Kemampuan Pemecahan Masalah Siswa Kelas XI Dalam Menyelesaikan Soal Matriks Ditinjau dari Self-efficacy

2025-07-15T10:03:07+07:00

This study aims to describe students' problem-solving abilities in solving matrix problems in terms of their self-efficacy levels. The study used a descriptive qualitative approach with three eleventh-grade students representing high, medium, and low self-efficacy categories as subjects. Questionnaires, tests of problem-solving ability, and in-depth interviews were used to gather data. Students who scored higher on the self-efficacy measure were more likely to systematically complete each of the four steps of problem-solving: identifying the issue, developing a plan of action, carrying out the plan, and finally, evaluating the outcomes. Even though they were less confident and accurate, students with medium self-efficacy nonetheless proceeded through all the steps. Students who lacked confidence in their abilities could only complete one level and often struggled to find solutions to issues. These results show that students' mathematical problem-solving skills are significantly impacted by their degree of self-efficacy. Thus, it is essential that mathematics learning methodologies prioritise the cultivation of self-efficacy, particularly when dealing with intricate topics like matrices.

Perbandingan Kepekaan Tempo Peserta Didik Perdesaan dan Perkotaan melalui Body Percussion

2025-08-07T20:40:39+07:00

This study aims to analyze differences in tempo sensitivity among elementary school students in rural and urban areas using the Carl Orff approach through body percussion techniques. Tempo sensitivity is a vital component in music education that supports the development of motor coordination, concentration, and structured thinking. The research employed a comparative experimental method without a control group, involving 44 fifth-grade students from both rural and urban settings. Data were collected using musical skill tests and analyzed through normality and Mann-Whitney tests. The results indicate a significant difference between the rural and urban student groups (significance value 0.009 < 0.05), suggesting that socio-cultural environments influence the development of tempo sensitivity. Urban students demonstrated higher tempo awareness, possibly due to greater exposure to music and popular culture, while rural students faced limitations in musical resources and expressive freedom. These findings highlight the importance of culturally responsive pedagogical approaches in elementary music education.

Analisis Penerapan Karakter Disiplin Dan Tanggung Jawab Dalam Pembelajaran IPS Siswa Di MTs Nur Rahma Kota Bengkulu

2025-08-07T20:52:40+07:00

This study aims to analyze the implementation of discipline and responsibility in Social Studies (IPS) learning at MTs Nur Rahma, Bengkulu City. Discipline and responsibility are two main components in character education that need to be instilled from an early age to shape students' strong and integrated personalities. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The research subjects consisted of two Social Studies teachers and 10 students at MTs Nur Rahma, Bengkulu City. The results show that Social Studies learning at MTs Nur Rahma is designed not only to achieve cognitive goals, but also to shape discipline and responsibility. Teachers foster these two characters through habituation, role models, and assignments that require active involvement and consistency from students. Obstacles faced include low student awareness, lack of parental support, and the influence of a less conducive environment and social media. Supporting factors include the support of the principal, a structured school habituation program, and teacher commitment. It is recommended that there be collaboration between schools, teachers, parents, and the community to create a supportive educational ecosystem, so that the values of discipline and responsibility are firmly embedded in schools and carried over into students' daily lives.

Analisis Watak Dan Nilai-Nilai Pendidikan Karakter Pada Novel Ravendra Pernikahan Rahasia Siswa SMA Karya Winsari

2025-08-07T20:47:41+07:00

This study aims to analyze the character traits and character education values in the novel Ravendra: Pernikahan Rahasia Siswa SMA by Winsari. The background of the study is based on the importance of literature as a reflection of social reality as well as an educational medium. The study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with a content analysis method, with objects in the form of relevant narrative excerpts and dialogues. Character analysis refers to M.H. Abrams' theory, while character education values refer to Thomas Lickona's theory. The results show that the author has succeeded in building character consistently, including dynamic characters (Ravendra, Kiara), static characters (Mama Elis, Syelin, Ken), and antagonists (Alena, Keisya). This novel also contains three dimensions of Lickona's character education, namely moral knowledge, moral feelings, and moral actions, which are reflected in the character's behavior such as empathy, responsibility, and integrity. Based on these findings, the novel Ravendra is suitable for use as a literary literacy teaching material in schools to instill character values in students. The recommendation of this study is the need for further studies on other Indonesian youth literature to enrich contextual character learning resources.

Penerapan Pembelajaran Berbasis Kontekstual dengan "Snack Market Challenge" untuk Meningkatkan Hasil Belajar

2025-07-15T10:04:30+07:00

The main problem in this study was the difficulty students had in forming mathematical models from real situations and manipulating concepts, as well as the passive nature of conventional learning methods. This study aimed to improve the mathematics learning outcomes of grade VIIIA students at Donomulyo Islamic Junior High School in the subject of Two-Variable Linear Equation Systems (SPLDV), which had previously been low. A two-cycle Classroom Action Research (CAR) was conducted on 29 students in class VIIIA at SMP Islam Donomulyo. Cycle I applied an expository method, resulting in an average score of 56.65 with a completion rate of 58.63%. In Cycle II, contextual learning was applied through the “Snack Market Challenge” and balanced group division. The results showed an increase in the average score to 80.65 with a completion rate of 100%, as well as an increase in student enthusiasm and activity. This study recommends the use of contextual learning and educational games to improve student learning outcomes and motivation.

Meningkatkan Keterampilan Motorik Halus Anak Melalui Kegiatan Menganyam Pada Kelompok B Di TK Pelita Hati

2025-08-07T20:00:25+07:00

This research is motivated by children's fine motor skills that have not developed optimally. Therefore, it is necessary to improve them with weaving activities using various media. The problem in this study is that coloring is still stiff, like moving fingers, so the coloring results tend to be untidy; children's cutting activities have not been able to cut according to the pattern in the implementation of fine motor learning. This study aims to determine the fine motor skills of children in group B of Pelita Hati Pulau Payung Kindergarten through weaving activities. The subjects were 15 children (6 boys and 9 girls). This research used the Classroom Action Research method. Data collection techniques used were observation and documentation. Data analysis techniques used the formula P = (F/N) x 100% to calculate the percentage of children's fine motor skills. The results showed that the percentage of children's fine motor skills from the initial condition was 33%. In cycle I, it increased to 51%, and in cycle II, it increased to 79.8%. This proves that the weaving method can improve children's fine motor skills at Pelita Hati Pulau Payung Kindergarten.
