Abstract

The heterogeneous characteristics of students require teachers to be creative in implementing innovative learning strategies that can meet the various needs of students. This study explores the influence of differentiated learning management on teacher readiness to implement differentiated learning, by analysing teacher self-efficacy and acceptance of differentiated learning as moderator variables.  The study involved 162 Elementary School (ES) and Madrasah Ibtidaiyah (MI) teachers from 49 schools in three sub-districts, namely Tapos District, Depok City, Cimanggis District, Bogor Regency, and Kelapa Dua Wetan District, East Jakarta City, Indonesia. This research uses quantitative methods. Data collection used three instruments in the form of questionnaires, namely instruments to measure differentiated learning management (DLM), teachers’ readiness to implement differentiated learning (RIDL), teacher self-efficacy (TSE), and acceptance of differentiated learning (ADL). Data were analyzed using partial least squares structural equal modelling (PLS-SEM) with the help of SmartPLS 3 software. The results showed that differentiated learning management, self-efficacy, and teacher acceptance of differentiated learning had a direct and significant effect on teacher readiness to implement differentiated learning. This study has implications for the importance of core support, professional development, and other policies and resources to support teachers’ readiness to implement differentiated learning.

Abstract

Meaningful mathematics instruction enables students to autonomously construct mathematical concepts and discern their relevance to real-world contexts. The Ethno-Realistic Mathematics Education (E-RME) approach advances this objective by embedding cultural and contextual dimensions within the curriculum, thereby fostering critical thinking and deepening conceptual mastery. This study investigated the efficacy of the E-RME approach in enhancing the critical thinking capacities of primary school pupils. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving 308 pupils from diverse primary schools, allocated to experimental and control groups. Assessment was conducted using the Generalised Partial Credit Model (GPCM), which facilitates polytomous scoring of two-tier test items to capture nuanced responses. Data were analysed using JASP software to evaluate pupils’ conceptual understanding and reasoning proficiency based on their tiered responses. The findings revealed that the E-RME approach significantly outperformed the conventional instructional model in promoting conceptual understanding and critical thinking, even after adjusting for baseline performance via ANCOVA. These results underscore that superior learning outcomes derive not only from the mathematical content delivered but also from pedagogical strategies that meaningfully integrate mathematics with pupils’ cultural identities and lived experiences

Abstract

Elementary school curriculum changes by integrating science subjects into integrated science courses, requiring innovative open-ended materials based on local wisdom. This study aims to develop flipbook-based teaching materials integrating local wisdom for Natural and Social Studies (IPAS) learning at Darussalam Elementary School, focusing on enhancing students’ understanding and motivation, particularly in energy topics. Research and development (R&D) method with the Borg and Gall model, modified by Sugiyono. The first research flow is potential and problem, product design, design validation, design revision, final product, and field report preparation. The results demonstrated that the use of local wisdom-based flipbooks significantly improved student learning outcomes, as evidenced by increased understanding in pretest and posttest data. Expert assessments (lecturers, material experts, information technology experts, and school principals) confirmed that the teaching materials met the expected standards, with suggestions for enhancing interactivity. This research contributes to education by integrating technology and local wisdom to improve the quality of science learning in elementary schools. The findings indicate that flipbook-based technology can make learning more relevant and engaging for students. Future studies should focus on broader trials and long-term monitoring to evaluate the impact of these materials on student outcomes.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming education rapidly. However, awareness of AI and its utilization varies significantly across professional fields and educational levels. This study investigated pre-service teachers' attitudes towards and use of AI in teaching and learning activities in Nigeria. A descriptive survey method was employed involving 96 pre-service teachers from a private college of education in Kwara State who were selected via simple random sampling. Data were collected using the Pre-service Elementary Teachers' Attitudes and Utilization of Artificial Intelligence in Teaching-Learning Activities Questionnaire (PSETAUAIQ), which demonstrated strong reliability (index = 0.77). The findings were insightful: Pre-service teachers consistently expressed positive attitudes towards integrating AI into their teaching, and the study revealed a high level of AI utilization among them. Crucially, analysis confirmed no significant difference in attitudes or AI utilization based on gender. Based on these results, it is strongly recommended that pre-service teachers receive comprehensive ethical training to ensure the responsible and effective use of AI tools in their future classrooms.

Abstract

Promoting Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) is pivotal to enhancing student achievement within contemporary educational contexts. Traditional classroom methodologies often hinder the cultivation of self-regulated learning, leading to inconsistent academic outcomes. This study examines the Seamless Learning framework, which synthesises formal and informal learning environments, to foster self-regulated learning among primary school students. In a quasi-experimental design, ninety-two fourth-year primary school pupils were divided into experimental and control groups. The experimental group engaged in Seamless Learning interventions across domestic, community, and classroom settings, whereas the control group received conventional classroom instruction. A variety of validated instruments were employed to evaluate self-regulated learning (SRL). In comparison to the control group, the experimental group demonstrated significant enhancements in self-regulated learning (SRL) and academic outcomes. The Seamless Learning framework proved effective for both high- and low-SRL pupils, underscoring its versatility. The efficacy of this approach was contingent upon robust teacher facilitation and active parental engagement; (The findings indicate that incorporating the Seamless Learning framework into curricula significantly enhances the development of lifelong learning competencies. This approach not only elevates academic performance but also fosters learner autonomy by addressing diverse educational needs

Abstract

The urgency of this article is the increase in the prevalence of socio-emotional problems faced by elementary school children in the modern era. This study used a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach to identify, evaluate, and synthesize critically the empirical findings regarding emotional management in elementary school-age children in the context of modern life. Scientific articles used were those published between 2015 and 2024, and articles indexed in Scopus and Sinta databases. Moreover, studies that explicitly discuss emotional management in 6-12-year-old children were also included. The results of the study indicated that emotional management strategies for children have been developed globally, yet their implementation remains uneven at the local level. Three main findings for effective strategies that frequently emerge are emotional management strategies, with 44 articles (31.65%). Common challenges were reported in 42 articles (30.14%), such as a lack of teacher training in managing students' emotions. Solutions involving teacher training regarding emotion and their regulations were reported in 21 articles (29.19%). This functions as a solid foundation to understand how children's emotional education should be developed, not only taught.

Abstract

Prior studies demonstrate that numerous pre-service teachers retain scientific misconceptions, and existing assessment instruments are inadequate for accurately distinguishing levels of comprehension. This research developed the Multitier Science Instrument (MScI), a reliable diagnostic tool for improving the evaluation of conceptual comprehension.  The research utilised the 4D model, which consists of four phases: defining, designing, developing, and disseminating. The study involved thirty-one pre-service elementary school teachers, with an average age of 19 years, at an Islamic university in Cirebon, Indonesia. CVR analysis and other statistical techniques evaluated the instrument's validity and reliability while analysing the distribution of misconceptions. The results demonstrate that the Multitier Science Instrument (MScI) possesses high validity, evidenced by a Content Validity Ratio of 0.966, surpassing the benchmark of 0.672, and robust reliability, as indicated by a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.827.  The responses from participants were divided into four groups: sound understanding, partial understanding, misconceptions, and no understanding. Fluid statics exhibited the highest degree of misconceptions among the evaluated subjects.  These findings underscore the pressing necessity for enhanced diagnostic instruments in education.  Conventional assessment techniques, such as multiple-choice examinations and essay prompts, inadequately reflect the genuine depth of pre-service elementary educators' conceptual comprehension

Abstract

Literacy is a very important foundation in education, especially at the primary school level because these skills support students' cognitive, social and emotional development. This study aimed to present a flipbook-based learning solution as an interactive digital media in improving reading literacy skills through Nusantara culture materials. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE development model which includes the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Data were collected through observation, interviews, pretest and posttest tests, and validation from experts. The findings of this study indicate that the FLITARA medium achieved a very high validity rating and was empirically demonstrated to significantly enhance reading literacy and learning participation among third-year primary school pupils. Furthermore, this medium contributes to the internalisation of cultural values and the contextual development of pupils’ character. These results reinforce the proposition that the integration of digital technology grounded in local culture is not only pedagogically pertinent but also strategically vital for fostering national identity and advancing the attainment of sustainable education objectives.

Abstract

Dyscalculia is a specific learning disability that impairs mathematical abilities. It presents significant challenges to affected individuals, particularly primary school pupils who struggle with basic arithmetic. This study investigated prevalence levels and strategies of overcoming dyscalculia among primary pupils. The study adopted a descriptive survey research design. Simple random sampling techniques were used to select 116 public primary school teachers in Kwara State, Nigeria. A researcher-self-constructed instrument titled “Prevalence Level and Strategies of Overcoming Dyscalculia Questionnaire” (PLSODQ) was used for data collection, with a reliability coefficient of 0.76. Descriptive statistics were used to answer the research question, while an independent sample t-test was used to test the hypothesis. The findings revealed that the prevalence level of dyscalculia among primary school pupils as perceived by teachers is at an average level. Also, the strategies of overcoming dyscalculia among primary school pupils as perceived by teachers. Primary school teachers agreed that dyscalculia could be overcome by exposing pupils to education and employing an individualized teaching method, among others. Finally, there was no significant difference between male and female primary school teachers' perceived prevalence level of dyscalculia among primary school pupils. It was recommended that seminars and conferences should be organized for teachers.
