Abstract

Traditional games in today's millennial era are almost unheard of, but most children today spend their free time playing modern games such as smartphones. Seeing this phenomenon makes us concerned because the effects of frequent students playing modern games on gadgets such as smartphones decrease students' social levels. This can be seen from the observations made at State Elementary School (SD Negeri 54 Banda Aceh); children prefer individual activities, are difficult to regulate, and like to argue. The study aimed to determine whether the traditional game of Englolibaba biscuits can improve students’ social skills. This research uses the action research method, which includes planning, action, observation, and reflection. The action given was the traditional game of Englolibaba biscuits. Data collection techniques in this study were observation, interview, and documentation. The sample in this study amounted to 20 fifth-grade students. The results showed increased students' social skills given the action of the traditional game of Englolibaba biscuits. This was proven based on the significant level, where the results stated a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test results. So, it can be concluded that there is an increase in students' social skills after being given the traditional game of Englolibaba biscuits.

Abstract

Research on the development of science literacy-based concept mastery instruments in eleventh-grade chemistry subjects in an even semester was conducted to (1) develop a science literacy-based concept mastery instrument, (2) determine student learning outcomes, and (3) determine teacher responses to the developed science literacy-based concept mastery instrument. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with a 4D development design consisting of Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate. The research subjects consisted of four chemistry teachers: one teacher of MAN Model Banda Aceh, one teacher of MAN 2 Banda Aceh, one teacher of SMA Inshafuddin, and one teacher of SMAN 5 Banda Aceh. Limited trials on cognitive instruments developed were applied to one class XI from each school. The instruments used were interview guideline sheets, teacher needs analysis questionnaires, and multiple choice test questions based on science literacy. The results showed that the science literacy-based concept mastery instrument was declared valid and feasible to use in a limited trial with an average validation result by validators of 98.70%. The acquisition of limited trial results on students from four SMA/MAN Banda Aceh City was 84.25%, so the instrument of mastery of science literacy-based concepts developed was able to improve student learning outcomes. Teachers responded positively to the science literacy-based concept mastery instrument developed with a very good category.

Abstract

This study aims to determine students' ability to write persuasive text using Aceh language through the Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition (CIRC) learning model and poster media. Writing persuasive text using language and spelling in the text must follow the Acehnese Latin script. Posters with invitations are intensively written using Indonesian and even foreign languages. The use of the Acehnese language has shifted at this time. This is in accordance with Statistics Indonesia (BPS) data, namely, the use of Acehnese local language is reduced among post-gen Z people born in 2013 and above compared to the pre-boomer generation (before 1945). This is based on the 2020 population census long-form report. The use of local languages by post-gen Z (2-9 years old) is 64.36 percent. This figure is much reduced compared to the pre-boomer generation (over 75 years old), whose number reached 89.93 percent. The study results show that out of thirty students who participated in the learning process, two got a score range of less than 69 with insufficient criteria. Six students get a score range of 70-79 with good enough criteria. Ten students get a score range of 80-89 with good criteria. Furthermore, twelve students get a score range of 90-100 with excellent criteria. Based on these results, it can be seen that students' ability to write Acehnese using CANVA media generally gets good criteria. The CIRC learning model makes a solution to improve students' writing skills. However, in the learning process, researchers still find some students who are less capable of expressing ideas in writing, where students are still minimal in choosing words.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of inquiry-based learning student worksheets (LKS) in improving students' critical thinking skills on buffer solutions. One student from a class of 27 in grade XI at SMAN 1 Bireuen, Aceh, Indonesia, was selected as the sample for this research, which employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through validated multiple-choice tests. The results indicate that inquiry-based LKS enhances students' critical thinking skills in four key aspects: questioning and answering, observing and evaluating observation reports, making decisions and considering outcomes, and drawing inductions and evaluating inductive conclusions. However, students exhibited relatively weak skills in formulating questions. Inquiry-based learning enables students to actively participate in the learning process, conduct experiments, and solve problems independently. Previous research has shown that inquiry-based learning is effective in developing critical thinking skills.
