Abstract

Third-grade students often face difficulties in understanding the abstract and cyclical nature of the water cycle, leading to misconceptions and fragmented knowledge. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of integrating Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Wordwall (WW) in improving students’ conceptual understanding of the water cycle. A quasi-experiment employed in this study. The participants involved 105 third-grade students from one elementary school, divided into three groups: PBL+Wordwall, PBL-only, and a conventional instruction group. Over six sessions, students received instruction aligned with their group’s assigned strategy. The results, based on pretest and posttest comparisons analysed through t-tests and MANCOVA, show that both PBL and PBL+Wordwall outperform conventional teaching; however, PBL+Wordwall did not significantly surpass PBL alone. These findings suggest that PBL is a powerful strategy for teaching scientific concepts and that visual tools like Wordwall may offer added benefits in vocabulary reinforcement and engagement. This research supports the adoption of active learning and digital aids to enhance science instruction in elementary education.

Abstract

This study aims to develop and test the effectiveness of an interactive e-book based on the SQ3R (Survey, Question, Read, Recite, Review) strategy to improve elementary students’ reading comprehension skills. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach adapted from Borg and Gall’s model, consisting of seven stages: potential and problem identification, data collection, product design, expert validation, product revision, limited trials, and field testing. The product’s validity and practicality were evaluated by media experts, content experts, and elementary teachers. The participants involved one classroom teacher and 30 fifth-grade students from a public elementary school in Sleman, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Data were collected using expert validation sheets, student response questionnaires, and reading comprehension tests. The results indicated that the developed e-book was categorized as “very valid” (89.6%), “practical” according to teachers and students, and “effective” in improving reading comprehension, as shown by a significant increase in post-test scores. The findings demonstrate that integrating the SQ3R strategy into an interactive e-book is a valid, practical, and effective medium for enhancing students’ comprehension skills. Future studies are recommended to extend this digital tool into mobile or web-based learning platforms.
