2024-02-25T03:03:26+07:00

The purpose of this article is to find out the importance of the STEM approach in learning Indonesian and explain the implementation of STEM in improving critical thinking skills at SMP Negeri 13 Surakarta. This research is a qualitative descriptive research, which describes the importance of developing a STEM approach. The subjects in this research were teachers and students of class VII A of SMP Negeri 13 Surakarta. Meanwhile, the object of this research is the application of the STEM approach to procedural text material. Based on the results of this research, the role of the STEM approach is to provide contextual learning, requiring students and teachers to work together to solve a problem using real innovation that can be realized in the form of thoughts or media. Students become more active in learning, have an increased sense of wanting to help each other, are more confident, and are able to respect others and themselves. Our first application of STEM was that the teacher presented teaching material using power point media. Second, the teacher asks students what they know about procedural texts from the media. Third, the teacher displays procedural text material including the meaning, purpose, elements, types and linguistic characteristics of procedural texts. Fourth, the teacher gives students the opportunity to come forward to explain the structure of the procedural text. Fifth, the teacher explains the steps for compiling procedural texts. Sixth, students discuss in groups to write procedure texts and present their group results.

2024-02-25T02:28:35+07:00

There are some problems in the learning process that indicate a lack of connection between the components of learning objectives, learning experience, and evaluation. Understanding by Design becomes a solution to overcome the lack of connection between the components. Understanding by Design adopts backward design which begins with determining learning objectives. The next stage is determining assessments aligned with the previously determined learning objectives. The final step is designing learning activities which must be aligned with the learning objectives. Therefore, the components of learning, learning objectives, learning experience, and evaluation, in Understanding by Design are interrelated with one another. The purpose of this research is to analyze lesson plan development using Understanding by Design in teaching report text in the English lesson for 11^th grade of SMK Negeri 2. This study used a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data collection was carried out through observation and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the development of the English lesson plan at SMK Negeri 2 Surakarta is in accordance with the Understanding by Design approach, which can be implemented by identifying desired outcomes, identifying evidence for assessment, and planning the learning process. The Understanding by Design approach, using backward design, assists teachers in developing lesson plans with interrelated components.

2024-02-26T05:21:46+07:00

Writing is an aspect in language skill that should be mastered well by every student. Writing is the main skill that is fundamental for every student in memorizing and explaining the knowledge and insights that they gain. In the academic field, writing has even become a benchmark for assessing and evaluating the achievement of learning outcomes. However, in practice there are a few students who have quite low writing skills. The teacher's role in providing a learning space that develops writing skills is very necessary. This research provides an in-depth analysis of the DIY (Do It Yourself) learning model which can help students in writing skills, especially in writing procedural texts. Creating a procedure text must be coherent, clear and effective so that readers can follow the steps correctly. Therefore, students are required to be able to write procedural texts well and correctly according to the structures and language features. This research used a qualitative descriptive analysis method based on case studies. The research objects were class VII C students at SMP N 4 Surakarta. The result of this study shows the DIY (Do It Yourself) learning model can help the students to write procedural texts easily using project based learning

Implementation of ESBN (Educational Serial Book Number) in Improving Access and Quality of Education

2024-02-27T15:58:34+07:00

Methods are the key to achieving progress and sustainable development in a society. However, the challenge of accessing quality education remains a global problem, especially in less developed regions. In an attempt to address this problem, the concept of ESBN (Educational Serial Book Number) has emerged as a potential solution. ESBN is a serial numbering system applied to educational materials, allowing education managers to more effectively record, track, and monitor educational resources.

This paper presents an overview of the concept, implementation, impact, and benefits of using ESBNs in improving accessibility and quality of education. Through the analysis of ESBN concepts, we explain how ESBN can improve the accessibility of education by facilitating a more equitable distribution of educational materials and easier online access. We are also exploring the impact of using ESBNs on the quality of educational materials through more effective monitoring and evaluation.

By implementing the ESBN concept effectively, it is expected to create a more inclusive, measurable, and quality educational environment for all individuals, thus encouraging the achievement of sustainable development goals in the field of education.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of using the ice breaking technique in enhancing motivation and performance of seventh-grade students in learning Indonesian language at SMP Negeri 13 Surakarta. Data collection methods employed include observation and documentation. Observation was actively conducted by the researcher to monitor the learning process and the utilization of ice breaking by teachers. Documentation techniques such as questionnaires, tests, field notes, and observation sheets were utilized to monitor students' learning motivation and the implementation of ice breaking. Data analysis was conducted both qualitative and quantitative. The subjects of the study included seventh-grade students and teachers implementing ice breaking. The research findings indicate a significant improvement in students' learning motivation following the implementation of ice breaking. In the first cycle, only 20 out of 45 students achieved high motivation scores, whereas in the second cycle, 90% of students attained very high motivation scores. The average student motivation score also increased to 84 in the second cycle. Ice breaking has brought about positive effects by enhancing students' enthusiasm and concentration, consequently improving their learning performance.
