Abstract

This article explores the role of information systems in driving social change through education in Indonesia. Adopting a qualitative approach and a case study design, this research investigates how information systems, including online learning platforms and technology-based academic management systems, contribute to improving the efficiency, quality, and accessibility of education. Data were collected through interviews with key stakeholders, including educators, administrators, and students, along with document analysis from selected schools and institutions. The findings reveal that the integration of these technologies has led to enhanced learning outcomes, greater administrative efficiency, and increased student engagement. However, challenges such as digital inequality, insufficient infrastructure, and resistance to change were also identified. The study concludes that while information systems hold significant potential for educational transformation, addressing these challenges is crucial for maximizing their impact. The implications of this research suggest that policy makers and educational leaders should prioritize investments in infrastructure, training, and inclusive strategies to ensure the equitable and effective use of technology in education. This study contributes to the broader understanding of how technological innovations can drive positive social change within educational contexts in developing countries.

Abstract

The rapid evolution of technology in education necessitates innovative approaches to enhance critical thinking skills, a vital competency in the 21st century. This study aims to design and evaluate Android-based learning media using the Smart Apps Creator (SAC) platform, targeting the improvement of critical thinking skills among students in the educational technology course in the information technology education study program of the faculty of teacher training and education at Bina Bangsa University, Banten, Indonesia. The research adopts the ADDIE model, encompassing Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation phases. The developed learning media consists of interactive components, including a main page, learning objectives, usage instructions, educational materials, and evaluation exercises. The media was evaluated by four expert validators for content and media validity, yielding scores of 93% and 91%, respectively, categorized as "very valid." Practicality was assessed through student feedback, with an average score of 89.5%, indicating "very practical" usability. Effectiveness was measured through pre-test and post-test evaluations, showing a significant improvement in critical thinking skills with an average effectiveness score of 90.5%. These results highlight the learning media's capability to enhance engagement and foster critical thinking skills effectively. The study underscores the potential of SAC-based applications as a scalable solution for integrating interactive and student-centered learning tools into higher education. Future research could explore the application of such media across various educational contexts and its impact on other 21st-century competencies.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of technology has significantly impacted education, particularly in the field of language learning. Among the most promising innovations is Augmented Reality (AR), a technology that enhances the real world with digital content, creating immersive and interactive learning experiences. This potential for immersion allows AR to engage students effectively, making it a powerful tool in supporting 21st-century learning skills such as critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication. This systematic literature review aims to analyze the current body of research on AR in English language education, focusing on its ability to enhance language proficiency, retention, and fluency, while also fostering key 21st-century skills. By examining the benefits, challenges, and gaps in the literature, this review provides valuable insights for educators, researchers, and policymakers interested in incorporating AR into language education to improve learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to describe mathematical problem-solving skills before and after being taught using the STEM learning approach better than Conventional learning. Using a quantitative approach, quasi-experimental method with posttest-only control design. The population of this study was class VIII students with 7 classes totalling 151 students, through simple random sampling to provide equal opportunities to be selected as samples, 27 students from class VIII E experimental group and 22 students from class VIII A control group. Data collection techniques using mathematical problem-solving ability essay test. Data analysis was carried out normality test using Kolmogorov-Smirnov formula and homogeneity test using F test. The results of data analysis obtained normal distribution data and homogeneous variants, then the hypothesis test using t-test obtained t-count= 2.3921 greater than t-table= 1.6779 at the significance level ?= 0.05. It is concluded that the ability to solve mathematical problems taught using the STEM learning approach is better than using Conventional learning for class VIII students of SMP Negeri 12 Merangin in the 2024/2025 academic year. This study implies that the STEM approach can be an effective strategy to improve students' mathematical problem-solving skills.

Abstract

This study aims to measure the effectiveness of using big clock media in improving grade 1 elementary students' understanding of the concept of reading analog clocks. The research method used is a quantitative method with a pretest-posttest design to compare the results of students' initial and final tests after learning using large clock media. This research was conducted at SDN Pabian 4, with five students as samples. The results showed an increase in students' understanding of analog clock reading material, as indicated by the increase in the average score from the initial test of 36% to 84% in the final test. This finding emphasizes the importance of using concrete media in learning mathematics, especially for abstract materials. This research is expected to encourage further innovation in the development of creative and applicable educational media, as well as provide insight for educators in optimizing the teaching and learning process.
