Abstract

This community service program was conducted in response to the need to strengthen integrated literacy and numeracy competencies among preservice elementary school teachers. The purpose of this study was to enhance students’ reading–writing literacy and numeracy skills through the implementation of integrated thematic learning in the Elementary School Teacher Education Program (PGSD) at Universitas Satya Wiyata Mandala. The method employed was a participatory and reflective community service approach, implemented through thematic learning workshops, guided practice, mentoring, and continuous reflection activities. Participants were actively involved in critical reading, reflective writing, and contextual numeracy problem-solving embedded within thematic learning activities relevant to elementary education. Data were collected through observation, literacy and numeracy assessments, student response questionnaires, and documentation, and analyzed descriptively using qualitative and simple quantitative techniques. The findings indicate that the implementation of integrated thematic learning effectively improved students’ ability to connect reading, writing, and numeracy skills in a meaningful and contextual manner. In addition, students demonstrated increased pedagogical awareness, confidence, and readiness to design thematic learning activities that integrate literacy and numeracy for elementary classrooms. Overall, the program successfully achieved its objectives and shows strong potential for sustainable implementation in preservice teacher education to support the development of competent and reflective future elementary school teachers.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of science and technology has demanded innovation in education, particularly in learning approaches that foster student motivation and engagement. This study aims to investigate the influence of mathematical literacy skills and the use of audiovisual media on student learning motivation at Al-Madina Nabire Middle School. Employing a quantitative method with multiple linear regression analysis, data were collected from 28 eighth-grade students through questionnaires measured on a Likert scale. Classical assumption tests confirmed that the data met requirements for normality, multicollinearity, autocorrelation, and homoscedasticity. The results revealed that mathematical literacy skills did not significantly affect learning motivation, whereas the use of audiovisual media had a significant and positive impact. Simultaneously, both variables accounted for 92% of the variance in learning motivation, with audiovisual media being the dominant factor. These findings suggest that integrating audiovisual media in mathematics education can effectively boost student motivation, offering a more engaging alternative to conventional literacy-focused instruction. This research contributes empirical evidence for educators and policymakers on the benefits of innovative media in learning design, particularly in diverse and challenging school contexts. Future studies are recommended to expand sample size, explore additional variables such as teacher competence or school environment, and apply qualitative methods for deeper insights into the learning process.
