Abstract

The importance of classroom interaction in EFL (English as a Foreign Language) instruction is occasionally lost on educators. The interaction in the classroom is crucial to assimilating and embracing the target language. As a result of successful information transfer from the teacher to the students, good contact can lead to an increase in students' language acquisition. Because the focus of the classroom interaction study is on how interlocutors make meaning of one another's contributions, the findings can be used as a diagnostic tool to identify issues with discourse management and crucial occurrences that learners confront. Researchers used qualitative methods, including discourse analysis and case studies. Smaratungga Buddhist College Study College was conducted this investigation. The researchers anticipate that learners will be motivated and inspired by the interactional situation. This study focuses on how the teacher creates interaction in the classroom. The success of all outcomes depends on how well students interact. Researchers agree with their actions while they are interacting with the teacher or one another.

Abstract

Nowadays, online classrooms are growing in popularity. Especially given the Covid-19 outbreak in Indonesia, which has forced online learning. This study aims to investigate online learning in EFL learners’ writing classrooms. This study uses a qualitative method and a descriptive qualitative research design to examine in detail how teachers teach EFL learners in online writing. Researchers collected data through the technique of nonparticipant observation, and the researcher "observes from the sidelines" the action being observed. The results of this study reveal that the observed teacher's teaching method is not consistent with the four reference strategies employed by the researchers. The four strategies include; building knowledge of field, modeling of text, joint construction of text, and independent construction of text. Because, after being observed, the teacher employs only one strategy to teach writing, specifically building knowledge of field.

Abstract

Critical thinking skills are an important foundation for individuals in the modern era. This ability is not only needed at a high level, but also from an early age, including in elementary schools. Unfortunately, its application in elementary schools is still minimal. Assessing the critical thinking skills of 4th grade students in the material of perimeter and area of a square, analyzing its relationship with learning independence, and knowing the level of student understanding of the material. Quantitative research with descriptive and correlational design. A sample of 7 4th grade students was selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected through questionnaires and questions. Data were analyzed using inferential statistics. Students' critical thinking skills are still low. There is a significant positive relationship between learning independence and critical thinking skills. Students' level of understanding of the perimeter and area of a square still needs to be improved. Critical thinking skills of 4th grade students in the material of the perimeter and area of a square need to be improved. Efforts to improve students' critical thinking skills need to be made by paying attention to the important role of learning independence. In addition, learning the perimeter and area of a square needs to be designed more effectively to improve students' understanding. These findings provide important implications for educators to: (1) Increase the focus on developing students' critical thinking skills in learning; (2) Integrate aspects of learning independence in learning to support the development of students' critical thinking skills; (3) Design more effective and student-centered learning of the perimeter and area of a square. This research is expected to contribute to the development of mathematics learning in elementary schools, especially in improving students' critical thinking skills and learning independence in square perimeter and area material.

Abstract

This study investigates the influence of cognitive dissonance on environmental literacy and conceptual knowledge among elementary school students in the context of science learning about animal life cycles. Employing a descriptive quantitative approach with an ex post facto design, the research involved 240 students from grades 4, 5, and 6 at two elementary schools in Cirebon, Indonesia, who had received instruction on animal life cycles in accordance with the Merdeka Curriculum. Data were collected using validated and reliable four-point Likert scale questionnaires measuring environmental literacy, conceptual knowledge, and cognitive dissonance. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was conducted to examine the relationships among these variables following the instructional intervention. The results demonstrate that students possess high levels of environmental literacy and sound conceptual understanding of animal life cycles, while experiencing moderate to low levels of cognitive dissonance. Statistical analysis reveals that science instruction incorporating cognitive dissonance significantly enhances both environmental literacy and conceptual knowledge, without inducing excessive cognitive conflict. Theoretically, this research advances the understanding of cognitive dissonance as a catalyst for meaningful learning and conceptual change in elementary science education. Practically, the findings recommend the implementation of science teaching strategies that actively challenge students’ preconceptions through real-world content, such as animal life cycles, to foster scientific literacy and environmental responsibility from an early age.

Abstract

This study aimed to provide empirical evidence on the influence of outdoor learning environments and entrepreneurship education on the entrepreneurial self-efficacy of elementary school students. A quantitative approach was employed, involving 282 students from several elementary schools in Cirebon Regency. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire developed based on validated indicators measuring outdoor learning settings, entrepreneurship education, and students’ entrepreneurial self-efficacy. The data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) method with the assistance of SmartPLS software. The results showed that the outdoor learning environment had a significant and positive impact on both entrepreneurship education and students’ entrepreneurial self-efficacy. Furthermore, entrepreneurship education served as a mediating variable that strengthened the relationship between the outdoor learning environment and entrepreneurial self-efficacy. These findings highlighted the importance of contextual and experiential learning beyond the traditional classroom in enhancing entrepreneurship education. Therefore, integrating outdoor learning elements into entrepreneurship curricula is a strategic approach to developing entrepreneurial self-efficacy and competencies from an early stage of education.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the importance of critical thinking skills in science learning in elementary schools and the need to understand the factors that may affect it, such as age, gender, and self-confidence of students. The purpose of this study is to analyse whether there is a significant influence of age, gender, and self-confidence on students' critical thinking skills. This research design uses a quantitative approach with the method of multiple discriminant analysis. The research sample consisted of 60 fourth grade students from two elementary schools that had been determined purposively. Data collection survey method were carried out through a critical thinking test and a validated self-confidence questionnaire. Data analysis used SPSS software to determine the classification pattern and contribution of each variable. The results showed that there was no significant effect of age, gender, or self-confidence on students' critical thinking ability. This finding confirms that critical thinking ability is more influenced by other factors outside of these three variables. This research contributes to illustrating that teachers should focus more on learning approaches rather than demographic factors. In the future, this result implies that actively designed and contextualised learning can play a greater role in developing critical thinking ability.
