Abstract

The primary objective of this research is to assess Learners' Autonomy by implementing Experiential Learning in a role-play activity among class 8 elementary students at a private-sector English Medium School. Experiential Learning, which is a learner-friendly approach, has not been extensively explored at the fundamental level. However, its importance, often referred to as "learning by doing" or "hands-on approaches," has been acknowledged in various writings and research. Over time, Experiential Learning has gained popularity among adult learners and is considered crucial in educational institutions. To conduct this study, a thorough review of the literature was conducted, leading to the development of a hypothesis. The research strategy involved the use of a survey, and the study's population comprised students from elementary private schools in Karachi. A straightforward random sampling design was adopted, resulting in a sample size of 118 students as participants. For data collection, two questionnaires were employed: the Experiential Learning Scale (ELS) by Clem and Beasley, and the Learner Autonomous Scale (LAS) by Fletcher and Averill. The data was then analyzed using SPSS, with inferential statistics, correlation, and linear regression methods. The findings revealed a strong correlation between the variables (EL) and (LA). Moreover, at a significance level of 0.05, the overall relationship between all Experiential Learning and Learner Autonomous categories was determined to be moderate. Based on the overall linear regression model, instructors and practitioners are encouraged to incorporate Experiential Learning into their teaching methodologies. Additionally, the study suggests further exploration of the concept of Autonomous Learning through this process, and proposes a comparative study to assess how this approach influences students' engagement in various curricula.

Abstract

This research aimed to investigate how the demonstration method influences the academic performance of primary school students in physical and health education in Kwara State, Nigeria. The study followed a quasi-experimental design, involving 79 pupils from two public primary schools. The research utilized the 'Physical and Health Education Achievement Test (PHEAT)' as the assessment tool, which was carefully validated and tested for its reliability, showing a reliability index of 0.76 using the test-retest method. Two hypotheses were formulated and examined using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). The results of the study revealed a significant positive impact of the demonstration method on pupils' academic achievement in Physical and Health Education. However, when considering gender as a factor, the interaction between treatment and gender did not show a significant effect on pupils' academic achievement in the same subject. In conclusion, the findings suggest that using the demonstration method can enhance the academic achievement of primary school pupils in physical and health education, irrespective of their gender. Based on these results, it is recommended that teachers receive training in utilizing the demonstration method while teaching Physical and Health Education.

Abstract

Mathematical communication skills are of utmost importance for students to effectively solve mathematical problems. However, the evidence suggests that elementary school students still exhibit very low levels of communication skills. Communication skills are influenced significantly by various factors, and one of these factors is learning motivation. This study aims to describe and analyze the mathematical communication abilities of students in the topic of linear equations of two variables, taking into account their learning motivation based on Maslow's theory. The research design employed in this study is descriptive qualitative. The data collection instruments consist of written tests on the topic of a two-variable linear equation system, non-test instruments in the form of questionnaires to assess students' learning motivation based on Maslow's theory, and semi-structured interview guidelines. The subjects of the study were fifth-grade students at SDN Kedungsari Purwerejo, and a sample of six students was selected using purposive sampling. The data analysis technique involved data reduction, data visualization, and drawing conclusions. The research findings indicate that students who fulfill all aspects of Maslow's theoretical hierarchy exhibit higher learning motivation. This is evident in the differences observed in their responses to the questions. Students who fulfill all aspects of Maslow's theoretical hierarchy put in more effort to provide detailed and clear answers, while students who only fulfill some aspects of Maslow's theoretical hierarchy tend to answer questions more straightforwardly without providing a more elaborate explanation.

Abstract

Writing skill is one of the four language proficiency aspects that students need to possess. However, some previous studies have revealed that students' narrative writing ability is still low. One of the efforts that can be made to address this issue is by using animation as a learning medium. This research aims to examine the extent of the influence of using animation as a learning medium on the narrative writing skill of elementary school students. This study employs a quantitative research method with a quasi-experimental design using the non-equivalent control group design. The research was conducted at SDN Cijati 1 Majalengka. The sample of the study consists of 50 respondents from Grade V students. The research instrument used is a written test through a post-test, and the data analysis technique used is quantitative descriptive analysis. The results of this research show that the narrative writing skill of students in the class that used animation as a learning medium is better than the class that did not use animation as a learning medium. Therefore, animation as a learning medium has a significant effect on developing students' narrative writing skill.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the issue indicating the low development of gross motor skills in early childhood at the Siti Khodijah Majalengka Playgroup. This is manifested by several children who have not been able to efficiently coordinate body movements to train flexibility, balance, and agility. Additionally, the children have not been able to coordinate eye-hand-foot-head movements when imitating dances and gymnastics, and they are still unskilled in using their right and left hands. The research method employed in this study is pre-experimental. The research population consists of 30 students, with a sample size of 15 students. The results of the research demonstrate that there is an improvement in the gross motor skill development of students after implementing the outbound kids' game. This is further reinforced by the analysis using descriptive statistics, which indicates a positive change in the gross motor skill development of the students. Furthermore, the analysis using inferential statistics also reveals a significant difference between the average pretest and posttest scores of the students. Thus, it can be concluded that the outbound kids' game has a positive impact on enhancing the gross motor skill development of children at the Siti Khodijah Majalengka Playgroup.

Abstract

Mathematics plays a crucial role in education, particularly in the development of problem-solving abilities. The proficiency in mathematical problem-solving has garnered significant attention, especially in light of the low academic performance of Indonesian students in the 2018 PISA assessment. This research aims to analyze the mathematical problem-solving skills of elementary school students using the Polya Method. The study employs a qualitative research design with a phenomenological approach. Subjects were selected through purposive sampling, representing three ability groups. Data were collected through tests, interviews, and observations, and were subsequently analyzed using the qualitative approach of Miles & Huberman. The findings indicate High Category Mathematical Problem-Solving Ability (HPSA) exhibit excellent mathematical problem-solving skills. They can correctly answer all questions, comprehend problems, plan, execute, and review their answers thoroughly. Moderate-ability students (MAT) demonstrate relatively good skills, although they tend to rush through problem-solving and overlook the importance of double-checking. Low-ability students (LAT) encounter difficulties in understanding problems, planning, and implementing solutions. They exhibit less systematic approaches and frequently make errors. The discussion concludes that the understanding of problems, planning, and the implementation of Polya's problem-solving steps need improvement, especially among moderate and low-ability students. Teachers should provide more intensive guidance, particularly in understanding problems and planning solutions. This research provides a profile of students' problem-solving skills and serves as a foundation for the development of more effective mathematics learning strategies in schools.

Abstract

Over a decade into the implementation of Mother Tongue-Based Multilingual Education (MTB-MLE) in the Philippines, program implementers continue to encounter challenges, especially in terms of student-centered instruction (SCI). To ensure a student-centered program, the Department of Education crafted guiding principles to which MTB-MLE teaching and learning should be anchored. However, numerous implementation challenges could potentially affect the application of SCI in the classroom. Utilizing process evaluation adopted from Stufflebeam's (2000) CIPP model, this study investigated the extent to which MTB-MLE teachers carry out SCI in a public elementary school. This paper also examined teachers' challenges and coping strategies in relation to classroom instruction. Results revealed that SCI was strongly implemented in the MTB-MLE classes. Further, the following SCI-related challenges emerged: (1) learners' unruly behavior during activities; (2) difficulty in the use of mother tongue; and (3) lack of cooperation among students. To address these concerns, the teachers employed coping strategies, such as setting clear classroom rules, using translation and code-switching, and providing varied activities to match learners' interests. The findings of this paper may aid policymakers, curriculum designers, and school administrators in developing appropriate programs and activities aimed at enhancing teachers’ competence to implement a student-centered MTB-MLE education.

Abstract

This qualitative study investigates the perspectives of Vietnamese linguistics scholars on the integration of corpus linguistics into primary English as a Foreign Language (EFL) education. Through semi-structured interviews with nine scholars from two leading Vietnamese institutions, the research explores the applicability, challenges, and strategies of implementing corpus linguistics for young learners in Vietnam. Participants, categorized into novice, mid-career, and near-end career stages, offer diverse viewpoints on this innovative teaching approach. The underpinning theoretical frameworks are sociocultural theory and constructivist learning theory. The thematic analysis reveals four key themes: tailoring corpus linguistics to young learners’ needs and abilities, the challenges in implementing corpus linguistics in primary EFL settings, the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, and the role of cultural context in corpus linguistics application. The study finds a consensus on the need for simplifying and contextualizing corpus materials to suit young learners’ cognitive and cultural backgrounds. Challenges identified include adapting corpus materials, teacher training inadequacies, and curriculum integration difficulties. The gap between theory and practice highlights the need for hands-on teacher training and comprehensive resource development. Furthermore, the importance of culturally relevant corpus materials is emphasized, balancing local and global cultural elements. This study contributes to the field of EFL education by highlighting the specific challenges and strategies for implementing corpus linguistics in the Vietnamese primary education context. It underscores the importance of culturally and pedagogically sensitive approaches in language teaching innovations.
