Idam Ragil Widianto Atmojo — 2024-10-28

The current Indonesian education system requires a comprehensive assessment of students which is summarized in three major aspects: cognitive, psychomotor, and affective. Assessments are carried out to measure the achievement of expected learning indicators and identify learning difficulties. Teachers must know their students' learning difficulties and misconceptions, so appropriate steps can be taken to overcome the problems. One of the solutions is carrying out diagnostic tests. This research aimed to analyze misconceptions about science learning materials in theme VI concerning heat and its transfer to class V of elementary schools. This research was conducted using a qualitative approach. The data collection method was a four-tier diagnostic test and interviews. The sampling technique used purposive sampling, namely all the fifth graders of public elementary school (SDN) 1 Krasak, Boyolali. The research results showed that the average misconception occurring among students was 29.33% which belonged to the low category. The lowest misconception with a percentage of 23.32% was in the sub-concept of conductors and insulators. The highest misconception was in the sub-concept of differences in temperature and heat with a percentage of 36.65%. Factors that caused misconceptions among students were wrong preconceptions, low interest in learning, and inappropriate reasoning.

Exploring the Impact of Learning Management Systems on Learning Processes: Insights from Pre-Service PPG Students Responses

Abdul Wahid — 2024-10-28

The use of LMS in the learning process of PPG Pre-service students has not yet been widely researched. This research aims to analyze and explain the responses of Pre-Service PPG students at Muhammadiyah University of Makassar towards the use of the Learning Management System (LMS) in the learning process. This research is categorized into qualitative descriptive research. A total of 42 Pre-Service Teacher Professional Education (PPG) students participated in this research. Data was collected through questionnaires and unstructured interviews, then analyzed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of this research show that student responses come from four categories, namely experience using LMS, benefits and advantages of LMS, challenges faced, and understanding of the material. The majority of students stated that the LMS made a significant contribution to understanding the learning material, most of them rated the LMS as a tool that was “very helpful” or “helpful” in the learning process. This research also shows that the main challenges faced are related to accessibility, especially in terms of networks and limited internet access. The implications of these findings include the need to improve technology infrastructure, increase support, and train students and lecturers in using the LMS. Apart from that, the integration of technology in the higher education curriculum is also an important aspect that needs to be considered.

Problem Solving Learning with Drawing a Diagram Strategy to Improve Mathematical Reflective Thinking Skills

Yusuf Sodhiqin — 2024-10-28

Mathematics learning in schools today tends to be limited to formula memorization and routine exercises, leading to a lack of cognitive engagement of students. Learning innovations are needed that can develop mathematical reflective thinking skills. This study aims to determine the difference in the improvement of mathematical reflective thinking skills between students who are taught using problem-solving strategies by drawing diagrams and students who are taught by the expository method. This study used a quasi-experiment design with a Randomized Posttest Only Control Group Design, involving a population of 288 grade VIII students. Two groups were randomly selected from clusters, each consisting of 36 students; one group as an experiment and the other as a control. Data were collected through a written test of mathematical reflective thinking ability and analyzed using an independent sample t-test to see significant differences between groups. The results showed that students who were taught with diagramming strategies experienced a significant improvement in mathematical reflective thinking skills compared to the control group. This study concludes that the diagramming strategy is effective in improving mathematical reflective thinking skills and helping students in solving problems systematically.

Haslinda — 2024-10-28

Storytelling in elementary education often faces challenges in engaging students and enhancing their appreciation. Innovative teaching media can address these issues effectively. This study aims to analyze the impact of Powtoon-based animated video media on students' appreciation of storytelling in a third-grade classroom at SD. The research employed a one-group pretest-posttest experimental design, involving 27 students aged 11 to 12 years across 12 learning sessions. Data were collected using pretests and posttests, and were analyzed through data management, statistical analysis, and result interpretation. The results showed a significant increase in the average score from 52.03 on the pretest to 79.44 on the posttest following the Powtoon intervention. Inferential analysis using a t-test revealed a significant difference with a t-value of -8.859 and a critical t-value of 1.705 at a 5% significance level, supporting the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis that Powtoon has a positive effect on students' storytelling appreciation. These findings suggest that Powtoon has potential as an effective educational media for enhancing students' interest and skills in storytelling, thereby supporting the use of technology in education to create a more engaging learning environment.
