Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji dan menganalisis pengaruh langsung dan tidak langsung efikasi diri dan self-regulated learning terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa dengan keterlibatan siswa sebagai variabel mediasi. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan desain kausalitas. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan proportional random sampling dengan jumlah sampel 81 siswa kelas X SMA Negeri 1 Kroya, Kabupaten Cilacap. Data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner dan dianalisis menggunakan analisis deskriptif serta Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) dengan perangkat lunak WarpPLS 8.0. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa efikasi diri dan self-regulated learning berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis. Keterlibatan siswa juga berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis serta dimediasi oleh efikasi diri, tetapi tidak memediasi pengaruh self-regulated learning. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan peningkatan keterlibatan siswa dalam proses pembelajaran untuk mengoptimalkan berpikir kritis. Mediation of student engagement in influencing self-efficacy and self-regulated learning on critical thinking skills Abstract: This study aims to examine and analyze the direct and indirect effects of self-efficacy and self-regulated learning on students' critical thinking skills, with student engagement as a mediating variable. This research employs a quantitative approach with a causal design. The sampling technique used was proportional random sampling, with a total of 81 tenth-grade students from SMA Negeri 1 Kroya, Cilacap Regency. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive analysis and Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with WarpPLS 8.0 software. The results indicate that self-efficacy and self-regulated learning have a positive and significant effect on critical thinking skills. Student engagement also significantly affects critical thinking skills and mediates the relationship between self-efficacy and critical thinking but does not mediate the effect of self-regulated learning. This study suggests enhancing student engagement in the learning process to optimize critical thinking development.

Abstract

Vocabulary is the most crucial component for EFL learners in learning English because it is a key to acquiring and improving language skills. Nevertheless, to master vocabulary, the EFL learners need great effort. Therefore, this study aims to identify the effectiveness of spelling bee games in boosting vocabulary mastery of Gen Z students. This study employed a pre-experimental design with one group pre-test and post-test. The sample consisted of 32 students from class VII G, a show was selected purposively. The data collection involved pre-test and post-test. The data were analyzed using a parametric test (paired-sample test) assisted by SPSS 26. The result of this study finds that the significance of 2-tailed is lower than (<) 0.05, which reveals that spelling bee as a conventional game is still statistically effective in elevating Gen Z’ English vocabulary. Thus, conventional games can still be maintained to teach Gen Z students vocabulary, especially in teaching form (spelling) and use (constructing sentences).

Abstract

This study aims to estimate item parameters in Item Response Theory (IRT) using the Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method in the context of Islamic schools in Pekalongan Regency/City, where small sample sizes pose a challenge. Unlike conventional methods such as maximum likelihood estimation, which tend to yield biased results with limited data, Bayesian MCMC incorporates prior knowledge and contextual information to improve estimation accuracy. Simulated datasets with varying sample sizes (30, 100, 300, 1000) and item numbers (10, 25, 30, 40) were used to compare the performance of Bayesian MCMC with traditional IRT methods. The results show that Bayesian MCMC produces more stable and accurate estimates, particularly in small-sample conditions. These findings suggest that Bayesian approaches are effective for psychometric analysis in Islamic education settings. The study concludes that Bayesian MCMC is a valuable method for improving the robustness of item parameter estimation in limited-data contexts.

Abstract

This study aims to develop and evaluate a digital literacy instrument for students in Informatics Engineering Education using a bifactor model. The instrument is designed around three primary dimensions: Digital Professional Competency, Integration of Technology in Teaching, and Collaboration and Digital Media Literacy. The results indicate that the general factor (G) makes a dominant contribution, accounting for 85.87% of the total explained variance, while the contributions of the specific factors were comparatively low: 5.30% for Digital Professional Competency, 2.03% for Integration of Technology in Teaching, and 6.81% for Collaboration and Digital Media Literacy. This finding suggests that the instrument is more effective at measuring digital literacy as a holistic competency rather than its specific dimensions. However, the low contribution from the specific dimensions highlights the need to revise certain items to enhance their measurement sensitivity and accuracy. This study provides a significant contribution to the development of valid and reliable digital literacy instruments capable of supporting evidence-based decision-making in technology-enhanced education.
