Abstract

This research investigates the teacher’s role in music education for fifth-grade students at SD Islam Alhidayah Besusu. Recognizing that music learning at the elementary level is essential for developing students’ cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects, the study focuses on how teachers act as facilitators, classroom managers, motivators, supervisors, and demonstrators. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation involving a classroom teacher and students. Findings reveal that while the teacher has performed well as a demonstrator and class manager, several challenges persist, including limited musical instruments and the teacher’s lack of formal training in music education. Observations and student questionnaires indicate that students generally perceive the teacher’s efforts positively, especially in creating a conducive learning atmosphere and providing clear demonstrations. Statistical results from the questionnaires show that 62.5% of students state the teacher always gives clear examples before practice, and 50% feel inspired by musical works shown in class. In conclusion, despite facing resource constraints, the teacher’s proactive role significantly supports the effectiveness of music learning. It is recommended that schools provide more comprehensive training and facilities to empower teachers in delivering high-quality music education in primary schools.

Learning motivation is an important factor that influences student success, especially in the subject of Arts, Culture and Crafts (SBdP) which requires creativity. This study aims to describe the role of teachers in improving the learning motivation of fourth grade students of SDN 1 Tanantovea in the subject of SBdP. The method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, documentation, and questionnaires. The results of the study showed that teachers act as facilitators, learning managers, motivators, guides, and demonstrators. Based on the results of the questionnaire, 53.3% of students strongly agreed and 46.7% agreed that teachers make SBdP learning more enjoyable. As many as 60% of students agreed that teachers are always ready to guide when students experience difficulties. teachers use a variety of learning media, provide motivation, individual guidance, and deliver materials in an interesting way. With the active and creative involvement of teachers, the SBdP learning process becomes more meaningful and is able to foster student learning motivation optimally. This study concludes that the role of teachers is very significant in fostering students' interest in learning so that it can improve learning outcomes in fourth grade of SDN 1 Tanantovea.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of Wordwall interactive media on learning outcomes in Arts, Culture, and Crafts (SBdP) among third-grade elementary students. A pre-experimental design with one-group pretest-posttest was employed, involving 25 students at SD Inpres 1 Kawatuna, Palu, Indonesia, during the 2024/2025 academic year. The intervention consisted of three instructional sessions implementing Wordwall-based activities focused on decorative drawing concepts. Data were collected through validated achievement tests (Cronbach's Alpha = 0.784), observation checklists, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. Statistical analyses using SPSS 25 included descriptive statistics, Shapiro-Wilk normality tests, paired-samples t-tests, and normalized gain calculations. Results demonstrated significant improvement from pretest (M = 54.74, SD = 14.04) to posttest (M = 84.21, SD = 11.88), with t(24) = -11.705, p < .001. The mean N-gain score of 0.826 (82.59%) indicated high learning effectiveness according to Hake's classification. These findings suggest that Wordwall significantly enhances student engagement, motivation, and achievement in arts education. However, the single-group design limits causal inferences, as observed improvements may reflect multiple factors including novelty effects and teacher enthusiasm. Future research should employ randomized controlled trials, longitudinal designs, and comparative studies across diverse contexts to establish more robust evidence. Despite methodological limitations, this study contributes valuable preliminary evidence supporting interactive digital media integration in elementary arts and culture education.
