Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of animated videos and Quizizz on student learning outcomes in Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) among fourth-grade elementary students. A quasi-experimental design with nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest was employed, involving 40 students at SD Negeri 8 Mamboro divided into experimental (n=20) and control (n=20) groups. The experimental group received instruction through animated videos and Quizizz, while the control group continued with conventional methods over three weeks. Data were collected using validated achievement tests (Cronbach's α = 0.767) and analyzed through Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon Signed-Rank tests. Results revealed significant differences between groups, with the experimental group achieving superior posttest performance (M = 76.75, SD = 11.154) compared to controls (M = 65.00, SD = 15.728), confirmed by Mann-Whitney U test (U = 104.000, p = 0.009). Normalized gain analysis demonstrated moderate effectiveness for the experimental group (N-Gain = 0.4876) versus low effectiveness for controls (N-Gain = 0.2688). Completion rates improved substantially from 5% to 60% in the experimental group, compared to 10% to 25% in controls. These findings support cognitive theory of multimedia learning and self-determination theory, demonstrating that integrated implementation of animated videos and Quizizz significantly enhances elementary science learning outcomes through dual-channel information processing and gamified assessment that sustains motivation and engagement.

Abstract

Computer animation has emerged as a promising educational tool, yet its effectiveness in resource-constrained Indonesian elementary schools remains underexplored, particularly for teaching abstract scientific concepts. This study examined whether computer animation learning media significantly affects third-grade students' learning outcomes in understanding changes in object forms. A quasi-experimental design with nonequivalent control groups was employed, involving 30 third-grade students at SDN 12 Palu, Indonesia. The experimental group (n=15) received animation-based instruction via Google Meet, while the control group (n=15) received conventional image-based instruction via WhatsApp. A validated 15-item achievement test (α=0.87) was administered as pretest and posttest. Data were analyzed using independent samples t-test. Although the experimental group achieved higher posttest scores (M=86.67, SD=11.75) compared to the control group (M=72.67, SD=17.92), the difference was not statistically significant (t(28)=2.53, p=0.17). Both groups demonstrated improved learning outcomes, with mean gains of 28.67 and 10.00 points respectively. The null findings suggest that animation's theoretical advantages did not materialize under pandemic-constrained online delivery conditions. Implementation quality, technological infrastructure limitations, and online delivery mediation likely offset potential cognitive benefits. Results underscore the importance of optimal implementation conditions for educational technology effectiveness in developing country contexts.

Abstract

The family environment is widely recognized as a foundational determinant of children's learning motivation; however, empirical evidence from urban-periphery communities in Indonesia—particularly those characterized by trade-based parental occupations—remains limited.  This quantitative correlational study involved all 23 fifth-grade students at SD Negeri 20 Palu, Central Sulawesi, recruited through total sampling. Data were collected using two validated Likert-scale questionnaires measuring family environment and learning motivation, supplemented by semi-structured interviews with teachers, the school principal, and selected parents. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test, Pearson product-moment correlation, and coefficient of determination analysis with SPSS 25.  The family environment yielded a mean score of 77.03 (good category), while learning motivation yielded a mean of 84.59 (high category). Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant moderate positive relationship between the two variables (r = 0.561, p = 0.004). The coefficient of determination indicated that the family environment accounted for 31.5% of the variance in learning motivation.  These findings align with Self-Determination Theory and the bioecological model, confirming that parental attention, emotional support, and a conducive home learning atmosphere are meaningful predictors of student motivation. The remaining 68.5% of unexplained variance underscores the complementary roles of school-based and individual-level factors.

Abstract

The Maleo (Macrocephalon maleo) is an endemic bird species found in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. This species belongs to the order Galliformes and is distinguished by a prominent black, hard casque on its head, an orange beak, predominantly black plumage, and yellowish facial skin. The Maleo exhibits a unique reproductive strategy, as it does not incubate its eggs directly. Instead, it buries them in loose sandy soil that is naturally heated by geothermal activity. According to the 2021 assessment by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the Maleo is classified as Critically Endangered under criteria A2cd+4cd (Version 3.1) of the IUCN Red List. This study aimed to describe the characteristics of Maleo nesting habitats in Bukit Jaya Village, Banggai Regency, in order to support the conservation of suitable in situ breeding and nesting environments. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, focusing on direct field observations and literature review. Sampling stations were determined using an exploratory survey method, in which sites were purposively selected based on habitat characteristics to observe Maleo nesting conditions and the surrounding vegetation. Data collected included nesting-hole depth and width, temperatures inside and outside the nesting holes, sand surface temperature, and humidity. Measurements were conducted three times daily at 08:00, 13:00, and 17:00. The results showed that: (1) nesting-hole depth ranged from 43 to 46 cm, with an average of 44.4 cm; (2) nesting-hole width ranged from 47 to 53 cm, with an average of 50 cm; (3) between 08:00 and 17:00, the average temperature inside the nesting holes was 31°C, the average temperature outside the holes was 35.74°C, the average sand surface temperature was 36.2°C, and the average relative humidity was 72.62%; and (4) the nesting habitat in Bukit Jaya Village was characterized by diverse vegetation growth forms, including trees, shrubs, herbs, and climbing plants (lianas). A total of 16 plant species belonging to 12 families were identified within the nesting habitat. The protection of nesting habitats should be continuously strengthened to help prevent the extinction of this valuable and iconic bird species.
