The quality of social studies learning at the elementary school level remains a concern, particularly regarding the limited use of innovative media and students' low intrinsic motivation. This study aimed to examine the effect of interactive PowerPoint media and learning motivation—both individually and simultaneously—on the social studies learning outcomes of fifth-grade students. A quantitative approach with an ex post facto design was employed. The subjects were 151 fifth-grade students selected through proportional random sampling from a population of 243 students across nine public elementary schools in Siulak Mukai District. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression, the coefficient of determination, t-tests, and F-tests. The results revealed that interactive PowerPoint media had a significant positive effect on learning outcomes (t = 4.23, p = 0.001, Cohen's d = 0.68), as did learning motivation (t = 3.87, p = 0.002, Cohen's d = 0.61). Simultaneously, both variables significantly predicted learning outcomes (F = 18.74, p < 0.001), accounting for 62.3% of the variance in learning outcomes (R² = 0.623). These findings suggest that elementary school teachers should systematically integrate interactive PowerPoint media into social studies instruction while concurrently implementing motivation-enhancing strategies—such as immediate feedback, goal-setting activities, and contextually relevant content presentation—to sustainably optimize student learning outcomes.

Quality education in elementary schools depends significantly on students' learning motivation and the instructional media employed by teachers. This study aimed to examine the effects of learning motivation and offline educational games on social studies learning outcomes among fourth-grade students. A quantitative approach using an ex post facto design was employed. The subjects were 28 fourth-grade students at one public elementary school (SDN) in Danau Kerinci District, Kerinci Regency, selected through total sampling. Data were collected through five-point Likert-scale questionnaires and official academic score documentation, then analyzed using multiple linear regression, the coefficient of determination, the t-test, and the F-test. Prior to the main analysis, classical assumption tests were conducted, including normality, linearity, multicollinearity, and heteroscedasticity tests, all of which were satisfied. The results revealed that learning motivation had a significant positive partial effect on social studies learning outcomes (t = 4.82, p < .05), as did offline educational games (t = 3.61, p < .05). The F-test confirmed a significant simultaneous effect of both variables (F = 18.47, p < .05), with a coefficient of determination of R² = 0.61, indicating that both variables jointly explained approximately 61% of the variance in learning outcomes. These findings suggest that integrating motivational strategies with offline educational game media can meaningfully enhance student achievement in social studies, particularly in rural primary schools with limited digital infrastructure.

The quality of students' academic performance is shaped by a complex interplay of familial and motivational factors. This study aimed to analyze the effects of the family environment and learning interest on Social Studies learning outcomes among sixth-grade students at public elementary schools in Gunung Raya District. A quantitative ex post facto design was employed, with all 85 sixth-grade students from five schools serving as research subjects through a total sampling technique. Data were collected through a four-point Likert scale questionnaire and end-of-semester grade documentation, and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings revealed that both the family environment and learning interest had significant positive effects on students' Social Studies learning outcomes, either partially or simultaneously, with both variables jointly accounting for 50.0% of outcome variance (R² = .50; F = 62.34; p < .001). The family environment emerged as the stronger predictor (β = .48) compared to learning interest (β = .32). These results underscore the critical role of a supportive home environment and intrinsic motivation in enhancing elementary students' academic achievement in Social Studies.

This study aimed to examine the individual and simultaneous effects of family environment and learning motivation on Social Studies learning outcomes among elementary school students at SD Negeri 67/III Lubuk Paku, Kerinci Regency, Jambi Province, Indonesia. A quantitative approach with a causal associative research design was employed, involving 60 students selected through total sampling. Data were collected using validated questionnaires measuring family environment and learning motivation, alongside official end-of-semester academic score documentation. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using IBM SPSS Statistics version 25. Results revealed that family environment (β = 0.369, p less than 0.05) and learning motivation (β = 0.465, p less than 0.05) each exerted a significant positive effect on Social Studies learning outcomes, with both variables jointly explaining 61.0% of outcome variance (R² = 0.610, F = 44.873, p less than 0.001). Learning motivation emerged as the comparatively stronger predictor. These findings underscore the theoretical contribution of integrating self-determination theory within the rural Indonesian elementary school context and carry direct practical implications: teachers are recommended to implement autonomy-supportive instruction and formative feedback practices to strengthen students' intrinsic motivation, while parents are encouraged to establish structured home-learning routines, provide adequate learning resources, and improve the quality of academic communication with their children as foundational supports for Social Studies achievement.

Teacher readiness for professional promotion is a vital factor affecting instructional quality and the sustainability of human resources in elementary education. However, the organizational factors influencing this readiness are not well-studied in regional Indonesian contexts. This study aims to examine how work motivation and principal support impact teachers' readiness for promotion at public elementary schools in Tanah Cogok District. A quantitative method using multiple regression analysis was employed, with data collected from 85 teachers through validated questionnaires selected by proportional random sampling. The results show that both work motivation and principal support significantly and positively influence teachers' promotion readiness, both individually and together, explaining 50.4% of the variance in promotion readiness. Work motivation was identified as the stronger predictor (β = 0.452), highlighting the importance of intrinsic professional drive in preparing teachers for career advancement. These findings suggest that school principals and district education policymakers should develop targeted motivational programs and enhance principal leadership capacity to provide career-supporting strategies as a key part of elementary school human resource management.guru untuk promosi jabatan merupakan faktor penentu kualitas pembelajaran dan keberlanjutan sumber daya manusia di pendidikan dasar, namun faktor organisasional yang mendorong kesiapan tersebut masih belum banyak diteliti dalam konteks daerah di Indonesia.

The quality of Indonesian language instruction in elementary schools is closely related to the instructional approaches and media teachers employ. This study examined the effects of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) integrated with interactive video on the Indonesian language learning outcomes of fifth-grade students. Using an ex post facto quantitative design, this research was conducted with fifth-grade students across public elementary schools in the Bukit Kerman District. Data were collected through documentation of student scores and a structured questionnaire, and analyzed using simple linear regression and multiple regression techniques. The results indicated that PjBL implementation had a significant independent effect on learning outcomes (β = 0.512; p < 0.001; R² = 0.262), as did interactive video utilization (β = 0.487; p < 0.001; R² = 0.237). When examined simultaneously, both variables together explained 40.3% of the variance in student achievement (R² = 0.403; F = 28.74; p < 0.001), suggesting that the integration of active, project-driven pedagogy with dynamic multimedia supports the development of higher-order language skills among young learners and offers a practically viable approach to improving Indonesian language instruction in rural elementary school settings.
