Abstract

Empathy and innovation are increasingly recognized as core graduate attributes in higher education, yet conventional lecture-centered pedagogies often struggle to cultivate these complex capacities. This quantitative study investigates the effectiveness of integrating Arts-Based Methods (ABMs) within a student-centered learning framework to foster empathy and innovation among undergraduate students in a social sciences program. Drawing on prior research that demonstrates the potential of arts and humanities education to enhance empathic skills and perspective taking, the study employs a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design in a compulsory semester-long course. A total of 182 students were assigned to either an ABM-integrated, student-centered condition or a conventional student-centered condition without arts integration. Standardized instruments were used to measure multidimensional empathy and self-reported innovative behavior. Descriptive statistics, independent samples t-tests, and multiple regression analyses were conducted. Results indicate that students in the ABM condition showed significantly greater gains in perspective taking, empathic concern, and self-reported innovation than peers in the comparison group, even after controlling for gender, prior artistic engagement, and baseline scores. Findings suggest that ABMs, when systematically embedded within student-centered learning, can create participatory, reflective, and emotionally rich learning environments that support the development of empathic and innovative dispositions in higher education

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the values of multicultural education contained in thematic textbooks of elementary school through literature review. The method used is library research with content analysis technique on thematic textbooks of elementary school curriculum 2013 and other supporting literature. The results showed that the elementary thematic textbooks have integrated various multicultural values such as tolerance, pluralism, democracy, humanism, justice, and equality. These values are spread in various learning themes and subthemes, both explicitly and implicitly through stories, illustrations, and student activities. The integration of these multicultural values supports the creation of an inclusive and harmonious learning environment, and is relevant to the national education objectives to shape the character of learners who are able to coexist in a pluralistic society. However, there are still some values that are not evenly distributed throughout the themes, so continuous evaluation and development of thematic elementary textbooks are needed.

Abstract

This study investigates the multifaceted influence of digital learning analytics on student achievement within educational settings. The rapid integration of technology in education has given rise to the widespread utilization of digital learning analytics, which has the potential to transform how educational assessment strategies are designed and implemented. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, gathering quantitative data through surveys from various educators, students, and administrators while conducting qualitative interviews to provide deeper context. The findings indicate a significant adoption rate of digital learning analytics, with approximately 75% of surveyed institutions incorporating these tools into their assessment practices. Furthermore, most educators, administrators, and students perceive the positive impact of digital learning analytics on student achievement. However, the study reveals the nuanced effectiveness of various analytics tools and highlights pedagogical and ethical considerations associated with their use. The results underscore the need for tailored approaches to digital tool implementation and suggest the importance of balancing technological innovation with a holistic view of education. This research contributes to the ongoing dialogue on technology's role in education. It serves as a foundational step in understanding how digital learning analytics can enhance educational assessment and ultimately improve student achievement in the digital age.

Abstract

The use of multimedia technology in teaching English has become one of the most powerful methods to improve students' vocabulary skills at the primary school level. The study conducted in this research uses the literature study method. The results show that multimedia can create a much more interesting and varied learning experience, which in turn facilitates the recall and comprehension of new English words. Through the dynamic interaction provided by multimedia, students can see and hear words in various contexts, which helps to enrich their understanding. Furthermore, the use of multimedia can accelerate the teaching- learning process and increase students' motivation to learn English. Multimedia content is often designed with interesting visual and audio elements and educational games that encourage learning. These features not only make learning more fun, but also create a positive competitive atmosphere, so that students become more actively involved in learning and experience faster vocabulary improvement. However, the successful utilisation of multimedia in English vocabulary learning requires effective integration by teachers and sufficient technological support. Appropriate teaching strategies, along with continuous evaluation of student progress, are key to optimising learning outcomes. Thus, multimedia serves not only as a teaching aid, but also as a core component that can enrich the learning experience and improve student achievement at the primary school level

Abstract

This article analyses the transformation of digital literacy-based language learning through the role of technology and artificial intelligence (AI) in enhancing students’ language competencies in the era of the Merdeka Belajar Curriculum. Using a descriptive-analytical literature review approach, it was found that digital literacy is revolutionising the learning paradigm from teacher-centred to student-centred through interactive media such as e-books, collaborative platforms, and problem-based projects that holistically hone the four language skills. AI technology, through chatbots, speech recognition, and automated writing evaluation, provides adaptive learning, instant feedback, and gamification that boosts motivation and learning efficiency by up to 40%, despite facing challenges such as the digital divide, teacher competence, and academic ethics. This transformation supports the vision of the Pancasila Student Profile towards the golden generation of 2045, with recommendations for digital pedagogy training, equitable infrastructure, and strict AI regulations.
