Abstract

This study aims to examine the correlation between PGSD students' perception (X) of self-efficacy (Y1) and understanding of science (Y2). The problem with this study arises because it is not clear whether students' perception of science learning has an effect on their self-efficacy and conceptual understanding, even though their average comprehension score is quite good (Mean = 71.19). This study uses a correlational quantitative approach involving 21 PGSD UPY students. Perceptions were measured using a questionnaire that had been tested for reliability (α = 0.712), Self-efficacy is measured with its own instruments (α = 0.740), meanwhile, scientific understanding is measured through tests validated through the validity of the content by experts. Data normality test (Shapiro-Wilk, p > 0.05) indicates the data is normally distributed, so Pearson correlation analysis is used. The results showed a significant positive correlation between perception and self-efficacy (r = 0.827; p < 0.01), however, no significant relationship was found between perception and understanding of science (0.297), and between self-efficacy and understanding of science (0.220). These findings indicate that students' positive perceptions are related to self-efficacy, but do not directly affect the conceptual understanding of science.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the challenges and school strategies for improving reading literacy among elementary school students in Pangkalan Kerinci District. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. Participants included principals, vice principals, and teachers directly involved in literacy programs. The data were analyzed thematically through coding, theme grouping, and interpretation of findings. The results showed that the main challenges in reading literacy included limited variety of reading materials, suboptimal reading time, differences in students’ reading interest, and inconsistent implementation of literacy programs. The strategies implemented by schools included the School Literacy Movement, daily reading habituation, shared reading, group discussions, reading corners, digital media, and collaboration with parents. The findings indicate that structured and contextual literacy strategies can improve students’ engagement, reading comprehension, reading habits, and learning outcomes, particularly in subjects requiring text comprehension. The study concludes that literacy improvement requires principal support, teacher creativity, diverse reading materials, and periodic program evaluation
