The Improvement of Students’ Mathematical Communication Ability and Learning Interest on Junior High School through The Application of Reciprocal Teaching

This research is an experiment which aims to examine improving the mathematical communication skills and interest in learning of junior high school students in set material by implementing the reciprocal teaching learning model. The problem behind this research is that students' mathematical communication skills and interest in learning in set material are still in the low category, so learning alternatives are needed that can develop students' mathematical communication skills and interest in learning. The research method used is Pre-Experimental with a one group pretest-posttest research design. The population in this study were all class VII students in one of the private junior high schools in Karawang Regency. The sample in this research was 25 students with a purposive sampling technique. The instrument used is a communication skills test and a non-test in the form of a learning interest questionnaire. Based on the analysis of the data obtained, it shows that students' mathematical communication skills after implementing the reciprocal teaching model are better, namely from 8.32 to 75.32 and students' interest in studying set material after using the reciprocal teaching model is 60% in the low interest category and 40% with the high category which was previously 32% in the very low category and 68% in the low interest category. Thus, it can be concluded that the application of the reciprocal teaching model can improve the mathematical communication skills and interest in learning of class VII SMP students in set material, although not optimally.

The Application of The Condition Construction Development Simulation Reflection (CCDSR) Learning Model Assisted by A Combination of Real-Virtual Experiments on Students' Science Process Skills on Static Fluid Material

The science process skills possessed by students are still in the low category. This is caused by a lack of learning activities that facilitate students to train and develop their existing science process skills in learning. This research aims to determine the improvement of science process skills through the application of the CCDSR learning model to static fluid material. The method used in this research is a quantitative method with a one group pretest posttest research design involving class XI MIPA students with a total of 31 participants. Data collection was carried out using scientific process skills test instruments and then analyzed using normality tests, homogeneity tests, hypothesis tests and N-Gain tests assisted by IBM SPSS version 29 software. Based on the results of data processing, the significance value of the normality test for the pretest was obtained at 0, 10 < 0.05, while for the posttest it was 0.086 > 0.05. Then, the homogeneity test has a significance value of 0.555 > 0.05, and the t test is <0.001. Meanwhile, the average increase in science process skills obtained from the N-Gain test was 0.62 in the medium category. Based on the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that applying the CCDSR learning model in learning can improve students' science process skills in static fluid material.

INFLUENCE OF THE NEARPOD EDUCATIONAL WEBSITE BASED ON THE PROBLEM BASED LEARNING MODEL ON CRITICAL THINKING ABILITY IN CLASS V ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SCIENCE LESSONS

This research aims to test the effect of using the Nearpod educational web based on Problem Based Learning on the critical thinking abilities of class V students at SDN Kembaran. The research method used is quantitative with a one group pretest-posttest research design. The research subjects involved 22 students in class V. The research instruments were an initial test (pretest) and a final test (posttest) which were used to measure critical thinking skills before and after the Nearpod problem-based learning intervention. Data collection was carried out by giving a test in the form of a description of 10 questions which had been tested for validity, reliability, level of difficulty and distinguishing power. Data analysis used descriptive statistical methods and inferential analysis with paired t-test to measure significant differences between pretest and posttest results. The research results showed an increase in the average pretest score of 60.2 while the posttest was 84. Based on the results of the normality test using the Pearson Shapiro Wilk correlation, it can be seen that the Pearson Correlation value obtained a pretest value of 0.527 and a posttest value of 0.548. Both mean they have a strong correlation and mean the data is normally distributed. The results of the correlation test between the pretest and posttest scores show that the probability is 0.000 < 0.50 (5% significance level), so Ho is rejected so it can be concluded that there is a relationship (correlation) between problem-based learning media nearpod and critical thinking skills.

Enhancing Fine Motor Skills and Fostering Creativity in Children through Plasticine-Based Activities

Some children have difficulty developing their creativity and motor skills. Children with fine motor problems may find it difficult to express their creativity. To overcome these problems, the play method using plasticine is one of the alternative solutions. Therefore, this study aims to explore the effect of plasticine play activities on improving fine motor skills and creativity in kindergarten-aged children. This study used a quantitative approach with the type of quasi experiment with a one group pretest posttest research design. This study only involved the experimental group. Data collection in this study used questionnaires in the form of fine motor skills instruments and creative thinking skills in children. This study involved children aged 5-6 years in group B as many as 60 students who were then selected using purposive sampling technique. In this study, the data were analyzed using paired samples t-test. The results showed that there was a significant increase in fine motor skills and creative thinking ability in children after being given treatment using the Plasticine-Based Activities method. This is evidenced by the significance value of 0.001 0.05. However, in this study, it is recommended that kindergarten educators and parents integrate plasticine play activities in the curriculum and daily activities of children. Additional support in the form of training for educators is also needed to maximize the benefits of using plasticine in developing children's skills.
