DEVELOPMENT OF TAT TWAM ASI INTERACTIVE FLIPBOOK FOR FIFTH GRADE SCIENCE UNDERSTANDING
type: item
description: Students’ understanding of Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) concepts in elementary schools is still relatively low, partly due to the limited use of interactive and contextual learning media in the classroom. In addition, the integration of local wisdom values in science learning remains minimal, even though these values can strengthen students’ character and contextual understanding. Therefore, this study aims to develop interactive Flipbook learning materials that integrate the local wisdom value of Tat Twam Asi. The study also evaluates the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of the developed media in improving fifth-grade students’ conceptual understanding of IPAS. Using the ADDIE model—which comprises the phases of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation—development research (R&D) is the methodology employed. To examine the effectiveness of the developed media, a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest approach was employed. This design was used to measure students’ conceptual understanding before and after using the interactive flipbook. The research subjects consisted of media experts, material experts, language experts, fifth-grade teachers, and fifth-grade students from Elementary School Cluster 5 in Busungbiu District. This research is important because it evaluates the potential of integrating local wisdom values, such as Tat Twam Asi, into digital learning media to improve students’ conceptual understanding of science. Tests, observations, and questionnaires were employed as data gathering methods. With an average Aiken's V value above 0.88, the study's findings demonstrated the interactive Flipbook media's extremely high level of validity. Teachers and students responded very well to the practicality exam, with a proportion exceeding 90%. With an N-Gain value of 0.54, which falls into the medium-to-high range, the effectiveness test demonstrated an improvement in students' comprehension of IPAS principles…

ANALYSIS OF STUDENTS’ MATHEMATICAL PROBLEM SOLVING ABILITIES BASED ON POLYA’S STAGES IN MATHEMATICS LEARNING IN GRADE IV AT SD 25 BANDA ACEH
type: item
description: The low level of mathematical problem-solving ability among elementary school students remains a challenge in mathematics learning, particularly in students’ ability to plan strategies, carry out solution steps, and review their answers. This study aimed to describe and analyze students’ mathematical problem-solving abilities based on George Polya’s stages in mathematics learning for fourth-grade students at SD Negeri 25 Banda Aceh. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. The research subjects consisted of five students selected purposively. Data were collected through problem-solving tests and interviews, while data analysis included data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing based on the indicators of each problem-solving stage, namely understanding the problem, planning the solution, carrying out the plan, and looking back. The results showed that, in general, students were able to understand the given problems, but they still experienced difficulties in planning and carrying out solution steps systematically. In addition, the looking back stage had not been carried out optimally by most students. Overall, students’ mathematical problem-solving ability was categorized as moderate. This category indicates that students were able to fulfill some of the problem-solving indicators, but had not demonstrated consistent and optimal performance across all stages. Specifically, two students were able to complete all stages, one student experienced difficulties at the planning and implementation stages, while the other two students experienced difficulties at the planning, implementation, and looking back stages. These findings indicate the need to strengthen the planning, implementation, and reflection stages in the learning process so that students’ mathematical problem-solving abilities can develop optimally.

DEEP LEARNING APPROACH IMPLEMENTATION IN SCIENCE EDUCATION IN SIXTH GRADE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL: PERSPECTIVES OF TEACHERS AND STUDENTS
type: item
description: This study examines the implementation of a deep learning approach in sixth-grade science learning at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Miftahul Ulum Pontianak Utara. Grounded in the demands of 21st-century education, deep learning emphasizes meaningful, reflective, and student-centered learning to enhance conceptual understanding and higher-order thinking skills. This research employed a qualitative case study design, with data collected through in-depth interviews with science teachers and supported by literature review. Data were analyzed descriptively to identify implementation patterns, challenges, and teacher strategies. The findings indicate that deep learning has begun to be implemented through the use of audio-visual media and discussion methods, which promote active engagement, critical thinking, and improved conceptual understanding among students. However, the implementation remains suboptimal due to several constraints, including limited teacher understanding, insufficient professional training, inadequate infrastructure, and variations in student participation. To address these challenges, teachers utilize instructional videos and structured discussions as adaptive strategies. The study highlights the need for continuous professional development, improved learning resources, and stronger institutional support to optimize deep learning practices. These findings provide practical insights for developing more effective, contextual, and student-centered science learning aligned with the Merdeka Curriculum.

THE EFFECT OF THINK-PAIR-SHARE AND EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE ON SOCIAL SCIENCE LEARNING OUTCOMES THROUGH TOLERANCE ATTITUDES
type: item
description: This study was motivated by the low IPAS learning outcomes of students at SDN 1 Trenceng Tulungagung, as indicated by the low level of learning mastery (±35%) and the lack of tolerance attitudes in learning interactions. The conventional learning approach that still dominates classroom instruction is considered unable to optimize the achievement of cognitive and social learning objectives. This study aims to analyze the effect of students’ perceptions of the implementation of the Think Pair Share (TPS) learning model and emotional intelligence on IPAS learning outcomes through tolerance attitudes as a mediating variable. This study employed a quantitative approach with an explanatory correlational design. The sample consisted of 59 students determined using the Isaac and Michael formula. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires and documentation of learning outcomes, and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling based on Partial Least Squares (PLS-SEM) with SmartPLS. The results show that students’ perceptions of the implementation of the TPS model have a positive and significant effect on tolerance attitudes (β = 0.451; t = 4.215; p < 0.001) and learning outcomes (β = 0.312; t = 2.965; p = 0.003). Emotional intelligence also has a significant effect on tolerance attitudes (β = 0.389; t = 3.874; p < 0.001) and learning outcomes (β = 0.330; t = 3.450; p = 0.001). Furthermore, tolerance attitudes significantly affect learning outcomes (β = 0.322; t = 3.102; p = 0.002) and mediate the effects of both variables. The R² values indicate that the model explains 54.2% of the variance in tolerance attitudes and 61.8% of the variance in learning outcomes.

LOWER-GRADE TEACHERS’ STRATEGIES FOR OVERCOMING OBSTACLES IN IMPLEMENTING INDEPENDENT CURRICULUM IN INDONESIAN LANGUAGE SUBJECTS
type: item
description: This study aims to examine the challenges faced by lower-grade teachers and the strategies used in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum in Indonesian language learning at SDS Ulumuddin. The research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving lower-grade teachers and the school principal. The findings indicate that challenges occur at the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages. In the planning stage, teachers experienced difficulties in understanding the Merdeka Curriculum concepts, preparing teaching modules, and limited technological skills. During implementation, challenges included students’ varied reading abilities, low reading interest, and limited use of learning media. In the evaluation stage, teachers encountered difficulties in applying assessment principles aligned with the Merdeka Curriculum. To address these challenges, teachers implemented several strategies, such as participating in training programs, independently developing teaching modules, using varied media and project-based learning, providing additional support for students with reading difficulties, and conducting continuous assessment. These strategies contributed to increased student participation, motivation, and understanding, although literacy development still requires ongoing support.

DEVELOPING COMMUNICATION AND PROBLEM SOLVING IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL MATHEMATICS LEARNING THROUGH PROJECT-BASED LEARNING
type: item
description: The low levels of mathematical communication and problem-solving skills among elementary school students in Indonesia are a serious concern, as reflected in the 2019 TIMSS scores, which fell below the international average (397 out of 487), and the PISA report, which indicates that Indonesian students’ higher-order thinking skills still lag behind those of other Southeast Asian countries. The dominance of conventional, teacher-centered teaching methods is considered one of the main factors hindering the development of these two 21st-century competencies. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model as an alternative instructional strategy for developing elementary students’ communication and problem-solving skills in mathematics. The study employed a quasi-experimental method with a pre-test and post-test control group design, involving 60 fifth-grade students from two elementary schools in South Jakarta. Data were collected through problem-solving ability tests, mathematical communication assessment rubrics, and learning observation sheets. The results showed that students who learned using PjBL demonstrated significant improvements in problem-solving skills (t = 4.523, p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 1.12) and mathematical communication (t = 3.876, p < 0.001, Cohen’s d = 0.95) compared to the control group using conventional learning methods. The improvement in the experimental group reached 41% for problem-solving and 44% for mathematical communication, while the control group improved by only 16% and 15%, respectively. These findings indicate that PjBL proved effective in the context of this study and demonstrate its potential for continued use as a learning strategy to develop 21st-century skills in mathematics education at the elementary school level.

A SPEAK CUSTOM: HOW THE MARKOBAR TRADITIONAL CEREMONY AFFECTS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHER EDUCATION STUDENTS' SPEAKING SKILL
type: item
description: Speaking is one way to convey messages and mandates verbally. In this process, the speaker acts as an encoder, using language codes to send messages and mandates. These messages are then received by the listener who serves as a decoder, breaking down the codes conveyed to provide meaning and interpretation. This communication process occurs interactively, with speakers and listeners alternating roles, creating a dynamic reciprocal communication flow. The goal of this research is to ascertain how the application of the Markobar custom be learning strategy impacts the speaking abilities of fifth grade Elementary School Teacher Education. Markobar, an oral tradition from the Mandailing culture, was transformed into a learning strategy that focuses on delivering messages in turns, with politeness and structure. A quantitative approach with an experimental design was employed in this study. Class A, the experimental group, received a learning intervention using Markobar, and Class B, the control group, utilized the lecture method. The data collcetive involved a speaking skills observation sheet that comprised indicators of expression, fluency, sentence structure, word choice, and content accuracy. The outcomes of the tests for normality and homogeneity indicated that the data followed a normal distribution and was homogeneous. The significance value for Hypothesis was 0.000 < 0.05. it means, the use of Markobar significantly affected the enhancement of students' speaking skills. This study's findings suggest that the Markobar strategy is effective for enhancing students' speaking skills and serves as a significant initiative for local culture preservation in education. Deviations from expected outcomes—such as persistent student passivity—can be attributed to heterogeneous student backgrounds, where not all comprehend Mandailing language/terms, coupled with limited rehearsal time for markobar exercises, preventing universal achievement of advanced proficiency levels.

THE IMPACT OF CHILD-FRIENDLY LIBRARIES ON EDUCATIONAL BEHAVIOR OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN TEGAL REGENCY
type: item
description: The low reading interest among elementary school students in Indonesia is a critical issue, often exacerbated by school library conditions that are rigid, non-ergonomic, and visually unappealing. This study aims to deeply analyze the impact of child-friendly library interior design innovations on the formation of educational behavior among students in Tegal Regency. This research serves as a response to the "unattractive" library phenomenon by proposing a holistic design intervention. Using a qualitative approach with an instrumental case study design, the research was conducted in three elementary schools participating in the National Child-Friendly Library program: SD Negeri Rangimulya, SD Negeri Dampyak 02, and SD Negeri Procot 03. Data were collected via triangulation techniques, including participatory observation, structured interviews with principals, teachers, and students, and extensive documentation. The data were then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The results indicate that interior design transformations focusing on three core elements physical (vibrant colors, zoning, ergonomic furniture), environmental (lighting, ventilation), and inclusivity successfully created a more stimulating, safe, and comfortable library atmosphere. This spatial transformation significantly impacted students' educational behaviors in multidimensional ways. First, there was a surge in Independent Visit Initiatives, indicating a shift from passive to active literacy interest. Second, Persistence and Focus improved, evidenced by longer durations of reading time ("time on task") facilitated by comfortable seating options like bean bags and carpets. Third, Positive Social Interaction flourished, where the library became a hub for collaborative learning and discussion, fostering mutual respect. Fourth, Curiosity and Exploration were heightened through accessible low-shelving and thematic visual displays. It is concluded that library interior design serves no…

REFLECTIVE SPIRITUAL LITERACY MODEL THROUGH PRAYER AND ASMAUL HUSNA HABITUATION FOR STRENGTHENING RELIGIOUS CHARACTER IN ELEMENTARY STUDENTS
type: item
description: This study aims to develop and describe a reflective spiritual literacy model implemented through the habituation of reciting prayers and Asmaul Husna to strengthen elementary school students’ religious character. This research employed a qualitative approach with a case study design conducted at SDN Serang 20. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, questionnaires, and documentation, and analyzed using an interactive model with triangulation techniques.The findings reveal that the implementation of reflective spiritual literacy transforms ritual religious activities into meaningful and reflective practices. Approximately 90% of student responses fall into the appropriate category, indicating improvements in spiritual awareness, worship habits, self control, and social religious attitudes. The model integrates three main stages: guided habituation, contextual meaning making, and structured reflection. These results demonstrate that reflective spiritual literacy is effective in fostering internalization of religious values and promoting sustainable character development. The study contributes an integrative model that shifts religious habituation from mechanical routines to reflective and transformative learning experiences.

DEVELOPMENT OF AN ACEHNESE CULTURE-BASED TEACHING MODULE TO ENHANCE ELEMENTARY STUDENTS’ UNDERSTANDING OF MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS IN ACEH BESAR
type: item
description: Mathematics learning in elementary schools is often considered abstract and difficult for students to understand due to the lack of connection with cultural contexts and everyday life. Studies show that most students in Aceh Besar experience difficulties in understanding mathematical concepts, particularly in abstract topics such as fractions and geometry. This is caused by conventional teaching methods, the limited availability of contextual teaching materials, and the lack of integration of local culture as a learning medium. This study aims to develop an Acehnese culture-based teaching module that is valid, practical, and effective in improving elementary school students’ conceptual understanding of mathematics in Aceh Besar. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The research subjects were 118 fourth-grade students from three schools (SDN 1 Peukan Bada, SDN 2 Peukan Bada, and SDN Lamteh) along with three classroom teachers. The instruments used included validation sheets from subject matter, media, and cultural experts, interview guidelines for the module practicality test, and conceptual understanding tests. Data were analyzed using a mixed-methods approach with an Explanatory Sequential design, in which quantitative analysis was followed by qualitative analysis. The results showed that the Acehnese culture-based teaching module was judged valid by experts, practical for teachers to use, and effective in improving students’ mathematical conceptual understanding. This was indicated by the significant increase in average pretest to posttest scores, N-gain values in the high category, paired t-test and Wilcoxon results with p < 0.001, as well as a very large effect size. Therefore, the Acehnese culture-based teaching module is feasible to be used as an alternative teaching material in elementary school mathematics learning. Keywords: Teaching module developmen…

type: item
description: This study aims to determine the effect of using PhET digital media on the mathematics learning outcomes of grade 3 students at SDN 1 Tlogotuwung. The basis of this study is the insufficient education achievement of learners, especially the physical learning outcomes, as well as the lack of optimal use of innovative and interactive learning media in the learning process.This research adopts a qualitative approach, specifically utilizing a Pre-Experimental Design framework. The specific design implemented in this study is the One Group Pretest-Posttest model, which involves measuring the same group of participants before and after the intervention. The population targeted in this study consists of all third-grade students enrolled at SDN 1 Tlogotuwung. From this population, the sample was drawn, comprising two sets of data pretest and posttest results each involving 25 students. To gather the required data, a multiple-choice test was employed as the main research instrument, serving to evaluate students' understanding and learning outcomes before and after the use of the intervention. The data analysis methods employed included the normality test also matched pairs t-test. The data indicated a notable difference in students’ educational attainment who used the PhET digital media and those who did not use it. This is proven by the results of the Double-Sided T-Test 0.000 which shows a significance value of less than 0.05. Thus, it may be inferred that utilizing PhET digital media yields a beneficial impact on improving students' mathematical learning outcomes.

THE EFFECT OF PHET SIMULATION MEDIA ON CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS IN ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT MATERIAL
type: item
description: Finding out how PhET simulations affect the critical thinking abilities of fifth-grade electrical engineering students at SDN Slipi 11 Jakarta Barat is the goal of this study. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design is the research methodology employed. All fifth-grade students make up the study population, and the sample is divided into two classes: a control class that uses traditional instruction and an experimental class that uses PhET simulations. Descriptive tests to measure critical thinking skills that had undergone validity and reliability testing served as the instruments. The normality and homogeneity tests were completed before the hypothesis test. The data were homogeneous and regularly distributed, according to the hypothesis test results. With a significance value of 0.001 (<0.05), the Independent Sample t-test hypothesis test rejected H₀. This demonstrates how using PhET simulations significantly enhances students' capacity for critical thought. PhET simulations also promote active student participation and enhance the interactiveness and enjoyment of learning. PhET simulations could therefore develop into a cutting-edge teaching tool for science in elementary schools. Keywords: PhET Simulation, Critical Thinking, Electrical Circuit Material

Meanwhile, the teacher response scored 95% with a "very interesting" classification, and the student response scored 88.75%, also classified as "very interesting." As a result, this study successfully developed a learning media that can be used by students to overcome difficulties in discovering the volume formulas of curved-sided solids. These figures indicate that this media is highly feasible and captures students' interest. Therefore, the research has been completed, and the media can be used in Grade VI at MIN 22 Aceh Besar. Keywords: Potar Bungkerla Media, Curved-Surface Three-Dimensional Shapes.
