Abstract

This study aimed to improve the numeracy literacy and learning outcomes of fifth-grade students at Sekolah Indonesia Kota Kinabalu (SIKK) in volume unit conversions through the innovative Demonic method, which combines Demonstration and Mnemonic techniques. Employing Classroom Action Research (CAR), the study was conducted in two cycles with 15 students during the 2023/2024 academic year. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and pre- and post-tests. Results showed a significant increase in the average test score from 64.04 in Cycle I to 90.57 in Cycle II, with the percentage of students achieving the Minimum Completion Criteria rising from 38% to 90%. The integration of Mnemonic strategies enhanced memory retention, while Demonstration methods supported active participation and hands-on learning. The study concludes that the Demonic method effectively addresses learning gaps and fosters better comprehension of volume unit conversions.

Abstract

Islamic Education plays a crucial role in shaping students' religious and moral character from an early age. However, the implementation and learning outcomes of Islamic Education at the elementary school level often fall short of expectations in terms of academic achievement and the application of religious values in daily life. This study aims to analyze the influence of teaching strategies on learning outcomes in Islamic education. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed. The study participants consisted of fourth-grade students selected through purposive sampling based on criteria relevant to the research focus. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed thematically using NVivo 10 software. The findings reveal that student-centered learning strategies significantly contribute to improving learning outcomes. The Student Team Achievement Division strategy, which engages students in heterogeneous group learning, fostered collaboration, interaction, and deeper conceptual understanding. This strategy also accommodates diverse learning styles, including visual, auditory, and kinesthetic preferences. These findings offer critical insights into developing innovative teaching strategies to enhance the quality of Islamic Education instruction. Furthermore, this study provides a foundation for future research in different contexts to enrich value-based and collaborative learning approaches.

This research aims to explore the effectiveness of the Picture and Picture method in learning Indonesian in class V elementary school. This method is expected to increase students' interest and motivation in learning languages, as well as facilitate understanding of concepts in a more creative and fun way. Through an interactive visual approach, students are invited to collaborate in depicting stories and ideas using pictures, so that the learning process becomes more interesting. The type of research used is Classroom Action Research with data collection through observation, tests and documentation which are analyzed descriptively. The results of the research were marked by the achievement of indicators of success in classroom action research and an increase in the average score of students in Cycle I of Meeting II of 70.53, increasing to 72.11 in Cycle II of Meeting I and increasing again to 81.32 in cycle II Meeting II. The percentage of completion of Indonesian language learning results in Cycle I, Meeting I was 63.16%, increased in Cycle II, Meeting I by 78.95%, and increased again by 94.74% in Cycle II, Meeting II. It is hoped that these findings can make a positive contribution to the development of language learning methods in elementary schools.
