Abstract

Students' low initial reading ability often hinders their learning. Therefore, it is important to know the extent of students' early reading abilities so that any problems that arise can be addressed early on. This study aims to describe the initial reading abilities of first-grade students. Using a qualitative descriptive method, this study involved 60 students from two schools, as well as two first-grade teachers, to gain insight into the factors that hinder students' initial reading abilities in first grade. The initial reading test used the Early Grade Reading Skill Assessment (EGRA) instrument. The results showed that 80% of students still needed guidance, 12% of students were in the good category, and 8% were in the sufficient category. Based on the EGRA assessment indicators, the highest percentage was in letter recognition ability at 43%, while reading comprehension was the lowest at 8%. Other indicators included reading syllables at 34%, reading words at 28%, listening at 29%, and fluency at 19%. The factors causing low reading skills included students' low interest and motivation to read, insufficiently varied teaching strategies and media, a lack of facilities and infrastructure for reading instruction, and the role and support of parents at home. The implication of this research is to determine students' initial reading abilities and their contributing factors, so that strategic steps can be taken to address the low initial reading skills of elementary school students.

Abstract

The development of digital literacy in primary schools has not progressed in line with the increasing availability of digital devices. This study analyzes the implementation of digital libraries in supporting digital literacy learning in a public primary school in Purwakarta Regency. Using a descriptive qualitative method, the study involved 25 participants consisting of one principal (4%), four teachers (16%), and 20 students from grades four and five (80%). Data were obtained through observation, semi structured interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s model of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that digital libraries expand students’access to information and enhance independence in searching for digital content, where 70% of students demonstrate high information-seeking autonomy. Teachers’ utilization of digital libraries is categorized as moderate (50%), while access to digital devices remains uneven, with only 35% of students in the high-access category. The use of digital libraries also strengthens students’ critical and reflective skills, although implementation is constrained by limited facilities, low teacher proficiency in managing digital shelves, and restrictive school policies particularly the ban on mobile phone use. Overall, digital librariesfunction as collaborative learning spaces that support the development of 21st-century competencies when supported by adequate infrastructure and flexible school regulations.

Abstract

Elementary school students are among the largest users of digital devices who are vulnerable to digital crime threats. The use of digital platforms by elementary school students must be accompanied by the developmentof digital literacy skills and the instillation of strong character, so that they do not become victims or perpetrators of digital violations. This research aims to examine the role of the deep learning approach in developing digital literacy and character skills in elementary schools. This study uses qualitative research with observation, interview, and questionnaire techniques involving 30 phase C students and teachers at one of the public elementary schools in Lembang District, West Bandung Regency. The findings in this study indicate that the teacher has implemented deep learning principles that emphasize students' learning experiences as mindful, meaningful, and joyful. The deep learning approach can indirectly encourage students to independently acquire information and develop their digital literacy skills. Deep learning education can also encourage students to develop various knowledge they acquire into a way of life. The deep learning approach plays an important role in creating learning situations that can develop students' digital literacy and character.

Abstract

This study investigates the use of TikTok as a tool to enhance digital literacy in elementary school students. Using a one-group posttest-only design and incorporating the RADEC (Read, Answer, Discuss, Explain, Create) model, the research explored how students transformed their understanding of the topic "Changes in the State of Matter" into creative video content. The study found that TikToksignificantly improved students' understanding, retention, and engagement with the material, while also increasing their motivation and confidence. The structured learning process, guided by the RADEC model, integrated critical thinking and creativity, supporting the development of digital literacy skills. By creating and sharing TikTok videos, students were able to actively engage with the content in ways that traditional methods might not support. The findings suggest that TikTok can be a highly effective educational tool in primary education when used responsibly. This research highlights TikTok’s potential as an innovative educational tool that can enhance engagement and support digital literacy in elementary education

Abstract

This study aims to describe the profile of fifth-grade elementary students’ reading comprehension in narrative texts based on four dimensions of Barrett’s taxonomy: literal, reorganization, inferential, and evaluative–appreciative comprehension. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed and supported by qualitative data. The research subjects consisted of 28 elementary school students. Quantitative data were collected through reading comprehension tests, while qualitative data were obtained from classroom observations, teacher interviews, and analysis of Indonesian language teaching modules. The data analysis technique used was Miles and Huberman with data analysis components, namely data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing.The results of the study show that, in general, students' reading comprehension skills are still moderate to low. Of all participants, no students achieved the excellent category, while 21.4% were in the good category, 21.4% in the fair category, and the rest (57.2%) were still in the poor to very poor category. The highest achievement was seen in the literal aspect, which indicates that students are relatively able to recognize the information expressed in the text. However, in the reorganization, inferential, and evaluative appreciative aspects, most students showed difficulty in rearranging the plot, drawing implied meanings, and critically and reflectively assessing the content of the reading. These results indicate the need to apply more interactive and contextual learning strategies and media to improve the ability to understand the content of reading comprehensively

Abstract

This research is motivated by the low ability of fourth-grade elementary school students to write narrative texts. Many students still have difficulty expressing ideas or themes, structuring a coherent flow, determining characters and settings, and choosing language styles that comply with Indonesian grammar rules. The learning activity process applies a conventional learning model with the lecture method, and the teaching materials used by the teacher are limited to school textbooks. This condition is one of the causes and obstacles for students in developing their imagination and creativity during the writing process. Based on these issues, this research aims to analyze the need for an Ethno-Steam-based learning module to improve the narrative text writing skills of fourth-grade elementary school students. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE method. However, this research is only limited to the Analysis stage. Research data was obtained from interviews, analysis of teaching material documents, and initial observations of learning implementation. The analysis results show that a learning module with an Ethno-Steam approach is highly needed to improve the narrative text writing ability of fourth-grade elementary school students.

Abstract

The rapid advance of globalization has compelled elementary school teachers to continuously adapt to diverse challenges in fostering cultural and civic literacy. This study aims to map the variation of challenges and teaching practices among elementary teachers in Sumedang Regency, focusing on territorial characteristics. Employing an explanatory sequential mixed-method design, the research integrates quantitative data from Likert-scale surveys and qualitative insights from thematic analysis of open-ended responses, collected from 40 teachers in urban, rural, and suburban schools with varying teaching experience. Statistical and thematic analyses reveal notable differences in both the challenges and strategies encountered, influenced by school location and professional seniority. Teachers in urban schools and those with seniority reported greater complexity but demonstrated greater innovation, while teachers in rural and suburban settings faced more limitations in contextual cultural materials, digital access, and parental engagement. Novice teachers expressed a significant need for structured training and school support. Qualitative results highlight key barriers: inadequate cultural materials, limited professional development, diminished student motivation, and time constraints. These findings underscore the imperative for locally grounded resource development and professional training tailored to both territorial and experiential needs to effectively improve cultural and civic literacy at the primary level.
