Abstract

This study aims to systematically examine the integration of the Reading Workshop model and the Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) approach in enhancing reading literacy among elementary school students. Utilizing the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this research analyzed seven peer-reviewed articles published between 2019 and 2024 that focused on the development of reading literacy in primary education settings. The findings reveal that the Reading Workshop model, when combined with SRL strategies, significantly improves students' reading comprehension, autonomy, and motivation to read. This integrative approach supports students in setting reading goals, monitoring their comprehension, and reflecting on their reading practices. Additionally, the literature indicates that the incorporation of digital media, culturally responsive materials, and differentiated instruction further enhances literacy outcomes. Particularly, strategies such as Teaching at the Right Level (TaRL) enable teachers to tailor reading instruction to students’ actual reading levels, addressing diverse learning needs. In the context of the Merdeka Curriculum in Indonesia, which promotes personalized and inclusive education, the application of SRL-based Reading Workshop becomes highly relevant. Moreover, embedding local cultural values within reading materials fosters a deeper emotional connection and cultural awareness among students, enriching their overall literacy experience. The review concludes that an integrative literacy instruction model combining Reading Workshop and SRL, enriched by digital tools and contextualized content, is effective in addressing the challenges of reading literacy in elementary education. Future studies are encouraged to develop and empirically test instructional designs that operationalize this integration in classroom settings.

Abstract

Student engagement in learning represents a critical indicator of educational quality, yet many Islamic Religious Education programs continue to struggle with low participation rates and passive learning environments. This study investigated the effectiveness of the AIR (Auditory, Intellectual, and Repetition) learning model in enhancing student learning engagement, specifically focusing on students' ability to express ideas during classroom activities. A quasi-experimental design with posttest-only control group was employed involving 62 Grade XI students at SMK Nurul Falah Pugung, Indonesia. Participants were randomly assigned to experimental (n=31) and control (n=31) groups, receiving AIR model instruction and conventional direct instruction respectively. Learning engagement was measured using a validated questionnaire focusing on the "expressing ideas" indicator, demonstrating acceptable reliability (Cronbach's α = 0.701). Data analysis included normality and homogeneity testing followed by independent samples t-test. The experimental group demonstrated significantly higher learning engagement scores (M = 23.45, SD = 3.12) compared to the control group (M = 20.87, SD = 2.98). Statistical analysis revealed significant differences between groups (t(60) = 3.456, p = 0.011 < 0.05) with a large effect size (Cohen's d = 0.89), indicating both statistical and practical significance of the intervention. The AIR learning model effectively enhances student engagement by integrating auditory, intellectual, and repetition components that address behavioral, cognitive, and emotional engagement dimensions. The findings contribute to educational theory by validating innovative pedagogical approaches in religious education contexts and provide practical frameworks for transforming passive learning environments into interactive, student-centered experiences that prepare students for contemporary educational and workplace demands.

Abstract

Phoneme pronunciation disorder of the phoneme /r/ is one of the complex articulation problems and is often experienced by individuals across various age groups. This study aims to analyze the pronunciation disorder of the phoneme /r/ in 19-year-old individuals from a neurolinguistic perspective using a qualitative method. This case study utilizes direct observation and in-depth interviews as data collection techniques to understand articulation patterns, subjective experiences, and the factors influencing the disorder. The results show that the subject experienced distortion of the phoneme /r/, which appeared as a replacement with the phoneme /w/ or the loss of the /r/ sound in various word positions, especially in the initial and middle positions. Neurological activities that affect articulatory motor coordination play an important role in this disorder, further influenced by psychosocial factors such as social anxiety and environmental reactions. The subject also reported frustration and decreased self-confidence that impacted social interaction and motivation in therapy. These findings confirm the need for a therapeutic approach that integrates neurolinguistic stimulation and psychosocial support to improve the articulation function of the phoneme /r/. This study makes an important contribution to the development of neurolinguistic theory and speech therapy practice with a holistic approach that considers neurological, linguistic, and social aspects. Thus, the results of this study can serve as a basis for the development of more effective interventions to overcome /r/ phoneme pronunciation disorders in late adolescence.

Abstract

Learning Pancasila Education in elementary schools has an important role in instilling national values from an early age. However, in practice, this learning is still dominated by conventional methods that do not associate the material with the local culture. One of the cultural potentials that can be integrated into learning is the art of ludruk, which is full of Pancasila values such as mutual cooperation, deliberation, and justice. This study aims to analyze the need for the development of textbooks based on ludruk culture to increase the effectiveness of Pancasila Education learning in elementary schools. This study uses a qualitative method with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and documentation studies. The research was conducted at SDN Tambak Wedi 508 Surabaya with 2 Pancasila Education teachers, 1 principal, and 40 students from grades IV and V as participants. The results of the study show that learning is still centered on standard textbooks without the integration of local culture. Teachers face limitations in relevant teaching materials, while students have difficulty understanding the values of Pancasila concretely. However, observations indicate that student engagement significantly improves when ludruk cultural elements are introduced, especially in discussions related to mutual cooperation and justice. In conclusion, the development of ludruk-based textbooks is very necessary to increase students' understanding of Pancasila values while preserving local culture. The recommended textbook should be contextual, interactive, and designed as a supplemental resource that aligns with the current elementary curriculum.

Abstract

Mathematics education faces significant challenges among slow learner students, with only 30% mastering basic addition operations in special schools. This study investigated the effectiveness of contextual-based concrete visual stamp game media on improving integer addition skills among slow learner students in junior high school. A single-subject research design with A-B-A model was employed involving two seventh-grade male slow learner students (IQ 70-90) from SMP Negeri 1 Teluk Pandan. The study consisted of three phases: baseline A1 (3 sessions), intervention B (4 sessions using stamp game media), and baseline A2 (3 sessions). Data were collected through objective tests and analyzed using visual graph analysis techniques, including within-condition and between-condition analyses. Both subjects demonstrated substantial improvements during the intervention phase. Subject ADR's performance increased from a baseline mean of 52% to 81% during intervention, while Subject MIP improved from 46.67% to 81%. The percentage of non-overlapping data showed 0% overlap between baseline A1 and intervention phases, indicating strong treatment effectiveness. Maintenance phase results revealed differential retention patterns, with Subject ADR maintaining scores above baseline levels (75.67%) and Subject MIP showing continued improvement (87.67%). Contextual-based concrete visual stamp game media significantly enhances integer addition skills among slow learner students. The intervention's effectiveness is attributed to its concrete nature, which facilitates the transition from concrete to abstract thinking consistent with constructivist learning principles. These findings support the integration of manipulative tools in inclusive mathematics education for students with diverse learning needs.

Abstract

Reading comprehension is a crucial skill in primary education, yet many students—especially those with learning difficulties—struggle to achieve mastery. Traditional, lecture-based instruction often fails to address their diverse cognitive and motivational needs. This study aims to improve reading comprehension among fifth-grade students with learning difficulties through the implementation of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model. Employing a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach with three iterative cycles, the research was conducted at SDN Bukit Makmur, East Kutai, involving 20 students. Data collection involved observations, pre- and post-tests, and documentation. Instructional interventions were designed to align with the phases of PBL, encouraging students to engage in contextual problem-solving and collaborative learning. The findings demonstrated progressive improvements across all three cycles. Student activity scores increased from an average of 2.88 to 3.67, while teacher activity scores improved from 3.25 to 3.75. Notably, post-test results revealed an increase in mastery from 15% to 100%, with all five students identified as having learning difficulties successfully achieving competency. These results indicate that the PBL model effectively fosters both cognitive engagement and academic achievement. The study underscores the importance of reflective, student-centered instruction in supporting inclusive literacy development and offers practical insights for educators seeking to address comprehension gaps in diverse classroom settings.

Abstract

This qualitative research explores the impact of storytelling activities on early literacy development among children aged 5–6 years at TK Islam Al Baqy, Gresik. Storytelling, as an interactive pedagogical tool, is increasingly recognized for its potential to foster foundational literacy skills in early childhood education. The study aimed to examine how structured storytelling sessions contribute to children’s listening, vocabulary, verbal expression, and comprehension abilities. Data were collected through classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with teachers and parents, and were analyzed thematically. The study involved 20 children and 4 teachers as participants. Findings indicate that storytelling significantly enhanced children's attentiveness, language confidence, and narrative thinking. Children engaged actively during storytelling sessions and demonstrated improved ability to retell stories, respond verbally, and use newly introduced vocabulary in daily communication. Moreover, storytelling facilitated socio-emotional development by nurturing empathy, imagination, and cooperative interaction among peers. Teachers reported that students became more motivated and expressive in classroom activities after consistent exposure to storytelling. The study concludes that storytelling is an effective, accessible, and developmentally appropriate method for promoting literacy in early learners. Despite its limited scope—focused on one school and a short observation period—this research provides empirical insights into the pedagogical integration of storytelling. It recommends wider adoption of storytelling in early childhood curricula and further investigation into its long-term effects. This study contributes to the growing body of knowledge on narrative-based learning and reinforces storytelling’s role as a vital strategy for fostering early literacy and holistic development in young children.
