Abstract

This study aims to determine whether or not there is an influence of LOK-R (Literacy, Orientation, Collaboration, Reflection) learning strategies on scientific literacy skills. This type of research includes pre-experimental research with a one-group pre-test and post-test research design. This research was conducted at MI Islamiyah Kalimukti with a sample of 15 students. Data were collected by conducting a pre-test to determine students' initial scientific literacy skills and a post-test to determine the increase in students' scientific literacy abilities after implementing the LOK-R learning strategy. Research data were analyzed using descriptive and quantitative analysis. The n-gain study showed an increase in the average pretest and posttest results. Before implementing the LOK-R learning strategy, the average pretest of students was 56.47; then, it increased to 81.33 in the posttest results of students after implementing the LOK-R learning strategy. Likewise, the paired sample test results obtained a significant value of 0.000 <0.05, which means that H0 is rejected and Ha is accepted. This shows that applying the LOK-R learning strategy increases students' scientific literacy skills. Therefore, the LOK-R learning strategy can be an alternative in science learning activities on heat material and its transfer.

Abstract

Physics is one of the subjects that students find difficult to understand. Physics is not only a science that requires memorization, but also requires a deep understanding of its concepts. Physics studies natural phenomena physically and is written in mathematical form, thus emphasizing the aspect of conceptual understanding. In addition to conceptual understanding, another important aspect is student involvement in the learning process. One important topic that needs to be studied is mirrors. The topic of mirrors will be easier to understand if it is practiced so that students can understand it better. Therefore, Phet simulation media is needed.  The purpose of this study is to explain the differences in understanding the concept of mirrors between students who use PBL plus PhET and students who use regular PBL, as well as to analyze the differences in student engagement in learning about mirrors between students who use PBL plus PhET and students who use regular PBL. The population in this study consisted of 64 students from MA Mathalibul Huda and 64 students from MA Darul Hikmah Menganti. Data collection methods included tests, observations, and documentation. The collected data were analyzed using N-Gain and t-tests. Based on the research results, there is a difference in concept comprehension between the PBL Plus and regular PBL learning models, with the PBL Plus class achieving a higher average post-test score of 81.03, while the regular PBL class achieved an average post-test score of 62.31. The N-Gain value - Gain of the regular PBL class was 0.22, while the N-Gain value of the PBL Plus class was 0.58, which is categorized as moderate. The T-test  resulted in a sig value (2-tailed) of 0.00 < 0.05. Thus, it can be concluded that the PBL Plus learning model is effective in improving students’ conceptual understanding of mirror material. In addition, there is also a difference in student learning engagement between the PBL Plus class and the regular PBL class, where PBL Plus shows that the category of active students is higher than that of the regular PBL class based on 4 indicators of student learning engagement.

Abstract

The Saturday Program (PROSA) at SD Negeri Tlogowungu 02 is a co-curricular innovation designed to support 21st-century educational transformation. This program responds to the school’s limited resources, small number of students, and need for more contextual, meaningful, and character-building learning experiences. PROSA is conducted every Saturday through five rotating activities: Sarijo, Sariman, Sarijan, Sadolan, and Saguta. These activities integrate healthy living habits, environmental awareness, gardening, entrepreneurship, and career introduction through the involvement of teachers, students, parents, and the local community. The program applies a Deep Learning approach based on the principles of honoring students, awareness, meaningful learning, and joyful learning. Assessment is carried out formatively and summatively through observation, reflection journals, portfolios, documentation, student products, and feedback from parents and the community. The implementation results show that PROSA improves students’ responsibility, collaboration, creativity, independence, healthy living awareness, environmental care, and entrepreneurial skills. The program also strengthens partnerships among the school, families, and the community. However, the use of technology and parental participation still need further improvement. Overall, PROSA can serve as a relevant co-curricular model for developing students’ competencies holistically in elementary schools.

Abstract

This study investigates pre-service elementary teachers’ perceptions of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)-oriented learning by examining four key dimensions: relevance, pedagogical value, feasibility, and readiness. Employing a quantitative descriptive survey design, the study involved 75 students enrolled in the Elementary School Teacher Education (PGSD) program at a higher education institution located in Bekasi Regency, Indonesia. Data were collected through a validated questionnaire using a five-point Likert scale and analyzed through descriptive statistics, complemented by inferential analysis using Welch’s independent-samples t-test and effect size estimation. The findings reveal that pre-service elementary teachers perceive SDGs-oriented learning as highly relevant to elementary education goals and as having strong pedagogical value, particularly in promoting meaningful, contextualized, and interdisciplinary learning experiences. However, perceptions related to feasibility and readiness were comparatively moderate. Participants expressed concerns regarding curriculum integration, availability of instructional resources, and confidence in designing and implementing SDGs-oriented learning activities. Despite these challenges, respondents demonstrated high willingness to apply SDGs-oriented learning in their future classrooms and strong interest in receiving further professional training. Inferential analysis indicated no statistically significant differences in perceptions based on gender, and effect size analysis confirmed that observed differences were minimal in practical terms. Overall, the results suggest a clear gap between conceptual acceptance and practical preparedness among pre-service elementary teachers. These findings highlight the need for teacher education programs to strengthen practice-oriented approaches, including concrete instructional models and experiential learning opportunities, to enhance readiness for effective SDGs integration in elementary education.

Abstract

This study examined the effectiveness of Canva-based Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) learning media in enhancing elementary school students’ learning motivation. A pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design was implemented at SD Negeri Karangmalang involving 15 students selected through saturated sampling. Data were collected through observation, documentation, and a four-point Likert-scale learning motivation questionnaire. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize students’ motivation scores, while inferential analysis included the Shapiro-Wilk normality test and paired-samples t-test. The mean motivation score increased from 63.87 in the pretest, categorized as sufficient, to 84.40 in the posttest, categorized as very good. The pretest and posttest scores were normally distributed, with p-values of 0.200 and 0.167, respectively. The paired-samples t-test indicated a statistically significant improvement in students’ learning motivation after the implementation of Canva-based IPAS learning media, t (14) = -11.284, p < 0.001, with a large within-subject effect size (Cohen’s dz = 2.91). Classroom observations further indicated improvements in students’ attention, enthusiasm, and participation during IPAS learning. These findings suggest that visually structured and interactive Canva-based media can support motivational engagement in elementary IPAS classrooms. However, because this study involved a small sample and did not include a control group, further research using a more rigorous comparative design is recommended.
