Abstract

Teaching English at the primary school level is a foundational stage in developing pupils' language competence. However, students often struggle with vocabulary acquisition when taught through traditional, verbal-heavy methods. This study employs a qualitative literature review method to explore the role of visual aids and multimedia in enhancing English instruction. The analysis reveals that visual media, such as flashcards, posters, and realia, provide essential cognitive support by linking linguistic forms to concrete meanings. Furthermore, the integration of digital multimedia—including videos and interactive applications—significantly boosts student motivation, engagement, and oral communication skills. While digital tools offer authentic language exposure, their effectiveness depends on thoughtful instructional design, teacher competency, and adequate school infrastructure. The study concludes that a strategic combination of traditional visual aids and modern multimedia creates a more interactive and meaningful learning environment conducive to long-term vocabulary retention and 21st-century skill development.

Abstract

This study explores the various challenges encountered by teachers when teaching three-dimensional geometry to fifth-grade elementary students and outlines alternative solutions based on recent scholarly findings. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, this study reviews theoretical perspectives and relevant documents to gain a comprehensive understanding of the issues. The results indicate that difficulties in teaching solid geometry arise from several interconnected factors, including students’ abilities, teachers’ preparedness, curriculum demands, availability of learning tools, and overall learning conditions. Limited spatial visualization skills, the scarcity of manipulatives, and the lack of diverse instructional approaches frequently hinder learning outcomes. Additionally, the demanding curriculum and inadequate learning environments further reduce instructional effectiveness. Recent research suggests that concrete manipulatives, real-world contextual learning, and technological tools such as GeoGebra 3D and Augmented Reality can significantly support students’ understanding. Strengthening teachers’ pedagogical skills through professional development is also highlighted as a crucial step. Implementing these strategies is expected to enhance students’ comprehension of solid geometry in a more meaningful and engaging manner.
