Arina Afiyati Shadikah — Mon, 01 Jan 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Religious tourism has now become one of the favorite destinations for tourists. However, there are still many temples that are not widely known by tourists. Even though many temples, such as Sari Temple, have a certain charm, such as the shape of the temple which is like a house complete with doors and windows. However, there is still minimal information regarding the history and meaning of the temple reliefs. This research was carried out at the Sari temple which is located in Uang Istimewa Yogyakarta. This research aims to analyze the Buddhist values at Sari Temple based on the history of this temple. This research uses a qualitative research design where the research object is Sari Temple itself. There are three techniques used to collect data, namely interviews, literature study, and documentation. The data collected was then analyzed qualitatively through four stages, namely data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and verification or drawing conclusions. The results of the research show that there are three Buddhist values that can be found based on the history of Sari temple, namely samma sankappa (right thoughts) , samma kamanta (right action) and samma vaca (right speech). Each of these Buddhist values has moral values in it.

The Effectiveness of Local Culture-based Teaching Materials for Reading Comprehension Assisted by Adobe Flash CS6 for Fifth Grade Students in Elementary School

Hana Intang, Sulfasyah, Idawati — Mon, 01 Jan 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Teaching materials teachers use for fifth-grade students still need to take advantage of the environment around students. The textbooks used in learning still found examples from outside the student's environment. The examples given are outside the area where students live, so students need to gain initial knowledge of the material being studied. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of local culture-based reading comprehension teaching materials as teaching materials for fifth-grade elementary school students. This type of research is Research and Development (R&D) using the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). The subjects of this research were fifth-grade elementary school students—questionnaire data collection techniques for teacher and student responses, and learning achievement tests. The results of this study indicate that teaching materials for reading comprehension based on local culture get a positive response. It is evidenced by the effectiveness of teaching materials obtained from increasing student learning outcomes obtained by the effectiveness of 0.76% with high criteria. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that this teaching material meets the criteria and is effective and appropriate for use as Indonesian language teaching material. This research can have positive implications for students. It can make students interested in participating independently in the learning process to create superior human resources, increase students' understanding of reading, and be more active and focused in learning.

Made Diah Prabaswari Putri, I Made Suarjana, Kadek Yudiana — Mon, 01 Jan 2024 00:00:00 +0000

This research is motivated by students' low curiosity and behavior when learning mathematics. This is reflected in the unsatisfactory learning outcomes and the need for more motivation among students towards the subject. This study investigates and analyzes the strong influence of strengthening character education based on Tri Hita Karana on the significant improvement of mathematics learning outcomes of fourth-grade elementary school students. This research is an ex-post facto type, correlating the strengthening of character education based on Tri Hita Karana as the independent variable (X) and mathematics learning outcomes as the dependent variable (Y). The population of this study consists of 273 students, and the sample used in this research is 111 students obtained through cluster random sampling technique. Data collection is conducted using questionnaires and tests, and the data are analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical analysis methods. The analysis process involves testing the prerequisite assumptions, including normality and linearity tests. Hypothesis testing is performed using simple regression analysis. The simple regression analysis results show a calculated value of r = 0.673, while the tabulated value at a significance level of 5% is 0.195. It indicates that the calculated value of r (0.673) is greater than the tabulated value (0.195), indicating a significant positive correlation between the strengthening of character education based on Tri Hita Karana and the mathematics learning outcomes of fourth-grade elementary school students. Therefore, it can be concluded that the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted.

Maxsel Koro, Markus Sampe, Sofia G Un Lala, Sumardi W Ndolu, Marfelano Bessie — Mon, 01 Jan 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Technology, which is developing rapidly at this time is a way out to overcome various problems in all aspects of life, one of which is the world of education. Formulating learning objectives based on basic competencies and indicators, guided by the use of operational verbs (KKO), can improve the quality of learning to the maximum. The main problem faced by teachers in developing indicators and learning objectives is determining KKO that are relevant to the level of each domain, of which the KKO spread across cyberspace are numerous and varied. For this reason, this research focuses on developing an operational verb dictionary (KKO) application which aims to help teachers when designing and developing learning tools, especially in formulating learning objectives. The subjects of this research were 12 teachers at SDI Lasiana, Kupang City. The resulting product will be tested for validity, practicality, and effectiveness when implemented by teachers when designing learning tools. The method used is research and development with a development model ADDIE. Validation results from experts show a feasibility level of 92% from material experts and 91.25% from media experts. If qualified it has a very worthy category. The results of the field trial showed that teachers felt interested and helped by the presence of the KKO dictionary application in preparing learning designs with maximum quality with an assessment score of 86.37% which can be interpreted as meaning that the product is very suitable for teachers to use in developing indicators and learning objectives effectively and efficiently.
