Abstract

This study aims to explore the importance of the learning environment to students' learning performance. Every school, especially teachers, must try to provide the best environment for students so that they have high intentions and enthusiasm for learning. The type of approach used in this study is qualitative which is carried out by survey methods, interviews with teachers, and questionnaires from students in a structured manner. The subject of the study was taken from one of the inclusion elementary schools in the Surabaya area, namely SD Negeri Klampis Ngasem 1/246. After conducting surveys and interviews, it can be concluded that to create a positive environment learning is not imposed on teaching staff alone, but there are other supporting factors such as classroom atmosphere, learning facilities, the environment of the students themselves, the role of parent involvement, and an inclusive school culture that plays a significant role in supporting the creation of a positive environment. Teachers must play an important role in creating a positive learning environment supported by an adequate atmosphere and facilities so that students feel comfortable and safe. If the above factors support each other, a positive learning environment will be created so that students can achieve their full potential.

Abstract

Effective communication in learning is key to enhancing the quality of the teaching and learning process. However, various communication barriers often hinder interactions between teachers and students, making it challenging to achieve learning objectives. This article aims to examine the role of communication in the educational context, with a focus on teacher-student interactions. The study employs a library research approach to analyze relevant literature. The findings indicate that effective communication encompasses openness, empathy, supportiveness, positive attitudes, and equality, all of which contribute to creating an optimal learning environment. Open communication models, such as dialogical and persuasive approaches, can help students better understand learning materials. Additionally, the utilization of information technology and learning media enhances the success of communication in education. By paying attention to factors such as the communicator, the communicant, and the message, teachers are expected to create an interactive learning environment that supports the achievement of educational goals.

Abstract

The implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka (Independent Curriculum) has not yet been optimized, with a notable gap in teachers' understanding of project-based curriculum enhancement. This study aims to analyze the implementation of Kurikulum Merdeka management at Wonomlati State Elementary School, examining teachers' comprehension and the impact of the curriculum on the quality of education at the school. The research adopts a qualitative approach with a descriptive method, utilizing data collection techniques such as school observations and interviews with the principal, teachers, and curriculum staff. The findings indicate that the implementation of the Kurikulum Merdeka has had a positive impact on student engagement in the learning process, including teaching methods, and has encouraged teachers' creativity in designing and delivering more engaging and student-centered learning experiences. However, the study also identifies several challenges, such as financial constraints that hinder the provision of adequate facilities and infrastructure, as well as limited parental involvement in supporting curriculum implementation. Based on these findings, the study recommends that the government provide more optimal support, including continuous teacher training and enhanced resources, to maximize the potential of the Kurikulum Merdeka. The results of this research are expected to contribute to the development of a more effective, efficient, and sustainable curriculum at Wonomlati State Elementary School and serve as a reference for other schools in implementing the Kurikulum Merdeka.

Abstract

Critical thinking is acknowledged to be essential for the educators of the 21st century. Consistent with this, this research project aimed to evaluate the critical thinking abilities of third-year students of the English Teacher Training Programme at a Chilean university, who completed their initial two years of academic instruction exclusively online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. During the diagnosis stage, these pre-service teachers were asked to write a short essay about a topic covered in class. This phase showed participants’ lack of comprehension of the topics as their essays tended to address the issues superficially and present weak arguments, and pre-test results confirmed this. Therefore, four pedagogical interventions were designed and implemented throughout the term, using academic writing as a tool to develop critical thinking abilities. These interventions consisted of continuous feedback on the participants’ writings, an academic writing course, attendance at a webinar on critical thinking and English language teaching, and group reflection sessions. The results of the post-test showed significant improvement in both content organisation and the quality of the arguments presented in the essays. The participants demonstrated a more critical and analytical approach to addressing the topics of their writings, demonstrating a significant progress in their analytical reasoning skills. This research highlights the importance of addressing and strengthening critical thinking skills in pre-service teachers, especially after being immersed in a virtual education context. The pedagogical interventions implemented proved to be effective in improving participants’ critical reasoning, representing a valuable contribution to their future teaching practice.

The method used in this research is a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that the moral values in the verse, such as the prohibition of demeaning others, reproaching, calling bad names, prejudice, and backbiting, have been implemented through habituation activities which include Islamic value-based learning, teacher exemplary, and special anti-bullying programs at school. The implementation of these values has proven effective in shaping students' awareness to respect each other and maintain ukhuwah Islamiyah in the school environment.
