Abstract

This study aims to develop an E-Brochure learning media based on the Tridaya Eka Dharma Struggle Museum collection to improve students' understanding in learning history. This research was conducted at SMAN 4 Bukittinggi, focusing on history lessons for Grade XII students. The background of this research arose from the lack of student interest in history lessons due to conventional teaching methods. To address this problem, this study developed an E-Brochure learning media that allows students to learn about museum collections online. This study followed the Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, which includes Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. Data collection involved observation, interviews, and questionnaires distributed to students and history teachers. The E-Brochure learning media was validated by media and history material experts before being trialed on small and large groups of students. The findings showed that the E-Brochure learning media was effective in increasing student motivation and engagement in history lessons. Students showed a higher level of enthusiasm and understanding when using the e-brochure compared to traditional learning methods. In conclusion, the e-brochure learning media based on the Tridaya Eka Dharma Struggle Museum collection can be innovative in making history learning more interesting.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the internship experiences of Non-Formal Education students and the meaning they construct from those experiences through the use of photo elicitation methods. The research questions focus on revealing the internship experiences of undergraduate students in the Non-Formal Education Program at Manado State University and how they interpret those experiences. The study employed a qualitative research method with a theoretical perspective grounded in the interpretivist paradigm and the epistemological foundation of constructionism. The research was conducted at a public university in central Indonesia. A total of 17 participants (6 males and 11 females) were involved in this study, selected through saturation sampling. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews. The findings of this study reveal three main themes or units of meaning regarding the internship experiences of undergraduate students in the Non-Formal Education Program at Manado State University: students' internship experiences, the meanings students attribute to their internships, and the continuity of competencies gained from internship experiences. These three themes are interrelated and diverse. First, the theme of students' internship experiences includes seven subthemes. Second, the theme of the meaning of internship from the students' perspective consists of nine subthemes. Third, the theme of the tendency for competency continuity includes five subthemes.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the diversity of gastropods in the mangrove ecosystem of Kayu Ara Permai Village, Siak Regency, and to develop a biodiversity handout. The background of this study is the limited availability of teaching materials and the lack of contextual learning in schools. To address this problem, a handout based on local environmental potential was developed to help students understand the concept of biodiversity in a concrete and meaningful way. This study used a quantitative descriptive method, while the handout development followed the ADDIE model, including analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation, but was limited to the development stage. Gastropod data were collected using line transect and plot methods at three observation stations. The results showed that the gastropod diversity index was categorized as moderate, with six species found in various mangrove conditions. These findings were then used as contextual material in the development of the handout. Validation results by material and media experts showed that the handout was categorized as very valid in terms of content, language, presentation, and graphics. This study contributes by integrating local ecological research into contextual teaching materials, enhancing the relevance of biodiversity learning and supporting more meaningful learning experiences.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the literacy facilities index in elementary schools in Cianjur and its implications for the implementation of the School Literacy Movement (SLM). The study employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive survey method involving 91 schools. Data were collected through a questionnaire covering four components: physical literacy facilities, school literacy media, reading resources, and digital literacy facilities, and were analyzed using mean scores and index calculations. The results show that the overall literacy facilities index is 3.15 (fair category). School literacy media (3.54) and reading resources (3.45) are categorized as good, digital literacy facilities (3.04) are fair, while physical literacy facilities (2.67) are the lowest. The limited availability of physical literacy facilities, particularly libraries and laboratories, restricts students’ access to learning resources and constrains the development of sustainable literacy environments, thereby hindering the effective implementation of the School Literacy Movement. Therefore, policies should prioritize the equitable provision and optimal utilization of physical literacy facilities to strengthen its implementation. These findings highlight the importance of addressing facility disparities in supporting school literacy programs.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the low ability to write news texts among seventh grade students of SMPN 3 Telagasari, which is indicated by difficulties in finding and developing ideas, lack of understanding of structure, and low interest in learning. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of using the flipped classroom model on the ability to write news texts in seventh grade students of SMP Negeri 3 Telagasari. The method used is quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent control group design. The research sample consisted of class VII B and class VII A at SMP Negeri 3 Telagasari. Data collection techniques used were observation, writing tests, documentation, and questionnaires. Data analysis techniques used statistical tests. The results of the study showed an increase in pretest and posttest results. The results of the t-test with the Independent Sample T Test were 0.000 <0.05, so H0 was rejected and Ha was accepted. The results of the student perception questionnaire with TCR analysis showed an average of 87.6% of target respondents, in the very good category. Thus, the use of the flipped classroom model has an effect on improving the ability to write news texts in class VII students of SMPN 3 Telagasari.

Abstract

This study investigates the effect of the Repeated Reading Strategy on students’ reading comprehension in an EFL context. The study was motivated by students’ low reading comprehension ability, particularly in understanding vocabulary and comprehending narrative texts.This research employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design involving an experimental class and a control class. The participants were 82 eleventh-grade students at SMAN 19 Pekanbaru selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a 20-item multiple-choice reading comprehension test based on five indicators: identifying main ideas, finding factual information, understanding vocabulary, recognizing references, and making inferences. The instrument was tested for validity and reliability, with the Cronbach’s Alpha coefficient showing a reliability score of 0.744. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and an independent sample t-test with SPSS version 25. The findings revealed that the experimental class showed greater improvement than the control class. The mean score of the experimental class increased from 60.73 to 77.32, while the control class obtained a lower post-test mean score of 69.15. In addition, the independent sample t-test showed a significance value of 0.009 (< 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the two groups.The study concludes that the Repeated Reading Strategy is effective in improving students’ reading comprehension in the Indonesian EFL context. Unlike previous studies that mainly focused on elementary and junior high school students, this study provides empirical evidence of the effectiveness of repeated reading at the senior high school level, particularly in improving comprehension of narrative texts.

Abstract

Political memes have become a popular medium for conveying political messages on social media, particularly among young audiences. However, understanding such content requires the ability to interpret both explicit and implicit meanings. This study aims to examine Indonesian youth’s semantic perception of English political memes shared by the Instagram account What Is Up, Indonesia? (WIUI). Using a descriptive quantitative approach, the study involved 50 Indonesian youth aged 18–30 who actively use Instagram and are familiar with WIUI’s content. Data were collected through a 22-item questionnaire using a four-point Likert scale and analyzed using descriptive statistics. The findings indicate that respondents generally demonstrated a fairly good level of semantic perception. The highest understanding was observed in multimodal meaning and irony recognition, while clarity of meaning and evaluative perception showed greater variation. This study highlights the role of multimodal meaning in shaping interpretation and contributes to the limited research on how non-native English-speaking youth interpret political memes in digital contexts. Overall, English political memes can serve as an accessible medium for political communication among Indonesian youth.

Abstract

Students’ self-efficacy in learning physics is often still low, particularly in abstract topics such as renewable energy, which leads to low participation and confidence in learning. Therefore, an effective learning approach is needed to improve students’ self-efficacy. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based chatbots integrated into study group learning to improve students’ self-efficacy. This research used a quasi-experimental method with a nonequivalent control group design conducted at SMAIT Al-Fityah Pekanbaru involving class X students. The sample consisted of 46 students divided into experimental and control classes. Data were collected using self-efficacy questionnaires administered before and after treatment and analyzed using N-Gain, paired sample t-test, and independent sample t-test. The results showed that the average N-Gain in the experimental class (0.57) was higher than in the control class (0.32), both categorized as medium. These findings indicate that the integration of AI chatbots in study group learning is effective in improving students’ self-efficacy and supports more interactive and meaningful learning.

Abstract

This qualitative case study examined how senior high school teachers implement merit-point systems for students’ participation in extracurricular activities, focusing on the bases for awarding points, students’ observed responses, and strategies for ensuring consistency, fairness, and transparency. Although extracurricular participation is widely recognized as part of holistic student development, limited research has examined how merit-point systems are actually implemented at the senior high school level, particularly in terms of standardization, fairness, and evidence-based awarding practices. Seven (7) senior high school teachers whose students participated in extracurricular activities served as participants. Data were gathered through open-ended interviews that explored teachers’ experiences, perspectives, and practices in awarding merit points. Findings revealed that students commonly participated in sports and athletics, performing arts, student government, and school clubs or organizations. Teachers awarded merit points based on active participation, competition level, demonstrated achievement, and sustained commitment. To ensure fairness, they relied on clear criteria, verified participation, and equitable treatment. Teachers also observed enhanced motivation, perceived recognition, and strengthened academic confidence among students after receiving merit points. Based on these findings, the study proposes a standard operating procedure to promote consistent, transparent, and effective merit-point implementation.

Abstract

This study was conducted to address the low level of students’ learning engagement in science learning at Grade VIII.G of SMP Negeri 22 Padang. The study aimed to improve students’ learning engagement through the implementation of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) cooperative learning model. This study employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) using the Kemmis and McTaggart model, which consisted of two cycles: planning, action, observation, and reflection, involving 32 students of Grade VIII.G. Data were collected using observation sheets and learning engagement questionnaires and analyzed descriptively using percentage analysis. The study was considered successful when students’ learning engagement reached at least the Active category based on the predetermined success criteria. The findings showed that students’ learning engagement improved throughout the research cycles. The average questionnaire score increased from 58.7% in the pre-cycle to 74.5% in Cycle I and 79.0% in Cycle II, while the average observation score increased from 53.5% to 69.9% and 78.1%, respectively. These findings suggest that the implementation of the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) cooperative learning model improved students’ learning engagement in science learning among the participants involved in this study.
