<![CDATA[The purpose of this research is to improve motivation and learning achievment of students in theme-based learning using blended learning model in primary schools. This type of research is mixed methods, with the design of embedded experimental models. The mixed methods model consist of three phase. They are pre-intervention, during an intervention, and after intervention. Those phase pre-intervention, interviews with the class teacher, surveys, given the motivation questionnaire, and pre-tests. Then the intervention of theme-based learning using a blended learning model, observation for learning. Then the after-intervention, given the post-test, motivation questionnaire and response after learning implementation. To gain the quantitative data to strengthen the quantitative data the student's response, then focus group discussion (FGD) was implemented. Final interpretation of the data based on quantitative and qualitative data. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon Rank and triangulated whit the quantitative. The sample of the study was 113. The data collection was conducted by questionnaire, interviews, and documentation. Results of this study was an increase in motivation and learning achievement significantly. This is evident by the analysis of statistical tests obtained an average increase of 56.50 learning motivation and learning achievement at 57.00. Base on the data analysis can be concluded is an improvment increase in motivation and learning achievement of students after following theme-based learning using blended learning. Students were also responding very well to the learning. Thus the theme-based learning using a blended learning model in primary schools are very effective and recommended for in primary schools especially upper-grade students.]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to determine the effect of quantum learning model with the series of drawings media on the learning achievement to write narrative of the fifth grade students of elementary school in The district of Kudus. The type of this research is quasi-experimental with non equivalent controlled group design. The sampling technique used was Cluster Random Sampling followed by purposive sampling technique. The result of n-gain analysis shows that the quantum learning with the drawing media in the control class gets 0.29 with low criteria while the experimental class gets 0.33 with moderate criteria. The ttest results show that tvalue is 5.911 while ttable is 2.006 or tvalue > ttable and the significance of it is 0.000 so H0 is rejected. The linear regression test of the quantum learning model by using series of drawing media towards the learning result of writing essay ability is 97.0%. Based on the data analysis it can be concluded that there is a significant influence on the use of quantum learning models by using a series of drawings as media on the results of students' ability in learning to write narrative essays.]]>

<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of PBL model by using the demonstration method on the problem-solving skills to elementary school students. The study applied quasy experimental research method with pretest-posttest control group design. The population of this study was the fourth grade students of Diponegoro cluster in Kudus, Central Java in the academic year 2017/2018. The samples taken for this study were the fourth grade students of SD 1 Kajeksan and SD 2 Demaan with the total number of 30 students for each school.

The data collection technique applied in this study was test in the form of essay, as well as non-test technique which consists of observation and documentation. The data were analyzed by using gain score and t-test. The results showed that there is significant influence of PBL model by using demonstration method to student problem solving ability, this is supported by N-Gain result = 0.59 that is categorized as medium category. Then, pretest-posttest results of problem-solving ability by using PBL model with the demonstration method were tvalue = 7.667. Furthermore, there was a difference betwen students' ability in solving the problems by using PBL model within and without demonstration method (tvalue (3,801) > ttable (1,672)). This is supported by the result of observation to the student engagement which was 81.11%. It indicates that the PBL model by using demonstration method affects the problem solving abilities.]]>
