Abstract

The abstract and symbolic nature of chemistry presents significant learning challenges for students, particularly in the understanding of foundational concepts through a variety of representations. It's tougher to teach well, especially in Indonesia, because there are not many trustworthy instruments to measure students' interpretative skills, which are very important for representational competence. The goal of this study was to fill this gap by creating and testing a reliable assessment tool called the Assessment of Representational Competence in Fundamental Chemical Laws (ARC-FCL), which was meant to measure the interpretative skills of Indonesian senior high school students.  The Define, Design, and Develop stages of the 4D model were employed in the Research and Development process of this study design. The Kozma-Russell framework and the Three-Dimensional Learning Assessment Protocol (3D-LAP) helped shape the instrument's development. The ARC-FCL test has two levels of multiple-choice and essay questions about the laws of Lavoisier, Dalton, and Gay-Lussac. Two chemistry education professors and one experienced instructor reviewed the content to ensure its validity. Researchers got real-world data for psychometric analysis from 30 11th-grade students at a senior high school in Lampung, Indonesia. The study looked at item validity using Pearson correlation, item discrimination, and internal consistency reliability using Cronbach alpha. All three designed items had great validity, with correlation values over the key threshold of 0.361 and good discrimination indices between 0.50 and 0.75. The instrument was somewhat reliable, with a Cronbach alpha coefficient of 0.572. This is fine for a formative diagnostic tool at this early stage of development. Item analysis also showed that students had the most trouble with the question about the Law of Multiple Proportions.  In conclusion, this study developed a valuable and valid instrument for identifying the specific challenges faced by students when attempting to comprehend sub-microscopic representations of fundamental chemical principles. As a formative assessment instrument that fits with the Kurikulum Merdeka, the ARC-FCL is quite useful for Indonesian teachers. It encourages a move from memorizing things by heart to comprehending them better and learning how to do science. Future work should be focused on adding more items to the bank to make it more reliable and cover more ground. Keywords: representational competence, assessment instrument, interpretive skills, basic chemical laws, 4D model, instrument validation.

Abstract

The use of gadgets and internet access opens up great opportunities to obtain educational content, enriching children's cognitive stimulation and creativity. However, a series of studies shows that digital parenting interventions practices and strategies parents use to maximize benefits while minimizing the risks of their children's interaction with digital media still face various challenges, especially during early developmental stages. Data from the Operational Curriculum of TK AN-NUR Sabah Balau Tanjung Bintang Lampung Selatan indicates that literacy including digital literacy is considered a basic need in the learning and communication process. This community service aims to reduce children's dependence on gadgets by enhancing parents' digital literacy, strengthening dialogic communication between parents and children in the digital context, raising awareness and skills related to digital safety and health, and integrating local values into digital parenting practices. The activities are carried out in two stages: Focus Group Discussions (FGD) involving interactive dialogues between the service team and participants to identify their initial knowledge about communicative parenting, and training sessions that provide comprehensive knowledge and understanding of communicative parenting for early childhood in the digital era, particularly in facing the challenges posed by the digital world. Evaluation results from pre-tests and post-tests showed a significant improvement in participants' understanding after the training. Before the training, most participants were in the very low understanding category, but after the training, the majority improved their knowledge, with 76.92% of participants in the 'adequate' understanding category and 23.08% in the 'good' category. No participants were in the 'very low' or 'low' category after the training, indicating the success of the program in making a tangible impact.     Keywords: communicative parenting, challenges and solutions, early childhood.
