Abstract

Particularly in developing countries, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) are crucial for economic growth and development. This study investigates the impact of leadership position on opportunity recognition in SMEs. The purpose is to examine how leadership positions influence entrepreneurs' ability to identify and capitalize on emerging opportunities in a dynamic business environment. Using a survey research approach, the study targeted 381 owners and managers of SMEs in the food and confectionary subsector in Lagos State, Nigeria. A structured questionnaire was used to gather data, and descriptive and inferential statistical methods, including regression analysis, were employed for data analysis. The results reveal that leadership position significantly influences opportunity recognition in SMEs (R² = 0.357, β = 0.601, t = 10.327, p = 0.05). Strategically minded leaders are better equipped to identify, assess, and seize business opportunities, driving growth and competitive advantage. The study concludes that leadership development is essential for SMEs to enhance opportunity recognition and recommends proactive leadership, organized training programs, and an environment that fosters innovation and strategic foresight. These findings contribute to the broader discussion on leadership and entrepreneurial behavior in developing countries.

Abstract

Islamic education in Indonesia has experienced significant progress in line with the rapid development of technology; however, this progress is also part of Western globalization strategies to disseminate their cultural values. To overcome the negative impacts of globalization and value shifts, revitalizing Qur’anic values in Islamic education is an essential step to safeguard its existence. This article aims to construct a new perspective on the role of Islamic education in shaping students’ character, morals, and achievements to support the education of future Muslim generations through the exploration of Qur’anic values in Surah Al-‘Alaq verses 1–5. This study employs a qualitative method, specifically library research. A phenomenological approach is used to gain in-depth understanding, provide detailed descriptions, apply deep reduction, highlight intersubjectivity, and explore the meaning of the studied object. The findings indicate that the verses of Surah Al-‘Alaq (verses 1–5) contain fundamental values that can serve as guidance in the implementation of Islamic education, including submission and respect, the importance of knowledge and appreciation of science, independence and responsibility, as well as respect for the learning process.

Abstract

The learning approach plays a crucial role in enhancing technical skills in tennis. However, in practice, theoretical approaches are often overlooked, as most sports activities are carried out directly on the court. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effects of various learning approaches and physical factors on tennis drive stroke skills. Specifically, the study analyzed the impact of the Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) approach, the influence of arm muscle strength and gender, as well as the interaction among these factors on the improvement of drive stroke performance. An experimental method with a 2×2 factorial design was employed, involving 64 student participants. Drive stroke performance was assessed using the Forehand Groundstroke Tennis Test Accuracy (Jennifer Love Hewitt Test). Data were analyzed using SPSS version 25.0, with normality and homogeneity tests set at α = 0.05. The results indicated that the TaRL learning method yielded Sig. = 0.00 < 0.05, suggesting that this method can enhance technical performance in tennis. Furthermore, arm muscle strength and gender obtained Sig. = 0.667 > 0.05, indicating that physical strength and gender do not play a critical role in drive stroke outcomes. Finally, no interaction was found among learning approach, arm muscle strength, and gender on drive stroke skills, with Sig. = 0.490 > 0.05. These findings highlight the importance of personalized learning strategies over physical attributes in developing skills for the tennis drive stroke.

Abstract

In the digital era, animated educational media has become an increasingly effective tool in early childhood learning. Nevertheless, research on how visual signs in educational videos can support the learning process remains very limited. This study analyzes the use of visual signs in the Belajar Kosakata video. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, using visual observation and documentation techniques. The research instrument consisted of a visual sign analysis grid developed to categorize the use of icons, indexes, and symbols in educational videos based on Peirce’s semiotic theory. The analysis was conducted on 21 image clips, consisting of 7 icons, 12 indexes, and 5 symbols, selected based on their relevance in delivering educational content. The findings reveal that indexes are the most dominant sign in the analyzed samples, appearing 12 times (57.14%), in the form of sounds and visual effects that link video elements to the concepts being taught. Icons appear 7 times (33.33%) as visual representations of animals resembling their real forms, while symbols are used 5 times (23.81%) in texts or graphic elements that introduce vocabulary. The total percentage exceeds 100% because some images contain more than one type of sign simultaneously. These findings indicate that a semiotic approach in educational videos helps enhance children’s understanding through the combination of visual and auditory signs.

Abstract

Currently, sprint coaches do not yet have a standardized reference or guideline as a parameter for recruiting talented prospective athletes. This study aimed to develop a sprint sports talent selection test instrument for elementary school students. The research employed a research and development (R&D) approach with stages including needs analysis, design, and field trials. Data were collected through literature review, interviews with coaches, and discussions with athletics experts. The developed instrument consisted of anthropometric and biomotor tests. Data analysis was carried out through content validity testing by experts, as well as construct validity and reliability testing using statistical procedures. The results showed that among male students (N = 11), no participants were categorized as highly talented (0%) or untalented (0%), with 25% categorized as talented, 53.41% as moderately talented, and 21.59% as less talented. Among female students (N = 8), 4.69% were categorized as highly talented, 20.31% as talented, 60.94% as moderately talented, 14.06% as less talented, and 0% as untalented. This distribution reflects variations in sprinting ability among students, with the majority falling into the moderately talented category. It can thus be concluded that the developed sprint talent selection test instrument effectively maps the potential of elementary school students in an objective and measurable manner. These findings provide a strong foundation for coaches and educational institutions in identifying, training, and developing young athletes more effectively from an early age.

Abstract

Students' difficulties in understanding and applying metaphorical expressions in Indonesian language learning have led to low engagement and poor writing performance. This issue is exacerbated by the lack of interactive learning media that are appropriate for the developmental characteristics of elementary students in facilitating their comprehension of figurative language. This study aims to develop the Pile of Blocks learning media to support the understanding of metaphorical expressions in the Indonesian language. This research employs a research and development (R&D) method using the ADDIE development model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The research subjects include experts—namely a content expert, an instructional design expert, and a media expert—as well as Grade V elementary school students. Data were collected through interviews, questionnaires, and cognitive learning outcome tests. The instruments used consisted of non-test instruments (interview guidelines and questionnaires) and test instruments (pre-test and post-test). The data analysis techniques included qualitative descriptive analysis, quantitative descriptive analysis, and inferential statistical analysis using a paired sample t-test to measure the effectiveness of the developed media. The final results indicate that the Pile of Blocks media is effective in improving students’ understanding of metaphorical material, as evidenced by the increase in average scores from 59 (pre-test) to 76.1 (post-test), with a paired sample t-test result of 7.23 > 2.021 at the 5% significance level. It can therefore be concluded that the Pile of Blocks media is both feasible and effective for enhancing students’ understanding of figurative language in Grade V Indonesian language learning at the elementary school level.

Abstract

The rapid development of 21st-century technology demands innovation in education; however, mathematics learning in elementary schools is still predominantly delivered through conventional lecture methods. This condition leads to low student motivation and difficulties in understanding concepts, particularly in fraction topics. This study aims to develop, validate, and analyze the effectiveness of a contextual approach-based mathematics learning medium (MaCan) for teaching equivalent fractions to fifth-grade elementary students. This research employed a Research and Development (R&D) design using the ADDIE development model. The subjects consisted of 13 fifth-grade students for limited trials, one subject matter expert, one media expert, and one classroom teacher. Data were collected using validation questionnaires and multiple-choice tests. The data were analyzed through descriptive qualitative, descriptive quantitative, and inferential statistical techniques using a t-test. The results indicated that the MaCan learning media achieved a “good” category in expert validation, media, content, and design, as well as in individual and small group trials. The effectiveness test showed a t-value of 6.578 > 1.782 at a 5% significance level, indicating that H₀ was rejected and Ha was accepted. Conceptually, this finding confirms that MaCan is effective in improving students’ learning outcomes. The study recommends integrating contextual, technology-based learning media as an innovative alternative to enhance the quality of mathematics education in elementary schools.
