Abstract

Teacher Performance Appraisal plays an important role in enhancing the quality of learning, especially in vocational hingh schools where innovation is crucial to meet the challenges of the digital era. However, empirical evidence on the relationship between Teacher Performance Appraisal and teachers’ learning innovation is still limited. This study employed a quantitative approach with a survey method. Data were collected from 75 Private Vocational High Schools that are members of the Head Teacher's Working Group Banyuwangi Region 3 (Genteng, Glenmore, and Sempu) using an online Likert-scale questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression with SPSS 25.0. The results indicate that both Teacher Performance Appraisal and learning innovation levels are in the “Good” category. Regression analysis shows a positive and significant relationship between Teacher Performance Appraisal and learning innovation, with a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05) and a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.521. This implies that 52.1% of the variance in learning innovation is explained by Teacher Performance Appraisal. The findings suggest that Teacher Performance Appraisal contributes significantly to motivating teachers to adopt innovative teaching practices. This highlights the importance of optimizing Teacher Performance Appraisal implementation not only as an evaluative tool but also as a strategic instrument for continuous professional development in vocational education.

Abstract

Purpose – The learning process in schools presents a variety of challenges, one of which is the impact of teaching methods, student difficulties, and external factors on the learning process. One of the main challenges is the teaching approach that still relies heavily on mechanistic methods, which often makes learning mathematics feel meaningless for students. The purpose of this study is to analyze students' verbal representation thinking ability and process in HOTS problem-solving based on the Adversity Quotient.Methodology – The research approach employs a mixed-methods design. The subjects in this study are students of Class X (Grade 10) at SMKS Muhammadiyah 5 Srono, consisting of 35 students. Data analysis techniques utilize tests, questionnaires, interviews, and observations.Findings – The study's results showed that students' verbal representation abilities and processes in HOTS problem-solving, as measured by the Adversity Quotient, were classified as good for students who achieved high scores. The higher a student's resilience at the Adversity Quotient stage in facing challenges, the better their verbal representation abilities and processes in HOTS problem-solving.Contribution – The contribution of this study is to provide an overview of how the right learning stimulus, related to students' resilience, can enhance the ability and thought process of verbal representation in HOTS problem-solving.

Abstract

Numeracy skills are fundamental competencies in primary education to prepare students for the demands of the digital era. However, numeracy achievement in several elementary schools still requires strengthening through innovative digital learning media. This study aims to (1) determine the effectiveness of Khan Academy–based learning media in improving numeracy skills among elementary school students in Pacitan Regency, and (2) analyze changes in numerical literacy following its implementation. A quantitative approach supported by descriptive data was employed. Data were collected through pre-tests, post-tests, and interviews with teachers and students regarding their perceptions of Khan Academy. Quantitative data were analyzed using the Paired Sample t-Test to compare pre-test and post-test results, while qualitative data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate a significant improvement in students’ numeracy performance. The average score increased from 60.4 to 78.2, with an average gain of 17.8 points. Statistical analysis revealed a t-value of –60.603 with p < 0.05, indicating a significant difference between pre-test and post-test scores. Students also demonstrated high engagement in interactive exercises, along with increased independence and conceptual understanding. In conclusion, the use of Khan Academy as a digital learning medium effectively enhances numeracy skills in primary education and serves as an innovative solution to support technology-based learning in the digital era.

Abstract

This study aims to examines the implementation of Outdoor Learning (ODL) as a strategy to enhance early childhood language development at KB Aisyiyah Cakru, Jember. Grounded in the view that early language abilities are fundamental to cognitive, social, and academic growth, ODL was introduced through contextual activities such as visiting a traditional market and exploring a local herbal garden. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through observations, semi-structured interviews with teachers and parents, and documentation of children’s learning activities. The findings show that ODL provides authentic, meaningful, and multisensory learning experiences that significantly improve children’s receptive and expressive language skills, including vocabulary acquisition, sentence formation, confidence in communication, and spontaneous verbal interaction. These results align with Vygotsky’s Zone of Proximal Development and the principles of Contextual Teaching and Learning, demonstrating that real-world engagement strengthens language use through social interaction and experiential stimuli. The study concludes that ODL is an effective and relevant pedagogical approach for supporting early language development, particularly in rural PAUD settings rich in local environmental resources.
