Abstract

This quasi-experimental study examined the effect of the Project, Activity, Cooperative Learning, and Exercise (PACE) model on eighth-grade students' mathematical communication ability in solid geometry. Forty students from SMPN 6 Model Kota Sungai Penuh were assigned to an experimental group (PACE model) and a control group (conventional instruction). Both groups received six learning sessions on cubes and cuboids, followed by a six-item essay test assessing three communication indicators: written text, drawing, and mathematical expressions. Data analysis using independent samples t-test revealed the experimental group achieved a significantly higher mean score (81.25, high category) compared to the control group (73.125, moderate category); t(38) = 2.899, p = 0.006. The rejection of the null hypothesis confirmed that PACE implementation positively influenced students' ability to express mathematical ideas through verbal explanations, accurate visual representations, and appropriate symbolic notations. The model's project-based and collaborative components effectively scaffolded students' articulation of geometric concepts, demonstrating its pedagogical value for enhancing mathematical discourse in Indonesian lower secondary classrooms.

Abstract

This study identified effective models of Islamic STEM integration in elementary science learning, evaluated their impact on character building and scientific literacy, and formulated implementation recommendations. The separation between science content and Islamic values hindered holistic character development in Indonesian primary schools. The researcher conducted a systematic literature review following PRISMA protocol by analysing 28 indexed articles from 2018 to 2024 sourced from Scopus, Web of Science, and Sinta databases. Three effective integration models emerged: thematic-Quranic verses, ethics-project, and Islamic science history, yielding significant improvements in religious character (28.1%) and scientific literacy (26.5%). Project-Based Learning proved most effective (82.1%) by creating authentic learning experiences. Major barriers included lack of integrated curriculum, teachers' multidisciplinary competence, and combined learning resources. The research successfully developed the Islamic-Character and Science-Literacy Integration (IKILS) conceptual framework that positions Islamic values as the foundation of STEM education. Islamic STEM integration demonstrates feasibility and effectiveness in resolving religion-science dichotomy while shaping khalifah-character generation
