Abstract

This research analyzes the use of the Wordwall digital media platform to increase students' interest and motivation in learning the Food Chain topic in the fifth grade of elementary school. Stemming from the need for innovative learning media in the digital era, the study aims to: (1) describe the implementation process of Wordwall media in learning, (2) analyze its effect on students' learning interest and motivation, and (3) identify supporting and inhibiting factors in its utilization. The research employs a qualitative approach with a case study method at SD Negeri Ujong Tunong. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the principal, the fifth-grade teacher, and 15 supporting student respondents, supplemented by participatory observation and documentation studies. Source triangulation and member checks were used to ensure data validity. Data analysis was conducted systematically using NVivo 15 software through the stages of open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. The results indicate that: (1) The implementation of Wordwall for the Food Chain material was carried out selectively and consistently, functioning effectively as a tool for concept reinforcement and enjoyable formative assessment. (2) The application of Wordwall successfully and significantly increased students' learning interest and motivation, characterized by heightened enthusiasm, focus, active participation, and the emergence of a repeat desire. Its game-based learning aspect triggered intrinsic motivation and reduced student anxiety. (3) Key supporting factors included ease of creation, user-friendliness, flexibility, and its ability to accommodate diverse learning styles. Inhibiting factors consisted of limited features in the free account, difficulty in supporting complex concepts, dependence on internet infrastructure, and limited device availability. In conclusion, Wordwall digital media has proven to be an effective tool for increasing student engagement and motivation in learning science, specifically the Food Chain topic. Its success heavily depends on thorough planning, appropriate material selection, and adequate infrastructure support. This study recommends more integrated use of Wordwall in learning design and the development of teacher competence in utilizing digital platforms to create more meaningful learning experiences.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of School-Based Management (SBM), organizational culture, and the performance of teaching staff in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI) in Maros Regency, as well as to examine the partial and simultaneous effects of SBM and organizational culture on teaching staff performance. This study employed a quantitative approach involving 76 teaching staff as respondents. Data were analyzed using multiple linear regression through the coefficient of determination (R²), F-test, and t-test. The descriptive analysis results indicate that the implementation of SBM is in the very good category with a mean score of 4.25, organizational culture is also in the very good category with a mean score of 4.24, while teaching staff performance is in the good category with a mean score of 4.13. Inferential analysis shows that the coefficient of determination (R²) is 0.804, indicating that 80.4% of the variance in teaching staff performance is explained by SBM and organizational culture, while the remaining 19.6% is influenced by other factors outside the research model. The simultaneous F-test results reveal that SBM and organizational culture jointly have a positive and significant effect on teaching staff performance (F = 149.921; p = 0.000). Partially, SBM has a positive and significant effect on teaching staff performance (t = 4.502; p = 0.000), whereas organizational culture demonstrates a more dominant influence (t = 7.674; p = 0.000). The resulting regression equation is Y = 6.651 + 0.275X₁ + 0.473X₂. These findings confirm that strengthening a conducive organizational culture and consistently implementing effective SBM play a crucial role in enhancing teaching staff performance in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah in Maros Regency.

Abstract

The implementation of Indonesia’s merdeka curriculum represents a major shift toward learner-centered, differentiated, and holistic education. In Islamic education (PAI), this reform is expected to strengthen pedagogical quality and students’ Qur’anic literacy as a foundation for religious character development. However, empirical evidence at the elementary level remains limited. This study examines the effect of merdeka curriculum implementation in PAI on students’ Qur’anic literacy skills at SD Muhammadiyah 11 Surabaya. Using a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, the study involved 46 students in grades four to six who had experienced PAI learning under the merdeka curriculum for at least one academic year. The independent variable was merdeka curriculum implementation, measured through curriculum alignment, teacher competence, and formative–authentic assessment practices, while the dependent variable was Qur’anic literacy, encompassing reading accuracy, comprehension, and value internalization. Data were collected through validated assessments, questionnaires, and observations, and analyzed using descriptive statistics and multiple regression. The results show a high level of curriculum implementation (M = 4.15) and high overall Qur’anic literacy (79.3%). Regression analysis indicates a significant positive effect of merdeka curriculum implementation on Qur’anic literacy (R² = 0.48, p < 0.05), with curriculum alignment as the strongest predictor. These findings highlight the importance of effective implementation and teacher capacity in strengthening Qur’anic literacy at the elementary level.

Abstract

The low motivation and understanding of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) material among elementary school students is caused by the use of less engaging and interactive learning media. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Educaplay learning media in improving motivation and understanding of PAI learning in elementary schools. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach conducted at SDS 021 BEST AGRO INTERNASIONAL from October 2025 to January 2026. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving five fifth-grade students and the principal. The results showed that the use of Educaplay successfully enhanced learning motivation both intrinsically and extrinsically through interactive activities such as quizzes and educational games, with an average observation score of 10.2 out of 12 points. Students' understanding of PAI concepts, particularly worship and morals, also improved with an average assignment score of 82. Interviews with the principal revealed that Educaplay creates enjoyable, participatory, and digitally relevant learning experiences, although its implementation remains limited. Activity documentation shows that Educaplay integration encourages students to be more active and understand Islamic values contextually. These findings confirm that the use of educational game-based media can be a strategic alternative for PAI teachers in increasing students' interest and deepening their understanding of Islamic teachings, while enriching theoretical studies on the effectiveness of interactive media in religious learning at the elementary school level.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) learning strategies in optimizing students' concentration and social skills at SD Negeri 12 Tanah Luas. The background of this research departs from the problem of low student learning focus and the tendency to emerge social behavior that is less adaptive in daily learning activities. MBSR as a fully conscious approach is believed to be able to help students manage attention, emotions, and social interactions more positively. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive study design. The subjects of the study include classroom teachers, students, and principals as key informants. Data collection techniques are carried out through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data were analyzed using Miles & Huberman's interactive model that included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study showed that the implementation of MBSR was carried out through several stages, such as mindful breathing exercises, body scans, mindful listening, and self-reflection at the end of learning. Based on the results of observations and interviews, MBSR has been proven to be able to increase students' concentration through strengthening self-regulation, increasing awareness of learning activities, and the ability to focus longer on the subject matter. In addition, students' social skills also develop, characterized by more polite communication skills, empathy, cooperation, and reduced conflicts between students. The implementation of MBSR also creates a calmer, conducive, and supportive learning atmosphere. This study concludes that MBSR is an effective learning strategy to improve the concentration and social skills of elementary school students. The implications of this study emphasize the need for training for teachers in implementing MBSR regularly and the integration of mindfulness in school habituation activities.
