Systematic Literature Review on Digital Technology in Primary School Learning (2020–2025)
Full text linkThe rapid development of digital technology has transformed learning practices in primary education. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of digital learning and identify key challenges in its implementation at the primary school level. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, ten empirical studies published between 2020 and 2025 were systematically selected and reviewed following the PRISMA protocol. The findings show that digital-based learning improves students\u27 academic outcomes by an average of 24.2% and enhances learning engagement, particularly when interactive media and digital platforms are integrated into instruction. However, several challenges persist, including limited device availability, inadequate digital infrastructure, and low teacher readiness in adopting technology-supported pedagogy. These barriers particularly affect schools in underserved areas and hinder the equitable implementation of digital learning. The study concludes that digital technology has strong potential to enhance learning effectiveness but requires strategic and context-sensitive integration. The implications highlight the need for blended learning–based curricula, equitable technological access, and continuous teacher professional development to support sustainable and inclusive digital learning in primary schools
An Analysis of Errors in the Indonesian Enhanced Spelling System (EYD) in Students’ Explanatory Writing
Full text linkWriting ability is an essential component of primary education, as it enables students to develop communication skills, critical thinking, and the capacity to express ideas effectively. This study aims to analyze errors in the use of the Indonesian Enhanced Spelling System (EYD) in explanatory text writing among fifth-grade students at SD Negeri Manyaran 01. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to objectively and systematically describe the observed phenomena. The research participants consisted of 28 students from class VB. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data trustworthiness was ensured through source triangulation, method triangulation, peer debriefing, and repeated reading of the data. The findings indicate that the most frequent errors involve the incorrect use of capital letters that do not comply with EYD conventions. These errors are attributed to students’ limited understanding of spelling rules, lack of regular writing practice, and low reading interest. The findings emphasize the importance of improving writing instruction strategies and strengthening language literacy at the primary level so that students can write accurately in accordance with standard Indonesian language conventions
HOTS Question Analysis in Elementary Mathematics: Focus on Fractions, Geometry, and Comparison Topics in 6th Grade
Full text linkThis study aims to determine the mathematical ability of sixth-grade students in solving Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) type mathematics problems. This study is a descriptive qualitative study. The study\u27s subjects were sixth-grade students from 3 elementary schools in Pekanbaru City. The methods used in this study include tests, interviews, and documentation. The test consisted of 15 HOTS-type mathematics verification questions. The test results were then explained and supported by interviews and student documentation. The results showed that students\u27 abilities to solve HOTS mathematics problems across three schools differed significantly. Category A schools had an average score of 49.5, which was in the high category. Category B schools (average 20.0, medium category) and Category C schools (average 17.6) showed abilities in Fractions, Geometry, and Comparison that were in the low category. From these results, it can be seen that students have different abilities in solving problems. From the perspective of problem description and solution, students have not fully used concepts and procedures to formulate and solve problems. From a communication perspective, students have not fully written their answers coherently or provided a solution to the problem
The Effect of Integrated Problem-Based Learning SDG Point 6 on Improving Sustainability Literacy of High School Students
Full text linkThis study aimed to examine the effect of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) integrated with SDG point 6 on students’ sustainability literacy related to water pollution. A quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent control group pretest–posttest design was employed involving two tenth-grade classes at a senior high school in Garut, selected through convenience sampling. The research instrument consisted of 15 essay questions measuring three aspects of sustainability literacy: knowledge, skills, and mindset. The instrument was validated by experts and demonstrated high reliability (Cronbach’s α = 0.92). Data were analyzed through normality and homogeneity tests followed by an Independent Samples T-test. The results indicated that there was no statistically significant difference in total post-test scores between the experimental class using SDG-integrated PBL and the control class using discovery learning (two-tailed Sig. = 0.07). However, the experimental class showed greater mean improvements, particularly in the skills and mindset aspects, compared to the control class. In conclusion, PBL integrated with SDG 6 shows a tendency to enhance students’ sustainability literacy, especially in terms of skills and mindset, although its overall effect was not statistically significant. The findings imply the need for better alignment between assessment instruments and learning contexts, student habituation to PBL, longer intervention periods, and further analyses to more sensitively evaluate instructional effectiveness
The Effectiveness of Learning Song Media on Learning Outcomes in the Science Food Chain
Full text linkLow science learning outcomes in elementary schools are often caused by conventional methods that are less interesting, so students are passive and have difficulty understanding abstract concepts. This study aims to measure the effectiveness of song media in improving science learning outcomes for fifth-grade students at SDN 1 Panca Jaya. This study employed a quantitative, quasi-experimental design with a sample of 38 students divided into two groups: an experimental group that used songs and a conventional control group. This study collected data through observation, tests, and documentation. The test was conducted twice: a pre-test and a post-test. Data analysis was conducted by calculating the N-Gain to assess improvements in student learning outcomes. The results showed that the average post-test and N-Gain of the experimental group were higher than the N-Gain of the control group, namely 0.85. This indicates that song media is effective in creating a fun learning atmosphere and facilitating understanding of the material. It was concluded that song media can be an effective learning strategy to improve student learning outcomes in science
