Abstract

This study examines the relationship between the socioeconomic status (SES) of tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 4 Praya and their final physics exam scores for the 2022/2023 academic year. SES indicators include parents' income and education level, collected via qualitative questionnaires and quantitative assessment of physics exam scores. Random Forest Regression and Neural Network techniques were used for analysis. The results showed no significant relationship between SES and physics scores. For parents' education level, Neural Network Regression yielded a Mean Squared Error (MSE) of 323.78 and an R² score of -0.0129, while Random Forest Regression produced an MSE of 327.08 and an R² score of -0.0232. Similarly, for parents' income, Random Forest Regression resulted in an MSE of 327.08 and an R² score of -0.0232, and Neural Network Regression yielded an MSE of 323.78 and an R² score of -0.0129. These negative R² scores indicate that SES does not significantly impact physics exam scores, highlighting the complexity of factors influencing academic performance. This research suggests that other variables may play a more critical role in determining students' success in physics. This research underscores the need for a more comprehensive approach to understanding and supporting student achievement in education.

Abstract

Reading interest among Indonesian communities remains relatively low, including in Montong Are Village, Kediri District, West Lombok. Observations show that the majority of residents, particularly children and adolescents, tend to spend more time on gadgets than on reading activities. To address this issue, the KKN PMD-Literasi team from the University of Mataram implemented the Literacy House and Mobile Library programs as strategic initiatives to foster a reading culture in the community. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach, utilizing direct observation and documentation to assess the community’s reading interest. The results indicated that the Literacy House successfully attracted children to read regularly through the provision of illustrated books, interactive programs such as read-aloud sessions, storytelling, creative writing classes, and traditional games as engagement tools. Meanwhile, the Mobile Library reached remote hamlets, enabling children with limited access to the Literacy House to participate in reading activities. Both programs demonstrated positive impacts in increasing reading interest, boosting the frequency of visits to literacy facilities, and reducing gadget dependency among children and adolescents in Montong Are Village.
