Abstract

This study aims to describe of implementing the "Time Machine" project in improving fourth-grade elementary school students' ability to analyze chain causality and ethical actions in science learning. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method conducted over one learning cycle at one of public elementary school, involving a fourth-grade homeroom teachers, students, and the school principal as research subjects. Data were collected through interviews and structured observations using an observation sheet as the primary instrument, supported by interview guidelines directed at the classroom teacher and principal. Data analysis followed the interactive model, encompassing three stages: data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate that prior to the project implementation, students were only able to identify direct cause-and-effect relationships and limited their ethical judgments to simple right-or-wrong assessments. Following the implementation of the "Time Machine" project, students demonstrated a significant transition in causal reasoning, progressing from identifying immediate causes to constructing systemic causality by predicting chain consequences of actions on the present ecosystem. Furthermore, students' ethical discussions shifted from simple normative responses to in-depth consequentialist analysis, evidenced by their ability to evaluate the moral value of actions based on projected universal impacts. It is concluded that the "Time Machine" project is an effective and authentic learning framework that simultaneously supports the achievement of the critical reasoning and noble moral dimensions of the Pancasila student profile, in alignment with the demands of Indonesia's independent curriculum.

Abstract

This study aims to investigates the eco-school activities function as ecopedagogical practices in developing environmental responsibility among primary school students. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews, and document analysis involving the principal, fourth-grade teacher, eco-school coordinator, students, and parents. The findings reveal that students’ environmental responsibility is primarily developed through consistent, action-based activities embedded in daily school practices, including waste management, water conservation, and habitual ecological behaviors. These practices enable students to construct environmental awareness through direct experience rather than theoretical instruction. The effectiveness of the program is supported by strong leadership, active parental involvement, and collaboration with external environmental organizations, while challenges are reflected in limited facilities and occasional inconsistency in students’ behavior. It can be concluded that this study contributes to the field of ecopedagogy and environmental education by demonstrating that sustained, experience-based eco-school practices. It plays a significant role in shaping students’ environmental responsibility. It also offers empirical insights into how school culture and community involvement strengthen the internalization of environmental values in primary education contexts

Abstract

This study aim to examined elementary school teachers’ information text literacy within the framework of Indonesia’s Minimum Competency Assessment (AKM). The study employed a quantitative approach involving 25 elementary school teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using two researcher-developed instruments: an information text literacy questionnaire and an information-text-based test. The instruments were validated through expert judgment and a limited pilot test prior to administration. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and N-Gain to describe teachers’ performance across three competencies: identifying information, understanding information, and evaluating and reflecting on information. The findings showed improvement in concept mastery, by mean score increasing from the pre-test and the post-test. Teachers’ information text literacy also improved across all assessed aspects, with the highest gain found in identifying information (high), followed by evaluating and reflecting (moderate), while understanding information showed the lowest gain (low). In addition, teachers responded positively to the implemented learning design and was categorized as very practical. These findings indicate that teachers were relatively strong in retrieving explicit information, but still needed support in deeper comprehension and integrative meaning construction. This study provides empirical evidence for strengthening teacher professional development in support of AKM-aligned reading literacy.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Virtual Reality (VR) media integrated with the STEAM approach (VR-STEAM) in improving students' learning understanding. Significant research gaps in this study include the limited availability of VR learning media explicitly aimed at improving elementary school students' sociocultural understanding, as well as the suboptimal integration of the STEAM approach in developing VR media oriented toward sociocultural learning. This study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. Data collection techniques were carried out through pre-test and post-tests as well as observations, which involved an experimental group and a control group. Participants were fifth-grade students who were selected through simple random sampling. A total of 18 students participated, with 9 students in the experimental group (A) and 9 students in the control group (B). Group A receiving learning through VR-STEAM, while Group B learned by using conventional methods. The results indicate that the use of VR-STEAM can improved student engagement, clarify socio-cultural concepts through immersive visualizations, and encourage collaborative and creative skills through STEAM-based projects. Students appeared more focused, engaged in discussions, and enthusiastic about completing group assignments after experiencing learning through VR. This study concludes that structured VR-STEAM integration not only strengthens cognitive understanding but also creates a more contextual and reflective social learning experience.

Abstract

The study aimed to explore the career pathways of Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEEd) graduates under Contract of Service (COS) status who are teaching college students. Specifically, it examined the motivations that led them to pursue college teaching, described their career pathways in the college setting, and identified the opportunities and challenges that characterize their teaching experiences. The study employed a qualitative research method using a descriptive phenomenological design. Colaizzi’s method of data analysis was utilized in interpreting the data gathered from eight (8) informants. Findings revealed that BEEd COS instructors were motivated to enter college teaching because of degree alignment, competitive salary and prestige, opportunities for professional growth, and personal preference for teaching adult learners. Their career pathways were marked by transition, pedagogical adaptation, continuous learning, and personal fulfillment through shaping future educators. The study also found that their experiences involved challenges in instructional and classroom practices, limited resources and facilities, and concerns regarding recognition and compensation. Despite these difficulties, the informants remained committed through adaptability, supportive colleagues, and professional development opportunities. The study concluded that BEEd graduates under COS status were able to succeed in a profession outside their expected specialization through resilience, flexibility, and dedication to teaching. The findings provide valuable insights for higher education institutions and policy makers in developing support systems, training programs, fair employment practices, and career advancement opportunities for contractual college instructors.
