Pengaruh Model Pembelajaran Project Based Learning (PJBL) Terhadap Motivasi Belajar Peserta Didik Kelas VIII pada Tema Uji Makanan
No full textThis study aims to analyze the effect of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model on the learning motivation of eighth-grade students regarding the food test topic. A quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design was employed, involving two classes: an experimental group implementing PjBL and a control group utilizing the direct instruction method. Data were collected through motivation questionnaires and observation sheets during the learning process. The results indicate that the implementation of PjBL significantly enhances student motivation, as evidenced by the difference in post-test mean scores, where the experimental group scored 114 compared to 103 in the control group. These findings are further supported by observation data, showing a mean score of 120 for the experimental group and 71 for the control group. This research contributes to the development of effective and relevant teaching methods in science education. In conclusion, the PjBL model serves as a viable alternative to foster student engagement and enthusiasm in learning.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh model pembelajaran Project Based Learning (PjBL) terhadap motivasi belajar peserta didik kelas VIII pada materi uji makanan.

The Role of Teachers and Parents in Overcoming Separation Anxiety in Early Childhood
No full textSeparation Anxiety Disorder (SAD) is an emotional problem often experienced in early childhood, especially when they first enter an educational environment. This condition can hinder the adaptation process, independence, and involvement of children in learning activities. Therefore, the role of teachers and parents is an important factor in helping children overcome separation anxiety. This study aims to describe the role of teachers and parents in overcoming SAD in early childhood at PAUD. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method because it allows researchers to explore in depth the behavior of children and the dynamics of interaction between children, teachers, and parents in a natural context. The research subject was one child at the Al-Hafidz Early Childhood Education Center in Cipocok Jaya, Serang City. Data collection techniques included observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The results of the study, based on observation and interviews, showed that the child experienced symptoms of SAD, such as crying when separated from parents, refusing to enter the classroom, and showing high emotional dependence. Teachers act as surrogate figures who provide a sense of security through play-based approaches, empathetic communication, and enjoyable learning strategies. Meanwhile, parents, especially mothers, play a role through permissive parenting patterns that influence the child's condition. Intensive collaboration between teachers and parents has a positive impact on improving the child's independence and adaptabilit
The Implementation of Individualized Learning Programs for Children with Special Needs
No full textEarly Childhood Education plays an essential role in supporting children’s overall development, including motor skills, particularly for children with special needs who have diverse developmental characteristics. Differences in developmental pace, language abilities, behavior, and social interaction require adaptive learning approaches that respond to individual needs. This study aims toescribe the implementation of the Individualized Learning Program (Program Pembelajaran Individual/PPI) in improving the fine motor skills of children with special needs at Integrated Islamic Kindergarten (Taman Kanak-Kanak Islam Terpadu/TKIT) Sahabat, East Jakarta. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study design. The subjects consisted of three children with special needs and two accompanying teachers. Data were collected through observations, in-depth interviews with teachers, the principal, and parents, as well as documentation of the learning program. The findings reveal that the PPI supports the development of children’s fine motor skills through activities such as threading, drawing, and pasting that are adjusted to each child’s developmental level. The use of varied learning media and individualized instructional strategies helps increase children’s motivation, confidence, and engagement in learning. Challenges in implementation include limited facilities and infrastructure and the need for continuous teacher professional development. Collaboration among teachers, parents, and the school supports the successful implementation of the program
Probability Generating Functions: Theory and Applications to Distribution Generation, Branching Processes and Queueing Model
No full textThe probability generating function (PGF) of a discrete random variable is a concise way to describe the corresponding probability distribution and facilitate analysis. This paper will revisit and explore certain key properties of the PGFs, focusing on structural properties, moment characterization and stability under convolution. Through applications to distribution generation, branching processes, and queueing models, PGFs are shown to provide clear insight into extinction probabilities and steady-state behavior. The results confirm that probability generating functions provide a coherent and useful framework for both theory and applications in discrete stochastic modelling
ASSESSMENT OF TOURISM FEATURES’ DEFICIENCIES AND TOURIST DEMAND OF DESTINATIONS IN THE NIGER DELTA, NIGERIA
No full textTourism is important for the growth and development of any economy, either national or regional, thus, it is essential to pay attention to the factors that motivate tourist demand for a destination. In the Niger Delta, policies on tourism are not well articulated and one of the consequences of this is that the recreational needs of both local and foreign tourists are not adequately met. In light of the foregoing, this study sought to investigate tourism features deficiencies and tourist level of demand for the destination in the Niger Delta, Nigeria. The Service Quality Theory (SQT) was the theoretical framework that guided the study. Twelve tourist destinations were chosen from six states that comprise south-south Niger Delta, inclusive of Ossosso and Igarra tourist destinations in Edo State, Rivotel hotel and Gordon Resort hotel in Delta State, Ox-Bow lake and peace park tourist destinations in Bayelsa State, Port Harcourt Zoo and Pleasure Park in Rivers state. Ibeno beach and Garden hotel Resort in Akwa-Ibom state, as well as the National Museum and Tinapa tourist destination in Cross River State. A total of 950 respondents across the 12 tourist destinations constituted the sample size for this study and primary data through the use of well-structured questionnaires were extracted from these respondents. The Crumbach Alpha method was used to measure the validity of the instrument, and result shows a strong positive reliability of the instrument. The data was analyzed first by using descriptive statistics while the multiple Regression technique was used to test the study hypothesis. The findings of the study revealed that there is significant difference among tourist destination in their deficiency of tourism features. The findings also revealed that features which were lacking in tourist destination but needed urgent provisions are variety of affordable food and drinks, horse and donkey ridding, standard zoo and museum, affordable and comfortable accommodation. Others include: student hostels, picnics, attractions and medical facilities. In light of these findings, the study recommended among others that tourist facilities, considered lacking should be adequately provided and tailored to cater for the diverse needs of tourists in destination centers in the Niger Delta

No full textThis community service activity aims to improve the knowledge, skills, and business readiness of the community through training in making basreng (shrimp cake) from selengek fish, a processed, value-added product. The target group is 20 coastal communities, particularly housewives. The activity was implemented through three stages: planning (problem identification and needs mapping), implementation (socialization, material provision, demonstrations, and practical assistance), and evaluation through observation and analysis of pre- and post-test results. The results showed improvements in participants' knowledge, processing skills, product quality, and business readiness after the training. In short, the training on making basreng from selengek fish has proven effective in increasing community capacity in processing local fishery products and has the potential to boost income and economic well-being sustainabl
Ecolinguistic study of the IKN discourse in global and national news media
Full text linkThis study aims to examine how news outlets construct discourse about Indonesia’s new capital (IKN) in North Penajam Paser, East Kalimantan. The researchers employed Stibbe's (2015) ecolinguistic framework. The problem lies in the contrasting views between stakeholders and indigenous communities of East Kalimantan toward such development. Therefore, this study bridges the gap by discovering how both parties defend their stances: “Is IKN an ideal project or not?” This study adopted a textual analysis technique, with relevant data collected from Al Jazeera, CNN, and Tempo.co between January 18, 2022, and March 19, 2025. The researchers used a note-taking technique and mapped each text onto Stibbe's (2015) ecolinguistic stories of ideology, framing, evaluation, and identity. Furthermore, the researchers classified each text based on modal verbs such as “should,” “must,” and “will,” adjectives such as “good” or “bad,” and phrasal nouns such as “environmental activists.” The results show that the story of evaluation appears more frequently, accentuating people’s negative responses, evidenced by terms such as “haunting,” “miserable lives,” and “shrinking.” The researchers affirm that the news media tend to report narratives of a conflict between neoliberal agendas (the government) and ecological sustainability (indigenous tribes of East Kalimantan)

Full text linkThis study aims to examine the effectiveness of implementing Qreatif Educative Virtual Lab in improving middle school students' conceptual understanding of temperature and heat. This study uses a quasi-experimental approach with a single-group pretest-posttest design. The research subjects consisted of 18 students from class VII A at a junior high school in Kemiri District, Purworejo Regency, in the 2025/2026 academic year. The research instrument was a 10-item multiple-choice test administered before and after the treatment. The data were analyzed using the N-Gain test to assess the increase in conceptual understanding and the paired t-test to test the difference in learning outcomes. The average student score increased from 43.8 to 65.5 with an N-Gain value of 0.376, which falls into the moderate category. The paired t-test showed a significant difference (p < 0.05). Thus, the use of the Qreatif Educative Virtual Lab proved to be effective in improving students' conceptual understanding, although further optimization in the learning process is still needed.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji efektivitas penerapan Qreatif Educative Virtual lab dalam meningkatkan pemahaman konseptual siswa sekolah menengah pada materi suhu dan kalor.

Full text linkPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kesesuaian antara perencanaan dalam bentuk modul ajar pembelajaran Bahasa Indonesia dengan capaian pembelajaran pada Kurikulum Merdeka Fase E di SMA Negeri 9 Kaur. Pendekatan penelitian yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif dengan metode studi kasus. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Analisis data mengikuti tahapan model Miles dan Huberman, yaitu reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan, dengan validitas data diperkuat melalui triangulasi sumber. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa modul pembelajaran Bahasa Indonesia di SMA Negeri 9 Kaur belum sepenuhnya sesuai dengan capaian pembelajaran Kurikulum Merdeka Fase E. Elemen menyimak menjadi yang paling sesuai karena seluruh komponen tujuan, materi, metode, media, dan langkah pembelajaran telah mendukung keterampilan evaluasi dan kreasi informasi dari teks lisan. Pada elemen menulis dan membaca, ditemukan kekurangan pada materi dan langkah pembelajaran yang belum melatih siswa secara langsung untuk mengalihwahanakan atau membandingkan teks. Elemen berbicara juga belum maksimal karena siswa hanya menyalin dan memainkan teks, tanpa menyusun dialog sendiri, serta minim penggunaan media praktik lisan
