Abstract

As the components of the Pancasila Student Profile change, a key objective of twenty-first-century education is to foster critical thinking skills. The primary aim of this study is to outline critical thinking skills in science education centered around Plant Reproduction materials at the elementary school level. A quantitative descriptive approach is employed, involving seventeen sixth-grade students from SD Negeri Ceweng as participants. The research tool used is a two-tier multiple-choice assessment. The assessment designed based on six indicators of critical thinking skills: interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference, explanation, and self-regulation. The finding revealed that students scored 37.05% (low category) in Interpretation, 57.65% (medium category) in Analysis, 79.4% (high category) in Evaluation, 73.5% (high category) in Inference, 57.65% (medium category) in Explanation, and 34.15% (low category) in Self-Regulation. In general, the students' average score for critical thinking was 56.57%, indicating a medium or relatively good level of critical thinking.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the implementation of Ki Hajar Dewantara education theory at the basic education level, especially at SD Negeri Ngudirejo 1, Jombang District, focusing on learning practices and their impact on improving the quality of basic education. Ki Hajar Dewantara, as an Indonesian education figure, is known for his contribution to the development of holistic and humanist education. This study uses a qualitative approach with classroom observation methods, interviews with teachers, and document analysis to collect data on learning practices related to the theory of Ki Hajar Dewantara. The results showed the implementation of various aspects of Ki Hajar Dewantara theory in learning practice at SD Negeri Ngudirejo 1. Teachers adopt principles such as freedom of learning, stage play is stage learning, and empowerment of learners. In addition, this study reveals the positive impact of the implementation of the Ki Hajar Dewantara theory on improving the quality of basic education, both in terms of learning outcomes and character development of students. The application of Ki Hajar Dewantara theory in learning practice at SD Negeri Ngudirejo 1 has a positive impact in forming students who are more independent, creative, and have strong character. These findings contribute to the understanding of educational practices in accordance with the principles of Ki Hajar Dewantara and reinforce the urgency of applying the theory in improving the quality of basic education in Indonesia. The implications of this research can also be the basis for the development of education policies that are more oriented towards holistic and humanist approaches advocated by Ki Hajar Dewantara.

Abstract

The implementation of differentiated learning that is integrated with the development of social-emotional competencies in the context of the Independent Curriculum in this webinar activity is to explore the strategies and approaches used by educators in maximizing differentiated learning to improve the quality of education. The main focus of this activity is to review how adaptive learning to students' needs can support their social-emotional development, which ultimately contributes to the formation of a generation that is better prepared to face life's challenges. Through key questions and interactive discussions, this webinar uncovered various best practices applied in the field, as well as the challenges faced by educators in implementing differentiated learning in the Independent Curriculum. The results mentioned that differentiated learning integrated with social-emotional competence has a positive influence on improving student learning motivation and student learning outcomes in the context of Merdeka Curriculum. It can be concluded that overall, the surveyed teachers often implement differentiated learning in their classrooms. The percentage figure is 82.3% which indicates a very high level of agreement with the integration of KSE in differentiated learning. Teachers must enhance and incorporate KSE to supports student development.

Abstract

Given the critical role of energy in our daily lives and the increasing complexity of energy systems, addressing misconceptions about energy among elementary students is imperative for fostering energy literacy and responsible citizenship. This research aims to overcome elementary school (SD) students' misconceptions in understanding the concept of energy and its changes by using the PhET Colorado simulation application. Misconceptions in science learning at the basic level can hinder students' understanding of more complex concepts at the next level of education. The PhET Colorado app provides interactive simulations that allow students to learn through virtual experiments, thereby helping clarify concepts that are difficult to understand. This research uses an experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design. Students were divided into two groups: an experimental group that used PhET simulations and a control group that used conventional learning methods. Data was collected through written tests and observation of learning activities. Data analysis was carried out by comparing the pretest and posttest results of the two groups to measure the increase in understanding of the concept of energy and its changes. The results showed that the use of the PhET Colorado simulation significantly improved students' understanding of the concept of energy and its changes. Students who study with PhET experience a greater reduction in misconceptions compared to students who study through conventional methods. These findings indicate that interactive simulation-based learning can be an effective strategy in overcoming misconceptions in elementary school students, as well as increasing their interest and motivation in learning science.
