Abstract

Reading comprehension is a fundamental skill that enables elementary school students to understand information, construct meaning from texts, and achieve success in various learning areas. Despite its importance, students often display different levels of reading comprehension due to variations in learning readiness, interests, and abilities. This study aimed to investigate the effect of differentiated instruction on the reading comprehension ability of third-grade students at SD Inpres 8 Mamboro. A quantitative approach with a one-group pretest–posttest design was employed. The sample consisted of 30 third-grade students selected through saturated sampling. Data were collected using a validated multiple-choice reading comprehension test, with a Cronbach’s Alpha reliability coefficient of 0.840, indicating high reliability. Descriptive analysis showed that the mean score increased from 73.70 in the pretest to 97.04 in the posttest, demonstrating substantial improvement. Since the data were not normally distributed, the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test was applied. The results indicated a significance value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), confirming a significant improvement in students’ reading comprehension after the implementation of differentiated instruction. These findings indicate that differentiated instruction effectively accommodates diverse learning needs, enhances student engagement, and improves reading comprehension skills, making it a valuable instructional approach for elementary school education.

Abstract

This study examined the effect of animated video media on the learning outcomes of third-grade elementary school students in the Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) subject at SD Negeri Model Terpadu Madani. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design was employed. The participants were 30 third-grade students selected through saturated sampling. Data were collected using a validated and reliable multiple-choice achievement test administered before and after the implementation of animated video-based instruction on the topic Various Landscapes in Indonesia. Data analysis included descriptive statistics, the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, and the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The results showed an improvement in students’ learning outcomes after the intervention, with a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest scores. The findings indicate that animated video media effectively enhanced students’ understanding of the learning material. By integrating visual and auditory elements, the media increased students’ engagement, supported conceptual understanding, and encouraged active classroom participation. Therefore, animated video media can be considered an effective instructional alternative for improving elementary school students’ learning outcomes in IPAS. Future research with more rigorous experimental designs and larger sample sizes is recommended to strengthen the generalizability of these findings.

Abstract

Low student learning outcomes in Pancasila Education remain a challenge in elementary schools due to learning processes that have not fully accommodated differences in students’ readiness, interests, and learning profiles. Preliminary observations conducted in Grade IV of SD Inpres 3 Talise revealed that 18 out of 31 students had not achieved the Minimum Learning Mastery Criteria (KKM). Therefore, an instructional approach that addresses diverse learning needs is required. This study aimed to determine the effect of the differentiated instruction approach on students’ learning outcomes in Pancasila Education. The study employed a quantitative approach using a pre-experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 31 Grade IV students selected through a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected using multiple-choice pretest and posttest instruments and analyzed through validity, reliability, and normality tests, followed by the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test using SPSS version 25. The findings showed a substantial improvement in students’ learning outcomes, with the average score increasing from 54.42 on the pretest to 89.48 on the posttest. The hypothesis test yielded a significance value of <0.001 (<0.05), indicating that the differentiated instruction approach had a significant positive effect on students’ learning outcomes in Pancasila Education.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effect of the Problem-Based Learning model on the critical thinking skills of fourth grade students in IPAS learning at SDN Lasoani. The study employed a quantitative approach using a pre-experimental method with a one-group pretest and posttest design. The sample consisted of 26 fourth grade students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using essay tests developed based on Ennis’s critical thinking indicators and analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test. The results showed that the mean score increased from 61.15 on the pretest to 82.31 on the posttest. Improvements were observed across all critical thinking indicators, with the highest increase found in the drawing conclusions indicator. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test yielded a significance value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores. These findings demonstrate that the Problem-Based Learning model effectively improves students’ critical thinking skills through contextual problem-solving, investigation, discussion, and reflection activities. Therefore, PBL can be considered an effective instructional approach for enhancing critical thinking skills in IPAS learning within the context of the Merdeka Curriculum.
