Abstract

Indonesia’s high vulnerability to natural disasters has placed increasing importance on the Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) education. Much of the existing literature emphasizes disaster education in scientific school subjects, but physical education (PE) remains underexplored yet promising. This qualitative study investigated the perceptions of PE teachers in disaster-prone regions of Central Java, Indonesia, and the implementation of disaster education in their teaching practices. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with 14 junior high school PE teachers, thematic analysis revealed three central themes: 1) the contextual realities shaping teachers’ experiences, 2) the perceived value of PE as a vehicle for disaster education, and 3) the creative pedagogical strategies in disaster education. Despite limited curriculum support, teachers integrated disaster education through warming-up routines, simulation games, and fitness activities to develop agility, coordination, and leadership among students. The findings highlight PE’s applied and experiential aspects as well as its potential for interdisciplinary collaboration. However, the study also exposes systemic barriers, such as centralized policy constraints and lack of institutional support. To enhance disaster preparedness in schools, the study advocates for policy reforms that integrate disaster education into the PE curriculum and promote localized and context-sensitive practices. These efforts can contribute meaningfully to student safety, community resilience, and holistic educational development.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of a teacher's handbook designed for handball learning grounded in a sociocultural approach, with the objective of enhancing empathy among elementary school students. The research was motivated by global concerns regarding the decline in children's empathy, attributed to increased digitalization and limited direct social interactions, particularly in urban areas such as Sleman. Employing a quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent control group design, the study involved two groups of students from different elementary schools. The experimental group utilized the teacher's handbook, while the control group received conventional learning. The study instruments included a validated and reliable empathy questionnaire, alongside observations of empathetic behaviors during the learning process. Statistical analysis revealed that the experimental group experienced a significant increase in empathy levels compared to the control group, with a mean difference of 6.2 points. The t-test indicated a significant value (p < 0.05), signifying a statistically significant difference between the two groups. These findings demonstrate that the sociocultural-based handball learning model is effective in fostering empathy among students and offers a practical solution for integrating character into physical education through developmentally appropriate game based learning in elementary schools.
