Abstract

Teaching English as a Foreign Language (EFL) across cultures presents unique challenges, especially when Indonesian pre-service teachers instruct Thai students who face linguistic and cultural barriers in speaking. Storytelling is recognized as an innovative strategy to enhance fluency, vocabulary, and confidence in communication. This study aims to examine the methodological strategies, barriers, and innovations applied by Indonesian pre-service teachers during the International Teaching Practice Program at Thammasat Wittaya School. Using a descriptive qualitative design, data were collected through interviews, classroom observations, and documentation, and analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldana’s (2014) framework. Findings reveal that storytelling served as the main strategy, implemented through teacher-modeled narration, group projects, multimedia aids, and culturally responsive materials. These approaches improved students’ speaking skills, increased participation, and built confidence. However, several barriers emerged, including limited vocabulary, pronunciation difficulties, passive learning preferences, and resource constraints. Teachers addressed these by scaffolding, providing motivational support, and integrating familiar cultural content to sustain engagement. In conclusion, storytelling proved effective in supporting Thai students’ speaking development while helping pre-service teachers adapt to cross-cultural teaching contexts. The study highlights the importance of innovative, student-centered strategies and intercultural competence in preparing future teachers for global classrooms.

Abstract

Edukasi ecoprint dilaksanakan dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya kesadaran masyrakat terhadap pentingnya menjaga lingkungan serta kurangnya kreativitas dalam menfaatkan potensi alam sekitar. Edukasi ecoprintmenjadi solusi inovatif yang menggabungkan unsur seni, keterampilan, dan nilai ramah lingkungan melalui pemanfaatan bahan alami seperti daun dan bunga sebagai pewarna kain. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan meliputi pelatihan dasar, pendamping proses pembuatan, serta refleksi dan evaluasi. Pelatihan diawali dengan penyampaian materi menggunakan media powerpoint, dilanjutkan dengan demonstrasi dan peraktik langsung. Melalui pelatihan ini, peserta diajarkan teknik dasar ecoprint, mulai dari pengenalan bahan, proses pembuatan motif, hingga tahap pewarnaan dan fiksasi hasil cetakan. Kegiatan pelatihan ini tidak hanya berfokus pada aspek keterampilan teknis, tetapi juga memiliki nilai edukatif dan lingkungan yang tinggi. Melalui pelatihan ini, peserta memperoleh pengetahuan dan keterampilan dalam memanfaatkan bahan alam seperti daun dan bunga untuk menghasilkan karya tekstil ramah lingkungan. Kegatan ini tidak hanya meningkatkan kreativitas dan kepedulian terhadap lingkungan, tetapi juga membuka peluang ekonomi baru bagi warga. Dengan adanya pendampingan dan antusiasme peserta, diharapkan program edukasi ecoprint dapat terus berlanjut dan menjadi salah satu upaya memperdayaan masyarakat yang berkelanjutan di Kelurahan Limau Mungkur. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan peserta dalam teknik ecoprint, serta tumbuhnya kesadaran terhadap pelestarian lingkungan.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the effect of implementing project-based learning (PjBL) models on critical thinking skills in 4th grade elementary school students. This study uses a quantitative approach with a pretest-posttest one group design. Data were collected through tests to measure students' critical thinking skills. Data analysis techniques include normality tests and Paired Sample t-Test tests. The results of the study showed an increase in students' critical thinking skills after the implementation of project-based learning models. The average pretest score of 50.5 increased to 70.5 in the posttest. The results of the Paired Sample t-Test test showed a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05), so it can be concluded that there is a significant influence between the implementation of project-based learning models on students' critical thinking skills. Thus, the project-based learning model is effective for improving the critical thinking skills of 4th grade students of SD Negeri 30 Pasir Tuntung.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the low learning motivation of students in taking the science subject at SD Negeri 5 Palu. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of the use of concrete objects as media on the learning motivation of sixth grade students. Concrete objects as media were chosen because they are able to provide a more realistic learning experience, facilitate the understanding of abstract concepts, and encourage active student involvement in learning. This study uses a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method, involving two groups of students: the experimental group using concrete objects as media and the control group using conventional methods. The data collection technique was carried out by distributing a validated learning motivation questionnaire. The results of the statistical analysis showed that there was a significant difference between the learning motivation of students in the experimental group and the control group. This finding indicates that concrete objects have a positive influence on student learning motivation in science subjects. Therefore, the use of learning media that are real and contextual is highly recommended to improve the quality of learning and optimally encourage student learning interest.
