Abstract

The development of critical reading and critical thinking skills is essential in teacher education, particularly for pre-service elementary school teachers who are expected to evaluate information critically and guide students in higher-order literacy practices. The increasing use of Learning Management Systems (LMS) in higher education provides opportunities to support students’ engagement with academic texts. However, limited research has examined how LMS engagement relates to students’ intention to participate in critical reading activities within teacher education contexts. The present study examines the relationship between LMS engagement and pre-service (PPG) students’ intention to engage in critical reading, as measured by the Critical Reading Intention Scale (CRIS), based on the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). A quantitative survey design was employed involving 109 pre-service teacher students from three universities in Indonesia. Data were collected via an online questionnaire that measured LMS usability and critical reading intention. The data were analyzed using non-parametric statistical analysis. The results indicate a statistically significant relationship between LMS engagement and students’ critical reading intention (p < 0.05). These findings elucidate that LMS-supported learning environments may be associated with students’ attitudes, perceived norms, and perceived control regarding critical reading activities. The study highlights the potential role of LMS-based instructional design in supporting critical reading engagement in pre-service teacher education.

Abstract

Background: This community service program aimed to prevent sexual violence and bullying through assertive communication training for elementary school teachers in Maredan Barat Village, Tualang District, Siak Regency. Teachers, as strategic actors in creating a safe school environment, often face limitations in understanding and skills when handling cases of sexual violence and bullying.Aims: To improve teachers' understanding, skills, and attitudes towards sexual violence and bullying in the school environment.Methods: The training, conducted from June to October 2024, was designed to enhance teachers’ understanding, skills, and attitudes by integrating the local Riau Malay culture. The program involved 40 teachers from several schools in the village. The training was carried out in three stages: socialization to provide basic understanding, simulation, and role-play to improve assertive communication skills, and evaluated using pretest and posttest questionnaires.Results: The evaluation results showed significant improvements in all indicators. In preventing sexual violence, the average score for understanding increased from 3.12 to 4.45, assertive communication skills from 1.97 to 4.32, and attitudes toward prevention from 3.23 to 4.47. In preventing bullying, the average understanding score rose from 3.21 to 4.57, communication skills from 2.12 to 4.47, and attitudes from 3.13 to 4.68. These improvements demonstrate the effectiveness of the training in equipping teachers with better assertive communication techniques, strengthening their understanding, and transforming their attitudes to be more proactive and responsible.Conclusion: This program has proven successful in enhancing teachers’ capacity to prevent sexual violence and bullying, making them more prepared and confident in addressing these issues.
