Abstract

Digital learning is rapidly evolving and is increasingly recognized as essential, as it demonstrates adaptability in an era of rapid technological advancement. One area significantly influenced by this development is English education, which has benefited from various learning software and applications targeting the four core language skills: Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing. Among these, mastering speaking skills is crucial in English language learning. However, many students struggle with pronunciation. Engaging and interactive learning media can boost both motivation and learning outcomes. This study is a descriptive qualitative analysis that examines existing digital tools designed to support the development of speaking skills. Using content analysis, the study explores the use of Google Pronunciation, Duolingo, and Cake in teaching English speaking skills to elementary students. These applications provide interactive features and wide accessibility, allowing students to improve their pronunciation and speaking skills independently and in an enjoyable manner. Although these tools share the common goal of supporting English language learning, each has unique strengths and limitations depending on its features and platform. The findings suggest that these technologies can streamline the learning process and significantly enhance student outcomes, making English speaking practice more effective and enjoyable. This study offers an overview of how these digital tools contribute to the improvement of speaking skills among elementary school students.

Abstract

Critical thinking skills are one of the essential competencies that students need to master in science education. The low level of critical thinking skills among elementary school students is the primary reason for conducting this research. This study aims to: 1) Determine the effect of implementing the Discovery Learning model supported by PhET Simulation media in enhancing the critical thinking skills of elementary school students; 2) Assess whether the improvement in critical thinking skills of students using the Discovery Learning model with PhET Simulation media is better compared to those receiving scientific learning. The method used in this research is a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent pretest-posttest control group, involving 54 students on the topic of electrical energy. The instrument used to collect data before and after the learning process is a critical thinking skills test. The results of the study indicate that: 1) There is an effect of learning using the Discovery Learning model supported by PhET Simulation media on students' critical thinking skills; 2) The improvement in critical thinking skills of students who participated in the Discovery Learning model is better than that of students who received scientific learning. Since this research focuses on critical thinking skills in the aspect of competence, it is recommended for future studies to explore critical thinking skills in other aspects, such as knowledge.
