Abstract

This innovative study investigates the synergy between digital gamification and kinesthetic pedagogy through the hybrid implementation of the educational game "Cooking Crazy Restaurant" and physical cooking practice in Latiffa Az-Zahra Kindergarten. With a mixed-methods experimental design integrating quantitative (gameplay scores, time-on-task metrics) and qualitative (semi-structured interviews, participant observation) analyses, the study uncovers the bidirectional learning transfer mechanisms between virtual competencies and real-world skills. Empirical data show a 72% increase in procedural accuracy in measuring ingredients, a 41% decrease in error rate in hygiene techniques, and an 88% achievement in retention of nutritional concepts after 8 weeks of intervention. Thematic analysis identified three pillars of success: (1) a dynamic difficulty adjustment system that creates an optimal flow state for beginners, (2) a haptic-visual synchronization mechanism that strengthens sensorimotor connections, and (3) a social learning scaffolding architecture through the co-op challenges feature. The implementation of the Phygital Pedagogy Framework model not only increased cooking self-efficacy (+54 points on the Bandura scale) but also spurred the development of 21st century skills such as critical sequencing and resource management. This finding revolutionizes the early childhood education paradigm by proving that game-technology integration is not just an entertainment tool, but a cognitive amplifier that can transform passive learning into experiential mastery.

Abstract

The purpose of the study: To analyze the effect of the availability of internet access on student participation in online learning in Aceh Province. The quantitative method was utilized, and data were collected using a survey method on 400 high school students in different provinces. Internet access availability, according to the findings of the analysis, has a significant positive effect on student participation in online learning (p <0.05). In this case a beta (β1) value of 0.65 implies that for every one unit increase in internet access availability, the model predicts a 0.65 unit increase in student participation. The R² = 0.42 means that the availability of internet access accounts for 42% of the variation in student participation. Moreover, students who are using internet greater than 10 Mbps participated more on comparison to students on internet between 1-10 Mbps or below 1 Mbps. This research further emphasizes the role of parental encouragement and schools' preparedness in determining student participation. The results point to the need for more initiatives to scale up internet access and speed in Aceh Province, particularly in rural and isolated regions, to support more equitable education outcomes. The results of this study are expected to be useful for policy makers in formulating policies and programs to improve internet access and quality of education in Aceh.Index Terms—Internet Access, Quality of Education, Aceh

Abstract

The concept of maps in geography reflects the desire of humanity to find out about the earth in space, orientation, physically and symbolically. As much as you try to innovate in teaching, the ability to connect theory with real world experiences students are often a struggle. Research and Development (R&D) In this study using Borg and Gall models to produce GPS -based learning media for students' understanding of the map concept. 35 students in the eighth grade, we have observed at SMP 2 Idi Timur, East Aceh facing clear challenges through map induction using traditional methods. The media produced include interactive maps, coordinate reading exercises, and activities to find real world places that make concrete geographical theory. Expert validation scores have above 90 (very valid categories), while student assessment increases (30-35%) from pretest results to post-test. GPS -based media does not only work cognitively; It works experimentally to provide significant learning, a good type of student finds their daily lives. This strategy harmonized theory with practice in the context of the independent curriculum framework, with students as active translators from geographical information instead of passive consumers. This study formulated a model where programming is not only a technical tool but also a link that connects the digital world with spatial structured reality, which ultimately contributes to sustainable development from the geographical literacy of high school students.

Abstract

This experimental study evaluated the effectiveness of Roblox game design based on local Indonesian values in strengthening character education for children aged 9-12 years through a mixed-methods approach. Involving 320 participants from 15 schools in Aceh Province, this study measured behavioral changes using the Moral Competence Game Scale (MCGS-α=0.87) and analyzed 1,250 transcripts of game interactions over a 12-week period. Quantitative results showed a significant increase in prosocial behavior (42%, p<0.01) and conflict resolution competence (d=0.63), while qualitative analysis revealed the dominance of collaborative communication patterns (78%) in the avatar rescue scenario. The integration of local wisdom such as mutual cooperation simulations in shared resource management mechanics, adaptation of local Acehnese games, and deliberation-based narratives were shown to increase the retention of justice values by 28% compared to generic content. The main challenges included exposure to 23% of morally ambiguous content and technostress in 65% of parents, which were addressed through the Onion-Layer Protection model combined with AI moderation and community reporting. The research implications resulted in Ethical Design Guidelines for local game developers that include technical parameters such as 30% memory usage optimization with 1:1 trim sheet technique and 15% FPS increase through adaptive LOD system.

Abstract

Improving the quality of learning in mechanical engineering is a major challenge in the field of mechanical engineering, especially in understanding complex concepts such as statics and dynamics. This study aims to improve the effectiveness of the use of computer simulation and animation as an innovative learning tool in mechanical engineering. This study used a mixed approach (mixed methods) with a quasi-experimental design involving 94 mechanical engineering students from three universities in Indonesia who were divided into an experimental group using simulation and animation modules (n=50) and a control group using conventional methods (n=50). The results showed that the use of this technology increased students' understanding by 25% compared to 10% in the traditional method, with a significant difference in the post-test (t(92)=3.87, p=0.0002, Cohen's d=0.79). The experimental group also reported a higher level of engagement (85% vs 62%) and a significant reduction in cognitive load (NASA-TLX: 32.4 vs 45.7). Qualitative analysis revealed that visualization helped students connect theory with practical applications, in line with the principles of Cognitive Load Theory and Cognitive-Affective Learning Theory with Media. Although effective, the study identified implementation challenges such as software development costs, educator training needs, and disparities in technology access across institutions in Indonesia. The study concluded that computer simulation and animation have transformative potential to improve the quality of mechanical engineering education, with recommendations for future development through the integration of immersive technologies such as Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality that support the Conceive-Design-Implement-Operate (CDIO) approach in preparing the workforce to face the demands of the Industrial Revolution 4.0.
