Analysis of Misconceptions in the Topic of Area and Circumference of a Circle: A Study on Grade 6A Students at SDIT Raudhatul Jannah.
No full textMathematics plays a crucial role as a foundation for the development of other sciences One of the topics that often triggers misconceptions among elementary school students is geometry, particularly the concept of circles. This study aims to map the forms of student misconceptions related to the concept of circles, identify their causes, and find effective solutions to address them. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach and was conducted at SDIT Raudhatul Jannah with Grade 6A students as the subjects. Data were collected through written tests, interviews, and observations. The findings reveal that misconceptions about the concept of circles include errors in applying formulas (confusion between area and circumference) and uncertainty in choosing the value of π (22/7 or 3.14). Students tend to memorize formulas without understanding their conceptual meanings, leading to frequent mistakes when solving problems. Moreover, students struggle to differentiate between circumference as the circular boundary length and area as the space within the circle. The lack of visual and concrete teaching aids exacerbates these misconceptions. To address these issues, a learning approach based on visual and manipulative tools is needed, such as using diagrams or circular objects, accompanied by discussions that explain the use of π values in specific contexts. This strategy is expected to help students develop a deeper understanding of the concepts. By employing a real-world contextual approach, student misconceptions can be minimized, thereby enhancing their comprehension of geometry, particularly the concept of circles, in a more holistic manner
Students' Misconceptions towards Fraction Material Reviewed from the Level of Problem Skills
No full textThis study aims to identify the types of misconceptions that occur in students in solving fraction problems. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with the research subjects being grade VI students of the 2024/2025 academic year at a school in Kosambi District, Tangerang Regency. The instruments used were written tests and interviews. The written test was in the form of questions about ordering fractions, while the interview aimed to explore the reasons behind the misconceptions made by students. The results of the study showed that the types of misconceptions that occurred were generalization, calculation, and notation misconceptions. These misconceptions were found in students with high, medium, and low ability levels. The analysis of the questions showed students' errors in ordering fractions based on their actual values, understanding the value of mixed fractions, and comparing fractions only based on the numerator or denominator without first equating the denominators. Factors causing misconceptions include lack of interest and motivation to learn, as well as ineffective learning methods. To overcome this misunderstanding, it is recommended that teachers provide a more in-depth explanation of the concept of fractions, use teaching aids, and relate the material to students' daily lives to make it more contextual

No full textDeforestation within the Taman Nasional Kerinci Seblat (TNKS) in Kerinci Regency is a serious problem that impacts the sustainability of the ecosystem and the social life of the surrounding community. As a conservation area, TNKS plays an important role in preserving biodiversity, regulating water management, and supporting the livelihoods of local communities. However, pressure from agricultural land use, settlement, and economic activities has led to rampant forest encroachment. This research was motivated by increasing forest degradation in the TNKS area, which poses a threat to environmental sustainability and social welfare. The purpose of this study is to analyze the environmental and social impacts of forest encroachment in the foothills of Mount Kerinci, Kerinci Regency. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with a field study approach through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. Data was obtained from the surrounding community, TNKS management officials, and supporting documents, then analyzed qualitatively with an emphasis on the cause-and-effect relationship between encroachment activities and their impacts. The results of the study show that the environmental impacts include loss of forest cover, declining water quality, increased soil erosion, reduced wildlife habitat, and increased risk of ecological disasters such as floods and landslides. Meanwhile, the social impacts that have emerged include increased conflict between the community and TNKS management, shifts in local cultural values, social inequality due to land disputes, and the community's economic dependence on illegal activities in the forest area. Thus, forest encroachment in TNKS not only threatens environmental sustainability but also causes complex social problems for the surrounding community

Integrating Islamic Family Law Into National Legal Systems: A Policy Analysis of Pancasila's Justice Value in Religious Court Administration
No full textThis study examines the integration of Islamic family law within Indonesia's national legal framework through the lens of Pancasila's justice values in religious court administration. As Indonesia's largest judicial institution handling Islamic family matters, religious courts face significant challenges in harmonizing Islamic legal principles with the constitutional foundation of Pancasila. Employing a quantitative research methodology, this study surveyed 284 stakeholders including religious court judges, legal practitioners, policymakers, and legal scholars across multiple jurisdictions to assess perceptions of Pancasila justice value implementation, institutional effectiveness, and integration challenges. Data were collected through structured questionnaires measuring five dimensions: understanding of Pancasila justice values, integration effectiveness, administrative performance, stakeholder satisfaction, and systemic challenges. Statistical analyses including descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, and correlation analyses revealed significant findings. Results indicate that 78.5% of respondents demonstrate high understanding of Pancasila values, yet only 64.2% perceive effective integration in court practices. Religious courts achieved a 96.45% case clearance rate in 2023, processing 603,512 cases, though substantial challenges persist in harmonizing religious and state law (71.8% agreement). The study concludes that while structural frameworks exist for integration, substantive implementation requires enhanced judicial capacity, clearer legislative guidelines, and stronger institutional mechanisms to realize Pancasila's justice principles within Islamic family law adjudicatio
Implementation of Family Counseling at the Family Service Center (PUSPAGA) and UPTD PPA: Efforts to Improve Family Resilience in Kendari City
No full textThe family, as the smallest social unit, plays a critical role in shaping individuals’ personality, values, and social competence, yet modern challenges such as marital conflict, communication breakdowns, and socio-economic pressures often disrupt household harmony. Family counseling services are thus essential to strengthen resilience and provide solutions to complex problems. This study examines the implementation of family counseling services at the Family Learning Center (PUSPAGA) and the Regional Technical Implementation Unit for the Protection of Women and Children (UPTD PPA) under the Department of Women’s Empowerment and Child Protection (DP3A) in Kendari City. Using a qualitative descriptive design, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving counselors and clients, and analyzed with Miles and Huberman’s interactive model, supported by triangulation to ensure credibility. The findings indicate that PUSPAGA provides structured services through registration, assessment, consultation, family visits, counseling, and referrals, supported by techniques such as attending, empathy, reflection, exploration, and questioning strategies. The theoretical foundations applied include Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT), which helps clients replace irrational with rational thoughts, and Adlerian theory, which emphasizes social interest and lifestyle modification. While PUSPAGA combines counseling with family education, UPTD PPA focuses on initial assessment and referral of severe cases such as domestic violence and sexual abuse to psychologists or legal authorities. The study concludes that both institutions complement each other in addressing family problems and recommends continuous counselor training, stronger collaboration with professional and legal stakeholders, the use of digital platforms to expand access, and the development of structured SOPs to enhance service consistency and impact
