Abstract

This study seeks to examine the differences between the Value Clarification Technique (VCT) model, integrated with socioscientific issues through role-playing, and the more commonly used problem-based learning model in schools. Scientific literacy among elementary school students remains low, necessitating innovative teaching approaches. The research employed a quantitative, quasi-experimental design, specifically utilizing a non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest model. The sample consisted of 71 fifth-grade students, divided into two groups: the experimental group, which received the VCT-based intervention, and the control group, which followed the standard curriculum. Data were collected through pretest and posttest assessments, and hypothesis testing was performed using paired sample t-tests and independent sample t-tests via SPSS 2022. The results indicate that the VCT model, integrated with socioscientific issues through role-playing, significantly improves students' scientific literacy, particularly their ability to explain scientific phenomena. As a critical 21st-century competency, scientific literacy enables students to analyze information, articulate scientific concepts, and draw evidence-based conclusions from data.

Abstract

Differentiated learning is crucial for addressing student diversity and ensuring all students have equal opportunities to achieve their learning objectives. Therefore, it is essential that teachers understand and implement these strategies in the classroom. This study analyzes Islamic primary school (Madrasah Ibtidaiyah/MI) teachers' understanding of differentiated learning. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research involved 54 MI teachers (10 male and 44 female) from 34 MI schools in Babat Lamongan, East Java. Instruments included written tests and interviews. The written test featured a pre-test and post-test via the Quizizz application, while interviews followed the differentiated learning training. Data analysis combined quantitative and qualitative techniques. Quantitative results showed that the MI teachers' conceptual understanding, measured by the N-gain score, was 0.078, categorizing it as low. However, qualitative findings revealed that, post-training, MI teachers demonstrated a solid understanding of all indicators: explaining concepts, identifying characteristics, providing examples and non-examples, and applying differentiated learning strategies. The study concludes that training in differentiated learning significantly enhances teachers' understanding. Regular and consistent training is recommended to sustain and further develop teachers' expertise in this area.
