Abstract

This study aims to determine the impact of the independent curriculum on 21st century skills in grade IV students of SDN 24 Palu. This study uses a qualitative research approach of phenomenological studies. The subjects in this study are teachers and grade IV students of SDN 24 Palu. The instruments in this study are questionnaires, interviews, observations and documentation. The data collection techniques used were questionnaires, interviews, observations and documentation. Then the collected data is analyzed through the process of data reduction, data presentation and conclusion drawn. The results of the study show that the independent curriculum encourages students to be more active, creative and independent by emphasizing critical thinking, communication, creativity, collaboration, character and citizenship skills so that it has a positive impact on the development of 21st century skills in grade IV students of SDN 24 Palu even though the results of student observation in its application are still low so it needs further improvement. Through various learning methods such as discussions, group assignments, students get used to expressing ideas, making decisions together and working together with their friends. However, the results of teachers' observations on the implementation of the independent curriculum are sufficient so that there is still a need to improve teachers' understanding, learning strategies and support from various parties.

Abstract

This study aims to enhance elementary students’ learning interest in Science and Social Studies (IPAS) through the application of the cooperative learning model, Teams Games Tournament (TGT). The research was conducted as Classroom Action Research (CAR) involving two cycles, each consisting of two meetings. Data were collected using a yes/no learning interest questionnaire and observation sheets measuring both teacher and student activity. The TGT model was implemented through five main stages: class presentation, team study, games, tournaments, and rewards. The results demonstrated a substantial increase in the implementation quality of teaching activities, with teacher activity scores improving from 85.3% in Cycle I to 97.1% in Cycle II, and student activity scores from 82% to 97%. Furthermore, students’ average learning interest rose from 50.8% in the first cycle to 83% in the second. Improvements were also observed across all interest indicators, including attention, enjoyment, curiosity, and participation. These findings indicate that the TGT model effectively supports a student-centered, interactive, and engaging learning environment, fostering emotional involvement and active participation. Therefore, the TGT model is recommended as a promising instructional strategy for increasing learning interest in primary education settings.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of the Team Games Tournament (TGT) cooperative learning model in enhancing cognitive learning outcomes among fifth-grade students at SD Inpres Kayuboko in the IPAS subject. The research was driven by low academic performance, largely due to conventional and uninspired teaching practices. Utilizing a Classroom Action Research (CAR) design, the study was conducted over two cycles, each comprising planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. Twenty students participated as research subjects. Data were gathered through cognitive achievement tests, classroom observations, interviews, and documentation. Results from the first cycle showed a learning mastery rate of 70% with an average score of 70.4. In the second cycle, mastery improved to 85% with an average of 78.65. These findings confirm that the TGT model effectively boosts student motivation, participation, and cognitive achievement in a structured and engaging learning environment. The study recommends integrating TGT into classroom instruction to support better learning outcomes and improve overall educational quality in primary schools.

Abstract

This research aims to develop Augmented Reality (AR)-based learning media for the IPAS subject, focusing on the Plant Body Parts material for fourth-grade students at Lasoani State Elementary School. The background highlights the challenges students face in understanding abstract concepts like plant anatomy using conventional 2D media within the Merdeka Curriculum framework. To address this, the study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach with the ADDIE model, covering the phases of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Data were collected through interviews, observations, expert validations, and user response questionnaires. The developed AR media was validated by media and material experts, achieving high feasibility scores of 86.66% and 83.15%, respectively. Student responses indicated an attractiveness score of 85.60%, while teacher responses showed a practicality score of 94%, both categorized as very valid. These results demonstrate that the AR-based media effectively transforms abstract content into interactive visualizations, increases student engagement, and supports meaningful learning. In conclusion, the developed AR learning media is a valid and practical innovation that can enhance students’ understanding of plant body parts and has the potential for broader application in other abstract topics within the IPAS subject.

Abstract

Low learning outcomes in elementary-level social studies courses frequently arises from instructional approaches dominated by teachers, which restrict pupils from independently exploring and internalizing subject concepts. This condition demands the implementation of more innovative learning models to encourage student participation and understanding. This research aims to examine the impact of the inquiry-based instructional approach on the academic results of 6th grade pupils in social studies at SD Inpres 1 Tanamodindi. The investigation included 26 participants from class VI B, selected through purposive sampling, with evidence gathered via assessment tests and documentation. Findings indicated that student mean scores rose from 45.19 prior to intervention to 72.11 after intervention. Statistical analysis using the t-test produced a significance level of 0.000, below the threshold of 0.05, leading to rejection of H0 and confirmation of Ha. Consequently, it can be inferred that the inquiry learning approach significantly influences academic performance in grade six social studies.

Abstract

This study investigates how the Teams Games Tournament cooperative learning model can improve the learning motivation of fourth grade students in Social Studies at Inpres 1 Birobuli Public Elementary School. The research aims to determine whether combining teamwork, friendly competition, and enjoyable activities can encourage students to participate more actively in the learning process. A quantitative approach with a Quasi Experimental design is applied, where class IVA receives the Teams Games Tournament treatment and class IVB functions as the comparison group. A motivation questionnaire is used to collect data after the learning activities. Before testing the hypothesis, the data are examined through normality and homogeneity tests to ensure statistical requirements are met. The hypothesis is then analyzed using the Paired Sample T Test through SPSS Statistic twenty five. The results show a significance value of zero point zero zero zero, lower than the alpha level of zero point zero five, leading to the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis. These results indicate that the Teams Games Tournament model significantly increases students motivation and creates a more engaging classroom atmosphere.

Abstract

Communication skills are essential competencies that support students’ academic success and social interaction in the learning process. However, field observations indicated that fourth-grade students at SD Inpres 2 Tondo showed low communication skills, particularly in expressing opinions and participating actively in classroom discussions. This study aimed to examine the effect of the Jigsaw cooperative learning model on improving students’ communication skills. The research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group pretest–posttest design. The participants consisted of 38 fourth-grade students divided into an experimental class and a control class. The experimental class was taught using the Jigsaw cooperative learning model, while the control class received conventional instruction. Data were collected through communication skills tests and observation sheets and analyzed using descriptive analysis, normalized gain, and independent sample t-test. The results showed that students taught using the Jigsaw model achieved higher posttest scores and better communication skill performance compared to those taught using conventional methods. These findings indicate that the Jigsaw cooperative learning model is effective in enhancing elementary school students’ communication skills and can be applied as an alternative instructional strategy in language learning.

Abstract

Character education plays an important role in shaping the personalities of elementary school students. This study aims to analyze the role of teachers in shaping the character of fourth-grade students at SDN Ululere. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that teachers play the role of educators, teachers, and coaches in shaping students' character. As educators, teachers instill religious values and responsibility through habitual prayer, exemplary behavior, and routine activities such as class duty. As teachers, teachers integrate character values into learning through group discussions and differentiated learning, emphasizing honesty, cooperation, and responsibility. As coaches, teachers provide personal guidance, routine religious activities, and training in student independence. From this character-building process, four main characters are strengthened, namely religious, honest, independent, and responsible. This study confirms that character building in students requires a collaborative approach between teachers, schools, and parents in a consistent and sustainable manner.
