Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Science Storming learning model in improving science literacy among elementary school students. The study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design (nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest). The research subjects consisted of fifth-grade students divided into an experimental group (n=22) and a control group (n=16). The instrument used was a science literacy test covering the ability to understand changes in the state of matter, the relationship between temperature and changes in state, and the interpretation of scientific phenomena. Data analysis utilized descriptive statistics, normality tests, paired-sample t-tests, and independent-sample t-tests. Results showed a pretest mean of 59.69 for the control group and 60.00 for the experimental group, while posttest scores increased to 67.64 (control) and 85.64 (experimental). The paired t-test for the experimental group showed a significant difference (mean difference = −25.636; p < 0.05). These findings indicate that Science Storming is effective in improving science literacy through the exploration of ideas and scientific discussions that foster a deeper and more contextual conceptual understanding.

Abstract

This study aims to describe teachers’ experiences in using digital media to enhance elementary students’ learning enthusiasm. A descriptive qualitative approach was applied with data collected through in-depth interviews, direct observations, and documentation. Informants were selected purposively, focusing on teachers who have direct experience in integrating digital media in the classroom. Data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that digital media such as videos, interactive animations, and educational applications effectively attract students’ attention, increase active participation, and strengthen conceptual understanding. However, challenges such as limited facilities, unstable internet access, and varying levels of teachers’ technological competence remain obstacles. Teachers’ creativity and pedagogical reflection are key factors in the successful integration of technology. This research emphasizes the importance of enhancing teachers’ digital competence to create innovative, engaging, and adaptive learning in the digital era.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of classroom teacher strategies and the use of instructional media in shaping students’ disciplinary character through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach. Literature sources were obtained from Google Scholar, ResearchGate, and the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), focusing on publications from 2020 to 2025. The findings reveal that teaching strategies involving exemplary behavior, habituation, supervision, and the implementation of reward and punishment systems are effective in fostering students’ discipline. The effectiveness of these strategies is further enhanced when integrated with engaging and contextual learning media such as educational videos, animations, and interactive digital tools. The synergy between teaching strategies and learning media strengthens the internalization of discipline values through meaningful learning experiences. However, research gaps were identified, including the limited number of empirical studies examining the synergistic relationship between teacher strategies and learning media, as well as the lack of longitudinal studies assessing long-term impacts. Furthermore, few studies have explored the integration of emerging technologies such as gamification and augmented reality in character education. Therefore, it is essential to develop an integrative learning model based on classroom teacher strategies and interactive digital media to reinforce students’ disciplinary character, contributing both theoretically to character education and practically to promoting a sustainable culture of discipline in elementary schools.
