This research uses qualitative with case study. Data collection techniques are through interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis includes identifying patterns, themes, and nuances from interviews and observations. The research results show that several things can be implemented several things can be implemented in developing an independent curriculum for madrasas. First, develop material that stimulates critical thinking by connecting theory with everyday situations relevant to students. Second, project-based activities involve students actively in the learning process, where they receive information passively and participate actively in knowledge creation. Third, critical thinking in a spiritual context encourages students to accept religious teachings passively and question and understand more profound meanings. Fourth, Self-Reflection and Metacognition can strengthen students' understanding of the material studied.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of using plastic straws as concrete manipulatives on first-grade students' addition skills in mathematics at MI An-Nidhom, a rural Islamic elementary school in Indonesia. Addressing the challenge of teaching abstract mathematical concepts to young learners, the research explores an innovative, low-cost, and sustainable pedagogical approach. Employing a mixed-methods design with a one-group pretest-posttest model (N=34), the study measured learning outcomes through standardized tests, classroom observations, and teacher interviews. Results demonstrated significant improvement in mathematical proficiency (t(33)=11.109, p<0.001, d=1.89), with 82% of students successfully transitioning from concrete to abstract understanding. The intervention also yielded environmental benefits, reducing plastic waste by 72% while enhancing students' ecological awareness. These findings contribute to both educational practice and sustainable development goals by demonstrating how locally available materials can effectively support foundational numeracy skills in resource-limited settings.

Abstract

21st century education requires the development of students' full potential, including creativity as one of the soft skills. However, existing learning is still teacher-centered and cognitively oriented, thus limiting students' creativity. Differentiated learning is a responsive approach to the diversity of readiness, interests, and learning styles of students. This research aims to optimize the creativity of students through the application of product differentiation learning at SMPN 1 Cluring. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with the subjects of PAI and Ethics teachers, students, curriculum representatives, Counseling Guidance teachers, and school principals. Data collection techniques include participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data analysis uses data condensation, data presentation, and conclusion drawn, data validity uses triangulation techniques and sources.The results of the study show that the application of product differentiation is able to foster the creativity of students, as seen from the variety of products produced, active participation in discussions, and increased initiative and courage to put forward ideas. Indicators of creativity that develop include critical thinking, emotional sensitivity, talent, and imagination in producing original works.
