Literature Study: Effectiveness of Character Education Programs in Elementary Schools

2025-03-22T08:28:14+07:00

Character education in elementary schools is an important element in forming a generation
that is not only academically intelligent, but also has high moral and ethical integrity. This study analyzes
the effectiveness of character education programs through literature studies, showing that the success
of the program is highly dependent on the involvement of teachers, parents, and the community. Although
many programs have been implemented, challenges in their implementation still exist, including teachers'
understanding of character education and limited resources. The habituation method has proven
effective in instilling character values in students. However, the gap between theory and practice is still
a problem, with many teachers feeling less able to implement the program effectively. To ensure the
effectiveness of character education programs, there needs to be measurable boundaries, such as
specific indicators that can be used to assess the success of implementation. This study recommends
the need for more integrated evaluation and development of character education programs on an
ongoing basis to ensure a positive impact on student personality development. It is hoped that the results
of this study can make a significant contribution to the development of education policies in Indonesia
and create a young generation with good character and responsibility towards society.

exploratory descriptive method with 5 students as participants The instruments used were diagnostic
tests and interview guidelines. Data collection was done through observation, interview and
documentation techniques. The data were then analyzed through reduction, presentation, and inference.
The results showed that overall the students understood the concept of stacked multiplication. Only a
few minor errors and a lack of accuracy in working on problems were found. However, it is still seen that
almost all the students have difficulties in stacked division, this is because the students do not
understand the concept of division, are weak in remembering multiplication, and tend to rush and lack
concentration when solving problems. Therefore, teachers should make sure that students understand
the prerequisites of the division operation, and provide lots of practice, different teaching methods to
help students understand the concept of division, and fun learning to arouse students' interest in learning
mathematics. Consistency and thoroughness in providing guidance and support are also essential to
overcome students' difficulties in solving division. With proper guidance and support, it is hoped that
students can overcome these difficulties and perform well in mathematics.

thinking ability based on self-efficacy level. The method used is descriptive qualitative with instruments
in the form of mathematical critical thinking ability test and self-efficacy questionnaire. The research
subjects were fifth grade students of SDN 2 Pakemitan. The results showed that students with high self
efficacy tend to have better mathematical critical thinking skills than students with low self-efficacy. This
study concluded that self-efficacy plays an important role in the development of mathematical critical
thinking skills. The implication is that a learning approach is needed that can increase students'
confidence in completing mathematical tasks to support the development of critical thinking skills.

Exploring Mathematical Literacy in 5th-Grade Elementary Students: A Case Study of Diverse Ability Levels

2025-03-22T08:28:27+07:00

This study aims to understand the mathematical literacy skills of elementary school students.
The case study method is involved in this study. The population of 5th-grade students was sampled using
purposive with students who have varying mathematical abilities (high, moderate, and low). The
instrument relies on a written test containing seven mathematical literacy questions adapted from
Wigati's thesis (2020). The analysis highlights the relationship between cumulative mathematical ability
scores and mathematical literacy. Students with high scores (SN) exhibit a good understanding of
mathematics, while those with low scores (NT) require a greater grasp of fundamental concepts. Another
student (AAA) shows higher mathematical literacy scores compared to cumulative mathematical scores,
indicating a potentially stronger theoretical understanding than practical application. Individual interviews
indicate that the material in the test questions had been previously studied by the research subjects. The
participants felt these questions were related to daily life. The three students used different arithmetic
operations to solve the questions and had a preference for questions using direct mathematical symbols.
This research attempts to identify factors influencing mathematical literacy among 5th-grade students
with the hope of contributing to the development of a more adaptive and inclusive mathematics
education. However, further research is needed for a broader generalization.

Writing is a very complex activity. One type of text that requires creative thinking skills in
writing is narrative text. In line with the objectives of the current Merdeka Curriculum, which is to realize
holistic and contextual learning where its application for students is to be able to strive to always think
creatively. The purpose of this study was to analyze the ability to write narrative essays of grade V
students. This study used qualitative descriptive with research subjects, namely 27 grade V students.
The data collection techniques used in this study were observation, interviews and documentation. The
results of the study showed that grade V students had diverse abilities as seen from the values obtained
and the mastery of different assessment aspect criteria. The highest aspect is in the background aspect
while the lowest is in the spelling aspect. The factors that make students difficult are lack of motivation
and good understanding. The solution implemented to overcome the difficulty of writing narrative essays
is to provide motivation through instilling a culture of literacy from an early age and using innovative
teaching materials to improve students' narrative writing skills.

The Influence of the Picture and Picture Model on Improving Narrative Essay Writing Skills in grade IV Students at Leuwigajah Mandiri 1 state Elementary Cchool Cimahi City

2025-03-22T08:28:29+07:00

This research was motivated by the low level of students' narrative essay writing
skills in Indonesian language subjects among fourth-grade elementary school students in
Cimahi City. The study examines the effectiveness of the Picture and Picture learning model
in improving the narrative essay writing skills of these students. This research employs an
experimental approach with a Quasi-Experimental design, specifically a pretest and posttest
only design. The population for this study consists of all fourth-grade students in the first
semester of the academic year. Data analysis, conducted using IBM SPSS Statistics Version
29, showed that the sample class data were both normally and homogeneously distributed,
as determined by the Shapiro-Wilk test. A hypothesis test using the t-test revealed a
statistically significant result, with the calculated t-value indicating a strong effect. The
significance value obtained from the t-test was well below the threshold for statistical
significance, confirming the rejection of the null hypothesis and acceptance of the alternative
hypothesis. These findings demonstrate that the Picture and Picture learning model is
effective in enhancing the narrative essay writing skills of fourth-grade elementary school
students for the 2024/2025 academic year.
