Abstract

Science learning in elementary school requires media that can help students understand concepts more realistically. One of the media that can be used is a miniature eruption volcano that can simulate the process of volcanic eruptions in a simple way. This study aims to find out how the use of miniature mountain media erupts in improving the skills and understanding of grade IV elementary school students. The method used in this study is qualitative research with a descriptive approach. Data was obtained through observation during the learning process. The results of the study show that the use of miniature media of erupting mountains is able to increase students' enthusiasm, activeness, and understanding of natural phenomena material. Through simple experimental activities, students can learn directly, discuss with groups, and more easily understand the process of volcanic eruptions. Thus, the miniature media of erupting mountains can be an effective alternative learning media in science science learning in elementary schools.

Abstract

Science instruction in elementary schools often remains teacher-centered, resulting in low student engagement and interest; this is evident in the teaching of plant-related topics to fifth-grade students at SDN Unyur. This study aims to describe the implementation of science instruction using the "Mini Garden Project" medium integrated with the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model, to assess student learning interest following this implementation, and to identify supporting and inhibiting factors. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed. Data were gathered through semi-structured in-depth interviews, non-participant observation, and document analysis involving fifth-grade teachers and students at SDN Unyur. The data were subsequently analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, comprising data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results indicate that instruction was conducted in accordance with the PjBL syntax ranging from defining the fundamental question to evaluating the experience and successfully boosted student learning interest, as evidenced by heightened attention, curiosity, engagement, active participation, and enthusiasm. Supporting factors included school backing, a suitable environment, and the availability of tools and materials, whereas inhibiting factors included time constraints and weather conditions. The study concludes that integrating an environment-based learning medium with the project-based learning model is effective in enhancing elementary students' interest in science learning.
