Abstract

This study aimed to assess the comprehension levels of prospective primary school teachers regarding verbal and visual representation models of static electricity. A survey was conducted involving 110 prospective teachers from West Java Province, selected through purposive sampling. Participants were categorized based on their secondary school study programs and gender. The study utilized a five-tier test as the instrument for data collection, with responses analyzed using descriptive statistics. Verbal and visual responses were categorized into several levels. Analysis revealed that the majority of both verbal and visual responses fell into the lack of knowledge, misconception, unidentified categories. These findings highlight the inadequate understanding of static electricity concepts among prospective primary school teachers, which may contribute to students' difficulties. Differences in educational background and gender did not significantly influence the comprehension levels in either verbal or visual representations of static electricity concepts. This provides insight into the fact that the topic of static electricity, though often regarded as straightforward and revisited at various educational stages from primary to secondary school, remains a source of widespread misunderstanding and error. The study underscores the critical need for targeted interventions in teacher education programs to enhance understanding and effective teaching of scientific concepts like static electricity at the primary school level.

Abstract

Numeracy skills have become a highly crucial foundational competence in responding to the demands of the 21st century, particularly in the development of mathematical literacy and problem-solving abilities. However, the numeracy achievement of students in Indonesia remains relatively low, as indicated by reports from PISA and the National Assessment. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Gasing Method (Gampang, Asyik, dan Menyenangkan / Easy, Fun, and Enjoyable) in improving students’ numeracy skills across various regions in Indonesia. The research employed a quantitative approach using a pre-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. The sample consisted of 203 participants from four regions: Mesuji Regency, Karanganyar Regency, Bojonegoro Regency, and Bandar Lampung City. Data were collected through numeracy test instruments (pretest and posttest) and analyzed using descriptive statistics and a Two-Way ANOVA test with SPSS. The results indicate a significant improvement in numeracy skills across all regions, where the average pretest scores were in the low to moderate categories and subsequently increased sharply to nearly the maximum scores in the posttest. The Two-Way ANOVA analysis confirms that the implementation of the Gasing Method has a significant effect on improving numeracy skills (Sig. < 0.001), with an R² value of 0.688, indicating a strong contribution of the model to the increase in scores. These findings provide empirical evidence that the Gasing Method is effective, adaptable across diverse regional contexts, and relevant as a learning strategy to strengthen numeracy skills in Indonesia.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness of a workshop in improving school principals' perceptions regarding deep learning implementation using the RADEC model (Read, Answer, Discuss, Explain, Create) in Bandung City, Indonesia. Using a weak experiment design with one group pretest-posttest non-control method and 14 perception indicators, Mann–Whitney U analysis revealed that the workshop significantly improved principals' understanding in 10 of 14 indicators (p < 0.05), particularly on RADEC syntax stages and their contribution to 21st-century skills. However, three foundational deep learning principles (joyful, meaningful, mindful learning) and the Answer stage showed strong understanding prior to the workshop (p > 0.05), indicating the workshop successfully closed knowledge gaps in technical RADEC aspects. Although effectiveness is limited to the perception dimension rather than direct implementation impact, these findings confirm the workshop was effective as a cognitive foundation for adopting innovative pedagogy. The study recommends: (1) continuous mentoring to transform perception into practice; (2) intensive coaching program by the Education Office through lesson study and community of practice; (3) integration of technical and philosophical dimensions in professional development initiatives. The research implies that while workshops are crucial, they are insufficient educational transformation requires a systemic support ecosystem connecting knowledge with implementation at the school level.
