Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of culturally responsive Project-Based Learning (CR-PjBL) integrated with Sinonggi local wisdom in improving students' scientific literacy. Based on a culturally responsive pedagogical framework, this study aims to bridge students' everyday cultural experiences with formal science learning to foster deeper understanding and engagement. A quasi-experimental design was used involving junior high school students, where the experimental group was taught using PjBL integrated with Sinonggi, while the control group received conventional teaching. Data collection techniques in this study were through observation, tests, and questionnaires. The instruments used in this study were multiple-choice questions (two levels), observation sheets, and student response questionnaires. The results showed that students exposed to culturally integrated PjBL showed a significantly higher increase in scientific literacy compared to students in the control group. Furthermore, students showed increased engagement, critical thinking, and the ability to apply science concepts in real-life contexts. The results of the independent sample T-Test obtained a sig. (2 tailed) of 0.00 < 0.05, which means there is a difference in the scientific literacy scores of students who are given learning experiences using Project-Based Learning (CR-PjBL) that is culturally responsive and integrated with Sinonggi local wisdom with the scores of students taught with conventional models. The N-Gain value obtained is 0.60, categorized as moderate, indicating that the PjBL Model integrated with 'Sinonggi' local wisdom is quite effective in improving students' scientific literacy. These findings indicate that integrating local knowledge such as Sinonggi into project-based science learning not only improves cognitive outcomes but also supports culturally meaningful learning experiences.

Abstract

The quality of learning is strongly influenced by the learning model used by the teacher. Observations revealed that seventh-grade students' understanding of environmental pollution material remained low due to the dominance of conventional teaching methods. Therefore, an innovative learning model is needed to enhance students' motivation and activeness. One promising alternative is the cooperative learning model of the Picture and Picture type. This study aims to examine the effect of the cooperative learning model of the Picture and Picture type in improving the learning outcomes of seventh-grade students at MTs on the topic of environmental pollution. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, specifically the nonequivalent control group design, was employed. The experimental group was taught using the Picture and Picture model, while the control group was taught using conventional methods. Data were collected through pretests and posttests and analyzed using the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test due to non-normally distributed data. The results showed that the average score of the experimental group increased from 62.10 to 91.57 (a gain of 31.05 points), which was higher than that of the control group, which only increased by 21.57 points. The Wilcoxon test yielded a significance value of 0.001 (p < 0.05), indicating a significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores. Thus, the Picture and Picture cooperative learning model is proven to be more effective than conventional methods in improving students' learning outcomes on environmental pollution material

Abstract

Students often struggle to understand Science and Social Studies (IPAS) concepts, particularly the human respiratory system, due to uninnovative learning approaches and low participation. This study evaluates the impact of the Game Based Learning (GBL) model assisted by Memory Run media on fifth-grade students' learning outcomes. Anchored in John Dewey’s constructivism and Slavin’s motivation theory, this research argues that experiential, game-reinforced learning significantly enhances comprehension. A quantitative quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent control group design was employed, utilizing multiple-choice objective tests as the instrument. The independent sample t-test yield a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.002 < 0.05, confirming that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. This proves that the Game Based Learning (GBL) model with Memory Run media significantly improves student learning outcomes. Elementary schools are highly recommended to implement this innovative model to foster active participation. Consequently, these findings imply that integrating digital or physical educational games into complex science topics can effectively bridge conceptual gaps in primary education

Abstract

Contemporary elementary education emphasizes student-centered, culturally responsive, and engaging instructional approaches. In this context, integrating the traditional Indonesian game Curik-Curik into the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) model for teaching Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) in Grade 4 offers a promising pedagogical strategy. This study aims to explore the relevance, potential, and empirical foundation of this integration through a qualitative descriptive literature review. Relevant scholarly peer-reviewed studies featured in nationally recognized academic periodicals between 2020 and 2025 were analyzed. Findings indicate that the TGT model effectively enhances students’ learning motivation and conceptual understanding in IPAS, particularly at the Grade 4 level. Furthermore, traditional games like Curik-Curik demonstrate strong pedagogical value as contextual learning tools that foster cognitive development and social values such as cooperation, strategy, and sportsmanship. Importantly, empirical studies confirm that combining TGT with traditional games creates an active, meaningful, and culturally grounded learning experience. Thus, integrating Curik-Curik into the TGT framework demonstrates robust conceptual foundations alongside empirical applicability, thereby supporting the objectives of the Merdeka Curriculum and fostering the Pancasila Student Profile. Profiles that honor local cultural diversity.

Abstract

The ability to develop learning tools is a fundamental pedagogical competence that prospective physics teachers must possess to ensure effective learning implementation. However, how well Physics Education students perform in developing learning tools remains an important question, particularly in the context of preparing future educators. This study positions learning outcomes in learning tool development as an indicator of students’ readiness to carry out professional teaching practices. The study aimed to describe the learning outcomes profile of Physics Education students in developing learning tools. A quantitative descriptive approach was employed involving 35 Physics Education students. Data were collected through the assessment of four components of learning tools, namely learning activity time allocation, teaching material mapping and attendance planning, syllabus/lesson plan development, and learning assessment. The findings revealed that students achieved high scores in teaching material mapping and attendance planning (89.46), learning activity time allocation (87.40), and syllabus/lesson plan development (82.83). In contrast, learning assessment obtained the lowest score (69.51), indicating challenges in designing appropriate assessment instruments. These findings suggest that students demonstrate good competence in instructional planning but require further support in assessment development. Therefore, learning activities emphasizing authentic assessment design and evaluation practices are recommended to strengthen prospective physics teachers’ pedagogical competence.
