Abstract

This study aims to examine the impact of the Sarimukti Final Disposal Site (TPA) on the social environment in three elementary schools located around the site, as well as the perceptions of students, teachers, and parents regarding its impact. The Sarimukti TPA raises concerns about air, soil, and water pollution that can affect the health and well-being of the surrounding community, especially elementary school students. The research uses a qualitative descriptive method with a case study design, involving three school principals, six teachers, twenty students, and three parents as research subjects. Data was collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The results of the study show that the existence of the Sarimukti landfill has the potential to cause negative impacts on children's health and the social environment of the school and the surrounding community. These impacts affect not only physical conditions but also the social aspects and welfare of students, teachers, and parents. In addition to interactions in the teaching and learning process at school, students' interactions with the surrounding social environment, including physical environmental conditions, also determine the quality of education in primary schools. Thus, the existence of the landfill has a significant impact on the social environment and education in the area.

Abstract

This qualitative paper reports on the work-integrated learning of preservice teachers in two primary rural schools implementing multigrade teaching as support to schoolteachers. The problem in this study is that it is not common for preservice teachers to do their work integrated learning in multigrade schools. The aim of this study is to use work-integrated learning of preservice teachers as support to teachers teaching in rural primary schools. The study is couched in critical emancipatory research as the theoretical framework to empower and engage participants in the research study. Participants in this study were ten purposefully selected preservice teachers from one university and four experienced teachers, two from one of two primary schools. Participatory action research with focus group discussions was used to generate data. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis by identification and reporting of patterns. The findings revealed that work-integrated learning of preservice teachers provides support to teachers in rural schools. The study suggests a continuous working relationship between rural schools and the teacher education institutions. The recommendation in this study is for teacher education institutions to support teachers in rural schools by sending preservice teachers to rural schools during work-integrated learning.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the process and results of improving students' mathematical abilities in solving contextual problems through the implementation of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model and the Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) approach. The PBL model is designed to develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills through problems relevant to the real world. The TaRL approach is integrated to accommodate the heterogeneity of students' levels of understanding through identifying individual needs and providing guidance. The Kemmis and McTaggart Classroom Action Research (CAR) model was carried out for two cycles. The subjects of the study were 32 students in the second grade of senior high school in Surabaya. Data collection techniques included contextual problem-solving ability tests (descriptions) and participatory observations using teacher and student observation sheets. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively to calculate the average class score and percentage of learning completion. Minimum competency achievement is 75. Qualitative data were analyzed to describe the quality of the learning process. The results showed a significant increase. In cycle 1, the average class score reached 85.47 (good category) with a completion of 84.38%. The improvement continued in cycle 2, where the average value increased to 89.12 (Very Good category) and completion reached 93.75%. The novelty of this research lies in integrating the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model with the Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) approach, a combination rarely used to simultaneously improve students' problem-solving abilities and address differences in learning levels within the same class.

Abstract

The study explores the synergy of research paradigms comprising the living education paradigm, action learning paradigm, action science paradigm, and cooperative paradigm with critical theory in an action research study. This is supported by the explanation in Figure 4. Action research changes situations that people encounter in their everyday activities. Purposive sampling was used to select Grade 8 Technology Education (TE) teachers. Thirteen TE teachers from seven public schools participated in the study through the emancipation action research approach. Data were generated through observations and interviews. In collaboration, TE teachers were engaged in Progressive Environmental Action Research (PEAR) activities. The study found that TE teachers experience challenges in schools, including the integration of environmental matters into their subject. The implementation of PEAR activities addressed teachers’ challenges in their schools and shared insights on the synergy of research paradigms and critical theory. There is a synergy between research paradigms and critical theory, where identified problems are turned into workable solutions. Applying the research paradigms and the critical theory in TE has implications for teaching and learning in schools. The study’s findings are useful for TE teachers and other stakeholders when planning activities that promote collaborative learning, as advocated by research paradigms and critical theory.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence offers teachers the opportunity to improve English-language skills among vocational high school students, enabling them to compete globally. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of AI-based voice chatbots through a systematic literature review. Following the PRISMA protocol, 16 articles were comprehensively analyzed after rigorous screening of 374 studies from the Scopus and ScienceDirect databases. The findings revealed a diverse range of platforms, with Duolingo dominating as the primary learning medium. The integration of voice chatbots has been shown to significantly improve students' oral performance, particularly in pronunciation, grammatical accuracy, coherence, and fluency. This improvement in speaking skills is driven by automated feedback based on repeated practice. AI-based chatbots have also been shown to increase motivation by enhancing Willingness to Communicate (WTC) and learning enjoyment through gamification elements and a non-judgmental interaction environment. Practically, vocational high school teachers are advised to integrate AI as a partner in authentic communication simulations. The study recommends learning designs that combine instant AI feedback with specific scenarios to create an adaptive and low-stress learning ecosystem.

Abstract

Adaptive learning systems (ALSs) aim to personalize education by adjusting content and learning pathways in response to learner performance and behavior. This study conducts a comparative evaluation of four widely adopted adaptive learning models: Item Response Theory (IRT), Bayesian Networks (BN), Collaborative Filtering (CF), and Reinforcement Learning (RL). The evaluation integrates conceptual analysis and empirical simulation, using the large-scale EdNet dataset comprising over 131 million learner interactions. Each model was implemented in Python and assessed with standard metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score, with class imbalance addressed through SMOTE. Results show that RL consistently achieves the strongest performance across personalization accuracy, adaptability, and responsiveness to learner feedback, particularly under balanced conditions. BN closely follows, offering robust predictive accuracy alongside interpretability and cognitive modelling. CF shows moderate effectiveness, with improvements under SMOTE but limited adaptability in sparse or dynamic environments. IRT consistently performs lowest, maintaining value primarily in assessment contexts. Based on these findings, the study proposes a hybrid RL–BN framework, combining RL’s dynamic personalization with BN’s interpretability to create transparent, scalable, and pedagogically grounded ALSs. The results contribute evidence-based guidance for educators and developers in selecting and integrating adaptive learning models to meet diverse learner and institutional needs.

Abstract

This study examines the impact of teacher agency on the implementation of Ghana’s 2019 Standards-Based Creative Arts Curriculum in public and private primary schools. While the curriculum promotes creativity, cultural identity, and critical thinking, its implementation faces challenges such as inadequate resources, limited teacher training, and institutional neglect. Guided by the Concerns-Based Adoption Model (CBAM), the study investigates how teacher perceptions, professional autonomy, and resource environments affect curriculum enactment. A quantitative approach using a descriptive survey design was adopted, with data collected from 387 teachers (96.75% response rate). Structured questionnaires assessed teacher perceptions, instructional autonomy, and resource access. Statistical analysis revealed a mixed picture of teacher empowerment—high autonomy in instruction but limited involvement in decision-making. Resource constraints were a significant barrier, particularly in under-resourced public schools. Despite these limitations, teachers employed adaptive strategies to deliver Creative Arts instruction. The findings offer actionable insights for policymakers, teacher educators, and curriculum developers to strengthen implementation through improved resourcing and teacher support. By centering teacher perspectives, this study highlights the gap between curriculum design and classroom realities, advocating for creative arts as a vital component of holistic education in Ghana and across Africa.

Abstract

This study addresses the challenges in improving social rehabilitation services for beneficiaries through vocational training and social assistance in social rehabilitation centers. The purpose of this study is to design and propose a model for integrating vocational training and social assistance and to identify factors that support the model's implementation. The research method is quantitative, employing a survey of 41 individuals, which represents 39% of the 105 total population of social workers for social welfare service recipients across several social rehabilitation centers. The research findings reveal that vocational training and social assistance in social rehabilitation centers are currently carried out as separate programs, lacking a unified implementation framework. Although social assistants play a significant role during the mapping and evaluation stages, their involvement in the integration and execution of both services remains limited. These insights underscore the need to design a more cohesive and collaborative model that bridges vocational empowerment with social support mechanisms. The novelty of this study lies in its holistic approach, which emphasizes not only the improvement of job skills but also the strengthening of psychosocial aspects. This model is designed to enhance the effectiveness of social reintegration and independence for beneficiaries, areas that have not been widely addressed in an integrated manner in conventional social rehabilitation programs.

Abstract

The use of communication strategies (CS) is crucial when speakers encounter linguistic difficulties in conveying their ideas or intentions to their interlocutors. This study serves as a pilot investigation that lays the foundation for designing instructional approaches to communication strategies. The novelty of this research lies in its focus on integrating CS-based instruction into Japanese conversation teaching for Indonesian learners, an area that has not been previously explored. The types of communication strategies were classified based on the degree of communicative success observed in conversations involving Indonesian learners of Japanese at the basic and intermediate levels. The study employed a cross-case study method, allowing for a systematic comparison between learners at different proficiency levels. Data were collected from one basic-level and one intermediate-level learner, each engaging in a free-topic conversation with a native Japanese speaker for approximately one hour. The findings indicate that the most frequently used communication strategy at the basic level was literal translation, whereas at the intermediate level, the use of fillers was most common. This study represents an initial step toward the development of pedagogical approaches for teaching Japanese communication strategies.

Abstract

This research explores the perceptions of elementary school teacher education students regarding the role of teachers in developing meaningful learning based on local wisdom. It emphasizes the importance of preparing prospective teachers with contextual understanding and strong pedagogical skills. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, collecting primary data through semi-structured interviews with six participants selected purposively. Data analysis followed a deductive approach consisting of organizing and mapping data, breaking it down into meaningful parts, coding, interpreting patterns, and drawing conclusions. The ATLAS.ti 25 application was used to assist in mapping and organizing both primary and secondary data, including relevant lesson plans and literature. Results indicate that participants generally understand the concept of meaningful learning integrated with local wisdom, although their theoretical mastery is not yet comprehensive. They perceive the teacher's role as a facilitator, a learning designer, and a connector between students’ experiences and subject content through cultural context. Challenges identified include difficulties in recognizing relevant forms of local wisdom, limited access to supporting references, and the complexity of designing effective, thought-provoking questions for knowledge assimilation. The study concludes that meaningful learning based on local wisdom requires well-prepared prospective teachers with strong theoretical knowledge, practical pedagogical skills, and cultural awareness.
