Abstract

The main issue addressed in this study is the learning difficulties in Visual Arts and Crafts (Seni Rupa dan Prakarya) experienced by fourth-grade students at SDN 1 Bunta, along with the efforts made by teachers to overcome these challenges. The study aims to identify the contributing factors to the learning difficulties encountered by students in the Visual Arts and Crafts subject, particularly focusing on a class of 22 students, two of whom were identified as having significant learning challenges. It also seeks to explore the strategies employed by teachers in supporting these students. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that the learning difficulties in Visual Arts and Crafts stem from both internal and external factors. Internal factors include physical and psychological conditions of the students. External factors involve influences from the family, school environment, and broader community. The efforts undertaken to address these difficulties include the use of appropriate learning models, providing additional lessons tailored to the subject matter, assigning homework, and offering remedial teaching.

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.
