<![CDATA[This study aimed to analyze the needs of students for jumping task-oriented electronic assessments that can be used to measure students' soft skills and hard skills competencies. Jumping task-oriented electronic assessments can help students improve students' critical thinking skills, in addition to electronic assessments that can make it easier for students to access these assessments anywhere and anytime. This research was conducted at SDN Berundung, Ketapang District, South Lampung with a sample of 5th grade students consisting of 52 students. The data were analyzed descriptively to determine the implementation of the assessment that had been carried out and how far the assessment was able to measure the soft skills and hard skills competencies of students. The results of the analysis show that the assessment has not been carried out electronically and the students' critical thinking skills have not been obtained. Students are judged to need assessment instruments that can be accessed anywhere and can develop students' critical thinking levels. The use of electronic assessment instruments can also train students' skills in using electronic devices, in this case, it can be a laptop or a chromebook.]]>

<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to develop valid, practical, and effective context-based (CTL) worksheets for elementary school students in the fifth grade. We used the Borg and Gall's model for research and development. This study was conducted in an urban elementary school in Bandar Lampung city in Indonesia among teachers and fifth grade students. To collect data, we used a variety of research instruments, including tests and questionnaires. We also used expert judgment for validation. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses were performed on the collected data. Based on the results of expert validation and responses to the questionnaire distributed to the research participants, the findings suggest that the CTL-based worksheets we developed in this study were valid and practical with a significance value of <0.05 obtained from the N-Gain test and paired sample t-test. This implies that the CTL-based teaching materials were effective in improving the critical thinking skills of fifth-grade elementary school students.]]>

<![CDATA[The purpose of this research was to develop realistic problem-based instructional materials that were both valid and practical in order to assist students in successfully enhancing their conceptual comprehension. We adopted the Borg and Gall's research and development model. During the process, we involved a total of seven teachers and 196 fifth-grade students in a public elementary school in Bandar Lampung, Lampung Province on the Indonesian island of Sumatra. We used several instruments including observation, questionnaire, and tests for data collection followed by descriptive statistics, t-test, and proportion test to test the effectiveness of the instructional materials being developed. The findings suggest that the realistic problem-based mathematics instructional materials that were developed are valid and practical to use. In other words, the instructional materials successfully help fifth-grade students enhance their conceptual comprehension. Following the findings are a discussion of the limitations and suggestions for future research]]>

<![CDATA[Education is a process to humanize humans. The development of education is undergoing rapid changes in Indonesia due to the impact of COVID-19 and MBKM policies. It is at this time that digital transformation in education is running fast, it requires the readiness of educational institutions, teachers, students, and parents. This study aims to analyze the digital transformation of Islamic educational institutions in responding to the MBKM curriculum with the paradigm of Progressivism. This study uses a literature review as a method. Data was obtained from observations and interviews of researchers with several managers of Islamic higher education institutions in Ponorogo. The data that has been obtained were analyzed with the perspective of John Dewey's Progressivism education theory in his book Education of democracy. The results showed that Islamic educational institutions in Ponorogo quickly responded to changes in the education model with digital transformation so that they could implement the MBKM curriculum implemented in Islamic educational institutions under the Ministry of Religion of the Republic of Indonesia. From the perspective of the educational flow of John Dewey's progressivism in education, the learning process of students must be given the freedom to express opinions. Students must be active and not just accept the knowledge given by the teacher. Likewise, the teacher must create an atmosphere so that students always feel thirsty for knowledge. Managers of educational institutions must also understand how education is carried out. Education managed by people who do not understand the problem of education will hinder education itself and the manager of educational institutions must be progressive in making policies because the development of education is always dynamic.]]>

<![CDATA[This study explores the probability if artificial intelligence can replace humans in the classroom. It identifies the limitations of artificial intelligence and the prevalence of human-level intelligence in education. Artificial intelligence is conceptualized and the research gaps in comparing artificial and human-level intelligence are identified. Comparative research method and explorative research design are adopted to guide this study. Secondary data is utilized with the use of a systematic desk research method and content analysis is used to explain the concepts and their relationship to each other. Three research objectives are used to assess human superiority to AI, identify limitations of AI and proffer measures to encourage collaboration between human-level and artificial intelligence.

<![CDATA[The present study investigates the influence of opportunities to learn (OTL) and mathematics teaching efficacy beliefs (MTEB) towards mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT). Using a structured questionnaire together with paper and pencil test adapted from the literature reviewed, data were collected from 187 pre-service elementary teachers in Institute of Teacher Education Indonesia. Data were analyzed using Smart PLS 3.0. The result of the structural equation model indicated that both OTL-Practicum (β = 0.395, p < 0.001) and OTL-Program (β = 0.324, p < 0.001) were positively related to MKT. The second regression analysis was to examine the impact of mathematics teaching efficacy belief on the MKT. The results showed that mathematics teaching outcome expectancy belief (MTOEB) (β = 0.322, p < 0.001) was positively related to MKT, whereas personal mathematics teaching efficacy belief (β = 0.017, p > 0.1) was not related to MKT. Overall, the belief and OTL factors explain a total of 54% variance in MKT. Implications from these findings to the successful teacher's education program implementation in Indonesia were further elaborated]]>
