Abstract

Social and emotional skills in elementary school students are often neglected in Physical Education, Sports, and Health subjects, because learning focuses more on motoric aspects. As a result, many students still have difficulty working together, regulating emotions, and maintaining sportsmanship when participating in physical activities. Different from previous studies that focused on improving motoric skills, this study focuses on social and emotional skills through the application of game-based learning in Physical Education, Sports, and Health. The purpose of this study is to describe the process of implementing game-based learning in learning to throw and catch a ball and its impact on the social and emotional skills of elementary school students. A descriptive qualitative approach was used in this study, with data collection techniques in the form of observation, interviews, and documentation. The subjects were fourth-grade students of SDN 2 Tente. The results showed that the application of game-based learning created an active, fun, and collaborative learning atmosphere. Active student participation increased from 63,3% to 93,3%, while the number of students who are easily angered decreased from 7 to 2 people, indicating a decrease in irritability levels of 71,4%. Improved social skills are evident in the ability to work together, communicate, and empathize, while improved emotional skills are evident in students' ability to manage emotions, accept defeat with sportsmanship, and support each other within the group. The teacher's role as a facilitator has proven crucial in guiding students in understanding character values ​​such as sportsmanship, empathy, and cooperation. Thus, game-based learning is not only effective in improving motor skills but also contributes significantly to improving students' social and emotional skills while presenting an innovative approach to Physical Education, Sports, and Health that integrates pedagogical and psychological aspects.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an Interactive E-Module based on the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) learning model and to test its validity, practicality, and effectiveness in improving elementary students’ understanding of social studies concepts. The study is motivated by the limited use of interactive learning media in social studies, which causes students to memorize facts rather than comprehend concepts deeply, leading to low motivation, limited engagement, and weak critical thinking skills. The research employs the Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, encompassing the stages of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The subjects involved fifth-grade students of SDN 02 Percontohan and SDN 04 Garegeh, social studies teachers, and expert validators in material, media, and language. Data were collected through observations, questionnaires, interviews, tests, and documentation, and analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The results indicate that the Interactive E-Module achieved a very valid category with an average expert validation score of 4.56. The practicality assessment showed very positive responses from teachers (90.5%) and students (90.8%). Moreover, its effectiveness was evidenced by a significant improvement in conceptual understanding, with an average N-Gain score of 0.87 (high category). The TGT-based Interactive E-Module offers a novel contribution by integrating cooperative competition into digital learning media, enhancing student motivation and interaction beyond conventional e-modules. Practically, this module can be adapted for other subjects or educational levels as an innovative tool to promote active, engaging, and concept-oriented learning in elementary education.

Abstract

The limited engagement of students in religious practices and the dominance of normative, dogmatic character education hinder the reflective internalization of religious values. This study explores the integration of prophetic pedagogy within a Didactical Design Research (DDR) framework to foster religious attitudes among elementary school students. Conducted over 16 weeks in a fifth-grade class at SDN Babakan Jawa I, Majalengka, the study involved 20 students and two teachers. The research identified three main learning obstacles—ontogenic, epistemological, and didactic—which were addressed through tailored didactical interventions such as structured reflection journals, role-playing, contextualized examples, scaffolded exercises, and student-centered learning. Findings show that these strategies significantly improved students’ moral reasoning, reflective thinking, empathy, and the application of religious values in real-life contexts. The study demonstrates that prophetic pedagogy, when implemented through DDR, can create transformative, contextual, and value-oriented learning experiences. This approach contributes a practical model for character education rooted in reflective religious understanding.

Abstract

Indonesian has a strategic role in the world of education as the main language of instruction as well as a means of developing students' cognitive and character. However, the reality at SDN Teta, Lambitu District, shows that students' mastery of Indonesian is still low due to the dominant use of Lambitu and Bima languages ​​in daily interactions. This study aims to analyze the impact of the use of regional languages ​​on mastery of Indonesian language material and the multilingual learning strategies implemented by teachers. The research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques in the form of interviews, observations, documentation studies, and focus group discussions (FGD). The  findings reveal that local languages play a positive role in improving students’ mastery of the Indonesian language subject at SDN Teta. The results of the study showed that students had difficulty understanding academic vocabulary, sentence structure, and Indonesian pronunciation, but the use of regional languages ​​actually helped understanding the material through translanguaging and code switching strategies. Teachers utilize a contextual approach based on local culture so that students are more active and involved in learning. In addition, parental support and school policies also play a role in optimizing bilingual strategies in the classroom. In conclusion, regional languages ​​play a dual role, namely as an obstacle because they give rise to linguistic interference, but at the same time, they are an effective bridge towards mastering Indonesian. This study emphasizes the importance of an integrative, contextual, and inclusive multilingual approach in improving the quality of Indonesian language learning in multilingual areas.

Abstract

The background of this research stems from the importance of mastering critical thinking skills from the elementary school level, especially in the development of science and technology. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of the Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) learning model on students’ critical thinking skills in IPAS learning for fourth-grade students at SDN Inpres Leu. This study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a nonequivalent control group design. The research subjects were all 36 fourth-grade students of SDN Inpres Leu, consisting of 18 students in the experimental class and 18 students in the control class. The instrument used was an open-ended test designed to measure students’ critical thinking skills. The data analysis technique was carried out through several stages, including prerequisite tests such as normality and homogeneity tests, followed by hypothesis testing using the independent sample t-test. The results of the analysis showed a significance value (2-tailed) of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating that the null hypothesis (H₀) was rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Hₐ) was accepted. Thus, there is a significant effect of using the CIRC learning model on improving the critical thinking skills of fourth-grade students. These findings suggest that the implementation of the CIRC learning model can serve as an innovative instructional strategy to enhance the quality of the teaching and learning process, particularly in IPAS learning at the elementary school level.
