Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the philosophical foundations, academic underpinnings, and policy directions of Early Childhood Education (ECE) curriculum in China and compared them with Indonesia’s ECE framework. The study employed a systematic literature review approach to identify and synthesize scholarly sources, policy documents, and international academic publications related to early childhood education. The review process involved the stages of identification, selection, extraction, and synthesis of literature through thematic analysis and a comparative framework. The findings indicated that China’s ECE curriculum was rooted in Confucian, Taoist, and Buddhist values that emphasized morality, social harmony, and emotional balance. Educational reform under China Education Modernization 2035 strengthened the integration of traditional values with pedagogical innovation and promoted play-based learning. In contrast, Indonesia’s ECE curriculum was grounded in Ki Hajar Dewantara’s philosophy and Pancasila values, which highlighted learner autonomy and holistic character development. The comparative analysis revealed that both countries faced distinct challenges: China dealt with early academic pressure and disparities in teacher quality, while Indonesia focused on improving teacher competence and equitable learning facilities. The study conclusion that the successful implementation of ECE curricula depended on policy consistency, professional teacher development, and collaboration between schools and families

Abstract

This quantitative study examines the impact of a teaching practicum, integrated with Lesson Study, on the pedagogical competency of 93 pre-service science teachers in the Pendidikan Profesi Guru (PPG) program at Universitas Tadulako, Indonesia.  This study is a quantitative survey using purposive-stratified sampling (N = 93 PPG teachers). The data relied on self-assessment questionnaires, risking subjective bias. The intervention included iterative Lesson Study cycles (Plan–Do–See–Reflection). Practically, the results support LS-based practicum improvement, but generalization is limited to similar PPG contexts and regional settings. Data were gathered using self-assessment questionnaires and bolstered by Lesson Study, using a validated 5-point Likert-scale instrument that was aligned with the four phases of Lesson Study (Plan, Do, See, Reflection). The findings supported H₁ and rejected H₀, indicating a high level of general pedagogical competency (M = 3.62, SD = 0.45).  Plan (M = 3.67) and Do (M = 3.65) phases showed strengths, especially in ICT integration and conceptual clarity, while See (M = 3.55) and Reflection (M = 3.58) phases showed relative deficiencies.  Regression analysis revealed that Reflection ratings significantly predicted overall competency (β = 0.32, p < 0.001, R² = 0.28), and repeated-measures ANOVA validated significant phase differences (F (3,276) = 4.82, p = 0.003, η² = 0.05). The results demonstrate how well Lesson Study promotes evidence-based pedagogical development, particularly through iterative reflection, and provide empirical evidence in favor of its broader implementation in Indonesian PPG programs to improve science teacher training in areas with limited resources. This study contributes theoretically by operationalizing PSCST-based pedagogical competence within a Lesson Study framework.

Abstract

Environmental anxiety has increasingly been recognized as a significant psychological response to the global ecological crisis, particularly among adolescents within formal educational settings where climate change discourse is integrated into learning processes. As schools function as primary spaces for cognitive, emotional, and moral development, understanding how educational contexts shape students’ ecological concerns become essential. This study examines the impact of educational background on students’ environmental anxiety by comparing Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) and non-Islamic schools in South Tapanuli Regency. Employing a quantitative comparative design, data were collected from 60 students (30 pesantren and 30 non-pesantren) using an adapted Environmental Anxiety Scale. The analysis covered five dimensions: fear of ecological disasters, future anxiety, ecological guilt, ecological paralysis, and denial. Findings indicate that non-pesantren students reported significantly higher anxiety levels across all dimensions (p < 0.05), while also demonstrating stronger pro-environmental behavior (p < 0.01). In contrast, pesantren students exhibited lower anxiety levels, potentially reflecting the internalization of religious values and communal support as adaptive coping mechanisms. These findings suggest that educational background significantly influences adolescents’ emotional and behavioral responses to environmental challenges. The study contributes to policy discourse by emphasizing the integration of ecological literacy with spiritual and ethical reflection to foster ecological resilience and responsible behavior among young learners.

Abstract

Science learning in the modern era demands innovative teaching strategies that focus not only on conceptual mastery but also on developing students' science process skills and scientific attitudes. This study analyzes the effectiveness of a deep approach to learning—characterized by higher-order thinking and constructivist strategies—on these competencies in physics education. A quasi-experimental Nonequivalent Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design was employed, involving two groups of 200 students each: the experimental group received the deep learning intervention, while the control group used conventional methods. Data from written tests, observations, and attitude questionnaires were analyzed using ANCOVA to control for pretest differences between non-equivalent groups. Results showed significant improvements in the experimental group. Science process skills advanced across all indicators (observation: mean 78.12; classification: 77.45; prediction: 75.90; measurement: 76.30; concluding: 77.80; communicating: 78.50), with overall posttest mean of 76.97 (SD=7.35; t=2.95; p=0.006 <0.05) versus control's 69.37 (SD=8.12). Scientific attitudes also improved (curiosity: 77.20; openness to evidence: 76.80; objectivity: 75.90; critical thinking: 76.50; collaboration: 77.00), yielding mean 76.09 (SD=6.84; t=2.04; p=0.047 <0.05) against control's 75.00 (SD=7.20). The constructivist-based deep approach to learning effectively fosters essential scientific competencies, providing practical recommendations for meaningful physics instruction in Indonesia

Abstract

This research investigates the influence of Game-Based Learning (GBL) using Assemblr Edu on digital skills and critical thinking of fourth-grade students in mathematics. A quasi-experimental design with nonequivalent control groups compared 22 students from SDN Sidorejo 01 and 02, Wungu District, Madiun Regency. The experimental group received mathematics instruction using GBL with Assemblr Edu incorporating Augmented Reality technology, while the control group received conventional methods. Data collection utilized practical tests for digital skills, written tests measuring critical thinking based on Facione's framework (interpretation, analysis, explanation, evaluation, self-regulation, and inference), and observational methods. Purposive sampling ensured equivalent class sizes and comparable academic achievement. Data analysis employed normality testing, homogeneity testing, paired sample t-tests, and independent sample t-tests. Results revealed significant improvements in the experimental group's digital skills (mean increase=7.73, t=8.942, p<0.001) and critical thinking abilities (mean increase=6.37, t=7.865, p<0.001) compared to the control group (mean increases of 2.18 points each). Independent t-test confirmed significant differences between groups (digital skills: t=7.234, p<0.001; critical thinking: t=6.518, p<0.001). The study demonstrates that integrating game-based pedagogical approaches with augmented reality technology effectively enhances 21st-century competencies in elementary mathematics education, particularly in semi-rural contexts.

Abstract

The study was conducted in an elementary school in Kutai Village. The population of the study was The population in this study were all elementary school science teachers in Kutai Village, totaling 111 teachers spread across 28 schools. Of the 111 teachers in the population, 53 were selected as samples using a random sampling technique with the Taro Yaname and Slovin formula with a precision of 10%. The data collection technique in this study used a questionnaire with a Likert scale. In addition, documentation techniques were used to obtain supporting data related to school conditions and teacher profiles. The research instrument used was a closed questionnaire that was first tested for validity and reliability. Validity testing was carried out to determine the extent to which the instrument was able to measure what should be measured, while reliability testing was carried out to determine the level of consistency of the research instrument. The collected data were analyzed using statistical analysis techniques. The results of the study indicate that the work motivation of elementary school teachers in Kutai Village has a low and insignificant relationship with their professional abilities (0.309). The contribution of teacher work motivation in rural areas is also insignificant, at 9.5%. In addition, teachers also experience obstacles in developing their professionalism. This study recommends that local governments provide stimulus and encouragement to teachers in rural areas to continue developing their professionalism. The implication is the need for a more comprehensive approach in efforts to improve the professionalism of science teachers in elementary schools in Kutai Village. Increasing teacher work motivation alone is not enough to produce optimal professionalism if it is not accompanied by structural and institutional support

Abstract

This study aims to utilize Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) analysis as a diagnostic framework to identify and map the root causes of performance losses in critical cream filling machinery within a cosmetics manufacturing company in East Java, recognizing that fragmented or piecemeal approaches to evaluating machine performance often fail to capture the interrelated sources of production inefficiency. The research was conducted over a three-month period using a descriptive quantitative method through direct observation of filling machine operations. The collected data included machine operating time, downtime, production output, and defective units. In this study, OEE was applied not merely as a performance indicator but as a loss-based diagnostic tool capable of systematically revealing hidden inefficiencies affecting equipment effectiveness. The results show that OEE values fluctuated significantly between 20.31% and 90.51%, with monthly averages of 71.12%, 80.62%, and 61.29%, respectively. While the quality component remained relatively stable at above 98%, substantial variations were observed in availability and performance due to machine downtime and reduced operating speeds. Further analysis using the Six Big Losses framework identified setup and adjustment time and idling or minor stoppages as the dominant contributors to decreased machine effectiveness, confirming that the filling machine functions as a critical production bottleneck whose instability directly influences production continuity. These losses collectively accounted for the majority of production interruptions and performance deterioration throughout the observation period. The findings underscore the importance of systematically reducing the Six Big Losses to stabilize and improve OEE. Implementing preventive maintenance, minimizing setup time variability, and strengthening operational discipline are therefore essential steps for achieving sustainable improvements in machine effectiveness and overall production efficiency.
