Abstract

Kinesthetic intelligence-based thematic learning is a theme learning approach where learning activities entail more movement and physical activity (kinesthetic) using an active learning paradigm. The fact that each learner has a unique learning and information-capture potential serves as motivation for applying this knowledge. Therefore, it is crucial for teachers to present their lessons in unique and original ways so that students will readily accept them. Applying kinesthetic intelligence-based theme learning has a number of benefits, including making it simpler to directly explain subject to kids because learning includes students' physical abilities. This study aims to characterize learning, how learning is put into practice, and how thematic learning based on kinesthetic intelligence is evaluated in Baros Mandiri 3 Elementary School's second grade. A case study research design was chosen as the research methodology in this study. employing observation and interviewing as data collection methods. The findings of this study are recommendations for (1) kinesthetic intelligence-based learning planning, which comprises, and (2) kinesthetic intelligence-based theme learning implementation. (3) Kinesthetic intelligence class 2-based evaluation of thematic learning, which involves formative and daily evaluation.

Abstract

In a variety of disciplines taught in elementary schools, which frequently need substantial memorizing, the use of mnemonic device techniques has shown to be helpful in facilitating learning and strengthening long-term memory. This study intends to investigate how well various mnemonic device techniques and their theoretical foundations work to improve long-term memory. A literature review methodology was used to create the accumulated findings by analyzing pertinent study results, journal articles, and literature reviews that covered the studied designs. The results of this study show that mnemonic device strategies can help primary school pupils improve their long-term memory. A variety of techniques are included in the mnemonic device techniques, including (1) rhyme, (2) abbreviations, (3) peg word system, (4) loci method, and (5) keyword system. Students can maximize their brains' encoding and retrieval processes, which will boost memory retention, by using the proper mnemonic strategy during the learning process. This helps students remember and retain the information they have learnt. In conclusion, using mnemonic device approaches in primary school instruction can greatly aid pupils in developing long-term memory. As they provide useful tools to aid the learning process and improve students' memory of crucial knowledge, educators and practitioners are encouraged to incorporate these strategies into their teaching practices. The use of mnemonic techniques by students can help them overcome the difficulties associated with memorization and improve their overall learning outcomes.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to examine the correlation between learning styles and student learning outcomes in the Limnology course within the Biology Education Study Program at FKIP UNTAD, during the odd academic year of 2021/2022. The present study employs a quantitative descriptive research methodology. The data was obtained by administering a learning style questionnaire consisting of 23 items to a sample of 30 students enrolled in the Biology Education Study Program at FKIP UNTAD. The data analysis was conducted using the Product Moment correlation test. The findings of the research indicate that during the odd semester of the 2021/2022 academic year, all students enrolled in the Limnology elective course exhibited a preference for visual learning. Nevertheless, a diminished correlation was observed in relation to the association between learning styles and student learning outcomes. The results of this study make two distinct contributions to the current body of literature. The present study describes a taxonomy of participant learning styles, making anticipatory projections based on analogous investigations. Furthermore, this study investigates the influence of different learning styles on the achievement of learning objectives. Moreover, this study incorporates demographic data to control for its impact on educational achievements. The examination and interpretation of the findings from both analyzes will enhance scholarly comprehension of the essential determinants of success in the learning process and their tangible implementation in the field of Limnology education.

Abstract

The purpose of this overview is to map the studies focused on the nature of science in the scientific Scopus journal. The nature of science (NOS) and its impact on pedagogical learning and science education have become central themes of education and research. The Study methodology used in this study is bibliometrics utilising VOS viewer. Specifically, research results analysis and coward analysis were carried out. The term NOS has ever been analyzed in the Scopus database. A total of 2756 papers were analyzed consisting of 2048 articles, 202 conference articles, 56 books, 263 book chapters, and 187 other papers were analyzed. The results report that studies in the field of education of NOS more increased and have continued uninterruptedly up to the present day, even though interest generated in the scientific community has been irregular. It can be concluded that NOS studies have not had an established and robust line of research over time, this study can be observed that the trends in this aspect are focused on science education.

Abstract

The problem with this study is that the biological learning outcomes of SMA Lab School UPI students in class XI IPA 1 remain low. The objective of this study is to enhance the biology learning outcomes of students by utilizing image-based worksheets. The researcher conducted classroom action research in two cycles in order to accomplish this goal. This study involves collaborative action research in the classroom that makes use of the Kemmis and Taggart methodology. Students in class XI IPA 1 at SMA Lab School UPI served as the research subjects. Tests, surveys, and observations are the approaches used in this study to collect data. An observation sheet serves as the research tool, and it is assessed qualitatively. Additionally, the concept mastery test results, which are analyzed quantitatively, are supplied. The study's findings indicate that, when image-based student worksheets were used, biology learning outcomes in the nervous system of the classroom were improved, with 19% of students reaching the minimum completeness limit score. Similarly, in cycle I, the average result of the concept mastery test was 77, and 61% of students met the minimum completeness limit score. The average concept mastery score increased to 85 in Cycle II, and a greater proportion of students met the 92% minimum completion criteria.

Abstract

The curriculum continues to change but the way teachers teach in teaching science, especially contextual learning does not change. This study aims to see how far the new curriculum (merdeka curriculum) can support teachers in providing contextual learning and what kind of support teachers need to implement an independent curriculum. The research method used is a case study on the learning process in driving schools and K-13 schools. The results of the observations show that there is no difference between the way teachers teach in the driving schools and the curriculum schools. Thus, other support is needed to support teachers in teaching contextual learning such as special training on contextual learning, teacher competency training, and special training to increase teacher motivation.
