Abstract

This study aims to develop an image card-based learning media using a differentiated learning design to improve the speaking skills of first-grade students at Sekolah Indonesia Riyadh. The research adopted the ADDIE development model, which consists of five stages: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The developed media consists of image cards with various themes supporting speaking skill development, such as recognizing objects, naming colors, and role-playing. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) method with a pretest-posttest design to measure the improvement in students' speaking abilities before and after the intervention. A total of 20 first-grade students participated in the study, consisting of an equal number of boys and girls aged 6–7 years. The development results show that this learning media has a very high validity with a score of 86.66%, which falls under the very valid category based on assessments from media and content experts. The practicality of the media received excellent feedback, with a 100% rating from teachers indicating that it is easy to use and effective in the learning process. The effectiveness of this media was measured by the improvement in pretest and posttest scores, with the average pretest score of 54.7, while the posttest score increased to 85.0, with an N-Gain of 0.80, indicating very effective results. However, the study was limited to a small sample within a single school, which may affect the generalizability of the findings. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the image card-based learning media with a differentiated learning design is proven to be valid, practical, and effective in enhancing the speaking skills of first-grade students at Sekolah Indonesia Riyadh. Therefore, the use of this media can be applied more broadly in other classrooms to support the optimal development of students' speaking skills.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the initial needs in the development of e-book story media "BUCETAR" as a means of learning thematic literacy for elementary school students at Sekolah Indonesia Riyadh. The background of this research is based on the importance of contextual and interesting digital-based learning media innovations to improve students' literacy skills, especially in the context of Indonesian Overseas Schools (SILN). This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of observation, semi-structured interviews, and the distribution of questionnaires to grade 4 students and teachers. The results of the observation show that the learning process is still conventional with the minimal use of digital media. Teachers are aware of the importance of developing story-based media that is in line with the theme of the curriculum and the student experience. The results of the questionnaire showed that the majority of students liked picture stories, were interested in using e-books, and liked adventure topics that were relevant to their lives. The results of interviews and observations reinforce the finding that the learning media used has not been able to foster students' active involvement in the literacy process. Based on this needs analysis, the development of the "BUCETAR" e-book story is directed at the integration of narrative text with interesting illustrations, thematic approaches according to the curriculum, and interactive designs that support active student participation. This study recommends the development of e-book media as an alternative to literacy learning that is adaptive to technological developments and student needs in the SILN environment. In addition, the results of this study are the basis for further development and evaluation of the effectiveness of the media after it is implemented.

Abstract

Digital transformation in the world of education has encouraged the adoption of various technology-based learning media, one of which is e-modules. E-modules are considered to provide a more flexible, interactive, and interesting learning experience for elementary school students. This research aims to examine the trends, development models, effectiveness, and challenges of e-modules through the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, following the PRISMA methodology. A total of 19 scientific articles published between 2018 and 2024 were systematically reviewed using the stages of identification, screening, feasibility selection, and data synthesis. The literature search was conducted using databases such as Scopus, Google Scholar, ERIC, and DOAJ, with keywords including "e-module," "elementary school," "digital learning," and "technology integration." The results of the study show that the majority of e-modules developed use innovative learning approaches such as Problem Based Learning, Project Based Learning, Contextual Teaching and Learning, as well as science and sustainability literacy-based approaches. The analyzed e-modules have high validity (average above 90%), high practicality, and have been proven to be effective in improving learning outcomes, learning motivation, science literacy, critical thinking skills, and student independence. The e-module also integrates various multimedia elements such as videos, narratives, interactive quizzes, and digital simulations that reinforce students' fascination and understanding of the material. However, some of the challenges found include limited digital infrastructure, lack of teacher training in the development and use of e-modules, and limited access to students in certain areas. Therefore, a comprehensive implementation strategy, strong education policy support, and increased digital literacy for educators and students are needed. This study concludes that e-modules have great potential in supporting the digitalization of learning in primary schools, noting that technical and resource challenges must be addressed collaboratively. These findings are expected to be the basis for the development of education policies and learning media innovations in the future.

Abstract

This study aims to profile the ability of fifth-grade elementary school students in understanding the five key intrinsic elements of stories characters, setting, plot, theme, and moral message within the context of the Merdeka Curriculum. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research was conducted at SDN Terik, Krian District, involving 26 students selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and written tests, then analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods. The findings indicate varying levels of comprehension among students, with characterization (identified correctly by 73% of students) being the easiest element to understand, while plot and moral message (understood correctly by only 19% of students) were the most challenging. Factors such as reading interest and the use of audiovisual media significantly influenced students’ understanding. However, limited learning time, lack of diverse teaching methods, and differing literacy levels posed challenges. The study highlights the importance of innovative, multimodal teaching strategies and the integration of contextual learning experiences to improve students’ literacy skills. These findings contribute valuable insights for educators seeking to enhance the effectiveness of language and literature learning in accordance with the principles of the Merdeka Curriculum.

Abstract

This study presents a systematic literature review aiming to explore the integration of ethnomathematics in the teaching of plane geometry as a means to enhance numeracy skills among primary school students. Ethnomathematics, which connects mathematical concepts with local cultural practices, offers a contextual and meaningful learning experience that aligns with students’ everyday lives. The review was conducted by analyzing ten peer-reviewed studies published between 2021 and 2024, sourced from credible academic databases such as Google Scholar, DOAJ, ERIC, and Garuda. The findings indicate that embedding cultural elements into geometry instruction—such as traditional motifs, crafts, and architecture—not only improves students’ conceptual understanding but also promotes critical thinking, collaboration, and motivation to learn. Instructional tools developed using ethnomathematical approaches, including modules, multimedia, animated videos, and augmented reality, were reported to be valid, practical, and effective in classroom implementation. Moreover, this culturally responsive pedagogy supports the development of a more inclusive and identity-affirming mathematics education. The review highlights the pedagogical value of ethnomathematics and recommends its wider adoption in mathematics curricula, teacher training, and educational policy. Future research should focus on experimental designs and cross-cultural implementations to further validate the long-term impact of ethnomathematics on student learning outcomes.

Abstract

Storytelling skills are essential components of oral communication that reflect a student’s ability to convey ideas effectively, creatively, and engagingly. This study aimed to identify the initial profile of storytelling skills among sixth-grade students (n=26) at SDN Ploso V/176 in Surabaya. The research employed a qualitative descriptive design using structured observations as the primary method of data collection. Twenty-six students participated as research subjects. The observation instrument assessed five key indicators: fluency in conveying story content, appropriate sentence intonation, facial expression and body movement, speech articulation, and clarity of voice volume. The findings revealed that, overall, the storytelling skills of the students were categorized as "fair" with an average score of 66. The highest performance was observed in the "voice volume" indicator (score: 73), while the lowest was in "facial expression and body movement" (score: 60). These findings highlight the need for targeted instructional strategies that can enhance nonverbal communication aspects such as expression and body language. Additionally, the study serves as a reference for future research to explore interventions that improve oral literacy skills in primary education. A key limitation of this study is its focus on a single school, which may affect the generalizability of the findings. The study provides valuable insights for educators and policymakers in designing more inclusive and engaging learning environments that foster oral literacy and student confidence.

Abstract

The curriculum changes are intended to have a positive impact on the educational system in Indonesia. Through the Merdeka curriculum, learning focuses on the main materials, character development, and students' skills. One of the skills that requires creativity and high-level thinking skills is writing. Advanced writing skill aims to enable students to express their ideas and feelings in written form systematically and develop their creative ideas more broadly, clearly, and integratively. Various types of text are studied at elementary school by considering linguistic rules. This study aims to 1) analyze advanced writing skills of 5th-grade students, and 2) analyze difficulties faced by 5th-grade students in advanced writing. The research method used a descriptive qualitative approach to analyze students' advanced writing skills. Subjects in this study were 5th-grade students and teachers in Gresik Regency. Moreover, the data collection techniques were tests and interviews. The results of the study showed that 5th-grade students are able to write essays or writings. However, aspects that must be considered include linguistic rules (spelling, sentence structure, capitalization, and punctuation), diction, coherence between sentences, and abilities in developing ideas or concepts based on something that has not been experienced before. It can be concluded that 5th-grade students have writing skills, but writing procedures and linguistic rules still require greater attention, which must be followed up in line with curriculum changes that are adaptive and relevant to current developments.
