<p><em>The development of student character has become a primary concern in the field of education, particularly in instilling the values of discipline from an early age. One relevant approach in this effort is the Moral Knowing approach, which emphasizes the importance of moral understanding and knowledge in shaping behavior. This study aims to describe the implementation of the Moral Knowing approach in shaping students' discipline character at SDN 02 Ngadiluwih. This approach is believed to foster students' moral awareness as a foundation for acting in accordance with prevailing values. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method. Data were collected through observation, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation of school activities. The research subjects consisted of classroom teachers, students, and the principal. Data were analyzed through the processes of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the Moral Knowing approach is implemented through various strategies, such as habituation of morning and afternoon routines, teacher role modeling, use of visual media like character value posters, and student involvement in extracurricular activities that emphasize discipline, such as Scouts. Through these activities, students not only learn the meaning of discipline but also understand the moral reasons behind it and demonstrate more orderly behavior in both academic and social activities. The conclusion of this study is that the Moral Knowing approach is effective in shaping students’ discipline character through the enhancement of moral awareness, the reinforcement of values, and consistent habituation within the school environment.</em></p>Asri DarwantiEndang FauziatiAchmad FathoniMinsih Minsih

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4194
<p><em>This study aims to analyze the implementation of smart campuses across various higher education institutions in Indonesia and to identify the challenges and strategies involved in supporting the three pillars of higher education (tridarma). Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews with six informants consisting of lecturers, students, and IT experts from both academic universities and vocational institutions. The findings indicate significant variation in the adoption of smart campus technologies, influenced by infrastructure readiness, digital literacy levels, and institutional priorities. Academic universities tend to adopt administrative and digital learning systems more rapidly, while vocational institutions focus on the practical application of technology for industrial training. The main challenges identified include limited access to internet infrastructure and digital devices, as well as low digital literacy, particularly among senior faculty and students. In response, many institutions have initiated digital literacy training and the development of integrated information systems. This study highlights the need for a standardized and adaptable smart campus framework tailored to each institution’s context. Furthermore, collaboration between universities and technology providers is considered essential for accelerating campus-wide digital transformation. The results of this research are expected to serve as a reference for policymakers and institutional leaders in formulating more effective, sustainable, and inclusive strategies for smart campus development in the era of digital transformation in higher education.</em></p>Stefani Made Ayu Artharini KoesantoGunawan WiradharmaMario Aditya PrasetyoKarina Pramita Ningrum

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4187
<p><em>Student disciplinary behavior is a crucial component in supporting the success of the learning process at school. Students with a high level of discipline tend to be more focused, responsible, and respectful of applicable rules. In this context, teachers play a strategic role in instilling discipline values through guidance, role modeling, and consistent as well as continuous supervision. This study aims to determine the relationship between the teacher's role and the disciplinary behavior of fourth-grade students at SDN 005 Kempas Jaya, Kempas District. The method used was a quantitative approach with a survey technique. The data collection instrument was a questionnaire that had undergone validity and reliability testing to ensure the appropriateness and accuracy of the data collected from respondents. The results showed that out of 15 statement items in the questionnaire, 12 were declared valid based on the Product Moment correlation test using SPSS version 22. The reliability test using Cronbach’s Alpha yielded a score of 0.900 for the teacher’s role variable and 0.732 for the student disciplinary behavior variable. Both values exceed the minimum threshold of 0.60, indicating that the instrument is reliable and suitable for use in this study. The normality test showed that the data were normally distributed (Sig. > 0.05), the homogeneity test showed homogeneous data variance (Sig. > 0.05), and the linearity test indicated a linear relationship between variables (Sig. = 0.007 < 0.05). The t-test result showed that tcount = 2.947 > ttable = 2.048 with a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05. This indicates a significant relationship between the teacher’s role and students’ disciplinary behavior. In conclusion, the more optimal the teacher’s role in guiding, directing, and enforcing discipline, the higher the quality of student discipline behavior in the elementary school environment.</em></p>Cicih AndiniSiti Quratul Ain

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4205
<p><em>This study examines the efforts of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers in evaluating student learning outcomes at SMPN 3 Ponjong, Gunungkidul, Yogyakarta. The background of this study is the decline in students' enthusiasm and focus in learning PAI in class. The purpose of this study is to identify the forms of evaluation used by PAI teachers. Using descriptive qualitative research methods with a case study approach, researchers collected data through observation, interviews, and documentation. Triangulation of methods and sources was used to test the validity of the data, while data analysis used the Miles and Huberman technique which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that PAI teachers implemented three types of learning evaluation. First, formative assessment through daily assignments in the form of practice questions that allow teachers to monitor the development of students' understanding in real-time and provide immediate feedback. Second, summative assessment carried out at the end of the learning period using test (oral and written) and non-test (performance, work, and portfolio) techniques. Report card scores show good cognitive achievement, although weaknesses are still found in aspects of religious practice such as reading and writing the Qur'an. Third, authentic assessment assesses students' ability to apply knowledge to real contexts through projects to make learning videos of worship and direct practice of religious activities. These three evaluation methods proved effective in improving students' conceptual understanding and practical skills, as well as increasing motivation and learning focus. This study concludes that a comprehensive evaluation approach that covers cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects is essential in PAI learning to ensure students not only understand the theory of Islamic teachings but are also able to apply it in their daily lives.</em></p>Hanifah Miftahul JanahNurul Latifatul Inayati

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4220
<p>This study aims to analyze the role of the school principal as a manager in the implementation of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5) within the Merdeka Curriculum at SD Negeri 2 Sanggrahan, Kranggan District, Temanggung Regency. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection through interviews, observations, and documentation. The obtained data were analyzed using thematic analysis techniques to gain an in-depth understanding of the implementation of P5 and the role of the principal in managing the curriculum. The results of the study show that SD Negeri 2 Sanggrahan has successfully implemented the Merdeka Curriculum, although it is not a model school, with a focus on the development of student character through the dimensions of the Pancasila Student Profile such as independence, cooperation, critical thinking, and creativity. The role of the school principal as a manager is crucial in ensuring the success of this program, with structured steps in the planning, organizing, and supervising the implementation of P5. The principal also plays a key role as an instructional leader who fosters collaboration among teachers, students, parents, and the community in supporting the implementation of this character-based project. However, challenges related to limited infrastructure and less-than-optimal community involvement still need to be addressed. This study recommends enhancing technology facilities, strengthening critical and creative thinking dimensions among students, and improving teacher competencies through continuous training. Furthermore, the involvement of parents and the community in supporting the implementation of P5 should be increased through more intensive socialization. Thus, it is expected that SD Negeri 2 Sanggrahan will continue to develop as an effective school in implementing the Merdeka Curriculum and serve as a model for other schools in fostering student character and academic competence holistically.</p>Nur Mei Laidatul SofianaYovitha YuliejantiningsihMaryanto Maryanto

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4254
<p><em>The implementation of the Child Protection Act in schools has had a significant impact on disciplinary practices. This policy encourages schools to exercise greater caution in imposing sanctions, especially those involving physical and verbal actions that could be categorized as violence. The background of this study is the emerging dilemma faced by teachers in balancing the enforcement of school regulations while avoiding legal violations, resulting in anxiety when taking disciplinary action and increasing conflicts such as parental protests and reports to authorities. This study aims to analyze the impact of the Child Protection Act on school disciplinary practices and offer resolution strategies. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, using in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies conducted in several primary and secondary schools. The results show that the implementation of the law has created an imbalance between teacher authority and children's rights, complicating classroom management dynamics. Many schools have subsequently revised their codes of conduct to align with child protection principles. The study concludes that there is a need for discipline approaches based on guidance and respect for children's rights, intensive teacher training in positive discipline, and the development of additional regulations that proportionally protect the role of educators. Collaboration among teachers, parents, and policymakers is crucial to establishing a disciplinary system that is fair, educational, and consistent with the protection of children's rights.</em></p>Siti Ari MursalinaZulfah ZulfahNurkolis Nurkolis

<p><em>Spiritual education has an important role in shaping the character of students, especially at the junior high school level. One of the efforts to strengthen spiritual education in schools is through the implementation of the Monday-Thursday Fasting program. This study aims to determine the implementation of the Monday-Thursday Fasting program and its impact on the development of students' spiritual character at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Kartasura. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through direct observation, interviews with teachers and students, and analysis of relevant documents. The results showed that this program has been running effectively and structured. The Monday-Thursday Fasting program succeeded in increasing discipline, patience, emotional control, sincerity, and forming social solidarity among students. Observations showed a decrease in negative verbal behavior and increased spiritual awareness. Despite obstacles such as limited control outside the school environment and decreased student stamina, the school was able to make adjustments through special policies such as compressed class schedules and student health support. Program evaluation is carried out on an ongoing basis through teacher observation and regular communication with parents. These findings support Bronfenbrenner's theory on the importance of school and family interactions in shaping student character as well as ta'dib theory in Islamic education. In conclusion, the Monday-Thursday Fasting program contributes greatly to building a religious school environment, improving students' spiritual intelligence, and becoming a strategic model in the development of character education based on Islamic values in schools.</em></p>Muhammad Faruq Abbad RosidiHakimuddin Salim

<p><em>Every individual has a need to obtain education and learning. However, in this process, a sense of enthusiasm is needed which is formed through motivation to learn. With the enthusiasm to learn, individuals can gain more interest in understanding the learning that is taught. Motivation to learn is a key factor in students' academic success. Several aspects that can influence learning motivation are family support, self-concept and self-regulation. This study aims to analyze (1) the influence of family support on learning motivation, (2) the influence of self-regulation on learning motivation, (3) self-concept on learning motivation, (4) family support on self-regulation, (5) motivation of family support on self-motivation through self-regulation as a mediating variable and (6) self-concept on self-motivation through self-regulation as a mediating variable. The population in this study were students of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta with a total of 110 students selected using an online survey technique. Data were collected through a questionnaire that measured family support, self-concept, self-regulation, and learning motivation. The data analysis technique was carried out using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The results of this study indicate that (1) self-concept has a significant effect on self-regulation. (2) family support does not have a significant effect on self-regulation (3) family support also does not influence learning motivation. However, (4) self-regulation is proven to have a positive and significant effect on student learning motivation. The conclusion of this study confirms that self-regulation plays an important role in increasing learning motivation, so strategies are needed that can help students develop self-regulation skills effectively.</em></p>Anisa NurgiyantiMuhammad Fahmi Johan Syah

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4262
<p><em>This study aims to determine the principal's leadership strategy in the implementation of the Qur'an Tahfizh program at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Blora. The scope of this research includes participatory planning and implementation, leadership methods in monitoring and evaluating the program, as well as the obstacles faced and the solutions taken. The research, which was conducted using a qualitative approach with a case study design, collected data through in-depth interviews with the principal, observation, and document review. The results showed that the principal applies visionary and transformational leadership styles that refer to the principles of Emaslin (Entrepreneur, Manager, Administrator, Leader, and Motivator). The Tahfizh program that started in 2015 is divided into two tracks: regular with a minimum target of 1 juz and dormitory with a target of 15 juz. Program management strategies include vision-mission adjustment, integration into the curriculum, collaboration with credible institutions (PUTM and Pondok Gontor), use of the Ummi method, and periodic evaluation every three months in collaboration with UMMI Korda Blora. The main challenges of implementation include decreased student motivation, limited tuition fees, difficulties in dormitory adaptation, and managing stakeholder expectations. The principal overcame these challenges through program flexibility, a cross-subsidy system, active communication with parents, and comprehensive evaluation through munaqasyah and daily tasmi'. The success of the program was demonstrated by 6 out of 44 boarding students (13.6%) successfully completing 30 juz of memorization. This research underscores the importance of adaptive and student-centered leadership in implementing innovative Islamic education programs. The Tahfizh program is integrated with the school's vision of creating “Cemara” graduates (smart, independent, and morally good), reflecting a holistic approach in Islamic education.</em></p>Muhammad Hafid Al HusainTriono Ali Mustofa

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4240
<p>This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the letter card box game as an educational medium in enhancing the letter recognition skills of children aged 4–5 years at TK Mutiara Basmallah 1 Tembalang. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data gathered through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results reveal that the use of the letter card box game significantly improves children's abilities in identifying letter shapes, names, and phonetic sounds. The media successfully captures children’s attention and fosters a joyful, engaging, and interactive learning atmosphere. By incorporating visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles, this media helps strengthen children's cognitive engagement and retention in the learning process. Furthermore, it promotes active participation and collaboration among peers during activities. However, the study also identifies several challenges, including the limited availability of the media, restricted instructional time, and difficulties encountered by some children in distinguishing visually similar letters. These obstacles can be mitigated through the application of more diverse instructional strategies and continuous collaboration among teachers, parents, and the school. Overall, the letter card box game proves to be an effective medium for developing early literacy in young children. It is therefore recommended that schools adopt this media in their curriculum and support it through teacher training programs and enhanced educational resources.</p>Yayuk Desti RahayuAryo Andri NugrohoNgatmini Ngatmini

<p><em>The main competencies of 21st century education emphasize critical thinking and problem-solving skills. A subject with great potential for developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills is mathematics. However, the role of mathematics, which is so important and bridges various sciences, is not in line with its practice. Mathematics is considered difficult, feared and considered an unpleasant lesson because it is not contextually linked. The purpose of this research is to integrate the values of tawhid meaningfully in mathematics learning through the researcher's personal experience so as to produce changes in ways of thinking, ways of understanding and ways of teaching mathematics. This research is transformative research with autoethnography method. This certainly involves the researcher as a subjectivity in obtaining data and utilizing the dimensions of the five ways of knowing owned by transformative research in helping the research process, starting from cultural-self knowing, relational knowing, critical knowing, visionary and ethical knowing and knowing in action. Data collection techniques in obtaining research data include writing critical autoethnography, writing as inquiry and literature study. The results showed that meaningful mathematics learning can be realized through integration with Islamic values, especially tawhid asma wa sifat. This approach not only enriches conceptual understanding, but also touches the spiritual side, so that math no longer feels like a difficult science, hard to understand and separate from life. Through autoethnographic reflection, the researcher found that numbers that were previously considered abstract such as the number 1 and strange odd numbers, turned out to have a deep spiritual depth of meaning when associated with the concept of tawhid.</em></p>Annis Annafik MajidNeni MarianaRuqoyyah Fitri

<p><em>The lack of effective local culture-based learning media is a challenge in instilling the value of independence in character education in elementary schools. This study aims to (1) describe the character value of independence in the Collection of Fairy Tales of Si Kancil and (2) describe the strengthening of the character value of independence as part of the teaching material for Indonesian language content in elementary schools. This research uses descriptive qualitative method with literary sociology approach and dialectical technique. The main data in the form of expressions that reflect the value of independence are taken purposively from five stories in the Collection of Fairy Tales of Si Kancil by M.B. Rahimsyah A.R. published by Lingkar Media in 2013. Secondary data were obtained from academic literature related to character, literary sociology, and children's literature. Data collection was conducted through literature study, analytical reading, and note-taking, with Miles & Huberman model analysis and validation through triangulation of methods and sources. The results showed that the Collection of Fairy Tales of Si Kancil contains four aspects of independence: emotional, economic, intellectual, and social. These values can be strengthened in Indonesian language learning through interactive strategies, such as group discussion, dramatization, story rewriting, as well as written reflection and case study. This study concludes that the collection of Fairy Tales of Si Kancil contains values of independence including emotional, economic, intellectual, and social aspects, which are relevant for strengthening students' character and can be effectively integrated in Indonesian language learning through interactive strategies in elementary schools.</em></p>Agus SugiyantoMukti WidayatiVeronika Unun Pratiwi

Implementation benefits from principal leadership, clear directives, and ongoing motivation to encourage active participation from all school members. Supervision is carried out via regular evaluation and follow-up based on established success criteria. Key success factors include stakeholder engagement, adequate facilities, and collaboration with external partners such as health centers. Nevertheless, challenges remain, particularly regarding limited human resources and funding, which must be addressed to ensure program sustainability. This study contributes both scientifically and practically by highlighting the pivotal role of effective, participatory school management especially in planning, leadership, and stakeholder collaboration as the foundation for optimizing and sustaining Child-Friendly School initiatives.</span></p>Dian WijayantiWidya KusumaningsihSoedjono Soedjono

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4371
<p class="my-0" style="margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-ID">This study focuses on the problem of low teacher competence in elementary schools in Petarukan District, Pemalang Regency, where only 46% of 80 schools demonstrate good learning quality. The research aims to analyze the influence of the principal’s role and school culture on teacher competence. Using a quantitative correlational ex post facto design, data were collected from 242 elementary school teachers through Likert-scale questionnaires assessing the principal’s role (managerial, entrepreneurial, and supervisory dimensions), school culture, and teacher competence (pedagogical, personality, social, and professional aspects). Descriptive statistics show the principal’s role is rated fairly well (mean=129.46; ideal midpoint=87), with entrepreneurial development as the strongest dimension and supervision the weakest. Teacher competence also falls within a fairly good category (mean=151.85; ideal midpoint=105), with personality as the strongest and professional competence as the weakest dimension. Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r=0.588; p<0.05) indicates a strong relationship between the principal’s role and teacher competence. Simple linear regression reveals that a 1% improvement in the principal’s role increases teacher competence by 0.598%, explaining 34.6% of variance. Theoretically, these findings reinforce the importance of effective school leadership and positive school culture in fostering teacher competence. Practically, the results recommend strengthening principals’ supervisory functions and entrepreneurial program development, as well as capacity building for principals, to optimize educational quality improvement.</span></p>Mohammad Andi YusufRasiman RasimanSumarno Sumarno

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4375
<p class="my-0" style="margin: 0cm; text-align: justify;"><span lang="EN-ID">This study examines the influence of academic supervision and teacher professionalism on the quality of learning at public elementary schools in Warungpring District, Pemalang Regency. A quantitative correlational approach was used involving 117 teachers selected proportionally. Data were collected through Likert-scale questionnaires measuring teachers’ perceptions of academic supervision, teacher professionalism, and learning quality. Data analysis employed simple and multiple linear regression to test the partial and simultaneous effects of the independent variables on the dependent variable. The results showed that academic supervision had a regression coefficient of 0.602, indicating that every one-unit increase in structured supervision would improve learning quality by 0.602 units. Teacher professionalism also had a regression coefficient of 0.650, meaning that a one-unit increase in ongoing professional development would raise learning quality by 0.650 units. Simultaneously, these two variables contributed 72.6% to the variation in learning quality at the elementary schools. These findings emphasize the importance of structured supervision and ongoing professional development as key strategies for improving learning quality. The study recommends that school principals and education policymakers focus on enhancing these two aspects through continuous training, mentoring, and evaluation programs to support effective learning processes. Further research is also suggested to include other potential variables influencing learning quality to obtain more comprehensive results.</span></p>Lisa AnggraeniWidya KusumaningsihSoedjono Soedjono

<p><em>Students' cognitive understanding of Civic Education (PKn) subject matter is still relatively low, which is one of the fundamental problems in the learning process in elementary schools. This condition is caused by several factors, such as the lack of active student involvement, monotonous learning methods, and minimal use of interesting and interactive media. The purpose of this study was to describe the effect of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by Baamboozle media on the learning outcomes of Civic Education students in grade IV of SDN 14 Pekanbaru. This study used a Pre-Experimental design with the form of One Group Pretest and Posttest. This study involved a sample of 24 students from grade IV of SDN 14 Pekanbaru. Data collection techniques were collected through multiple-choice test questions analyzed by paired sample t-test and simple linear regression. The results of the paired sample t-test showed an average pretest of 63.08 and a posttest of 80.92. Based on the decision-making criteria for the paired sample t-test, sig. p <0.05, then Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Analysis using a simple linear regression test obtained an R Square value of 0.898 or 89.8%. The Baamboozle-assisted PBL model has proven to be an effective effort to improve civics learning outcomes, especially in elementary schools. The novelty of this study lies in the integration of the PBL learning model that focuses on solving real problems collaboratively with the interactive and interesting Baamboozle educational game media. The implication of this finding is that teachers, especially at the elementary school level, need to consider using more innovative and interactive learning approaches to increase students' cognitive engagement and understanding of abstract and conceptual civics material.</em></p>Novi SariZaka Hadikusuma Ramadan

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4576
<p>This study aims to examine in depth the role of scouting activities in fostering student discipline at SMP Negeri 9 Samarinda. The background of this study is the low awareness of student discipline which can be seen from tardiness, incompleteness of attributes, and violation of rules even though school sanctions have been applied. Scouting was chosen as an informal media that is loaded with the values of discipline, responsibility, cooperation, and toughness, so that it is considered effective as a character building strategy. This research uses a qualitative descriptive method with direct observation techniques, interviews with coaches, schools, students, and documentation of activities such as attendance and competition reports. The results of the study show that activities such as routine exercises, marching, outbound, camps, and skill competitions are able to increase students' awareness of discipline, neatness, and compliance with rules. The habituation method through weekly exercises, ceremonies, educational sanctions, and awarding achievements has proven to be effective in instilling discipline in a sustainable manner. The pattern of positive and negative reinforcement forms the intrinsic motivation of students so that they obey not because of fear of punishment, but because of personal awareness. However, this study also found challenges such as the variability of coach commitment, limited facilities and funds, and the lack of systematic evaluation of student character. Therefore, it is recommended that schools increase the frequency and variety of scouting activities, establish cooperation with parents and external institutions, and train coaches in effective activity management and sanctioning.</p>Indah Dwi LestariSuryaningsi SuryaningsiAsnar AsnarNovita Majid

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4568
<p><em>This study aims to analyze the effect of the use of Wordwall multimedia on the learning outcomes of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) Khulafaur Rasyidin material in Integrated VII grade students at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Medan. The method used is quantitative with a quasi-experimental approach, using a pretest-posttest design in the experimental group given learning with Wordwall multimedia and the control group with conventional media, namely Al-Islam books with a sample of 60 students. The research instrument was a 20-item multiple choice test that had been declared valid and reliable. Data analysis began with descriptive test, Shapiro-Wilk normality test, and Levene homogeneity test, which showed that the posttest data were not normally distributed and the variances were not uniform. Therefore, the Mann-Whitney U nonparametric test was used to test the hypothesis at a significance level of α = 0.05. The results showed that the use of Wordwall multimedia significantly improved students' learning outcomes. The average posttest score of the experimental group, which used Wordwall-based learning, increased from 67.17 to 88.00, showing a substantial improvement. In contrast, the control group that received conventional learning only increased from 57.50 to 71.00. Analysis using the Mann-Whitney U test revealed a U value of 232.50 and Z of -3.241, with p = 0.001. This shows that the difference in the improvement of learning outcomes between the two groups is significant (p < 0.05). With the mean rank of the experimental group's posttest reaching 37.75, much higher than the control group which was only 23.25, it can be concluded that Wordwall multimedia has a significant positive impact on Islamic Religious Education learning outcomes at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Medan. The implication of this result shows that the application of technology in learning can improve the understanding of important concepts in Islamic education.</em></p>Yuliyani YuliyaniMahariah Mahariah

<p><em>This study aims to analyze the influence of gadget usage intensity on the learning motivation of elementary school students. The background of this research stems from concerns over the increasing use of gadgets among children, which may potentially decrease their focus and enthusiasm for learning. This study employs a quantitative approach with a correlational design to examine the relationship between gadget usage intensity as the independent variable and learning motivation as the dependent variable. The research subjects consisted of fifth and sixth-grade students from several private elementary schools under the Dabin Yos Sudarso cluster, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire covering frequency and duration of gadget use, as well as learning motivation indicators based on Uno’s theory. The instrument was tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was conducted using Pearson Product Moment correlation with the help of SPSS version 26. The results show a significant influence between gadget usage intensity and learning motivation, with a regression coefficient value of 0.675 and a significance level of 0.000 (< 0.05). The higher the intensity of gadget use—especially for entertainment and social media—the lower the students’ learning motivation. Learning activities through gadgets tend to be minimal and are unable to compensate for the distractions from non-educational content. The findings highlight the importance of supervision and guidance from parents and teachers in directing gadget usage appropriately, so that technology serves as a learning support rather than a hindrance.</em></p>Nuryati NuryatiHarsono HarsonoMurfiah Dewi WulandariLaili Etika RahmawatiChoiriyah Widyasari

<p><em>Science education in elementary school is crucial for fostering students' scientific understanding and critical thinking skills. However, the low learning outcomes in science among fifth-grade students at SDN 001 Lubuk Terap, evidenced by scores below the Minimum Completeness Criteria (KKM) and less varied teaching methods, poses a significant problem. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the Student Teams Achievement Divisions (STAD) cooperative learning model in improving students' science learning outcomes. Employing a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach with two cycles at SDN 001 Lubuk Terap, this study involved 24 fifth-grade students. Data were collected through observation, tests, and documentation, then analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. The results indicated a significant improvement in both teacher and student activities, as well as overall student learning outcomes. This was reflected by teacher and student activity percentages exceeding 90% in the "Very Good" category, and 100% of students achieving "Good" or "Very Good" in affective and psychomotor aspects. Furthermore, the average cognitive learning outcomes of students sharply increased from a "Sufficient" category in Cycle I to "Very Good" in Cycle II. Thus, this study concludes that the STAD cooperative learning model is highly effective in enhancing the science learning outcomes of fifth-grade students at SDN 001 Lubuk Terap, encompassing improvements in activities, affective, psychomotor, and cognitive learning outcomes. The STAD model is recommended for implementation by science teachers in other elementary schools to improve the quality of learning and student achievement.</em></p>Siti Herli SuhainiDea Mustika

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4703
<p><em>Spiritual intelligence is an essential dimension in the development of students' character, encompassing the meaning of life, moral values, and spiritual relationships with God, others, and nature. Science education (IPA), which has traditionally been neutral toward religious values, in fact holds great potential for integration with spiritual values, particularly within the context of Hindu education. This study aims to examine the integration of Hindu values into science learning as a strategy to foster spiritual intelligence among elementary students at Adi Widyalaya. The method used is a literature review, analyzing various scientific sources and Hindu scriptures to explore the relationship between scientific concepts and values such as Tri Hita Karana, Rwa Bhineda, Ahimsa, Panca Maha Bhuta, and Karma Phala. The findings indicate that integrating these values not only enhances scientific understanding but also cultivates empathy, moral responsibility, and spiritual awareness toward nature. This study contributes scientifically by offering a conceptual framework that integrates science and Hindu spirituality, and practically by providing a foundation for developing science curricula and teaching materials that align with the characteristics of Widyalaya, in support of holistic and transformative education.</em></p>Nyoman Selvia Asta MariyanaIka LestariHerlina Usman

<p><em>Bullying is a repetitive act intended to harm someone both mentally and physically, and this phenomenon is a serious concern in schools. One effective effort to enhance students' understanding of bullying behavior is through the role-play method. This research aims to analyze the influence of the role-play method on improving students' understanding of bullying behavior. The study employed an experimental method with a one-group pretest-posttest design, involving 29 fifth-grade students from SDN 193 Pekanbaru as the sample. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed quantitatively with SPSS version 25 software. The results of the paired t-test showed a significance value of 0.001 (p<0.05). This figure indicates the rejection of the null hypothesis (H0) and the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (H1), proving a significant influence of the role-play method in enhancing students' understanding of bullying behavior. This improvement in understanding was evident from consistently higher posttest scores compared to pretest scores. The role-play method proved effective in facilitating students to internalize various perspectives, comprehend the negative impacts of bullying, and develop empathy, thereby making their understanding of this behavior more comprehensive. Thus, this study concludes that the role-play method is highly effective in improving students' understanding of bullying behavior. The implication of these findings is the importance of integrating role-play as an innovative learning strategy into the school curriculum to foster a safer and bullying-free learning environment.</em></p>Suci RamadaniFebrina Dafit

https://jayapanguspress.penerbit.org/index.php/cetta/article/view/4706
<p><em>History learning in schools still faces various challenges, particularly in terms of instructional innovation. The limited use of digital media and student-centered learning strategies has resulted in low student engagement and weak historical awareness. One subject that requires an innovative approach is the study of Hindu-Buddhist temple remains in the Malang Raya region, which holds significant educational and cultural value. This study aims to design a conceptual model of history learning based on Historical Problem-Based Learning (HPBL) integrated with a digital media tool called Katalog Sejarah (Katarah), in order to enhance learning effectiveness and contextual relevance. The research employs a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, which consists of five phases: Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate. This conceptual study focuses on the design phase without classroom implementation. The design results indicate that integrating HPBL with Katarah has the potential to create more participatory learning, foster critical thinking, and strengthen students’ historical literacy. Katarah, as an interactive visual medium, enables students to explore historical heritage digitally and independently. This model is also aligned with the principles of the Merdeka Curriculum, which emphasizes project-based learning and differentiation. The study concludes that the HPBL-Katarah conceptual model offers an innovative and contextual alternative for history learning and supports the achievement of the Profil Pelajar Pancasila, particularly in the dimensions of critical reasoning and global diversity. Further classroom implementation is needed to empirically test its effectiveness.</em></p>Febry Adi SusmiantoDeny Yudho WahyudiDewa Agung Gede Agung
