Abstract

Critical thinking skills among prospective elementary school teachers remain limited, requiring innovative approaches in learning. This study developed and evaluated QR Code–based teaching materials for the course Basic Concepts of Elementary School Science to enhance students’ critical thinking. Using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design with 59 PGSD students, critical thinking was assessed through four dimensions: clarification, assessment, inference, and strategy. Results showed a significant improvement, with an average N-Gain of 0.429 (moderate), indicating meaningful progress in students’ critical thinking abilities. Score distributions shifted markedly toward higher categories, with the most consistent improvement in the strategy dimension. These findings demonstrate that QR Code–based materials not only make learning more flexible and interactive but also effectively foster higher-order thinking skills. The study concludes that integrating such materials into teacher education curricula is essential to strengthen 21st-century competencies and better prepare future elementary school teachers.

Abstract

The development of digital technology is driving the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education, particularly in lesson planning. This article aims to examine the role of Artificial Intelligence in supporting effective and adaptive lesson planning. The method used is a literature review, reviewing various books, journal articles, and relevant scientific proceedings. The results of the study indicate that AI, particularly generative Artificial Intelligence such as ChatGPT, can help teachers develop lesson plans that are more structured, aligned, and based on student needs. AI supports the formulation of learning objectives, the selection of learning strategies, the development of learning activities, and the design of assessments that align with learning outcomes. In addition to increasing effectiveness, AI also plays a role in creating adaptive lesson plans through the analysis of data on student abilities and learning progress. However, the use of AI still faces challenges related to teacher digital literacy, ethics, data privacy, and infrastructure readiness. Therefore, AI needs to be used wisely as a tool to support teacher professionalism.

Abstract

Mental health is a crucial aspect in shaping the professional readiness of prospective teachers. However, this issue remains underexplored in teacher education, despite the complex emotional and academic pressures faced by students. This study aims to describe the perceptions of prospective teachers regarding mental health, in terms of their knowledge, experiences, and expectations for institutional support. The research employed a descriptive quantitative approach involving 630 prospective teachers from various semesters. The instruments used consisted of a Likert scale, binary (Yes/No) questions, and open-ended questions. Data were analyzed using descriptive techniques, including mean scores, frequency distribution, and thematic analysis. The findings revealed that students demonstrated a high level of awareness regarding the importance of mental health (mean score = 4.85), yet not all felt comfortable discussing the issue or seeking help when experiencing psychological pressure. A total of 63.17% of respondents had experienced or knew someone who experienced mental health problems, but only 37.14% felt they had adequate resources to cope. Student suggestions included the need for mental health education, counseling services, and awareness campaigns within the campus environment. These findings underscore the importance of integrating mental health education into teacher training curricula. Systematic efforts are needed to enhance literacy, reduce stigma, and foster a more supportive campus environment for the psychological well-being of future educators.
