Educational Comics Based-Local Folktales and Its Effects on Reading Literacy of Rural Primary School Students

Reading is a basic literacy that plays an important role in the intellectual development of students. Based on various surveys, it was identified that the reading competence of Indonesian students was very low. The research aims was to implement educative comics based on local folktale and examine its effect on increasing reading literacy of in rural rural primary school students. The research is a quasi-experimental design with pre-test-post-test non-equivalent control group design. The participants were 3rd grade elementary school students in rural Karanganyar Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. Sampling was done by purposive sampling and cluster random sampling technique. There were 58 students in the experimental group and 56 students in the control group from 2 different elementary schools, but their qualifications were both in the good category. In learning to read, the experimental group used educational comic books containing local folktales while the control group used texts containing local folktale. Reading literacy competency data was obtained through paper and pencil tests. The data obtained were analysed descriptively and inferentially using t-test. The results of the study prove that there is a significant effect of educational comics based on local folktale on students' reading literacy competence. Local folktale supported by images is suspected to facilitate the availability of context so that the substance of the text is easier to understand. Therefore, teachers are advised to use image support in learning to cover learning losses due to the pandemic, especially in rural schools which experience many obstacles in distance learning.

Foodborne Outbreak Investigation in Elementary School Students in Bantul, Yogyakarta, 2023

Bantul District Health Office received notification that 75 students in elementary school were sick with symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and dizziness after they consumed snacks from the school canteen. An epidemiological investigation was conducted to confirm the outbreak, identify additional cases, determine risk factors and causes, and recommend preventive measures. This investigation conducted active case finding followed by a retrospective cohort study. Individuals who experience one or more symptoms, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, dizziness, fever, and malaise after consuming snacks were defined as cases. Data was collected through direct interviews with students, teachers, staff, and food sellers. Samples of food and vomit were collected and sent to the health laboratory. Data were analyzed using chi-square and multiple binomial regression. There were 150 cases. Most cases were found in the female group (53.22%), 9-year-old group (55.32%), and third-grade students (65%). Dizziness (66.67%), vomiting (56.67%), and nausea (46%) were the most common symptoms. The epidemic curve was a common source, with incubation periods ranging from one to 26 hours. Meatballs were associated with the increased risk of becoming a case in this outbreak (aRR = 1.49; 95% CI = 1.22-1.81). The causative agent was suspected to be Salmonella spp, but the laboratory analysis results were inconclusive due to contamination. Potential risk factors were large storage in the refrigerator, insufficient reheating, and cross-contamination. Improvements in food safety monitoring for schools and food handlers, along with appropriate sampling by healthcare facilities, are required to control outbreaks.

While the results of the posttest after using LKPD reached an average of 84.50 with classical completeness reaching 100% and declared complete. Based on the pretest and posttest values, the gainscore value can be seen as 0.51 with a moderate effectiveness category. This shows that the use of literacy-based LKPD to improve high-level thinking skills has been effectively used by grade V students of SDN 101867 Payagambar, Batang Kuis District.

보드게임 활동이 초등학생의 다중지능 향상에 미치는 효과분석

The education of elementary school students promotes the overall development of children and induces a positive attitude toward learning. Board games that stimulate interest and motivation in learning have been widely used in recent years. In this study, a program is implemented for elementary school students attending after-school care centers to explore the effects on multiple intelligence using board games. As a result of verifying whether there is a difference in multiple intelligence between the experimental group and the control group after the board game, all areas were improved. However, in music intelligence and physical exercise intelligence, the improvement effect of the control group appeared. Therefore, other factors other than the effect of the board game must have worked. In other areas, there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups, demonstrating improved effectiveness through board game activities. In addition, by confirming that it is effective in maintaining and improving the strength intelligence in the experimental group, this study provides implications for the use of board games as a learning tool that induces children's interest and fun in the future.

The Influence of STEM-Based Digital Learning on 6C Skills of Elementary School Students

Abstract The integration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)-based digital learning has shown a significant impact on enhancing the 6C skills (character, citizenship, critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration, and communication) of elementary school students. This quasi-experimental study, involving 200 participants from primary schools, compared the efficacy of STEM-based digital learning against STEM-conventional methods in fostering these essential twenty-first-century skills. Data were collected through case study tests and analyzed to evaluate the differences in skill development between the two groups. The results indicate a noticeable improvement in the 6C skills among students engaged in STEM-based digital learning compared to those in STEM-conventional settings, with the former group achieving higher average scores across the skill set. These findings highlight the value of adopting STEM-based digital learning in elementary education to better prepare students with the competencies necessary for their future. This research underscores the positive influence of innovative learning models on developing critical life skills in elementary school students.

KORELASI PERILAKU HIDUP BERSIH DAN SEHAT DENGAN KECACINGAN PADA SISWA SEKOLAH DASAR DI KABUPATEN PROBOLINGGO

Background: Soil-transmitted worms are still a health problem in Probolinggo Regency, especially related to clean and healthy living behavior. Health and hygiene education is an effort to reduce worm transmission and infection. The purpose of this study was to identify clean and healthy living behaviors related to worms. Method: The study design was observational analytic with a Cross-Sectional Study approach. The population was elementary school students in Probolinggo Regency with a sample size of 607 students taken by cluster sampling with a single-stage method. Identification was carried out on clean and healthy living behaviors and the number of worm eggs in feces and soil. Data analysis used Chi Square with an alpha of 0.05. Results: The data showed that 96.4% of respondents were negative and 3.6% were positive with a distribution of worm eggs of 2.1% Ascaris lumbricoides, 1.3% Hookworm and 0.5% Trichuris trichiura with mild infection intensity. The results of the Chi Square test showed no relationship between washing hands before eating, washing hands after defecating, wearing footwear, and nail conditions with worms in students with p values of 0.748, 0.584, 0.550, 0.777, respectively. Conclusion: These results are due to the history of exposure and the body's immunity in overcoming parasite invasion. Long exposure to children with positive worms will make the parasite colony maintain a clean and healthy lifestyle. Conversely, low exposure and strong immunity keep children free from worm infections.
