Aisyah Nur Fitri — 2023-11-30

In the world of education, the development of science and technology is very much needed. With the development of science and technology, the learning process will be easier to do anywhere and anytime. The role of teachers in the world of education, especially in facing the development of science and technology is very important. In order to create a pleasant teaching and learning atmosphere, teachers can use learning media in the teaching and learning process. One example of learning media that can be used is digital-based learning media. The method used in this research is the literature review method. Data in research is in the form of data from literature studies. The data sources used are obtained from various references related to research such as books, research journals, and guidebooks for using several digital platforms. The data analysis technique used is content analysis, namely by reviewing the information discussed, relating to each topic discussed, then mapping concepts in the form of comparisons of each research data. The results of this study are expected to contribute in making it easier for schools, teachers, and students to utilize several digital platforms issued by the Ministry of Education and Culture as learning media.

Aisyah Ika Shauman Ninta — 2024-08-30

Education plays an important role in human life to improve the quality and standard of living of the community, raise awareness of practical and critical thinking in solving problems. The curriculum that changes according to the conditions of the times will certainly make it easier for student to maximize the learning process. The curriculum currently applied is an independent curriculum which is a refinement of the 2013 currulum. This study aims to analyse the problems of implementing an independent curriculum. This study uses a descriptive analysis method, the subject in this study is the principal and teacher at SD Muhammadiyah Pahandut Palangkaraya, the data collection teachnique is through observation, interview and surveys. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the problems of implementing an independent curriculum are that they still do not fully undersrand the independent curriculum, this can be seen in: 1 Difficulty in formulating learning objectives to suit learning outcomes, 2. Difficulty in compiling teaching modules according to learning objectives, 3. Not activating learning accounts id, so there is a lack of acces to the independent teaching platform, 4. Have not done the initial assessment, 5. There is still confusion among educators about the Pancasila Student Strengthening Project.

Systematic Literature Review (SLR): Descriptive Analysis of Augmented Reality Learning Media on Mathematical Building Materials

Rizka Fauziah — 2023-11-30

Learning media technology that is suitable for elementary school students is in the form of visualization objects called Augmented Reality (AR) technology. Augmented Reality learning media is a learning media that combines the real world and the visual world, in the form of audio, 3D, which can see everything as if in a real form. The research method used by the author is Systematic Literature Review (SLR) whose data sources can be taken through scientific publications starting from 2018-2022. The results of this study are the average score of six journals, which is 85.46%. The highest original percentage value is in research that has been conducted by Mamluatul Husnia in 2020, and Fajar Dwi Mukti in 2019. The average results of these six journals had good results. This means that the Augmented Reality application is very well implemented in elementary school students, especially the subject of mathematics.

Devi Diafani Dishinta — 2023-11-30

The Pancasila Student Profile is a new learning reference in the Merdeka Belajar Curriculum, so teachers must use various kinds of learning media that can develop creativity and critical power for grade IV students. This study aims to intensify related to the Pancasila Student Profile itself. Then what are the impacts or implications resulting from this Pancasila Student Profile, especially the implications for students' personal resilience. Quantitative research with design one group control experiment. Data collection techniques using questionnaire, observation, and test instruments in the form of post-test pre-tests, sampling with saturated sampling with a total sample of 23 students. The results showed that the results of the application of the Pancasila Student Profile combined with the Augmented Reality application had very good results for student learning. Students who are given pre-test and post-test have much different results. When given the pre-test, the accumulated value is 78, after being given a pre-test, the author implements the AR application to find out if there are changes that occur in learning. However, after the implementation of the AR application and being given a post-test, the score of grade IV students rose until the accumulation reached 90. That is, it indicates that the application of the Pancasila Student Profile with six different indicators must be applied with a variety of learning that attracts the attention of students. So that students do not feel confused to understand learning based on the Pancasila Student Profile.

Differentiated Instruction Implementation in Mathematics: Fraction Material

Tintin Rustini — 2023-11-30

Each student has different abilities, preferences, and needs. Therefore, they require different learning processes. Experts believe that differentiated learning can prevent students from feeling frustrated or a sense of failure in their learning experience (Tomlinson, 2017). The differentiated learning system is one of the learning methods in the Merdeka Belajar curriculum and the Guru Penggerak program. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of applying the differentiated learning method in improving the learning outcomes of fourth-grade students at SDIT Bina Cendekia. This study used a descriptive qualitative method. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study concluded that the application of differentiated learning contributed positively to the improvement of students' mathematics learning outcomes.

Analysis of Students' Learning Difficulties in Solving AKM Numeracy Problems

Afifa Muzayana — 2023-11-30

Numeracy is one of the questions contained in the AKM, and students solving the problem have difficulty in the form of a story, judging from the results of the PISA study state that numeracy skills are relatively weak for Indonesian students, 79 countries that took the test and Indonesia is in the order of 72. The purpose of this study is to analyze the difficulties experienced by students in solving problems in the form of numeracy in AKM. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method. Observation and interviews are research techniques conducted by researchers. The results of the study were that students had difficulty in solving numeracy problems due to the understanding of concepts in numeracy that were considered difficult by students, especially in story problems, this was because numeracy problems in AKM in the form of HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Skill) so that students had difficulty, the class teacher was not scheduled to do AKM learning because too much material was discussed besides AKM. In addition, the assessment in AKM is in the form of competencies needed by students to be able to develop themselves in literacy and numeracy. The fact is that numeracy problems in AKM are still difficult for students to solve.

Nur Aini — 2023-11-30

PMR is a realistic approach to mathematics education developed in 1970 in the Netherlands. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of a realistic mathematics education approach on the learning outcomes of mathematical fractions at SD Karakater BangsaDepok. This research method is a quantitative descriptive with the chi-square hypothesis test. Students of class V and class III are objects of research to describe student activities, learning outcomes, and student responses after a realistic mathematics education approach. From the research conducted, the calculated chi-square is higher than the chi-square in table, so it can be concluded that Ho is rejected. In the sense that the realistic approach to mathematics has an appositive influence and impact on students' understanding.
