Abstract

Learning difficulties may affect elementary school students’ classroom engagement and participation, highlighting the need for adaptive instructional practices. This study aimed to describe the instructional strategies employed by a Grade III teacher to support students experiencing learning difficulties and to explore their learning responses. A qualitative descriptive approach was conducted in one Grade III classroom at SD Alkhairaat Mamboro, Indonesia, involving one teacher and students as the context of observation. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation and analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed that the teacher employed adaptive instructional strategies, including simple and age-appropriate language, classroom management, individualized guidance, instructional media, collaborative group work, interactive questioning, and positive reinforcement through praise and rewards. These strategies were associated with positive learning responses, including greater attention, active participation, willingness to complete learning tasks, and confidence in answering questions. The findings suggest that these practices were observed alongside a supportive classroom environment that encouraged student participation and engagement. Given the qualitative descriptive design, the findings are context-specific and do not establish a causal effect on students’ learning motivation.

Abstract

Critical thinking is an essential competency that should be developed in elementary education to support students in solving problems and making informed decisions. However, students' critical thinking skills in Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) remain relatively low due to the limited use of interactive digital learning media. This study aimed to examine the effect of Canva-based interactive learning media on the critical thinking skills of sixth-grade students at SD Inpres 1 Tondo. A quantitative approach with a pre-experimental method employing a One Group Pretest–Posttest Design was used. The participants consisted of 14 sixth-grade students selected through total sampling. Data were collected using a multiple-choice critical thinking test and analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Paired Sample t-test with SPSS version 25. The findings revealed that the mean score increased from 61.79 on the pretest to 71.79 on the posttest, representing an improvement of 10.00 points. The Paired Sample t-test indicated a statistically significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.001). These findings demonstrate that Canva-based interactive learning media effectively enhance students' critical thinking skills and can serve as an innovative digital learning medium to support more engaging and meaningful IPAS instruction in elementary schools.
