Implementation of Problem Based Learning Model in Improving Elementary School Students' Mathematics Learning Outcomes

2024-06-01T13:45:26+00:00

Mathematics learning in elementary schools is intended so that students can master basic Mathematics knowledge and concepts in it and are skilled in applying it to real life. Facts in the field show that many students still have low Mathematics learning outcomes. This study aims to analyze the effect of the problem based learning model on the Mathematics learning outcomes of fifth grade elementary school students. The research design used is Quasi Experimental Research with the type of Non Equivalent Control Group Pre-test Post-test Design. The population in this study was 144 fifth grade elementary school students spread across nine schools. Sampling in this study used the Cluster Random Sampling technique with 16 students as the experimental group and 22 students as the control group. The technique of collecting Mathematics learning outcome data was carried out using a multiple-choice test consisting of 20 questions. Furthermore, the data was analyzed using the t-test. The results obtained were t count = 8.14 and t table = 1.69. The test criteria showed t count (8.24) > t table (,69) so H1 was accepted and H0 was rejected. This indicates that there is a significant influence of the problem-based learning model on the Mathematics learning outcomes of fifth-grade elementary school students.

The results of the study indicate a significant impact of the Index Card Match teaching method on the academic performance of eighth-grade students. This is evidenced by the data analysis, which revealed a significance value of 0.000 using simple linear regression. This value signifies that the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted while the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected, given that the obtained significance value (0.000) is less than 0.05. Therefore, it can be concluded that the implementation of the Index Card Match teaching method has a significant effect on the academic outcomes of eighth-grade students in the subject of Pancasila Education.

Pura Agung Mpu Kuturan: Textual Review and Its Implications in the Formation of Academic Character Based on Ethnopedagogy

2024-02-09T14:02:45+00:00

One of the efforts to construct local values as a basis for instilling ethno-pedagogical characters is to interpret the character of Mpu Kuturan which is manifested through the construction of the Pura Agung Mpu Kuturan at the Sekolah Tinggi Agama Hindu Mpu Kuturan Singaraja, Bali. This research emphasizes philological studies. The researcher reads various manuscripts about the remains of Mpu Kuturan's knowledge as a cultural heritage in Bali. The context is important to examine because it is useful for providing a textual description, especially the reconstruction of local values to be used as a reference for pedagogical values. The stages of the Pura Agung Mpu Kuturan ceremony contain academic values based on ethnopedagogy. First, Melasti Segara and Mapekelem-Mapapada Wewalungan Tawur, meaning the construction of eco-pedagogical values and critical learning media, because they are the personification of the universe. Second, Nyenuk, Ngamargiang Kekundang, Ngaturang Guru lan Bendu Piduka/Ngrsi Bojana, meaning the construction-systematization of the thinking process. This ceremony is carried out by personifying the Panca Dewata: east/Isvara, south/Brahma, west/Mahadeva, north/Vishnu and center/Shiva. The symbolization of colors and the placement of gods in various directions symbolically signify the thinking ability of a learner or academic must be adjusted to the situation and conditions or social gradation of each diverse society. Third, Nangun Ayu-Makebat Daun, as a constructive symbol of metacognitive thinking - open. Makebat daun means opening up a new life or hope. If interpreted, the procession of the ceremonies above is the result of human creativity (as homo-esparan) to visualize or personify the form and presence of God which is abstract in nature into a concrete form. Or in other words, the Hindu religious ritual is a stimulant for learners in describing and contextualizing complex things into simple forms.
