Abstract

Developing conceptual and procedural knowledge or skills of learners is ‘part and parcel’ of the roles of educators involved in teaching science and social science subjects. This article aims to espouse numerous educational reforms implemented locally, regionally, and internationally during the past decades, with exemplars and challenges elaborated. The mixed-method approach is selected as a research framework that includes the collection of qualitative data (mainly from documentary analysis, interviews, observation, and open-ended responses) and quantitative data (mainly from survey questionnaires). This article reports mainly qualitative findings that are summarised from mixed-modes of analysis on data collected through systematic review and ‘multiple-case design’, including ‘cross-case and within-case analysis’ on how conceptual and procedural knowledge and skills of learners could be enhanced through the implementation of various technology-integrated project-based programmes incorporating various effective strategies anchored on hybrid approaches in replacement of traditional methods. Case exemplars are illustrated with how these programmes serve as platforms for basic education and foundation courses from basic to advanced learning among lifelong learners. The analysis of a local programme to promote Year 4 students’ (N = 33) primary science learning using the 5E constructivist model revealed that students were mentally engaged in learning science concepts, interacting with new experiences, and able to correct misconceptions with enhanced conceptual and procedural knowledge and skills on the taught topics ‘Scientific Skills, Life Processes of Humans, and Properties of Materials’ as reflected in their increased mean scores of science achievement analysed statistically. The implementation of the ‘Learning Science and Mathematics Together’ (LeSMaT) student-centered regional learning programme that provided a guide for expected project output is also illustrated with an exemplar of how learners’ conceptual and procedural knowledge and skills in ‘environmental education’ were enhanced through the preparation of the project required for this program. The analysis of social science learning involving building foundation knowledge in economics through an international research-based internship programme revealed that students’ conceptual and procedural knowledge and skills in ‘economics’ were enhanced with the input on research methodology and the need to produce a report, which tied in with theories and the experience of their placements in various business settings that provided real-life experience related to economic issues faced during the pandemic. In the end, the significance and implications of the study are discussed with ideas for how to move forward.

Abstract

ABSTRACTThe purpose of this study is to analyze the use of the Simultaneous Multisensory Teaching method (SMT) on improving reading and writing skills of dyslexic students . Students with dyslexia in addition to having difficulty in writing, also generally have difficulty in reading and mentioning a letter, word, and sentence, and often reverse in writing and mentioning letters. One of the methods recommended by International Dyslexia Association (IDA) in improving reading and writing skills of dyslexic students is the Simultaneous Multisensory Teaching (SMT) method. SMT is a special method for students with dyslexia. The learning process goes through special stages to develop students' abilities by optimizing several senses in an integrated manner. The subjects in this study were single participants, namely students with dyslexia with the initials AMJ , who were Grade IV students at SDN 1 Pasirlangkap, Cikidang District, Sukabumi Regency . This research uses an approach qualitative with descriptive method . Data collection techniques using interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis techniques consist of: 1) data reduction, 2) data presentation, and 3) drawing conclusions. The results showed that gradually the students' reading and writing abilities began to improve by using the SMT method . The ability to recognize letters that are often confused has begun to be mastered, both in pronunciation while reading and writing. Similarly, reading and writing words and sentences, there has been a change compared to the initial observations, which tend to have a lot of writing errors. Based on this, it can be concluded that the use of the SMT method can improve the reading and writing skills of dyslexic students.

Abstract

Equibrilliant is a game-board assessment to improve students' conceptual understanding of Chemical equilibrium. This game-based learning teaching material aims to overcome pro-long misunderstandings by teacher's quick feedback and enhance students' motivation through the enjoyment of play-learning. This approach applies the formative assessment to replace conventional assessment which limits the evaluation of students’ progress, contributes to prolonged misconceptions, and creates a stressful situation and low motivation. Analysis of findings through pre-posttest reveals that Equibrilliant gameboard assessment has improved 50% of students’ conceptual achievement and provides high impact assessment with a high mean score of 4.64. Utilizing Equibrilliant is a better way of assessing students’ concepts to prepare matriculation graduates as knowledgeable, innovative, and competitive in the STEM field in the future.

Abstract

Statistical Literacy is needed by students in understanding information and presenting data in various forms of representation. This study aims to develop a mathematics module based on statistical literacy for junior high school students in the context of empowering Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) that is valid, practical, and effective. The research method uses a development research design with ASSURE stages. Twenty students of class VIII A were used as research samples, considering the ease and accessibility in conducting the research. Validity data were obtained through a validation questionnaire assessed by competent experts in their fields. Practicality data were obtained through a student response questionnaire. Effectiveness data were obtained based on the results of the statistical literacy pre-test and post-test. While observation data were used as supporting data to describe the module trial activities in learning. Quantitative data analysis used average values to analyze the results of the validation questionnaire and student responses, as well as the Wilcoxon test to determine the effectiveness of the developed module in learning. The validation results show that the developed module meets the validity criteria and receives positive responses from students and teachers. In addition, the Wilcoxon test results indicate the influence of module use in learning, that supported by the N-Gain test results of 0.59, indicating that the developed learning module is quite effective in improving students' statistical literacy. Although the development results are quite effective, students need to be accustomed to dealing with problems that contain the surrounding context, increase assignments, and integrate strategies, media, and learning models that focus on developing statistical literacy. Thus, the developed module has met the criteria of validity, practicality, and effectiveness. However, the results of the statistical literacy test evaluation indicate limitations in students' abilities to interpret and draw conclusions. This research provides an important contribution in developing relevant, innovative teaching materials, while highlighting crucial aspects for future learning, especially focusing on statistical literacy and contextual-based learning.    Keywords: statistical literacy, MSMEs empowerment, statistical module.
