Abstract

The procedure for developing standardized learning achievement tests is a systematic process aimed at producing evaluation instruments that are valid, reliable, and objective. The development stages begin with the preparation of a test blueprint as a guideline for determining competencies, materials, indicators, and levels of item difficulty. This is followed by item writing and review to ensure the appropriateness of the content, construction, language, and alignment with learning objectives and Bloom’s Taxonomy. The test is then piloted and analyzed to determine the level of difficulty, discriminating power, distractor effectiveness, validity, and reliability of the test items. Based on the analysis results, the items are revised, selected, and assembled into a test instrument ready for use. Through a structured procedure, standardized learning achievement tests can serve as accurate measurement tools for assessing students’ competency achievement

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using digital comic media in improving mathematical concept understanding of third-grade students at MIN 2 Jepara on multiplication and division materials. This research employed a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental method using a One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The subjects consisted of 30 third-grade students of MIN 2 Jepara. Data were collected through tests, observations, and student response questionnaires. The results showed that the use of digital comic media positively contributed to students’ understanding of mathematical concepts. The average pretest score was 80 and increased to 95 in the posttest. Learning mastery reached 100%, with 20 students obtaining a score of 100, five students obtaining 90, and five students obtaining 80. Students also showed positive responses, indicating that digital comics made learning more enjoyable, engaging, and easier to understand because mathematical concepts were presented through stories and visual illustrations. The findings indicate that digital comic media can serve as an innovative learning medium that helps students understand abstract mathematical concepts more concretely. Therefore, digital comics can be used as an alternative learning medium to improve mathematics learning quality in elementary schools.

Abstract

Speaking anxiety is a common psychological barrier that hinders students from performing well in oral communication, particularly in foreign language learning contexts. This study aimed to analyze the levels of speaking anxiety experienced by eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Bangli and to identify the contributing factors as well as the dominant factor of their speaking anxiety. A mixed-method approach with a case study design was employed, involving 70 students from classes VIII B and VIII C as the subjects. Data were collected using the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (FLCAS) questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data were analyzed using the interactive model by Miles et al. (2014). The findings revealed that the majority of students experienced speaking anxiety at mild to high levels, with 28 students (40%) in the Anxious category, 26 students (37.1%) in the Mildly Anxious category, and 15 students (21.4%) in the Very Anxious category. Only one student (1.4%) was classified as Relaxed, and none were Very Relaxed. The dominant factors contributing to speaking anxiety were Communication Apprehension (70%) and Fear of Negative Evaluation (69.7%). Internal factors identified included limited vocabulary, fear of making mistakes, and lack of confidence, while external factors included being asked to speak without preparation, fear of being laughed at by friends, and pressure from teachers. This study confirms that speaking anxiety is a prevalent phenomenon among Indonesian junior high school students and aligns with the theory of foreign language anxiety proposed by Horwitz et al. (1986).

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh model pembelajaran Project Based Learning (PjBL) terhadap hasil belajar siswa pada materi transformasi energi kelas IV SDN Sukaraja 1. Penelitian dilatarbelakangi oleh rendahnya hasil belajar siswa serta kurangnya variasi model pembelajaran yang digunakan dalam proses pembelajaran IPA sehingga peserta didik kurang aktif dan mudah merasa bosan dalam mengikuti pembelajaran. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode quasi experiment dan desain Nonequivalent Control Group Design. Penelitian dilaksanakan di SDN Sukaraja 1 dengan sampel sebanyak 30 siswa kelas IV yang dibagi menjadi kelas eksperimen dan kelas kontrol masing-masing berjumlah 15 siswa. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan tes berupa pretest dan posttest. Analisis data dilakukan melalui uji normalitas, uji homogenitas, dan uji hipotesis menggunakan uji statistik non-parametrik Mann-Whitney U Test dengan bantuan SPSS 27. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa data tidak seluruhnya berdistribusi normal. Hasil uji normalitas pada kelas eksperimen memperoleh nilai signifikansi pretest sebesar 0,343 dan posttest sebesar 0,405 > 0,05 sehingga data berdistribusi normal. Sementara itu, pada kelas kontrol diperoleh nilai signifikansi pretest sebesar 0,364 dan posttest sebesar 0,028 < 0,05 sehingga data tidak berdistribusi normal. Hasil uji homogenitas menunjukkan bahwa data memiliki varians yang homogen dengan nilai Sig. Based on Mean kelas eksperimen sebesar 0,259 > 0,05 dan kelas kontrol sebesar 0,459 > 0,05. Oleh karena itu, pengujian hipotesis dilakukan menggunakan uji statistik non-parametrik Mann-Whitney U Test. Hasil uji hipotesis memperoleh nilai Sig. (2-tailed) sebesar 0,012 < 0,05 sehingga Ho ditolak dan Ha diterima. Selain itu, rata-rata nilai pretest kelas eksperimen sebesar 71,67 meningkat menjadi 88,33 pada posttest, sedangkan rata-rata nilai pretest kelas kontrol sebesar 65,67 meningkat menjadi 77,33 pada posttest. Dengan demikian, model pembelajaran Project Based Learning (PjBL) berpengaruh terhadap hasil belajar siswa pada materi transformasi energi kelas IV SDN Sukaraja 1.

Abstract

Mata pelajaran Biologi di jenjang sekolah menengah sering dianggap sangat membosankan oleh para siswa-siswi di sekolah menengah karena penuh dengan berbagai konsep yang abstrak dan banyak objek mikroskopis yang tidak bisa dilihat secara langsung oleh mata yang bersifat tidak kasat mata. Teknologi augmented reality lahir sebagai sebuah media pembelajaran yang bersifat interaktif serta mampu membuat gambar dua dimensi menjadi tampilan tiga dimensi yang jauh lebih relistis sehingga terlihat menarik untuk dilihat. Dengan menerapkan metode penelitian berupa tinjauan literature yang sistematis, saya menganalisis berbagai penelitian terbaru yang di terbitkan antara tahun 2021 hingga 2026. Artikel ini membahas tentang berbagai kemungkinan manfaat serta masalah nyata yang mungkin saja saat menggunakan teknologi augmented reality dalam pembelajaran biologi. Secara umum hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa penggunaan teknologi augmented reality berhasil membantu siswa dalam memahami materi yang dirasa sulit serta meningkatkan semangat belajar mereka. Perubahan digital saat ini masih memiliki hambatan, hambatannya yaitu adanya ketimpangan spesifikasi perangkat yang digunakan oleh siswa dan ketidak siapan para guru sebagai tenaga pendidik menjadi hambatan terbesar yang perlu ditangani. Dengan membaca artikel ini diharapkan para guru serta pemerintah dapat mengambil langkah-langkah strategis dalam membangun sebuah sistem pembelajaran berbasis digital yang praktis dan bermanfaat.
