Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the influence of the speed reading method on the reading comprehension ability of fourth-grade students in an elementary school setting. A quantitative experimental approach was employed, utilizing a One Group Pretest-Posttest research design. The sample consisted of 21 students from SDN Kalitengah II. Pre-test and post-test data were collected through descriptive question sheets. Prior to implementing the speed reading method, students' learning outcomes were predominantly categorized as very low (80.96%) and low (19.04%). However, after implementing the speed reading method, the distribution significantly improved, with only 5.55% classified as very low, and a majority achieving high (77.78%) and very high (16.67%) scores. Statistical analysis using the t-test yielded a tCount of 4.35, surpassing the tTable value of 1.725, leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis (H0) and acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (H1). Thus, the findings indicate that the speed reading method positively impacts students' reading ability. These results have important implications for enhancing reading comprehension in elementary education settings. Highlights: Speed reading improves reading comprehension: This study demonstrates the positive impact of the speed reading method on enhancing reading comprehension among elementary students. Quantitative experimental approach: The study utilized a rigorous quantitative experimental design to examine the effects of speed reading on students' reading abilities. Significant improvement in learning outcomes: The findings revealed a significant improvement in students' learning outcomes, with a majority achieving high and very high scores after implementing the speed reading method. Keywords: speed reading, elementary students, reading comprehension, quantitative experimental study, learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) on the development of simple essay writing skills in third grade students. A quantitative pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest approach was employed. The participants consisted of 23 students from Elementary School Plus Cahaya Budaya, selected using saturated sampling. The data were collected through pretest and posttest essay questions, and the analysis was conducted using t-test. The results indicated a significant improvement in students' writing skills after implementing the CTL learning model, as evidenced by a one-tailed p-value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). This suggests that the CTL approach positively influences the development of simple essay writing skills in third grade students. The implications of these findings underscore the importance of implementing effective teaching strategies, such as CTL, to enhance students' writing abilities at an early stage. Highlights: CTL significantly improves simple essay writing skills in third grade students. Quantitative research reveals the positive impact of CTL on writing abilities. Pre-experimental design provides insights into the effectiveness of CTL in elementary education. Keywords: Contextual Teaching and Learning, simple essay writing skills, third grade students, quantitative research, pre-experimental design.

Abstract

This quantitative pre-experimental study aimed to investigate the influence of the problem-based learning (PBL) model on the writing skills of grade III students in crafting experimental reports on the nature of gas objects. The one-group pretest-posttest design was employed, with a sample of 23 students. The research instrument utilized a description question test. Statistical analysis revealed that the sig value (2-tailed) (0.00) < 0.05, indicating the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha) and rejection of the null hypothesis (Ho). Hence, it can be concluded that the implementation of the problem-based learning model significantly impacted the students' ability to produce high-quality experimental reports on the nature of gas objects. These findings highlight the potential of PBL as a valuable instructional approach to foster effective writing skills and scientific understanding in young learners. Highlights: Significance of PBL: The study examines the impact of problem-based learning (PBL) on the writing skills of grade III students in the context of crafting experimental reports on the nature of gas objects. Quantitative research approach: A pre-experimental design utilizing the one-group pretest-posttest method was employed to investigate the influence of PBL on the students' writing abilities. Positive outcomes: The results indicate a significant influence of the PBL learning model on enhancing the students' writing skills in the production of experimental reports, emphasizing the potential of PBL as an effective instructional approach for scientific writing in young learners. Keywords: Problem-based learning, Writing skills, Experimental reports, Grade III students, Nature of gas objects.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the relationship between students' perceptions of parental roles, their learning interests, and mathematics learning outcomes in elementary schools. Non-experimental quantitative research methods with a correlational design were employed. Data were collected through questionnaires and documentation, and analyzed using SPSS with multiple correlation and regression tests. The results of the multiple correlation test indicated a non-significant correlation (Sig. F change = 0.705 > 0.05), suggesting no relationship between the variables. Similarly, the multiple regression test revealed that neither the perceived parental role (X1) nor learning interest (X2) had a significant correlation with mathematics learning outcomes (Y), as the t-values (0.710 and 0.430) were smaller than the critical t-value (2.086). The obtained value of R (0.185) fell within the uncorrelated category according to established guidelines. Consequently, it can be concluded that there is no significant relationship between students' perceptions of parental roles and learning interests on mathematics learning outcomes in elementary schools. These findings emphasize the need to explore additional factors that may influence students' academic achievements and to develop targeted interventions to enhance mathematics learning outcomes. Highlights: Study investigated the relationship between parental roles, student interests, and math learning outcomes. Non-experimental quantitative methods were used with correlational design. No significant correlation found between parental roles, student interests, and math learning outcomes in elementary schools. Keywords: Parental Role, Student Interests, Math Learning Outcomes, Elementary Schools, Correlation.
