Abstract

Global social changes, the intensive digitalization of educational practices following the COVID-19 pandemic, and the increasing demand for student readiness for professional careers have substantially driven the advancement of career guidance (CG) research. This scientific inquiry seeks to describe the epistemological framework, developmental trajectories, and scientific dynamics of career guidance research using a bibliometric methodology grounded in science mapping techniques. The investigation uses Scopus-indexed publications from 2019 to 2025, which are analyzed using quantitative bibliometric methods and network visualization facilitated by VOSviewer software. The analysis reveals that CG publications exhibit an S-shaped logistic growth pattern, suggesting an early acceleration phase. Publication rates were modest from 2019 to 2021 but surged sharply from 2022 to 2025, driven by growing global interest in technology-based career guidance services. Citation analysis indicates that scientific impact peaked in 2022, with the subsequent decline attributed to a citation lag rather than a decline in research quality. Projections indicate a saturation point of approximately 4,020 documents, with peak production anticipated at approximately 180 publications annually in 2035. The dataset comprises 34,476 references, highlighting the strong theoretical foundations of the CG field and its multidisciplinary scope. Thematic mapping illustrates three main categories: psychological dimensions of counseling, learner-centered education, and the integration of technology into career services. These results demonstrate that career guidance (CG) research is a nascent domain ripe for theoretical and methodological investigation. In summary, this study provides strategic insights into the development of career guidance scholarship and the adaptive development of career services in response to the demands of 21st-century education.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology requires innovative learning approaches that improve student engagement and learning outcomes, particularly in informatics education. However, Classroom instruction is still frequently dominated by conventional methods that limit student participation and reduce conceptual understanding. This study aimed to analyse the effect of WordWall-based interactive learning media and learning motivation on senior high school students’ informatics learning outcomes. This study employed a quantitative, quasi-experimental design with a 2×2 factorial structure. The research involved 60 tenth-grade students at SMAN 1 Siberut Utara selected through purposive sampling. Students were divided into an experimental class using WordWall and a control class using conventional learning media. Data were collected through learning outcome tests and motivation questionnaires, and analysed using descriptive statistics and a Two-Way ANOVA. The findings showed that students taught using WordWall achieved higher learning outcomes than those taught conventionally. The highest posttest mean score was obtained by students with high learning motivation in the WordWall group (91.42), while the lowest score was found in students with low motivation in the conventional class (50.81). Statistical analysis demonstrated that learning media significantly affected learning outcomes (F = 38.32 > 4.013), learning motivation significantly affected learning outcomes (F = 108.84 > 4.013), and there was a significant interaction between WordWall and learning motivation on students’ learning outcomes (F = 5.58 > 4.013). The study concludes that WordWall-based interactive learning effectively improves informatics learning outcomes and creates a more engaging and meaningful learning environment aligned with 21st-century educational demands.

Abstract

The development of technology-enhanced instructional media is increasingly important in biology education, particularly for topics that require students to understand abstract ecological processes. This study aimed to develop augmented reality-assisted flashcards and examine their feasibility and effectiveness in improving tenth-grade students’ conceptual mastery of ecosystem components and interactions. The study employed a Research and Development design using the ADDIE model, which consists of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The participants involved material experts, media experts, language experts, biology teachers, and tenth-grade students at SMA Negeri 15 Bandar Lampung, Indonesia. Data were collected through needs analysis questionnaires, expert validation sheets, student response questionnaires, and pre-test and post-test measures of conceptual mastery. The product was developed using Canva and Assemblr Edu to integrate printed flashcards with interactive three-dimensional augmented reality objects. The validation results indicated that the media was highly feasible, with scores of 87.06% from media experts, 89.16% from material experts, and 86.60% from language experts. The effectiveness test showed that students in the experimental class achieved a higher N-Gain score than those in the control class, with an N-Gain of 0.82 in the high category compared with 0.50 in the moderate category. The independent-samples t-test also indicated a statistically significant difference between the two groups, with a significance value of 0.000. These findings suggest that augmented reality-assisted flashcards are feasible and effective as an innovative instructional medium for supporting conceptual mastery in biology learning. The study implies that integrating printed visual media with interactive digital objects can strengthen students’ understanding of abstract biological concepts and provide a more engaging learning experience.

Abstract

Scientific literacy and social literacy are essential competencies that should be developed from the early stages of formal education, particularly within integrated science and social studies learning. This study aims to map the current condition of elementary school students’ scientific and social literacy in Integrated Science and Social Studies learning in Lampung Province, Indonesia. A qualitative approach with a descriptive exploratory design was employed to obtain an in-depth understanding of students’ literacy conditions in authentic classroom contexts. The research participants consisted of elementary school teachers and students selected through purposive sampling based on their direct involvement in Integrated Science and Social Studies instruction. Data were collected through classroom observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation studies involving lesson modules, textbooks, and student worksheets. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, which includes data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. Data trustworthiness was ensured through source triangulation, technique triangulation, and member checking. The findings reveal that students’ scientific literacy remains at a basic level. Students were generally able to observe phenomena but experienced difficulty in reasoning, interpreting information, explaining causal relationships, and applying concepts to real-life contexts. Similarly, students’ social literacy had developed in terms of basic interaction and group work but had not yet reached the level of critical social understanding and reflective social reasoning. These conditions were influenced by the dominance of conventional teaching methods, limited exploratory activities, weak contextualization of learning materials, and suboptimal use of technology. This study implies that strengthening students’ scientific and social literacy requires a transformation of instructional practices toward more inquiry-based, contextual, reflective, and student-centered learning.

Abstract

Creativity-oriented chemistry learning requires instructional designs that enable students to generate, refine, transform, and evaluate ideas through meaningful scientific inquiry. However, the success of such learning depends not only on the availability of innovative models and digital tools but also on teachers’ ability to facilitate creativity-supportive classroom practices. This study aimed to evaluate the pedagogical feasibility of an Artificial Intelligence-assisted C-R-E-A-T-E learning model in a chemistry project-based learning activity on natural paint production. The study employed a descriptive-evaluative design with a design-based research orientation. Participants included 16 Grade XI students, three trained observers, three chemistry teachers as validators, and two expert lecturers. Data were collected using the Teaching for Creativity Observation Form (TCOF), which evaluates four dimensions of creativity-supportive teaching: questioning techniques, teacher responses to students’ ideas, classroom activities that foster creativity, and whole-lesson methods that support creative learning. The data were analyzed using descriptive percentages and interpretive categories. The results showed that questioning techniques and creativity-oriented classroom activities reached full implementation, each scoring 100%. Teacher responses to students’ ideas reached a high level of implementation at 82%, whereas whole-lesson implementation of the creative learning model remained moderate at 50%. These findings indicate that the AI-assisted C-R-E-A-T-E model is pedagogically feasible for supporting creativity-oriented chemistry instruction, particularly in strengthening questioning strategies and project-based creative activities. However, deeper scaffolding is still required in imagination-building, reflective evaluation, and metacognitive guidance. The study contributes to chemistry education by demonstrating how AI can be positioned as a cognitive support tool within a structured creative learning model, while emphasizing that teacher mediation remains central to meaningful and responsible AI integration.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the effect of PhET Chemistry Simulations and learning motivation on senior high school students’ understanding of molecular shape concepts. The study employed a quasi-experimental method with a 2 × 2 factorial design involving 60 tenth-grade students divided into an experimental class using PhET Chemistry Simulations and a control class receiving conventional instruction. Data were collected through a chemistry conceptual understanding test and a learning motivation questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics and Two-Way ANOVA at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that students taught using PhET Chemistry Simulations achieved higher conceptual understanding than those taught conventionally. The highest improvement was found in highly motivated students in the experimental group (58.89 points), followed by low-motivation students in the experimental group (40.33 points). Meanwhile, the conventional groups showed improvements of 52.00 points and 35.71 points, respectively. The average posttest score of the experimental class (76.80) was higher than that of the control class (68.67). Statistical analysis revealed that instructional media significantly affected students’ chemistry conceptual understanding (F = 11.091; p < 0.05), and learning motivation also showed a significant effect (F = 112.853; p < 0.05). However, no significant interaction was found between instructional media and learning motivation (F = 0.216; p > 0.05). These findings indicate that PhET Chemistry Simulations effectively improve students’ conceptual understanding across different motivational levels.

Abstract

The digital transformation of education has reshaped guidance and counseling services, particularly in supporting students’ career readiness through technology-mediated approaches. However, research on digital career guidance remains dispersed across disciplines, making it necessary to map its intellectual structure and emerging directions. This study aims to analyze global research trends in guidance and counseling services, with particular attention to career guidance and digital learning, as a conceptual basis for future e-module development. A bibliometric analysis was conducted using publication data retrieved from Scopus and Web of Science covering the period 2018–2025. The article selection process followed the PRISMA framework, resulting in 456 documents for final analysis. Bibliographic data were analyzed using VOSviewer through publication growth analysis, keyword co-occurrence, source distribution, thematic mapping, and citation-related indicators. The findings show that research in guidance and counseling services has grown substantially, with an annual growth rate of 18.89%, involving 1,538 authors across 294 publication sources. The dominant themes include counseling, students, career guidance, and decision-making, while thematic mapping indicates that career guidance and decision-making are emerging areas with strong potential for further development. These findings suggest a shift from conventional counseling models toward more personalized, student-centered, and technology-supported services. The study contributes by identifying research gaps and future directions for developing digital career guidance media, particularly e-modules, to support more accessible, flexible, and context-responsive counseling services in contemporary education.
