Abstract

Many pre-service teachers in Teacher Professional Education (PPG) programs lack the competence to develop effective teaching materials aligned with curriculum goals. Understanding by Design (UbD) offers a structured approach to support this development through backward design. This study employed a quantitative research design using purposive sampling to select 116 PPG students as respondents. Data were collected via an online questionnaire distributed through Google Forms. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods. Findings reveal that UbD effectively supports the development of Subject Specific Pedagogy (SSP) through its three core stages: identifying desired learning outcomes, designing appropriate assessments and tasks, and planning targeted learning activities. Respondents demonstrated increased competence in aligning instructional strategies with learning objectives through this framework. The results suggest that UbD provides a practical model for guiding teachers in curriculum-aligned material development. The structured approach helps educators better understand learning goals and translate them into classroom practice. UbD is an effective framework for improving PPG students’ mastery of Subject Specific Pedagogy. It is recommended that teacher training programs integrate UbD principles into their instructional models. Teachers are also encouraged to continuously refine their teaching strategies in line with evolving curriculum demands.

Abstract

The learning process will be effective if supported by learning media that is right on target and based on student needs analysis. LEPAS (Student Exploration Sheet) as a learning media is characterized by integrated activities with traditional games as activities. In addition, LEPAS has the advantage that the activities carried out are able to foster student experimentation but use simple experimental materials so that they are easily implemented by students. Experimental science is a very suitable learning method to be applied in science learning. This research uses the RND method by developing LEPAS. The 4D RND model was chosen as the development model. The research subjects were fourth grade students of SD Al Islam Yogyakarta and their class teachers. The results showed that the LEPAS media that had been developed had received validation by experts with the results of the percentage of material validation of 95%, media 90.66%, language 88.33% with a very valid category. Based on the needs analysis, the results show that the developed media is very suitable for grade IV elementary school because this media accommodates the needs of students, especially in science learning which requires experiment-based activities. LEPAS is declared feasible to use as media in Class IV based on the analysis of student needs to accommodate experimental learning.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the reconstruction of the philosophy of science in the Project-Based Eco-Citizenship learning model in elementary education through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. This study examines 30 selected articles from the Google Scholar, Scopus, and SINTA databases published in 2015–2025. The analysis was conducted using the PRISMA stages and thematic analysis examined from the perspective of the philosophy of science, namely ontological, epistemological, and axiological dimensions. The results of the study indicate that ontologically, students are positioned as active subjects who learn through direct interaction with the environment as the real reality of learning. Epistemologically, knowledge is built through experience, collaboration, and reflection in contextual project activities so that learning becomes more meaningful and applicable. Meanwhile, axiologically, this model plays a role in instilling the values of environmental concern, social responsibility, and sustainability that shape the character of eco-citizens in students. The integration of these three dimensions shows that Project-Based Eco-Citizenship is not only oriented towards cognitive achievement, but also character development and ecological awareness. Thus, this model is relevant to the demands of the Independent Curriculum and the strengthening of 21st-century skills in forming a generation that is critical, collaborative, creative, and cares about the environment.
