Abstract

The focus of this observation is to describe the use of interactive puzzle boards in helping fourth-grade students understand the parts of plants and their functions. Descriptive qualitative observation methods were used to directly observe how this media influenced learning activities, student responses, and conceptual understanding during the learning process. Before the media was used, most students were unable to correctly name plant parts and showed little engagement during learning activities. After the interactive puzzle was implemented, students were more active in assembling puzzle pieces, discussing, and connecting images with the concepts being studied. The questionnaire results showed an increase in student interest and enjoyment during the learning process. In addition, learning outcomes improved significantly, with students' scores, which were previously in the range of 40-80, changing to 80-100 after the use of the media. These findings indicate that interactive puzzles are able to create real and more interesting learning experiences that foster creativity, interest, and understanding of the material among students.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of School-Based Management at UPT SDN 106163 Bandar Klippa and to formulate strengthening strategies based on actual conditions in the field. The research employed a qualitative approach using interviews. The research informants consisted of the principal and a fifth-grade teacher selected for their direct involvement in planning and implementing school programs. The findings indicate that the school has made efforts to apply the principles of School-Based Management through needs-based program planning, teacher involvement in decision-making, and the implementation of student character-building activities. However, the implementation has not yet been optimal due to limited funding, high administrative demands on teachers, and insufficient participation from the community and school committee.MThrough an idea engineering process, this study produced several strategies to strengthen School-Based Management, including simplifying teacher administrative tasks, optimizing task distribution, utilizing simple technologies to improve work efficiency, and enhancing collaboration among the school, committee, and parents. The study concludes that School-Based Management at the school has strong potential to improve, provided that key obstacles are addressed and all stakeholders demonstrate stronger commitment in supporting school governance.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of formative assessment on elementary school students’ learning achievement. The background of this research is the limited implementation of formative assessment in classroom learning, where assessment practices tend to focus on summative tests rather than continuous evaluation of the learning process. This research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a nonequivalent control group design. The study was conducted at a public elementary school in Bandung during the 2024/2025 academic year. The participants consisted of two fifth-grade classes, with one class assigned as the experimental group implementing formative assessment strategies and the other as the control group using conventional assessment methods. Data were collected over a six-week period through learning achievement tests and classroom observations. The results of the data analysis revealed a significant difference in post-test scores between the experimental and control groups. Students who experienced formative assessment showed higher learning achievement compared to those who received conventional assessment. In addition, formative assessment was found to increase student motivation, participation, and engagement in the learning process. These findings indicate that formative assessment is effective in improving students’ learning achievement and supporting a more meaningful and student-centered learning environment in elementary schools.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the results of learning evaluation in Pancasila and Citizenship Education (PPKn) to assess the strengthening of character values among elementary school students. Learning evaluation serves not only to measure cognitive achievement but also to assess affective and psychomotor aspects related to character development. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study method conducted at SDN 060791 Medan Area. Data were collected through classroom observations, in-depth interviews with the PPKn teacher, and documentation analysis of assessment rubrics, teacher journals, and students’ assignments. The findings indicate that PPKn learning evaluation can identify the reinforcement of character values such as responsibility, discipline, cooperation, honesty, and patriotism. Evaluation instruments used include attitude rubrics, project-based assignments, behavioral observations, and student self-reflections. However, several challenges were identified, including limited instructional time, administrative workload, and the lack of systematically structured affective assessment instruments. Therefore, PPKn learning evaluation needs to be designed in a systematic and continuous manner to function as an effective reflective tool for strengthening character education in elementary schools.

Abstract

The digital era has significantly transformed social interactions, learning processes, and character formation, particularly among younger generations. As the ideological foundation of the Indonesian state, Pancasila plays a crucial role in guiding moral values and strengthening national character amid rapid technological development and globalization. This study aims to analyze the role and relevance of Pancasila values in building national character in the digital era, as well as the challenges faced in their implementation. The research employed a qualitative approach using a literature review method by examining books, scientific journals, and relevant academic documents related to Pancasila, character education, and digital society. The findings indicate that the values of Pancasila—belief in God, humanity, unity, democracy, and social justice—remain highly relevant as ethical guidelines for digital behavior, particularly in addressing issues such as digital ethics, cyberbullying, misinformation, and declining social awareness. The study also highlights the importance of integrating Pancasila-based character education within educational institutions to foster responsible, ethical, and socially aware digital citizens. Therefore, collaboration among government, educational institutions, and society is essential to internalize Pancasila values through character education and positive utilization of digital technology.
