of research used is classroom action research (PTK) which has 2 cycles. Each cycle consists of planning, implementation, observation and reflection. The data collection techniques used were interviews, tests, observation and documentation. The research instrument is a test sheet on student learning outcomes. The subjects of the research were all class IV students for the 2023/2024 academic year, totaling 25 students consisting of 12 male students and 13 female students.The results of the research show that the application of the demonstration method can improve student learning outcomes which achieve a score above 70 with a percentage of complete learning outcomes, pre-cycle 28% with an average score of 56.8, Cycle I 60% with an average score of 68 and Cycle 2 96% with average 81.2. Based on the research, it can be concluded that learning mathematics about the area of square and rectangular shapes by applying the demonstration method can be successful, so it can be used as an alternative solution to improve mathematics learning at UPTD SDN Kesek 1.

Abstract

This study was conducted in response to the low critical thinking skills of fourth-grade students in Integrated Science and Social Studies (IPAS), which were reflected in low learning engagement and achievement scores below the minimum mastery criteria. The study aimed to examine the effect of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model on students’ critical thinking skills in the topic of buying and selling activities at SDN Patereman 1. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental method using a one-group pretest–posttest design was employed. The participants consisted of 29 fourth-grade students selected through saturated sampling. Data were gathered through observation and test instruments, and analyzed using normality testing, paired sample t-test, and N-Gain analysis. The findings reveal that students’ critical thinking skills improved, as shown by the increase in the mean score from 48.45 in the pretest to 72.24 in the posttest. The hypothesis testing resulted in a significance value below 0.05, indicating a statistically significant difference after the implementation of the treatment. Furthermore, the N-Gain score of 0.5764 falls within the moderate category, showing a reasonable level of improvement. Overall, the results indicate that the Problem-Based Learning model has a significant effect on improving students’ critical thinking skills and can be effectively applied in elementary-level IPAS learning.
