Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of the Full Day School policy on the development of religious character among fifth-grade students at SD Islam Al-Hidayah Besusu. The implementation of Full Day School, which operates from 07.00 to 15.00, provides extended learning time that integrates academic activities with routine religious practices, including dhuha prayer, zuhur prayer in congregation, daily supplications, and Qur’an recitation. This qualitative descriptive research involved the principal, classroom teachers, parents, and seven fifth-grade students as informants. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, and analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that Full Day School contributes positively to students’ religious character development. Students show increased discipline in performing worship, politeness, honesty, responsibility, and empathy toward peers. Daily routines and teacher modeling play a significant role in strengthening these values. Social activities such as class duties, teamwork, and maintaining cleanliness further enhance students’ sense of responsibility and cooperation. Although some challenges emerge, such as student fatigue due to long school hours, these do not diminish the overall positive impact when balanced with engaging learning methods and parental support at home. In conclusion, the Full Day School system effectively fosters religious character formation through structured routines, prolonged interaction with teachers, and consistent religious habituation, making it a strategic approach to strengthening student character in elementary education.

Abstract

Indonesia's Independent Curriculum emphasizes character development through the Seven Habits of Great Indonesian Children, yet implementation effectiveness in elementary schools remains underexplored. This study analyzed character building through the seven habits program, examining implementation patterns, embedded character values, barriers, and stakeholder perspectives. A qualitative case study design was employed at Sidomukti State Elementary School, involving 35 fifth and sixth-grade students, three teachers, six parents, and three students for in-depth interviews. Data collection utilized questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and systematic observations conducted between May and June 2025. Data analysis followed Miles et al.'s iterative procedures involving reduction, display, and conclusion drawing with inter-coder reliability exceeding 80%. Implementation varied significantly across habits, with community engagement demonstrating highest consistency (M=32.60) and early waking presenting greatest challenges (M=10.49). Each habit embedded distinct character values including discipline, honesty, spiritual devotion, cooperation, gratitude, and social responsibility. Four primary barriers emerged: insufficient parental capacity, pervasive technology interference disrupting sleep and social engagement, lack of formal curriculum integration, and limited educational resources. Unexpectedly, external accountability structures facilitated rather than undermined self-regulation development. Successful character formation through habit-based interventions requires comprehensive parenting education, formal curriculum integration, and whole-school technology governance policies addressing systemic barriers across multiple ecological levels.

Abstract

History education in secondary schools often relies on rote memorization of chronological facts, creating disconnection between students and their local historical realities. This study investigates how Passura' Toraja, traditional visual symbolism embedded in Toraja material culture, can be integrated into history learning to create culturally-grounded educational experiences. Employing qualitative descriptive design, this research examined integration practices at SMAN 5 Tana Toraja through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews with three history teachers, 35 students, and two cultural experts, and document analysis over three months. Data were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis. Four key dimensions emerged: teachers possessed comprehensive cultural understanding enhanced through community collaboration; pedagogical integration occurred through multiple strategies including visual media, group discussions, and project-based learning; students demonstrated heightened engagement (91%) and strengthened cultural identity; and implementation success depended on facilitating factors such as teacher cultural competence while navigating constraints including limited instructional time. Findings demonstrate that Passura' functions as foundational framework for reconceptualizing history education, supporting culturally responsive pedagogy theory and place-based education scholarship. The research contributes practical models for integrating indigenous visual symbols into formal curriculum while addressing assessment challenges and sustainability concerns. Results indicate that culturally-grounded history education simultaneously advances academic objectives and cultural preservation, challenging dichotomies between academic rigor and cultural responsiveness in pluralistic educational contexts.

Abstract

This quasi-experimental study examined the effect of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) learning model supported by monopoly learning media on fourth-grade students' learning interest in IPAS (Science and Social studies) subjects. Forty-four students at MI Muhammadiyah Al-Haq Palu were purposively selected based on low learning interest indicators and randomly assigned to experimental (n=22) and control (n=22) groups. The experimental group received TGT instruction with monopoly games, while the control group experienced conventional lecture-based teaching. A validated 20-item Guttman scale questionnaire measured learning interest before and after the two-session intervention. Data analysis employed paired samples t-tests, independent samples t-tests, normalized gain calculations, and Cohen's d effect size. Results revealed significant learning interest improvements in both groups (p < 0.001), with the experimental group demonstrating substantially greater gains (mean increase = 1.36, N-gain = 0.37) compared to the control group (mean increase = 0.91, N-gain = 0.18). The independent samples t-test confirmed significant differences between groups (p < 0.001, t = 3.954), with a large effect size (Cohen's d = 0.82). These findings indicate that TGT supported by monopoly media significantly and practically enhances elementary students' learning interest, offering educators an accessible, evidence-based strategy for improving affective outcomes in integrated science education.

Abstract

Elementary students frequently struggle with abstract scientific concepts due to traditional pedagogical approaches lacking contextual relevance and cultural meaningfulness. This pre-experimental study employed a one-group pretest-posttest design involving 30 fifth-grade students at SDN 162 Warung Jambu who studied ecosystem harmony through the RADEC (Read, Answer, Discuss, Explain, Create) learning model integrated with an ethnoscience approach. Data were collected using a validated conceptual mastery instrument measuring Bloom's six cognitive levels, analyzed through descriptive statistics, normalized gain calculations, and paired-sample t-tests. The intervention produced significant improvements, with average scores increasing from 58.67% (moderate category) to 84.33% (very high category), yielding an N-Gain of 0.62 (moderate category) and highly significant statistical results (t = 21.89, p < 0.001). Students achieving the Minimum Completion Criteria increased from 26.67% to 93.33%. The most substantial gains emerged at higher-order thinking levels: analyzing (31.00% improvement) and evaluating (28.00% improvement), demonstrating the model's effectiveness in developing sophisticated scientific reasoning.  The integration of RADEC and ethnoscience systematically develops conceptual mastery by connecting scientific principles with local cultural knowledge and traditional practices, facilitating deep, contextual understanding. This culturally responsive approach simultaneously achieves cognitive rigor and educational equity, challenging conventional assumptions about elementary students' cognitive capacities while honoring indigenous knowledge systems within formal science education.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of animated videos and Quizizz on student learning outcomes in Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) among fourth-grade elementary students. A quasi-experimental design with nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest was employed, involving 40 students at SD Negeri 8 Mamboro divided into experimental (n=20) and control (n=20) groups. The experimental group received instruction through animated videos and Quizizz, while the control group continued with conventional methods over three weeks. Data were collected using validated achievement tests (Cronbach's α = 0.767) and analyzed through Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon Signed-Rank tests. Results revealed significant differences between groups, with the experimental group achieving superior posttest performance (M = 76.75, SD = 11.154) compared to controls (M = 65.00, SD = 15.728), confirmed by Mann-Whitney U test (U = 104.000, p = 0.009). Normalized gain analysis demonstrated moderate effectiveness for the experimental group (N-Gain = 0.4876) versus low effectiveness for controls (N-Gain = 0.2688). Completion rates improved substantially from 5% to 60% in the experimental group, compared to 10% to 25% in controls. These findings support cognitive theory of multimedia learning and self-determination theory, demonstrating that integrated implementation of animated videos and Quizizz significantly enhances elementary science learning outcomes through dual-channel information processing and gamified assessment that sustains motivation and engagement.

Abstract

Environmental awareness among elementary students remains inadequate despite its critical importance for sustainable development. This qualitative case study investigated poster media implementation to foster environmental awareness at SD Inpres 3 Talise, examining implementation processes, behavioral changes, and obstacles encountered by educators. Twenty-four students from grades III, IV, and V, three homeroom teachers, and the school principal participated. Data were collected through systematic observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentary evidence, analyzed using the Miles and Huberman framework with triangulation for validity. Results revealed that strategically positioned posters combined with peer modeling effectively enhanced environmental awareness, with fifth-grade students demonstrating autonomous environmental behaviors, fourth-grade students showing consistent conduct requiring occasional reinforcement, and third-grade students displaying gradual improvements with substantial teacher guidance. Unexpected findings included spontaneous peer mentoring dynamics and location-dependent poster effectiveness. Seven implementation obstacles emerged: inconsistent student attention, attitude-behavior gaps, novelty effects, suboptimal placement, resource limitations, inadequate pedagogical integration, and limited teacher understanding of visual media pedagogy. Findings align with Mayer's Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning, Bandura's Social Learning Theory, and Ajzen's Theory of Planned Behavior, demonstrating that posters function optimally as pedagogically integrated tools requiring strategic placement, content refreshment, and instructional reinforcement rather than passive displays. This study contributes practical insights for implementing cost-effective visual media interventions in resource-constrained educational settings.

Abstract

Reading delay in subject-specific instructional contexts remains an underexplored phenomenon in early literacy research, particularly within Civics learning. This study aimed to analyze the causal factors underlying reading delays among second-grade elementary school students and to identify effective teacher strategies to address them. A descriptive qualitative design was employed, with three purposively selected second-grade students at Al Madina Elementary School, Purworejo, Indonesia, serving as research subjects. Data were collected through structured observation, structured interviews, and documentation over two months and analyzed using Miles et al.'s inductive thematic analysis framework. The findings reveal a dual-factor structure: all three subjects exhibited letter-recognition deficits, while differing in primary causal pathways—intellectual (slow learner profile) or environmental (absent parental support, low motivation). Two unexpected findings emerged: one subject's motivational withdrawal proved relationally contingent rather than dispositionally fixed, and another expressed social shame about reading inability—an affective barrier not previously documented in Civics-specific research. The teacher implemented a four-week scaffolded intervention progressing from phonological drills to manipulative letter-card tasks, which increased on-task engagement across all subjects. This study contributes subject-specific qualitative evidence of reading delay within Civics instruction and highlights curriculum textbook design as a structural barrier warranting further scholarly attention.

Abstract

The decline in student discipline in elementary schools, exacerbated by globalization and technological advancement, necessitates effective classroom management strategies that foster intrinsic behavioral regulation rather than external compliance. This study examined classroom management strategies employed by fourth-grade teachers at SDN Bambalemo to cultivate student discipline and identified factors influencing their implementation. A qualitative descriptive design was employed, with data collected through systematic observations, in-depth interviews with four teachers (coded A1-A4), and documentation analysis. Data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman's interactive model, incorporating triangulation to ensure validity. Three primary strategies emerged: creating positive learning climates through warm teacher-student relationships and consistent modeling; organizing adaptive learning spaces that promote cooperation and ownership; and managing interactive teaching-learning processes through two-way communication and constructive feedback. Internal factors—including teacher personality, professional awareness, motivation, and growth mindset—and external factors—encompassing family support, school regulations, and community environments—significantly influenced strategy effectiveness. An unexpected finding revealed students spontaneously maintained classroom tidiness, indicating internalized responsibility. Student discipline develops through ecological processes involving habituation, role modeling, and multi-stakeholder collaboration rather than authoritarian control. The findings challenge punitive approaches while supporting relationship-based pedagogies that foster self-regulation, providing empirical foundations for character-based classroom management in elementary education.

Abstract

The Independent Curriculum represents Indonesia's response to pandemic-induced learning disruptions, emphasizing learner-centered pedagogy and differentiated instruction. However, implementation at specific grade levels, particularly fourth grade as a critical transition point, remains insufficiently documented. This study examined Independent Curriculum implementation in fourth grade at SD Inpres 1 Tondo, focusing on learning planning, instructional implementation, and assessment practices. A qualitative descriptive case study was conducted over three months (August-October 2025) with one purposively selected fourth-grade teacher. Data were collected through non-participant classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis of teaching modules and assessment instruments. Data analysis employed Miles et al.'s interactive model involving data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. Findings revealed comprehensive teacher understanding of curriculum principles and systematic learning planning incorporating diagnostic assessments and differentiated strategies. Implementation demonstrated student-centered approaches and varied media utilization. However, persistent challenges emerged including limited student engagement during transition periods, inadequate infrastructure constraining material distribution, textbook variation complicating delivery, insufficient family support, and assessment complexity in holistic evaluation. Teacher adaptation of standardized instruments reflected contextual responsiveness but raised standardization concerns. Independent Curriculum implementation quality depends on dynamic interactions among teacher competence, institutional resources, family involvement, and systemic support. Successful realization requires comprehensive ecosystem approaches addressing professional development, infrastructure investment, parent engagement, and assessment literacy simultaneously.
