Abstract

Introduction/Main Objectives: Music education in elementary schools is an essential component of holistic child development, contributing to students’ character formation, creativity, motor coordination, and emotional intelligence. However, the implementation of music learning is often suboptimal due to the limited availability of instructional tools and the lack of engaging teaching methods. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of using the melodica (locally known as pianika) as a concrete and accessible musical instrument to improve students' engagement and understanding in music education. Research Methods: Conducted at SD N 1 Mijen, this research uses a descriptive qualitative approach involving participatory observation, semi-structured interviews with a music teacher and six fourth-grade students, and documentation of the learning process. Finding/Results: The findings indicate that the use of the melodica increases student motivation, enhances comprehension of basic musical notation, and supports the development of performance confidence. Teachers reported that the pianika facilitates structured, step-by-step learning and provides an effective means of formative assessment through direct practice. Students responded positively, becoming more active and enthusiastic during lessons. Additionally, the instrument allowed students to express themselves musically in a collaborative and supportive environment. These results suggest that simple musical instruments like the pianika can serve not only as effective learning tools but also as media that foster emotional and social development. Conclusion: This study supports the integration of practical, engaging, and multimodal strategies in elementary music education to enhance learning outcomes and student participation.

Abstract

Introduction/Main Objectives: This study aims to develop and test the feasibility and effectiveness of DEKASI (Location Plan) learning media to improve understanding of location and direction in grade 1 elementary school students. The background of this study comes from the need for concrete and fun learning media so that students can understand the concept of space visually. The phenomenon raised in this study is the low understanding of students regarding the direction and position of objects in space. This study has an element of novelty in the development of interactive media based on location plans, presented in an interesting and easy-to-understand manner by students in early grades.  Research Methods: This study uses a descriptive method with a qualitative and quantitative approach, involving a validation process by experts and limited trials on grade 1 elementary school students. The instruments used in the study were validation sheets and student response questionnaires. Finding/Results: The validation results showed that this media was very feasible to use (90% feasibility), while student responses showed high enthusiasm and ease of understanding of the concept of direction and location. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that DEKASI media is effective and interesting to use in learning the topic of location and direction in grade 1 elementary school. The implication of this study is the need for integration of visual and interactive media in basic learning to improve students' spatial understanding.

Abstract

Introduction/Main Objectives: This study aims to explore and understand the implementation of entrepreneurship education at the elementary school level, specifically in Madrasah Ibtidaiyah. Several madrasahs in Padang City—namely MIN 1, MIN 3, and MIN 6—have been identified as reference institutions for successfully integrating entrepreneurial values into their educational practices. Research Methods: Employing a qualitative approach, this research relies on secondary qualitative data obtained through library research. The data analysis technique involves three stages: data reduction, data display, and drawing conclusions. To ensure data validity, source triangulation was applied across various references. Finding/Results: The findings reveal that the implementation of entrepreneurship education in madrasah ibtidaiyah follows three essential phases. The first is the planning stage, which includes formulating program goals, defining the vision and mission of the entrepreneurship program, selecting learning materials, and embedding entrepreneurial values into lesson plans (RPP). The second is the implementation stage, where entrepreneurial education is delivered through classroom instruction, subject integration, self-development activities, and fostering a school culture that promotes entrepreneurship. The third is the evaluation stage, focusing on assessing students’ internalization and application of entrepreneurial values through observable behaviors and participation in school activities.

Abstract

Introduction/Main Objectives: This study aims to describe the strategies used by teachers in rhythm-based drawing lessons, their implementation process in the classroom, and the impact of these strategies on elementary school students' understanding of the concept of rhythm and creativity. Furthermore, this study is expected to provide theoretical contributions as a reference in developing fine arts learning, as well as practical benefits for teachers in designing more meaningful learning. Research Methods: The research method used was a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman interactive analysis model, which includes the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Finding/Results: The results show that teachers have implemented several basic strategies, such as the use of visual examples and demonstration activities, but their implementation has not been carried out systematically and exploratory. The learning process still emphasizes the final product, so that students' understanding of the concept of rhythm and creativity has not developed optimally. Conclusion: The conclusion of this study indicates the need to strengthen learning strategies, utilize more varied visual media, and implement assessments oriented towards the concept of rhythm to improve the quality of fine arts learning in elementary schools.

Abstract

Introduction/Main Objectives: Liberica coffee (Coffea liberica W. Bull ex Hiern) is one of the leading commodities in Jambi Province, but its productivity tends to decline due to low seed quality, less fertile planting media, and suboptimal fertilization. One effort to improve seed quality is through the use of organic fertilizer bokashi lamtoro (Leucaena leucocephala L.). This study aims to determine the effect of bokashi lamtoro on the growth of Liberica coffee seedlings in nurseries and determine the best dose that provides optimal growth. Research Methods: The study was conducted in June–August 2025 at the Teaching and Research Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Jambi using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments and four replications. The treatments consisted of P0 (no bokashi + 100% inorganic fertilizer), P1 (100 g bokashi + 50% inorganic fertilizer), P2 (150 g bokashi + 50% inorganic fertilizer), P3 (200 g bokashi + 50% inorganic fertilizer), and P4 (250 g bokashi + 50% inorganic fertilizer). Finding/Results: The results showed that Treatment P4 produced the highest values for most growth parameters. However, in terms of efficiency, the dose of 200 g bokashi leucaena (lamtoro) + 50% inorganic fertilizer was considered the best dose because it was able to produce optimal seedling growth with more efficient bokashi use. Conclusion: It can be concluded that bokashi leucaena is effective in increasing the growth of Liberica coffee seedlings during the seedling phase.

Abstract

Introduction/Main Objectives: In a democratic country, general elections are a tangible manifestation of the system of government. The existence of political parties in a democratic country is considered essential for the order of modern national life, as they serve as effective means of communication, both vertically and horizontally. Background Problems: First-time voters, consisting of Indonesian citizens aged 17 or older or who are married, often show high enthusiasm for participation, even though they may not yet have a firm political preference. This makes them a group of undecided voters, as their decisions are more influenced by local political conditions than by specific ideologies. Research Methods This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach to analyze first-time voters' perceptions of political parties. A total of 84 respondents participated in data collection via questionnaire, with research variables including values, beliefs, experiences, and knowledge. The sampling technique used was purposive samplingvv. Finding/Results: The research results show that political parties have adopted Pancasila values, are trustworthy in channeling public aspirations, are actively involved in community activities, and have a good understanding of their vision, mission, and work programs. Conclusion: Young people tend to view political parties' performance positively, particularly in implementing the principles of Pancasila, which recorded the highest average score compared to other aspects. Other variables such as level of trust, political experience, and understanding of the political system also showed significant results.
