Abstract

The research focused on using Cambridge One LMS as an e-learning platform for Grade 3 English students at Semesta Bilingual Elementary School in Semarang. The main aim was to understand teachers' and students' challenges when using the Cambridge One LMS for English learning and find solutions. The researcher interviewed school principals, curriculum representatives, 2 English teachers, and four students from grades 3B and 3C at Semesta Bilingual Elementary School to collect data. The researcher also gave questionnaires to 40 students from classes 3B and 3C using Google Forms. Additionally, the researcher observed how Cambridge One LMS was used in English lessons. The questionnaire results showed that students positively viewed using the Cambridge One LMS for English lessons. However, the interviews revealed that teachers faced difficulties due to a lack of knowledge of technology, and the students had limited access to the Internet and computers or laptops. To address this, the school ensures effective use of the Cambridge One LMS by organizing workshops or training sessions provided by itself or a Cambridge representative. It offers comprehensive user guides or online tutorials for detailed instructions and access to support resources, such as help desks or customer support, which becomes beneficial for teachers' guidance. The school encourages collaboration among teachers familiar with the system to offer additional insights. Allowing time to explore the platform helps teachers become more comfortable and proficient. Finally, the school requests parents provide students with a computer or laptop for home use. Additionally, the school will enhance internet access and expand the computer lab facilities to support the teaching and learning process.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the effect of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model on students’ learning motivation and critical thinking skills in fourth-grade Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) classes in Magelang Regency. The study was motivated by the relatively low levels of students’ learning motivation and critical thinking skills in IPAS instruction, which has predominantly been conducted using conventional teaching methods. Therefore, a more active, contextual, and student-centered learning model was considered necessary. This research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent control group design. The sample consisted of an experimental class taught using the PjBL model and a control class taught using conventional instruction. The research instruments included a learning motivation questionnaire and a critical thinking skills test, both of which had been tested for validity and reliability. The data were analyzed using MANOVA to determine the effect of the PjBL model on both dependent variables simultaneously and partially. The results indicated that the Project Based Learning model had a significant effect on students’ learning motivation and critical thinking skills, both partially and simultaneously. Thus, the implementation of PjBL was proven to be effective in improving the quality of IPAS learning in elementary schools and in strengthening students’ critical thinking skills and learning motivation.
