Abstract

Learning motivation is an important factor in the success of adult education, both in non-formal programs, training, and community development. However, many existing motivation measurement instruments still come from formal education adaptation and have not gone through adequate psychometric tests. This study aims to analyze the validity of the instrument for measuring adult learning motivation. The method used was a quantitative survey involving 72 respondents aged 20-50 years from non-formal education and training programs in Central Lombok and West Lombok Regencies. The instrument consists of 25 statements with a five-point Likert scale. The validity of the content was tested using Aiken's V, while the validity of the construct was analyzed by Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) through the MSA test and Bartlett's Test using the R studio application. The results of the study showed that most of the items had medium to high category content validity. MSA values range from 0.64–0.88 and the Bartlett test yields χ² = 1369.036; df = 300; p < 0.001 which confirms the feasibility of the data. The EFA analysis found five factors with an eigenvalue of > 1, but four main factors were maintained with a total variance of 60.4%. These findings confirm that the instrument has adequate construct validity and can be used in adult education evaluation.

Abstract

The majority of students tend to perceive physics as a challenging subject. While numerous studies have investigated the factors contributing to this challenge, more comprehensive qualitative research needs to be conducted that delves deeply into this phenomenon, particularly within the constructivist paradigm. This study employs the constructivist paradigm as a framework to examine the elements that contribute to students’ perception of physics as a challenging subject. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method. The data for this study were collected through a thematic analysis of comments from the Quora platform. The sample consisted of ten comments from the Quora website, selected based on the highest recommendations. The data were subjected to a thematic analysis using ATLAS.ti software version 9. The study identified seven primary themes that analyze the elements contributing to the challenges in acquiring knowledge in the field of physics. These topics include the nature of physics itself, the role of teachers, the characteristics of students, the disparity between physicists and non-experts, the curriculum, parental influence, and the discipline’s historical development. The challenges encountered in studying physics arise from intricate and interconnected causes. Further research could be undertaken to examine efficient learning strategies to overcome these challenges and explore additional variables that may contribute to this phenomenon.Keywords: Constructivist paradigm, physics challenges, physics education, student perceptions, thematic analysisDOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpf.v12.n2.202401

Abstract

The increasing demand for learning platforms that effectively integrate local wisdom and cultural content necessitates an understanding of user expectations, especially among pre-service elementary teachers (PSETs) who will utilize these tools. This study aims to identify the expectations of PSET students regarding the design and implementation of a culture-integrated Learning Management System (LMS), and to explore the challenges they encounter in its use. This study employs a mixed-methods approach, collecting data through a survey administered to 30 PSETs and in-depth interviews with four participants (two male and two female) from the Elementary School Teacher Education Study Program at Yogyakarta State University. The findings reveal seven main aspects that affect the LMS user experience: ease of access, clarity of navigation, material management, speed of assignment collection, technical problems, timely notification, and discussion features. The survey and interview results indicate that technical issues and accessibility remain the primary challenges, while aspects of material management and speed of assignment submission receive positive ratings. Students emphasize the importance of interactive features, culturally relevant content, and an improved LMS interface design. This study concludes that continuous improvements in accessibility, technical support, and the strategic integration of culturally relevant content are crucial for enhancing the learning experience of PSETs. These findings contribute to the body of knowledge by providing specific, empirically-driven design and implementation recommendations for developers and educators seeking to create culturally sensitive and effective digital learning environments for future elementary school teachers.

Abstract

Mathematics learning is often perceived as difficult due to its abstract nature, particularly in the topic of arithmetic sequences and series. This study aims to explore the implementation of scaffolding strategies in teaching sequences and series and to examine their impact on students’ understanding. The research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design involving 22 eleventh-grade social science students from MA Hidatul Islamiyah Bagik Nyaka. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the application of scaffolding through guiding questions, visual representations, step-by-step exercises, and direct feedback effectively enhances students’ conceptual understanding of sequences and series. Students demonstrated improved systematic thinking as well as progress in identifying patterns, understanding formulas, and solving contextual problems. Therefore, scaffolding strategies are proven to be effective in helping students grasp abstract concepts in a more concrete manner. The study recommends that teachers consistently integrate scaffolding, particularly in mathematics learning that requires a high level of conceptual understanding

Abstract

The development of beekeeping edutourism in Pasawahan Village represents an innovative strategy to support rural economic growth while enhancing public awareness of bee ecosystems. This study analyzes the collaborative strategies underpinning this initiative using the Tourism Area Life Cycle (TALC) approach. Employing a descriptive qualitative method, data were collected through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and document analysis.The findings reveal that the development of beekeeping edutourism is driven by multi-stakeholder collaboration involving the village government, BUMDes, Petani Muda Perlebah Foundation, PT PLN (Persero) through its CSR program, and active community participation. This collaboration has been implemented through infrastructure development, technical capacity-building for local residents, and the adoption of digital marketing strategies to enhance tourist attraction and accessibility. Based on the TALC model, Pasawahan’s beekeeping edutourism is currently transitioning from the development stage toward consolidation. This phase is characterized by increasing visitor numbers and the diversification of tourism products and educational services. However, several challenges persist, including a shortage of skilled beekeeping experts, the absence of clear village-level tourism regulations, and suboptimal promotion and ticketing systems.To address these constraints, the study recommends strengthening community-based technical training, formulating village regulations to support sustainable tourism management, and enhancing integrated digital marketing and visitor management systems. With targeted and sustained collaboration, beekeeping edutourism has strong potential to emerge as a leading model of sustainable educational tourism. This study contributes novel insights by examining collaborative innovation in transforming a former sand-mining area into a sustainable edutourism destination in a rural Indonesian context, offering a practical framework for similar initiatives in developing countries.
