Abstract

Twenty-first-century competency frameworks emphasize critical reasoning as a core skill, while integrating Islamic values into education is considered important for providing an ethical foundation in students’ decision-making. However, there are still limited digital worksheets that combine Problem-Based Learning (PBL) with Islamic values in elementary natural and social sciences. This study developed and evaluated the feasibility of a PBL-based digital worksheet integrating Islamic values for Grade 5 natural and social sciences learning. The research and development design followed the ADDIE model: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The product (a digital presentation, a student worksheet guide, and interactive worksheets) was validated by experts and trialed with 19 Grade 5 students and 1 teacher in Yogyakarta. Instruments included expert validation questionnaires and user response questionnaires (5-point Likert scale); data were analyzed by calculating percentage scores and qualitatively assessing comments and observations. Expert validation indicated high feasibility (material expert 100%; media expert 84%). In a limited classroom trial, the worksheet’s practicality reached 76% (teacher) and 65.47% (students). Qualitative feedback identified technical constraints (e.g., connectivity issues), user behaviors (e.g., skipping tutorials, off-task web browsing), and the need to improve content clarity and simplify the presentation of Islamic values. Overall, the PBL worksheet integrating Islamic values was found to be valid and practical, but it requires technical refinements, enhanced digital scaffolding, and more concrete formulation of values to strengthen connections between environmental learning and Islamic principles. Practical implications include developing an offline or lighter version of the media, making tutorials non-skippable, and strengthening digital classroom management. Further research with a quasi-experimental design and a broader sample is recommended to test the worksheet’s effectiveness in improving students’ critical thinking.

Abstract

This article examines the implementation of the deep learning approach in teaching Bahasa Indonesia at the elementary school level, aligned with the guidelines issued by Puskurjar. Utilizing a qualitative literature review method, this study analyses how the core principles of deep learning (mindful, meaningful, and joyful learning) can resolve persistent pedagogical challenges in early language acquisition. The findings reveal that the deep learning approach systematically supports the structured development of six core language skills (listening, speaking, reading, viewing, writing, and presenting) by shifting classroom dynamics from mechanical memorization to authentic linguistic practice. Furthermore, the study outlines four critical roles for educators in fostering a deep learning emotional anchor. Ultimately, this approach successfully bridges abstract linguistic concepts with students’ daily realities, cultivating active, reflective, and sustainable language competencies in elementary school students.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kebutuhan guru dan siswa kelas IV sekolah dasar dalam pembelajaran aksara Jawa. Menggunakan metode campuran (mixed methods) dengan desain sequential explanatory, penelitian ini melibatkan 148 siswa dan 10 guru di Kecamatan Butuh, Kabupaten Purworejo melalui angket, wawancara, serta observasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan keterbatasan penggunaan media digital, di mana 84,2% siswa menyatakan guru belum pernah menggunakan media tersebut dan 80% guru belum konsisten dalam pemanfaatannya. Temuan utama mengungkapkan bahwa 82,9% siswa mengalami kesulitan pada materi sandhangan dan pasangan, namun terdapat minat yang sangat tinggi terhadap teknologi (94,5%) dan permainan edukatif (89%). Meskipun guru sepakat bahwa permainan edukatif meningkatkan motivasi (90%), kendala fasilitas tetap menjadi hambatan utama. Disimpulkan bahwa diperlukan media pembelajaran interaktif yang relevan dengan perkembangan kognitif anak. Media Monopoly Hybrid diusulkan sebagai solusi efektif karena menggabungkan permainan fisik dan teknologi untuk menciptakan pembelajaran yang menyenangkan serta memotivasi siswa. Analisis kebutuhan ini menjadi landasan bagi pengembangan media pada tahap penelitian selanjutnya. Needs analysis for the development of a hybrid media tool for teaching Javanese script to elementary school students Abstract: This study aims to analyze the needs of teachers and fourth-grade elementary school students in learning Javanese script. Employing a mixed-methods approach with a sequential explanatory design, the research involved 148 students and 10 teachers in Butuh District, Purworejo Regency, utilizing questionnaires, interviews, and observations for data collection. The results indicate a significant gap in digital media integration, with 84.2% of students reporting that teachers had never used such media and 80% of teachers lacking consistency in its application. Key findings reveal that 82.9% of students struggle with sandhangan and pasangan characters, yet there is a high interest in technology (94.5%) and educational games (89%). Although 90% of teachers agree that educational games enhance motivation, infrastructure remains a primary obstacle. It is concluded that there is an urgent need for interactive learning media tailored to children's cognitive development. The "Monopoly Hybrid" media is proposed as an effective solution, combining physical play with technology to foster a fun and motivating learning environment. These results serve as a foundation for developing instructional media in the next research phase.

Abstract

Abstrak: Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya penguasaan kosakata Bahasa Inggris pada siswa ADHD yang mengalami kesulitan dalam memusatkan perhatian, mengingat, dan menggunakan kosakata yang telah dipelajari. Siswa ADHD umumnya menunjukkan karakteristik seperti inatensi, hiperaktivitas, impulsivitas, mudah terdistraksi, serta kesulitan dalam mengikuti instruksi pembelajaran secara berurutan. Kondisi tersebut menyebabkan pembelajaran kosakata menjadi kurang optimal apabila hanya menggunakan metode konvensional. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan penguasaan kosakata Bahasa Inggris serta keterlibatan siswa dalam pembelajaran melalui penerapan metode Visual, Auditori, dan Kinestetik (VAK). Penelitian ini menggunakan metode Penelitian Tindakan Kelas (PTK) model Kemmis dan McTaggart yang dilaksanakan dalam dua siklus dengan tahapan perencanaan, pelaksanaan tindakan, observasi, dan refleksi. Subjek penelitian adalah satu siswa ADHD kelas VII. Data penelitian diperoleh melalui observasi, tes, dan dokumentasi. Instrumen penelitian meliputi lembar observasi aktivitas siswa dan tes hasil belajar kosakata. Data dianalisis secara deskriptif kuantitatif dan kualitatif untuk mengetahui peningkatan penguasaan kosakata Bahasa Inggris dari pra-siklus hingga siklus tindakan tanpa menggunakan teknik triangulasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan metode Visual, Auditori, Kinestetik (VAK) berhasil meningkatkan penguasaan kosakata Bahasa Inggris siswa ADHD. Nilai siswa meningkat dari 52 pada pra-siklus menjadi 68 pada Siklus I dan 86 pada Siklus II. Selain itu, keterlibatan, perhatian, dan keaktifan siswa dalam pembelajaran juga mengalami peningkatan yang signifikan. Penerapan metode VAK membantu siswa lebih fokus, aktif, dan mudah memahami kosakata melalui kombinasi stimulus visual, auditori, dan kinestetik. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa metode VAK efektif dalam meningkatkan penguasaan kosakata Bahasa Inggris pada siswa ADHD. Oleh karena itu, metode ini direkomendasikan sebagai alternatif strategi pembelajaran yang sesuai untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa ADHD.

Abstract

Background – Pancasila Education in elementary schools is often implemented through teacher-centered approaches, which may limit students’ active participation and opportunities to relate Pancasila values to everyday experiences. Therefore, learning innovations that provide meaningful, collaborative, and reflective learning experiences are needed to support character development and 21st-century competencies. Objective: This study aimed to describe the implementation of Project-Based Learning with Collaborative Reflection (PJBL-CR) as a learning innovation in Pancasila Education for fifth-grade elementary school students. Method – This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach involving 14 fifth-grade students and one Pancasila Education teacher at SDN Kraton 6, Magetan, Indonesia. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, student reflection journals, and documentation. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. Results – The findings indicate observed changes in students’ learning activities during the implementation of the PJBL-CR model. Descriptive classroom observations showed increases across five indicators: active participation in discussions increased from 42% to 86%, ability to express opinions from 35% to 79%, group collaboration from 50% to 88%, participation in project activities from 47% to 90%, and contextual understanding of Pancasila values from 53% to 84%. These percentages were used as descriptive support for the qualitative findings and were not intended as inferential statistical evidence. Student reflection journals and interview data further suggest that collaborative reflection helped students examine responsibility, tolerance, mutual cooperation, and democratic decision-making during project activities. Conclusion – The PJBL-CR model may serve as an alternative learning strategy for strengthening character education and 21st-century competencies in elementary school contexts. The novelty of the model lies in the systematic integration of collaborative reflection throughout project-based learning phases, enabling students to connect project experiences with the practical implementation of Pancasila values. However, because this study was limited to a single classroom with a small number of participants, further studies involving broader educational contexts are recommended.

Abstract

The diverse and multicultural educational dynamics of Indonesian society demand an inclusive model that is responsive to cultural diversity. The national curriculum often fails to accommodate multicultural values. This study explores the development of multicultural learning through a research-based learning cycle method at Sanggar Anak Alam (SALAM), a culture-based non-formal schooling. A qualitative case study design was used, and data were collected through interviews, observation, and document analysis involving 35 participants. Thematic analysis and triangulation with Atlas.ti revealed three main findings: 1) inclusive understanding strengthens student multicultural awareness; 2) the learning cycle method proved effective in instilling multicultural values; and 3) close collaboration between facilitator parents and schools was key to driving innovation in learning practices. The model developed in this study contributes significantly as a prototype for enriching culturally responsive curriculum that can be adapted into formal education systems to build students' multicultural competence, critical thinking, and empathy.
